20070213_davidford.jpgIf alt pop-rock is your fancy then test your luck and share a pinch of your creativity... and win a pair of tickets to check out the visiting UK singer/songwriter David Ford.

He probably left her and disappeared for a while, with her car and all her money :p

More like he lied to her about the single-take nature of his videos.

@ Aaron LOL

"Go to Hell" looks like one take to me, as does "State of the Union".

There's a glitch/jump thing in State where a skilled editor could make a second take fit seamlessly. I'm not saying that's what happened, but it's very doable. See also: Children of Men.

Thank you Jerrold! My friend and I enjoyed ourselves very much and thought David put on a fantastic show. I know most were there to see Ingrid Michaelson but we thought his was the performance of the night by a mile.
