It was my suggestion. I told them just to cover them up since they weren't there and then I got in the middle and they kneeled down so I could see. My sister got a pic with them and they had to stand on their tippy toes because she is 5'11". |

Shall we stick with the same thread for all the shows? Sounds sensible otherwise there'll be information in hundreds of different places. I'll start on Los Angeles:
Videos from Largo, Los Angeles, all with full intros:
20
Side
WDIAROM
Fran's pretty much got it sorted hasn't he? Brilliant songwriter, incredible voice and good comic timing! |

| That's the worst critic in the local SF newspaper , usually i never bother because he often doesn't get it . Normally he'll ask the band the most waste of time question like, " you like crunchy or smooth peanut butter ?" |

"After The Man Who, the music's sweet emotional turns were replaced by lyrical clichés and mundane melodies that the band continues to struggle with." - So why are Sing, Side, Closer and Love Will Come Through among the most popular Travis songs? Do your research properly stupid journalists.. |

First: Does someone care to talk about "Holiday" ? :)
Second: this article is shit! If he expected a fully planned concert, he should've seen the previous tour, rather than....I don't even write about that anymore. I was very disappointed in what he wrote.
He may not have liked it - but some things he wrote are just poorly researched. |

Yeah, he's a bit of an idiot. The fact he doesn't think much of Holiday really doesn't mean much, if he doesn't like Closer or Love Will Come Through.
Though, this is very interesting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqY37GX1vwQ&feature=player_embedded I'm guessing you uploaded this Nora. ;) Thank you. Anyway, he starts to say something very interesting at the end about the new song.
"we're going to end with a totally brand new song, the thing about this is right... don't build your hopes up because i mean, all these last songs will be the shittest ones of the night because it just goes like that... only joking, it might be amazing you never know, but i doubt it... that's the whole idea of this tour, we're going to play with great honesty the last thing..." I'm guessing he's about to say "the last thing we wrote". So Holiday may never be heard ever again if they didn't like it. Sounds as if Fran wasn't expecting much of a reaction. |

I did - but I didn't mean to break the copy right!!!!!!!!!!
I just did it so people who don't have the necessary software to watch'em can see them too. You know... Not to harm anyone. And if someone wants me to put them down I imeditely will - as soon as I found out how to...
And: This sond of a ...didn't understand anything: No seriously. He goes to this session - obviously without having been to the homepage -without having read the threads (what a good journalist should've done!) and then goes on about: how chaotic it was (which it fucking was supposed to be!! I mean I LOVE this familiar concerts- where ANYTHING can happen!) And I know most of the fans, if not all of them, love that too. And if he did mess up the chords or the lyrics! That's even more fun. If you want a perfect show, with no surprises whatsoever - go see Top of the pops (2001 excluded) where everything's played from CD. In fact - why does this guy even go and see a concert? I've been to so many concerts now im my life so far and Travis were teh best of them .Just because they actually care about the people! They do jokes with each other, with the fans, they talk to the fans, they listen to wishes (Only Molly knows for instance) they talk to you, they tell anecdotes,etc etc etc!)
I wonder why this guy didn't mention that the bass and the drums were too quiet ....it'd have actually fit his writing skills...
Man... |

no noooo
that is directed to whoever took the vids and is the owner of the homepage :), just so he knows I'm not an evil witch stealing his stuff :)
So the actual thanks should be going to that guy.
But thanks anyway.

| So has anybody recorded Holiday? If they decide that it is crap it would be nice to hear it at least once :P |
