[ledzep8251]

Rizzo!!! 

[kendraleedean]

travis is an amazing artist and singer. i think he sounds better in this version than the album version. just amazing....

[jcrm05]

Un genio total! de lo más grande que he escuchado.

[27419917]

the best song and the best mucisian on this fucking earth!

[MOBRUL3S666]

Love this song, such an underrated talent. Every time I put this song on, my system just doesn't seem to get loud enough.. anyone know who the drummer is in this vid? Total Bonham worthy drumming in my opinion... awesome tune.

[sheffy707]

annd it doesnt even have to do with sober or not- entirely. the passion in his music shows thru and thats what makes it so deep and fu**ing awesome!!!

[thepoozer]

genius

[paulkaiser]

Most underrated musician this century....It's a shame that because of his "marketability" or lack thereof, he's not promoted like he should be.....F'in shame... If you're reading this Travis,met some of the best and you're right in that class. Don't F it up! End of Line

[myownruin187]

This is my fav song from tavis, its an amazing somg, what a telented guy!! Its a dam shame what meth has done to him the fact hes able to make a great come back and not completly ruin his gift goes to show that no matter what drug someone abuses nothin can xtinguish the human spirit and will!!! Rock on travis!

[jmd11185]

@27419917 don't compare travis and eddie vedder. Vedder doesn't have the control on his voice that Travis does.

[knoxtaper]

Ray Rizzo, though he is no longer with DotN...

[Jimmythegent54]

ANYBODY KNOW THE DRUMMERS NAME? SOLID, I LIKE HIS TASTE

[Jimmythegent54]

ANYBODY KNOW THE DRUMMERS NAME? SOLID, I LIKE HIS TASTE

[27419917]

[nolanGGA]

[shatabrick]

The drummer is da shit!

[barbwire1269]

best freakin song ever....i love watching him play...there's nothing better than Days of the New LIVE...seriously mesmermizing

[shatabrick]

2:30 - 3:30 things get pretty intense...watch his fingers....

[shatabrick]

I don't know why, but this song makes my skin crawl and my hair stand up. And no I'm not high.

[barbwire1269]

@shatabrick LIVE will make you jump out of your skin and float around...seriously soooo bad ass. But i saw them twice last year and he didn't play it.

[junkyturd]

@shatabrick Same here, how weird! it kinda gets tears in my eyes too

[sugarfree2185]

@shatabrick  you don't know great music when u hear it

[EyesHaveMiles420]

@shatabrick Same here.

[snicklefritz1989]

[snicklefritz1989]

[82fury75]

badd fucking ass

[lakecityransom]

underrated song

[marclb]

@lakecityransom underated everything realy ! This is by far better then 95% of junk coming out

[thealleykid]

Saw Travis 2x live in NYC...First time w/ his whole band for the Red album tour @ The Mercury Lounge...& I hung w/ him for a couple hours talking about music & drinking... it was right after Layne Staley died & we just went on & on about Layne..I told him I thought the Green album was one of the best albums to come out in the last 15yrs. & the look in his eyes changed & he turned somewhat shy & timid!! He loves life & I will never forget hanging w/ him..I only wish I had brought my damn camera!

[Yuppnot]

@thealleykid dude that is freaking awesome i love the mercury lounge!

[hungjudas77]

this kid is fuckin' sick. i would love to crack a beer with him an talk music..

[pearldan]

hope hes doing better ...since i saw him on intervention..i was worried....nice to see that he has'nt lost an once of talent...wish

you all the best man! YOU DONT HAVE TO DIE TO BE A LEGEND!

[MrDeppness]

But you do have to lose your hair! hehe.

[breezeplayer800]

you`re right he was hot, but so was i then,lol

[Mahavishnu80]

join the club mate!

[pat4281]

dis mofo rocks, wats up wif the happy hour audience?

[SenorDonk25]

unreal

[asddful]

Rock on my hero, rock on.

[danno615]

he is still talented no matter what a true musician

[pyrowolfsbane]

they were one of the best bands to come out of Louisville, this is my favorite song by them. But this isn't my favorite version.

