The social networking bubble continues with a website (in beta) that organizes underground house shows for fans and musicians. Free social networks “monetize” only when they scale up to enormous, almost unreasonable size. What happens when the model is applied to something intrinsically small, like someone’s single family home?
In honor of Lance Amstrong we at Common Folk are declaring it Steroid and Blood Doping Awareness month as such we ask you to don your brown ribbon and show support for getting that extra edge to put you on the top of your game.
Steroid and Blood Doping Awareness begins with you.
As Thos pointed out P.O.S. just released “We Don’t Even Live Here”
and already he’s got a Common Folk Collective song of the week. “Fuck Your Stuff” has the first reference to Christopher Hitchens

Listen , eh, my whole crew’s on some shit
Scuffing up your Nikes
Spittin’ on your whip
Kicking out your DJ
Rock it, then we dip
We don’t watch the replay
Who doesn’t like a down ass tatted up mall rat with a dripping triple scoop ice cream cone? Cop a print at Rik Lee’s shop and make her yours. On paper at least.

In the third and final debate there was, again, a nostalgia for the days when the U.S. manufactured Tupperware and typewriters — those wonderful days of 12 hour shifts and a company-owned home only blocks away from the factory. Never mind that no one in the U.S. would contemplate a Foxconn job and that soon, very soon, 3D printing technology is going to make large scale manufacturing obsolete. Also, Master Lock is “insourcing.”
