  • drunk'n idiots

  • And he's not autistic, he has Aspergers. So like I said I'm surprised he didn't jump in the crowd and beat the piss out of those assholes

  • This guy is a musical genius playing for a bunch of drunk idiots who can't shut the hell up. I don't blame him one bit. However the other guy on the mic was terrible.

  • wth is that dude's problem?!?

  • kinda looks like maynard a little

  • fucking assholes man shut the fuck up and let him do what he does asshole

  • Fuckers

  • Fuck all these jealous redneck pussies.

  • fucking hick assholes!

  • if I was there i would have beaten al lot of people's asses. Fucking retards really don't need to fuck with Travis. Travis Meeks is a god.

  • Was he at a teen dance or something ? Little kids in the front row must not have been older then 8 years old..were be the parents ? Why was he playing this gig anyways....hope he never goes trough this again, I would kill to be 6 feet from his performance.......kids are just moking and making idiots and doing what kids do best...being imature

  • Whoever is Travis' security should get punched in the face. They're idiots for allowing this to continue.

  • this performance is amazing!!!!!!! its like you can hear and feel his frustration

  • @laydeezman217  Agreed.

  • Wow, there some serious inbred rednecks in this place. That being said, if Travis would have gotten his head out of his ass BEFORE firing his band he wouldn't be forced to play shitholes like this. He was too young to handle the success. On top of that he says he's autistic. If that is true, he was self medicating and he's suddenly famous at 17yrs old. He just couldn't handle the fame and the cash. Anytime an addict gets cash like that, it's going to be a train wreck.

  • @OlSkoolBiker1369 Ummm hes playing in his hometown, so your calling him a redneck

  • @TheNationOfDarkRain no, hes not a redneck piece of shit the drunk people are

  • wow fuck indiana... bunch of stupid drunk fucks... why doesn't anyone tell them to shut the fuck up besides travis??? but most importantly, why doesn't travis smash the guitar on that dumbass's face?

  • @queefachoo Obviously they are all drunk, its not INDIANA's fault.

    They should of made the man leave BEFORE travis snaps, because oblivously, he was thinking. WHAT THE FUCK, ARE YOU DOING THE STAGE. He stayed melo for long, but i know personally how people in charlestown act when they are frunk, when they are sober, however, it is peaceful and a fine community.

  • these people are fuckin pathetic. complete disrespect, how was this even allowed to happen during a performance? who was the promoter? those people should've been tossed out.

  • charlestown. one of the true buttholes of the earth.

  • @kusaorange  Well no, DRUNK CHARLESTOWN CITIZENS are the true buttholes, not charlestown it self.

  • OMG how embarrassing! i would say travis is one of the most talented men in rock history...and he now plays shows like this!! a shadow of his former self....such a shame....those guys should have been beaten off stage...guess no security for what ever reason....just sad

  • @NewSunBlues You retard this was eight years ago while he was still big, "and now he plays shows like this", and "shadow of his former self", those statements don't apply. Plus this was in the middle of his meth days, he probably just needed a fix.

  • what the hell is he still playing shit gigs like this for??? talk about underappreciated.

  •  concert abortion

  • wow that musta took alot to not smash that guitar over that hillbillys head!! what an asshole

  • fucking city....crazy and junky people.

    travis is best artist of the world

  • I just wanna say thank you to the lady that shouted "we're here to here Travis not you!"

    THANK YOU!!!

  • @mikepunchyourfucface the song is called Fighting With Clay and it is from Red or Days 3

  • post the venue ... musicians stay the fuck away from this shithole and the people that go to it

  • @MattRomeroMusic Yeah and it makes people in Indiana look bad cause I live in Indiana and i love shit from the 90s lik AiC, Soundgarden, and this dude and a lot of others these dumb fuckers make us look bad and i live in southern indiana lol but these inbred fucks are like on the line right before kentucky and i wouldnt of played for those assholes.

  • He does not really snap in this video. If he did he would have smashed the guitar over that Fred Durst wannabe. That guy is just jealous that wigger metal is a dinosaur and someone from his own town with talent was actually successful.

  • please tell me the name of this song?! lol

  • Meeks should have snapped sooner.  The man displayed a hell of a lot of patience with these obnoxious, drunk goons.

  • I dont think we can blame the hicks in this video, they are just doing what dumb hicks do. If a lion kills a deer we dont blame the lion it is just doing whats in its nature. It is in the nature of these losers to be loud and drink beer, i think Travis should have avoided them like cracks in the sidewalk

  • I hate you damn rednecks,Sometimes I think someone forgets to shxxxx you down.Damn idiots.