[jeffstowers]

hell yea this is that meff music

[metalloulou]

I'm shocked to see how Travis is right now ! he used to be a hottie before ! But still I like his music....

[laurann62289]

geez. i love this song.

but he looks horribe!

looks to me hes starting to go bald.

and hes not even old! hes in his late twentys.

he used to be such a hottie.

must be the drugs...to bad.

[NeurocideVIbeKILLa]

so what was he like...17 when he wrote this or..?

[63b187]

travis always has the worst audiences

[tastybedsore]

still fuckin rockin.........

[laydeezman217]

vocals are spot-fucking-on! AMAZING performance!

[yodamytwang]

god i love this song

[dowling1981]

Why don't you like it?

[Childinfaith]

what a crappy crowd

[looseground]

My favourite song from them. Great audio here. Hope Travis is doing ok now, cause we need his music around. Would like to invite everyone into this kind of music, with the pure 90's feel to it, to check my band Loose Ground. This is the kind of music we like and though we've just recorded our first EP now, we're kindda old school, cause that's where the real music is to us. Thanks&Peace.

[fanofkasey]

was his intervention the one where the cat started to drink the milk out of the cereal bowl, and He took some kind of think where they put him to sleep so he would have to go through withdrawl?

[thegoldenspiral]

Are you fucking retarded?

[jdg62269]

And the drums are mic'd perfect.

[jdg62269]

Great job FOH Engineer. I agree with you Talkingtent. What a dead crowd, maybe they are just fucking stunned...and stoned as to what they are witnessing and hearing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[talkingtent]

The audio is phenominal on this, why is the crowd so dull, I'd be screaming my head off if I saw Days of the New play this song.

[shawnheenan]

im not so sure intervention went well but isure hope it did cause we're all waiting for the purple album

[bloop3446]

wait is he still in the band

cuz i saw him on intervention ??

[shelbyied]

he is the band. writes pretty much all of every song by himself.

[LizzyBordom]

Travis is an amazing talent and this is one of the best songs ever. I sure hope he's doing better....he's got so much more to say with his music.

[fromundaphil]

It seems like this song really bombed in NC and SC. I freaking love it. The Planet in SC played it for about a week and havent played it since. I guess the other listeners didnt like it. But again I freaking loved it.

[Mirthless79]

hes a conceited/narcisistic/autistic fuck, but man can he play acoustic guitar!

[pyrodeath3x3]

lil harsh at the begining but atleast you had something good about him lol

[vardogr]

I had to laugh. I seen him in concert last night and he pretty much said the same thing about his attitude. But yes, he sure can play.

[bigboss25262]

Conceited? WTF.... how would you know that? He's justa troubled guy. Like the rest of us humans...

[GTRV35]

Definitely their best song

[JenBleedsMusic]

Great Song<3

[PANDECLARK]

Most talented guitarist and musician today.

Reminds me of a cross between Nick Drake and

Jim Morrison. good artists never get recognized unless its POP.

[Ilvil]

best song ever

[shawnheenan]

none the less travis is a fuckin musical genius he just needs to bring on the purple album i hope

[themetalchica]

i crack up every time the guys out in the audience fill in the missing "yeahs" and "all rights" -- too frickin' funny.

excellent video, and excellent performance. this is DOTN's best song, and Travis never disappoints. and he *was* sober here, as someone else pointed out. lastly, the man will always be the finest lookin' thing on stage, hair, no hair, or with a flurking horn coming outta' the middle of his head. period.

[Rcinch1]

If you go to the Days' MYSpace page, there is a video of Travis playing this song recently.

He sounds much better than he does in this video.

You can tell how much being sober makes a differance.

Thank God he's clean now!

[knoxtaper]

He was clean when he played this show in 2006....what's your point?

[Rcinch1]

He did not sound clean in this video.

I'd be surprised if he was.

