I'm excited to announce that PhilaFunk will be one of the sponsors for the upcoming Philly Sound Clash, a competition set up by the Philly Car Share. The top 12 Philly bands in the competition will be featured on an album that will be distributed for free on PhilaFunk.com and available in CD format in every Philly Car Share vehicle for any driver to listen to and take home for free. If you're a musician, sign up and represent:

The top 6 bands in the competition will compete at World Café Live on February 22nd, 2007. I'll see you there.

peace,

PhillyCarShare is a non-profit company that seeks to maximize the economic, environmental, and social benefits of reduced automobile dependence in the Philadelphia region through community-based car sharing. I am a big fan of the Philly Car Share because it makes it easy for people to do a good thing. The easiest way to get people to make socially beneficial decisions is to make the right decision also the most convenient one for them. That's what Philly Car Share is doing.
