Since discovering Travis in the summer of 99, I was itching to hear them live. Watching TV one day, I discovered much to my pleasure, that Travis were going to be touring Australia! Well, I made sure I got my tickets, and myself and a friend from uni went and saw them. My pal Nicki wasnt much of a fan, but once she got there and heard them, she was blown away. I was in awe, and from that day on, I swore never to miss another Travis gig in my city again... The show was absolutely amazing! The Man Who days with a bit of Good feeling thrown in... AMAZING!
We (me & my wife Hannah) had just emigrated from the UK in April 99 and were gagging for some decent music as we had not as yet discovered any decent Oz bands. I saw a poster near work that Travis were touring and bought tickets as soon as they came out. The gig was fantastic the Enmore is a great small and intimate venue. The boys really looked as through they were enjoying the tour and Fran kept taking pictures of the crowd. Think i might be in one!
Yes it was raining that night and after the gig whilst in the gents the roof collapsed and soaked me in rain water..oh the irony!