  • Haha, that's hilarious. Anyone who has played shows knows how to deal with heckling. He just acts like an overpaid pompous douche bag. He just fed the fire by getting pissed off. That was comedy.

  • @bowvine hey dumbass, the guy got on stage and just started screaming, id say thats a step or two above heckling. Youre the douche bag you stupid fuck.

  • play freebird

  • bye bye $2000 guitar.

  • "TELL US ABOUT IT!", i remember watching this with you long ago

  • travis is great but has a drug and anger problem... anyone with as much time playing a he has should know how to handle these types of people... tell the fucker good job and move on

  • Where was security to get that asshole off the stage??? Someone tell me. The guy came to calm Travis down, but he couldn't throw the guy off stage. And he didnt have security cuz if he did, he wouldve had that douche in the front removed, at the beginning of the show. Give this man a fucking break.

  • i fuckin' hate punks like this....drunk and trying to get their time onstage.....get your own band! Travis, you rule!

  • someone has to know that dumb redneck fuck , post his info on here lets fuck him up show him a lesson in respect.

  • This is the single most disrespectful thing I have ever seen towards the greatest thing that has come out of Charlestown, IN and the people in question should be ashamed. Travis Rocks, much love.

  • The greatest thing to come out of Charlestown, IN and all these people can show is disrespect. And I definitely agree that they should shut their fucking mouths. Travis Rocks, much love.

  • If I would have been behind those fucks in the crowd something evil wouldve happened

  • wow ... Travis RoCks......

  • what a buncha fucking douche bags. No appreciation or respect. They dont deserve live entertainment.

  • Jesus said to them, "A prophet is honored everywhere except in his hometown and with his own people and in his own home."

  • Does anyone know the name of this song?

  • Fighting With Clay

  • @ohiogravel Fighting with my clay...great song!!!

  • Why didnt anyone snatch this prick off the stage? No respect freakin prat ass ednecks!!!

  • I blame the security for this.........why didn't they throw his ass off stage? That's what would have happend at any other show

  • Yeap

  • Travis Meeks has some serious guitar skills.

  • I think you all got it wrong. He did not snap and he did not freak out at all. He pretty much saluted the croud as he left. Have you people even been to a small show like this before??? He probably knows half the people there, it is his hometown.

  • Why didn't anyone control that kid...luckily I wasn't there...Not only that I feel it's disrespectful to even talk when an artsist is playing a show like this.....Obvious Travis was tweeking at the time....Travis I respect your talent, PLEASE get well my friend...we don't need to lose another Great musician to meth!

  • that taylor cost him about 3000 bucks. id find that kid in the parkin lot and beat his ass.

  • What a shame, to bust a good guitar like that. Those riffs were coming out sweet.

  • haha wow fuckin hill billies.. , them fucks talk funny. no offense to you funny talking midwesterners lol..

  • that fan is a fucking dickhead

  • That asshole in the red shorts thinks he's a rap star... at a friggin' Travis Meeks show!

    Man, the gene pool there was shallow and dirty.

  • 4:12 - 5:30 Absolute Sweet Riffs

  • What a damn shame. That had to be the worst crowd ever. Travis had to feel completely humiliated. It's a shame what's become of his life. Extremely talented...

  • Travis Meeks is just one of those incredibly gifted guitarist/singer/songwriter types. There are maybe a handful of people on the planet that can stitch chords together like that and give them that kinda punch. How he can sing and play those chord progressions at the same time is beyond me. He also got an amazing rock voice with excellent pitch and timing. The show was great, but the crowd sucked! I can't blame him for walking off the stage like he did here. I would have too.

  • Fucking rednecks.

    Rednecks and nothing are a bad combination. Rednecks and beer represents everything that makes me ashamed to be a white male.

    Travis is the greatest singer/songwriter of his generation and these fucking white trash fucktards can't even realize or appreciate they are in the presence of an all-time talent.

    Travis -- please stay clean and bring us more great songs.

  • Hey Redneck......I'm waiting...pain ensues!!!!

  • You have Travis Meeks on stage. And some tiny dick dumbass who wants to make people think he has a dick at all gets on the stage. I don't care what was happening, he should have been headlocked and his little dick redneck ass should have been taken off stage and had the neck of that guitar shoved up his ass. No talent people trying to make out like they are somebody.

  • i think it was just a horrible venue, with no audience control.

  • travis shouldve busted that guitar right over their fuckin heads!!

