It was back in 2001 when The invisible band came out and come to think about it, it was thanks to my dad (: "Sing" had become a massive hit here (i remember they would play it on Big Brother hahaha, i still watched it back then) and my dad loved it so much he bought the album. It was only a matter of days before i took hold of it ^^ I would go to sleep listening to it every night 'cause i thought (i still do) there was no way there could be a more peaceful band on earth.
I forgot about them for a few years (shame on me)..and someday this year i was at a record store when i saw The boy with no name :) you wouldn't believe it, but i didn't know it was a Travis' record that had recently come out..it just caught my attention and when i realized it was Travis i just bought it ^^ I fell back in love with them and just in case i was thinking of forgetting about them again, they decided to come here and give a show that has already become one of the best nights of my life.

Hey Michelle :)

Anyways. I started liking them probably during the summer of 99, I don't know.. after The Man Who came out. I thought they were so different from the other bands and they won a place in my musical heart. I LOVED The Invisible Band but I probably became a big fan when 12 Memories came out.

I kinda forgot about them as a band, I still listened to their music but I had no idea what had happened to them until I found out they were releasing a new album *shame on me*. Not losing track of them again

I've said ten thousand times lately, but I fell back in love with Travis and became a fan after seeing them live three weeks ago! I used to like them, but I was never a fan.

Same here! I lost them some years ago, and now that I've found them again I'm not letting them go! haha

Wow, thank you all for sharing your lovely stories! ^_^

Haha, once I started listening to Travis, my parents immediately asked who they were. I brought them with me to the concert last week, and they were probably being teenagers again. :P So I've made my whole family love Travis too.. XD

Hey Ana! ;)

A little off topic but I have to ask him something. Edu, are you the same Edu from Rosario who was looking all over the net for people to go with to the Yeah Festival?

Haha, my mom knows Travis thanks to the Closer video. My sister mimics Fran there and my mom loves it, so whenever I mention Travis she starts singing Closer :oP

My mother loooves Battleships... and my grandma sometimes sings "welcome in, welcome in", is very funny.

well... the first time that I listen Travis was in... mmm I don't know, maybe 1999 or 2000... My brother shows me "Turn"... I said "OMFG, who is this baaaand"... then I listen "Writing to reach you" and I said "this is the band of my life... I'm gonna listen until the end of my days"

Well... a lot of year has been, and I still listing Travis with the same emotion.... even more.

I've told this story before, but for the new boardies...

Our class studied the lyrics to Driftwood while we were doing poetry at school. I thought the song was quite good (for an English teacher's taste ;) ), and I bought The Man Who when I saw it cheap in Woolworths, loved it, and bought the rest over about the next year.