[charlieboy27410]

saw him on "intervention" on AnE... wonder when that was.. hes ultra talented.. glad hes got his shit on track now.. at 16 opening for metallica and jerry catrell... at 16 i was selling hot dogs on a stick... wish i had a cam and mic.. i can jam "freak" in DD like no other.. besides him

[PlanetVampiredotcom]

I saw that show too (in VA), that was a loooong time ago. Good show though. It was right when Jerry Cantrell released his first solo CD.

[AgentOtacon]

@Rcinch1 being sober didnt write this music.. sex, drugs, rock n roll... god has nothing to do with it

[MisShapenChaos19]

he still sounds great for battling a drug addiction. I think he should cut his hair short tho.

thanks for posting this broski

[BeQuietAndDrive1624]

Yeah he does, It's a good thing that hes sober now. :)

[looseground]

This is my favourite DOTN song. Can't understand why is still such an underrated band. I Love this band! A good influence on my tastes and on my own band. If you have a little time, click on my (looseground) channel and check my band out. We're are starting and need opinions and suggestions. Thanks in advance. 90's influenced.

[ldenisep]

For starters, Travis Meeks is one of the most talented artists ever! He's strong, smart, and a master of his craft. He kicked the drugs, which takes more strength than most people could ever do. And as for his looks, he's beautiful. Losing his hair doesn't affect his music in the least. Thankfully he's not someone like Tommy Lee who needs his looks to carry him. Open your mind people and shut your mouth. He's back and more focused than ever. Give him the credit he deserves! Prepare for Purple!

[shawnheenan]

travis meeks is fuckin brilliant

[jcrm05]

Why are you talking about drugs or how he looks?

He is great, the song is beautiful and that is it!

Thanks for posting!

[jackel205]

i will like to see ato sign Days i think it would be a good fit for travis and possibly dave and travis could collaborate or just jam great acoustic players

[jackel205]

it doesnt work anymore coolest vid come back

[kalow94]

OMG he looks horrible i guess thats wat drugs will do 2 u im never doin them he used to be so cute

[jsnvst]

I saw him in Birmingham a couple of months back. He looked like he had been beaten with a stick. And yes, he is balding majorly.

'

[stepheng2288]

i'm just glad this guy didn't become the next layne staley.

great song!

[treedotn]

Dude...i was sittin next to you at this show. anyways...thanks for postin all the vids...I love DOTN...

[rastagirl1989]

I love this band and this song <3

[trulyurangel82]

he looks fuckin awful.

damn. dont do meth :(

[abaseraserhead]

i noticed that, too. is he balding?

[misfits0772]

i saw them perform at the mojo room. the drummer loves to space out a lot.

[cryogenics66]

Travis is good, no doubt about it. Meth almost sucked all his soul out. I hope he continues to record and play live gigs. I still listen to that first cd all the way through, I've worn it out. He plays and sings awsome, no one out there like him at all, he's an original.

[shawnheenan]

just the first cmon man the green and red cd are absolutely amazing

[cryogenics66]

no, I listen to those too. Red and Green meld together nicely. Believe me I know, this tune is great. I just happen to have yellow in the car right now lol and I'll play it over and over haha

[travismeeksisgod]

is taylor the only type he uses? because i think ive seen him using guilds before, and i cant seem to find a guitar with a cutaway like the hot looking one in the background.its beautiful...

[MitchNFitch]

AMAZING TALENT!

[alceron]

Amazing how many people slam him without taking into consideration exactly how difficult crystal is to quit..

and yes I am speaking from experience...

anyway dig the song....always have, reminds me of....interesting and better times.

[Metallic7Dust]

Anybody know what kind of acoustic he's playing?

[carvinuser127]

it's a an all koa model that taylor puts out

[dmpietz]

This song reminds me of my wife, who i still love, but we'll probably part ways

[areuugly]

This song always reminds me of a girl i really liked. We were on and off for two years, but i always felt like i gave it my all and she refused to get to know me. It was frustrating, but definitely a learning experience. This song is one of my favorites; simply amazing!!!!!!

[JPhinfan86]

All I can think of is how Travis looks exactly like he did during his episode of Intervention on A&E - - Meth is a bitch. The talent just seems lost.