  • freakin redneck retards! they probably dont even know that he was in days of the new, or even half ass know who days of the new was! i wouldve given my left nut to have been at that show, and as far as those inbreed bastards running their mouths wouldve been eating through a straw for the rest of their pathetic life!!

  • Travis Meeks seems like such a humble guy for how brilliant and absolutely underrated his songs are. It's a shame that most people know Days of the New only for Touch, Peel, Stand, when it's probably not even in my top 5 songs on that album.

  • whole album is sick not just front end loaded....i love his last tracks..i would have loved to have been there and spoke with him....sweet tunes

  • hope i never get a croud like that. people are full of hate. although he could've had fun with it, they were drunks. lol

  • The guy that picked up the mic to sing should've been castrated on stage in front of everyone and torn apart Braveheart style. Later, his family finds out that he has $13,000 in debt because of a new tractor he bought the week prior. Among his collectibles, a Days of the New key chain was found with a receipt from Spencer's and a used tooth pick.

    Some people need to get shot in the mouth the VERY moment they say and do stupid shit cuz' it ought to teach people to STOP BEING FUCKING IDIOTS

  • I'll tell you right now if I would have been there those fucking losers jaws would have been broken more than once and and in more than one spot. In fact I would pay 2 grand just to have the opportunity to knock them the fuck out. Probably one of the most under rated artists of all time.

  • That is one hell of a guitar he just smashed.

  • Travis is a fucking musical prodigy and these fucking people in the audience should go fuck themselves!

  • thumbs up

  • I think every loser that went to highschool with Travis that was sitting in the principal's office for ditching while Days of the New was opening up for Metallica showed up that night, and let their jealousy fly in a display of douchebaggery that blows my mind.

  • god i fuckin hate hicks. toss them one of their siblings, Travis. then they'll all be too busy fuckin eachother to act retarded in ur spotlight

  • There's always that douchebag who gets on the stage like that, there's always someone who thinks they should be up on the stage and thinks they're better than the person on the stage, yet they suck

  • No offense to anyone one here, I saw days of the new open up for metallica in 99 in Vegas... again no disrespect but it was a very poor show. I like days of the new. Their hella good. I think this dude has seen better days but I agree that ass hole shouldv gotten beat. Any real fan wouldve got the fuck up and kicked the shit outa that guy.

  • Worlds most annoying audience EVER!!!

    I feel sorry for everyone who lives in that city and has to know or is related to those F-ing retards.

    Thos are the dudes that should be sent to die for Americas bullshit wars!

  • if only we could ship them all out

  • could anybody tell me the name of this song pls?

  • hey this song is called "fighting with clay" its the second track off the 3rd album.

  • thats just total disrespect. why would you harass someone like that.

  • some people hate it when someone other than themselves gets attention so they'll act out and try to bring the attention upon themselves .... that and the dude up front was a true piece of white trash shit livin in indiana.... what can you expect from him? i think he was tweekin out from a lack of dip and sistergina.

  • i would have just punched the guy in the face if i was travis

    poor guy

  • these people should learn to shut the fuck up and just listen to the music...i mean show some respect

  • i had the pleasure of seeing him in flint MI and it was a bad ass concert guys like him dont even need other musicians, the music is heavy as hell, especially being acoustic, i feel you could jam out to his music in a bar, i wish my bar had it on the jukebox , it would be the most played

  • You gotta dumb yourself down to cater to these morons. Play dueling banjos and talk about the last time you banged your sister. They love that shit. But for real, I hope Travis gets himself straight and is able to rock again one day. I grew up with his shit. Big inspiration to me. I even bought the yellow and green albums. I liked alot of the stuff on them too but its not stuff you can rock out in a bar. Good luck Trav.. Hope to hear more from you.

  • sorry i accidently hit spam instead of reply on your last comment...SORRY:O i wanted to reply and say nice comment.

  • On one hand, all those dumbasses need lobotomized. On the other, as a singer/band, you gotta have some crowd control. Obviously these worthless fucks were just wantin to be rowdy so you gotta play to them. Say stuff like GIT R DUN YEE HAW and they'd play along. If your tryin to just have a nice quiet soul searching artistic set... you can't play in front of these clowns. They aren't educated enough to get it.

  • That singing jackass looked like Fred Durst.

  • I was just watching 'intervention' about him. He looks REALLY healthy here. Was this concert before or after the meth thing? I don't like this vid-why are you complaining that he only played three songs? NONE of you would help the poor guy. Those stupid arses. You're lucky you even got three songs.

