  • I seriously would have walked up to that guy that got on stage and broke his face apart. I don't put up with that shit, especially when at a show. Where were the bouncers? Fuck rednecks.

  • stupid fucks!

    

  • What is with that guys hair cut that approaches the camera singing. I swear I don't understand

    why all guys where their hair so short now. I can't do it. ever.

  • welcome home

  • Very disrespectful... I would give anything to be at a Travis Meeks live show.. Some people just dont appreciate good music... ugh!

  • well ill never get that 4.13 miuntes baCC

  • Many a great musicians hated the idiots in their hometown.

  • I would have stopped playing long before that!! What idiots!!!

  • I live 10 minutes from Charleston. Why didn't I know he played shows there?

    

  • Why does security (or was that just a guy?) show up AFTER he smashes his guitar? I would have been sooo mad to have to listen to some a-hole when I came to see Travis!!!

  • No respect. One of the reasons why alcohol is worse than weed.

  • What a bunch of disrespectful assholes.

  • Where was security? Stupid fucks...

  • wow someone needs to go buy that kid an ear FOR MUSIC stupid redneck piece of crap

  • I agree! He should have cracked it over those rednecks thick heads!

  • Hah! Travis definitely showed some character by not cracking that guitar over someone's head....lol.. hey, someone said that already... heh. Well, that's fuckin right. Gotta hand it to the man.

  • Would have been nice to have been there lol. From that camera angle, it would have been funny as hell to see me beat the fuck out of that drunk dumb shit.

    But for real, that went on way to long. No musician should go through that with people who love music, or even play themselves, in the crowd. That was an ignorant man.

  • they didn't kick those motherfucking hecklers out why?? ruining the show! What the fuck? I would have hit someone!

  • Its dicks like that which really give rednecks a bad name and why so many people say they should stop their trailer inbreeding.

  • After the show, the drunk hicks got into their unnecessarily large F-500000000 diesel trucks, cranked up the Jason Aldean and jerked each other off, thinkin they were the shit. Travis held himself back. I would of hit the dumb ass on the stage with the guitar.

  • ..................... I feel even worse knowing not just that I'll never see Travis live but also that dumb fucks like those drunk rednecks got to. :( :( :(

  • this is really sad and upsetting. i feel horrible for travis because that must've been very embarrassing and tough. charleston, indiana seems like a shitty place from the looks of this video.

  • I'm a musician too and that would have annoyed me just the same. I thought he held his cool just fine and have no problem with his reaction.

  • that crowd wasn't real, they are all a bunch of fucking slaves

  • @razorbak42O holly fuck that was the shit LMFAO. ur so right.

  • I don't think he snapped at all. He kept his cool, if you ask me. If I was performing on that stage, I would have murdered half the crowd.

  • Don't know what it is with guitarist's, anger & smashing guitar's but I've smashed three so far in momentary madness over the years. It's better than el cabomb'sss, however you spell it.

  • Where the fuck is security? Bouncer? Nobody? Fucking Travis should be left alone and do his thing.

  • Fuckin Fred Durst wannabe.

  • Fucking red neck hick motherfuckers!!! No fucking respect...why the hell wasn't anyone at that shithole venue doing something about the dumb motherfucker up on stage??? Assholes.... what a bunch of ignorant fucks! they are a really sad example of humans...more like animals! ROCK ON TRAVIS!!!! love ya

  • unbelievable! Those guys were dicks!

  • Why can't people ever behave when Travis is playing?

  • Man, look at all those hillbillys that will live out their entire lives not knowing shit about nothing. Failed human beings... I feel so helpless sitting here watching this.. Every one of his shows I went too, shit like this would never happen. there would of been blood...

  • I want to fucking hang every one of those disrespectful fuck by their necks. I hope they die from cancer. FUCK THEM.

  • What i would do to be there that night.

    i would have knocked each one of those embred fucks for disrespecting the god of acoustic guitar like that

  • I know a town where people are running

    Away from life - it seems always funny

    They think they are smart

    Don't doubt what they say

    Scared of a change

    Existing only

    To bring me down

  • @zealberg Is that from a song or is it original? I like it

  • indiana, i am sad for you

  • I'm glad I didn't know about this show. I may have attended.

