David Ford - The Gentleman's Box


UPDATE: Bidding has now closed on the Gentleman's box. 

Certain members of Bobbysix.com have shared a stage and a tourbus with English singer/songwriter, David Ford, from time to time. The man is family to us. However, even were he not, we still firmly believe him to be one of the best live performers of his generation.

If you are a fan of the Ford, then you will certainly be interested in The Gentleman's Box. Essentially, it is an all-encompassing collection of David Ford products, releases and memorabilia from 2004 until, well, right now. From the original hat and suit, through Ford’s notebooks and promo & demo versions of recordings and albums, the ‘001’ copy of the Let The Hard Times Roll special edition album, to the originals of Ford’s album art work ideas, album ‘mastering – red book’ CDs and a copy of the original, pre I Sincerely Apologise, home demos CDr, it's all in one fuck-off great big suitcase. If it’s not in there then it no longer exists, or maybe never did.
 
The Gentleman’s Box is currently being auctioned here and you can bid for this until 7.30pm (UK time) on 30th November 2011. If the winning bidder is UK-based, Ford will personally deliver it and might even take you for a beer as well. Depending on the winning bid, that offer may even extend to Mainland Europe and North America. You can bid here now.