  • Bunch of fucking douchebags.

    Travis is sick as hell.

  • I highly respect travis' restraint

  • guy is sick on guitar

  • what a bunch of dicks

  • What is the name of this venue? It should be blacklisted by ALL musicians.

  • @csplendrig Charlestown 4-h Fair grounds ROFL.

  • how come when the douchebag runs on stage, nobody stops him. The guy only runs out to stop Travis banging his guitar around. And then afterward the douchebag keeps singing and everyone just lets him go? What kind of backwards shit hole is this?

  • Travis it takes one asshole to ruin a good gig. Keep up the great work man you have a ton of talent brother!!!

  • Travis,don t worry,you are legend,they are nobody...Just play your music,WE understand you!Respect man

  • He was being way too polite.

    This is his home town? Man they do not deserve him.

    Low life trash and proud to be that way.

    Bunch or human garbage, I hope they die soon and suffer.

    Sorry for the true fans, they were there too.

  • Travis, you need an agent man. You're playing in front of bunch of low lives.

  • Damn, I was hoping Travis was going to crack one of those dumb bastards in the head with his guitar.

  • I'll be sure to steer clear of this town/state. What a fucking joke. So much for appreciating live music.

    However I pose this: Who do you feel bad for? Travis? NO. The two douche nozzles in front, the fat redneck drinking beer, and the faggot guy singing on stage? YES, for they are forever immortalized on Youtube as fucking QUEERS. I hope you're happy, you fucking bitches. We laugh at you.

  • I wonder why Travis played a show that had NO security whatsoever, anyway?

  • I've seen these vibes at shows. I hate people that go to a show and are complete asses. Fuck that. I bet there were people at this show that were really digging the performance and the people around them ruined it... its so disrespectful!

  • ya know people tend to think that fame comes in heavenly waves of glory and happiness. The reality is truly demonstrated here. The lonliness, the hard work that gets withered away with time, the fans turning on you when you change the music, the fall and the eventual exploitation of your failure. I don't blame him for doing what he did. it's perhaps a cold reality of the business.

  • that wasnt even a freak out , the people at the show were dicks I would have gotten way more pissed , poor guy

  • Just goes to show how stupid people are. This is why I no longer go to concerts. It's not worth paying 40-60 dollars ( I know this one was free) to see a show squished between a bunch of drunkin hicks who you know are't going to remember the show the next night when they finally wake up in a pool of their own vomit and urin. Thank God for people recording these events and putting them on youtube.

  • Remember in high school, some of the kids were just a piece of sh*t, with a hollow soul and didn't take a stand on anything? Those are the people in this audience. Look at the guy goofing at the camera, his short-haired friend, and that fat slob drinking beer. No higher moral purpose or redeeming value at all.

  • That's sick.

  • dumb fucking hicks were too stupid to recognize the art they were witnessing...sickening

  • I don't understand people. They pay to go to a show to see a good musician and then fuck it up for everybody else. What kind of mental stability is that? It makes no sense.

  • that would never fly here.

    home boy would've been tazed and knocked out before he got 1 foot on the stage.

    stupid hicks.

  • what song is this?

  • fighting with my clay, its from the red album (3rd album), i figured someone with the name of "daysofthenewfan3" would know.

  • yeah i already found out what that song was called awhile ago.. thanks for the info though.

  • wow maby if drunk fatasses wernt jackasses to him maby he wouldnt freak out on stage. id like to take a shit on that audience

  • travis is amazing, why didn't these dudes get kicked out?

  • wow, i think he only kept his cool cuz of the lil boy in the front. Other than that this guy wouldve had a concussion or two!

  • I remember this night, We waited for 6 hours until Travis got to play. But from what i recall, It was just about 4 people who created all that trouble. I remember everyone else just wanted to see Travis. everyone was pissed at those guys. Especially when Travis got mad and stopped playing. So don't be mad at the people of Charleston. it was just those jackasses.

  • where was security???

  • assholes are everywhere...they don't have any talent so they fuck with people who do. fuck them all.

  • "crowd"

  • wow, what an awesome song!! is this a song he recorded on an alblum? if so, anybody know which alblum? i gotta have it.. btw...i think i wouldve busted some drunk bastards heads that night if i was in the crown!!

  • it's on the red album... it's my personal favorite

  • Those idiots! Who are they? How cold they behave like that? My God, Travis Meeks.

  • I'm sorry, but if you think you can play/write better music than Travis Meeks, by all means let me hear.