  • travis should have knocked it over that dudes head!! lol

  • @toxicitysugarbabe Why? To act like them? He played it just right. He took out his anger without inciting more anger. He destroyed his guitar and called it "rock and roll", when in reality it was taking out frustration. Plus, hitting those white trash rednecks would have only caused him to go to jail. 

  • travis,you should woop some that ol'country ass brother.!

  • I felt so sorry for Travis. I can't believe he kept his cool. I do not believe I could of.

  • Travis was a very patient man here, i bet if he was still on Meth when he did this show, that guitar would have cracked some skulls.

  • Just a bunch of Indiana rednecks that are pissed they never made anything of themselves.

  • FUCK this bitches!! where are the truly fans who will kick them fuckin asses instead of recordin that thing???

    I'm really pissed off :/

  • Travis, you are a hero. I would snap the guitar in the head of the drunk jerk.

  • he should've broken over his head!

  • travis if you EVER have to deal with them fukers again ...gimme a yell...i got a 12 gauge with thier name on it

  • What a pack of dumb hicks!! Ruining it for everyone! Why doesnt the crowd tell the to shut the fuck up? Thats when bouncers become handy. Some big motherfuckers to curl them up and get rid of them. Respect to Travis. Now clean up your act and release some more fantastic music.

  • Thats fuckin bullshit someone should have gave dude a beat down I sure as fuck would have if I couldn't enjoy Travis's music I wouldn't care if I got thrown out any way!!!

  • im surprised he didnt beat the living crap out of those guys. he's the real man for keeping his cool. except for the smashing of the guitar.

  • Wow...a very talented musician in front of a meth-buzzed "fan" group that took control of the gig three songs in....for One, it is probably every musicians nightmare! Two, the irony of his own addictions that probably manifested in the crowd at this show.

  • fuck them travis there not worth your talent. we met a decade ago when you first started out, we did shots a a big bar in toledo before a gig you had there. your a awesome musician. and your a better man then any fat asshole that thinks is somebody special and trys to talk shit. dont let this memory bother you .

  • man what a horrible crowd! i am definitely not an advocate for the act of guitar smashing (an act that usually angers me) , but in his position, i would have rightly smacked that dude in the head with it.

  • dude i would smash on as many fuckers mouthin as i could. i FUCKING HATE RACISM AGAINST ANYTHING AND I HATE REDNECKS

  • @HohoCreampie It was at a Fairgrounds, NOT some hole in the wasll bar.

  • This guy is so F-ing talented. I would have choked the punk on stage until he shit himself. I hope these morons died on the way home from this concert. I would have left too, cuz if he would have went postal, they could just sue him. If some random fan that wanted to enjoy the rest of the show (me) just happened to shank the fat bastard in the front and stuff him into a trash can, maybe the show could have went on.

  • Wow these people are so disrespectful... omg... how can you do that to someone who is playing songs for you?!?

  • Whats the song he was trying to play after the Hillbilly said"shuv it up yo ass" plz tell me!?

  • I love the words you put on it. Makes it funnier :P

  • Yeah, I would have busted that shit over somebody's head.

  • So...when rednecks 'go out to have a good time' they just drink so much that they act like asses and ruin events for everyone. They are the same people who break picture windows out at house parties.

  • there are a lot of disgusting, disrespectful hicks in Indiana. i grew up in a small indiana hick town. so disrespectful. i would have smashed that guitar over that guys head who went on stage.

  • He definitely had more self control than I would have.

  • @1eye4revolution Oh yeah, reminds me of an old saying;

    Give a man a joint and give a man a bottle and see which one makes the fool out of him.

  • He's very lucky travis is sober now. If he was tweakin out he would have done what he did to that guitar to his face!!!

  • what a bunch of fucking idiots

  • i understand why travis got so pissed off, those hillbillies were acting very rude. when somebody plays songs for you, you should be quiet. screaming all the way through the songs or mocking the performer is beyond respectless.

    however, i would've never smashed my guitar because of those fools, travis could've just walked away.

  • i think he was more chill about it. i would have snaped that redneck's fucking neck

  • fucking idiot if that were me i would of fucking broke the guitar his fucking head

  • It was the drunk, RUDE and DISRESPECTFUL audiance that made him leave, i would of done the same thing.. Travis you are a creative genius, keep up your work.