[keithramirez]

Couldnt Have said it any better

[almanaze]

..waiting for " Days of the new IV"

Days of the New forever ¡¡¡¡

[GezaBlade]

dude, travis is balding, doesnt look too healthy. whatever it doesnt change the fact that he is awesome, but still, it must suck, i'm balding too and its really frustrating

[ronfake1]

Fear not.

Live, love, prosper.

If it really goes to hell, just date blind chicks.

LOL.

[JPhinfan86]

Methampetamine.

[GezaBlade]

yeah dude, frikin crystalizes undser your skin....thats why he's scratching maybe on other vids....

[stonescourt3]

dont worry, most chicks know that guys can't help balding ... its the personality that counts in the end anyway (and having a cute face doesn't hurt either) :)

[retarded83]

I love this band, and have since the beginning. Travis is truly a genius and never got his due, an amazing talent.

[1stMahatma]

The reason this band is not bigger is at the zenith of there growth Travis ran into a personal problem that gets a lot of people. They just disappeared. I remember late one night hearing Tantric and thinking I know that band. Where in the Hell is Travis. He is the talent.

[tokenit]

Without a doubt DOTN could have been an "Alice in Chains", "STP", "Pearl Jam" (comercially successful) For whatever reason, be it poor media coverage, insufficient live events, promotion and marketing...They never really made it "big".

I for one think this man, and his bands are incredible. Listen to Orange, Green, Red.. than get your hands on some live and bootlegs.

You will become a fan, and avid listener for life.

[miz666]

i love you Travis! One of my all time favorite songs!

[pepperfairchild]

why is this band not bigger than they are??? why almost zero radio support? why why why??? not commercialized enough i guess because this is just PURE TALENT here people!

[antalicus]

Travis Meeks needs to help write songs for other bands out there. He has to be one of he best song writers out there.

[pearldrummer1]

No doubt Travis is incredibly creative. Much more than cobain was.

[Firebrand1967]

DOTN are the best post grunge band to emerge from the 1990s. I believe Travis Meeks is indeed as lyrically savvy, creative and pognant as Kurt Cobain ever was...similar intense, deep brooding and comtemplative; Meeks deserves more acknowledgement than has received.

[leadfootcamaro]

Please...Travis Meeks is not God. He's only human. But perhaps a little more human than human! Obvisously talented and great live in concert! If hadn't for the drug addiction and bad advice on his career years ago, he'd been a world phenom selling out shows left and right. But that has past him by. I think he can be successful again, but it'll require significant support from promotion and management in the music industry (from those not stigmatized from early DOTN break-up).

[1stMahatma]

I play the guitar. I used to do meth like it might possibly become extinct the next day. But as high on myself as I get I can tell you I am no Travis Meeks. You just have not sat and listened to him. It is rare we see the kind of talent he possesses.

[yurayus]

why he has yet to became bigger than where he is now still baffles me... oh wait no it doesn't, like maynard hes too much for most (and im not even a big tool fan either). This music is so real you can taste it. This band in all of its cds has single handedly changed my views on what real music is. this man is not a singer, hes a musician. the CD red without a doubt is my favorite cd of all time. and this is my favorite band... ever

[ronpocalypse22]

i love days of the new and travis meeks.he is a fucking brilliant musician and i cant wait fot purple.every album has been good thus far

[seandeoliveira]

travis is the man smart and cool to talk to. he needs more credit for what he has done. im my books he is the most creative musican.

[bassface]

he's an awesome dude. met him at a show here last year. one of the coolest people i think i will ever meet.

[thepoozer]

Travis Meeks = God

[Marcoskoshino]

Travis Meeks = God

[Alsophocuss]

Travis Meeks = God

[niap22]

nice nice respect travis

and i hopefully wait for purple and please let it be like orange

[danny31457]

1 of the most underated musican ever i never see credit for what he does with his music and hes such a Genius

[victorstaley]

LAS CAGO LOCO, MEDIO TEMASO!!

[cowchux]

what an amazing musician gives you chills listening

[dropdeadjade]

Phenomenal. Simply phenomenal.

[lou1981]

Holly O'bray, i love you and i always will!!