  • that guy heckling travis should have been strung up by his balls in a thorny bush

  • He's dealt with these people his entire life. This was in his home town of Charlestown. I grew up there and trust me it isn't a great place to be from.

  • What a shame. I would love to see Travis Meeks live. People like that should be sterilized.

  • It would have been funny if he would have kicked the shit out of that dumb fucking redneck on the stage. I hate rednecks. People should be allowed to shoot them and not go to jail, the world would definitely be a much, much, much better place, with out stupid hicks. You LOST the civil war you dumb fucking rednecks, GET OVER IT! Fucking retard inbreed hicks.Travis Meeks is a good guitar player.

  • Are you kidding? Are you bringing the south into this? Did anyone in Indiana lose the civil war? Check your geography book. This has nothing to do with that. There's trash everywhere. I've seen pieces of crap like this in every state I've been in. I've also seen kick ass crowds that love music in every state I've been in. Keep the ignorant civil war crap to yourself.

  • No you're the one that doesn't get it. I live in a small town in Florida and there's dumb fucking rednecks everywhere with their stupid bumper stickers and t shirt saying the south will rise again. They don't get it that they lost the civil war. Why because they are dumb fucking hicks. The behavior of the crowd seems to be just like that of stupid rednecks that somehow think they won the civil war, why do they think that because they are STUPID which also explains why they act like assholes.

  • Maybe you better move to Miami. Sure aint no rednecks down there!

  • Thats where I was originally from before my parents decided to move from the city due to crime. I was only 8 at the time, so I didn't have a say so. Miami has it's problems too. I cant decide which is worse asshole rednecks or other haters. Actually I hate all the haters.

  • it doesnt sound like a big crowd, and with a small crowd...dickheads stand out so much more..

    what a waste of a concert so many people would love to see and would pay alot more respect to...

  • those people are soo disrespectful.... that pissed me off watchin this.. they should have been escorted out.

  • A video of that guy in the front row being dimembered and gutted over a 24 hour period would be nice to see. Or having hot bleach poured down his throat and nostrils. OR---having crushed glass slowly poured into his mouth.

  • this shit is epic...the pointless rednecks that could be replaced in a heartbeat feeding him ...

    its awesome...they dont understand greatness when its in front of them. They should shut up and listen.

  • i feel sorry for travis..he must been through a hard life. its not easy for him. that stupid bastard was lucky the kapok didn't get stuck in his head!

  • i live in charlestown and i think i know most of those people and they are hicks they all try 2 act like there larry the cable guy but not all people in charlestown are hicks... just most of them and if i was travis i would of kicked that guys ass!

  • I found a radio interview with him on wikipedia, this guy is as real as they get.

  • fucking hick retards pieces of shit!!!

  • The words right from my mouth. Thanks.

  • ur welcome, im normally not a violent guy but i would have slammed my guitar on that dude's head if i were travis that night...

  • Me neither, I'm not a fan of violence, per se. However, these hicks were antagonizing beyond the tact of kindergarten children.  I applaud Travis for his restraint; more importantly, I really do hope he was paid for this show.

  • Those bastards. Assholes. Travis. You should bave killed them. You wouldn't be arested. Everyone would look for you to give a medal.

  • On second thoughts, I'd kill the audience. (Oh, yeah, beginning with the idiot that tries to sing on stage). It would be a benefit for Human kind.

  • Wow. What a bunch of retards.

  • What a beautiful voice & man this guy is sexy.

  • charleston, IN for you.

  • Man, that guitar probably cost more than my car!

    It's a shame that had to happen.

  • The ending should have been different. It should have ended with Travis breaking his guitar over the dudes head.  Now that's rock and roll.

  • i seemed to have made a mistake. turns out i was wrong about his hometown. it is in Charlston, In. anyhow those assholes that were running their mouth should have had their heads knocked around!!

  • i would have punched that fat fuck in his mouth

  • he's from louisville not charleston indiana

  • Why didn't someone kill that drunk ass. Travis should have broken the guitar over the idiots head.

  • I'd snap too if I had to sit in front of a drunk ass audience like that.I've listened one minute and I am already annoyed.

  • i'm surprised he stayed up there as long as he did. what a bunch of fags.

  • these drunk redneck motherfuckers wouldnt know good music if it slapped them in the face. which it sort of did right there. i would have actually paid money to see that gig. drunk fags

  • i wulda smashed that fool with my guitar if i was travis!!!

  • rock on travis u da shit!!!!

  • why is there always gotta be some dumb drunk ass hole in every crowd
