New video posted!

A new video, of Martha and her band performing "Bleeding All Over You" when power to the sound-system suddenly goes out, is available for viewing. The sound problem happened near the beginning of the set at Colston Hall, in Bristol, England, on October 20, 2008. To the crowd's delight, Martha then performed two songs unplugged.