    I saw (the band) and him in concert at First Ave in Mpls, MN and LOVED it, I was lucky to be in the front right under Travis... i drooled through the whole thing! LOL!

  • he should've smashed that guitar over that a**holes head!

  • Charlestown isn't all hicks, trust me.. These people were just plain jealous of what Travis had..and were drunk rednecks.. Glad Travis walked out.. With the temper that runs in his genes, it could have gotten very ugly..

  • @Shimmeringsmiley Bullshit, I thought that was Kentucky before I read the title. F that place.

  • @wallydog49 What do you mean by BS? That Charlestown isn't alll hicks? Or, the crowd was jealous? I'm right about every comment I made. I'm from KY and knew Travis... I know people from Charlestown (some that were jealous and were hicks) and some that aren't hicks.. Not at all.. They like living away from the city.. Kentucky is a great state and Louisville a fun city..

  • I woulda hit the fat dude. I woulda broke my guitar on the idiots head that was singing. No respect. I wish I could see this dude perform instead of those trailor trolls watching him

  • What a bunch of pricks...where was security? I feel bad for him and I would walked off, too. Fuck them.

  • That just sucks. I hate when a crowd is just shitty toward the musician...

  • I meant Travis

  • Thats what happens when you are so lame and have to play in front of a crowd of 50 people and cant get a big sign for a huge city rock concert ...sucks to be not wanted as a musician . Kieth used to have more spirit in his songs when he first started out .Now hes forced to play in Karaoke bars and pub crawls .

  • @Lotum4n Lame? Where's your #1 song? He is wanted as a musician, he just has a drinking problem. And so you know, that was a hometown show, he would have done it for 20 people, just not obnoxious assholes. You apparently have never had people come to a performance you are putting on and then be that disrespectful to you. If they didn't want to be there, they didn't have to be, but instead they acted like asses and ruined the concert for everyone. Don't blame Travis.

  • damn those fat, drunk, p.o.s hill scoggins ruined what would of turned out to be an amazing night of music, i would of gave my arse to of been there sipping on my favorite beverage & listening to travis.

  • Travis should have shoved his guitar up that POS's ass !

  • If I was there, I would defend Travis and smack those drunk in the face. Nobody messes with my music mentor.

  • If I was there, I would defend Travis and smack those drunk in the face. Nobody messes with my music mentor.

  • Wow this was hard to watch fuck those guys!

  • Fuckin' drunk hoosiers. Meeks is alright. He shoulda smashed his guitar over that moron's head, tho.

  • The shitty part about slamming that beautiful Taylor to pieces is, that guitar probably cost more then what that douchbag on the mike makes in 4 months!

  • We had the opertunity to open for Travis last saturday night, 5/8/2010, He mentioned his show the previous night. People just dont get it, his acoustic show is different then an electric days of the new show, what he does with an acoustic requires a little patience for the listener, but once achieved you can understand what he is doing, and are grateful for raw emotion. Some people just dont understand art in a pure form. I have a new found respect for what he does. SX

  • this happend last night again, same thing but worse, travis needs to play coffe shops not bars, their dicks to him. i told them to fuck off.

  • damn.... I'd leave too

  • Thats when you bust out the strat, and start pummeling eardrums

  • What a bunch of losers!!!

  • folks... meet the people who discovered and took over the land we now know as america.

  • who ever was running the show that night should be exicuted.

  • Well, after watching this, I'll never book a show in Charleston.

  • If this was at a GNR concert, Axl would have dived off the stage swinging like he did in St Louis. I would have smashed the guitar through their heads.

  • he should have blindsided that guy on stage with a guitar to the back of his hillbilly, inbred cranium. Funny how nothing gets done until travis starts busting the guitar. Worthless security.

  • @voletto1 I know and the hillbilly was so stupid too. Travis was tryin to say he expresses his feelings through his music on stage and the hillbilly just didn't understand what he was saying lol

  • what a bunch of fuckin fagets... if i was at that fuckin concert i wouldlve roundhoused thier asses!!

  • Love Travis, and he was a lot cooler headed than I would have been in that situation.

    Its clear he is the only star in that video. Loud mouth nobodies who need attention like those hicks in the video are the scum of the Earth.

    I'm a child of addiction and I pray for Travis.

  • Trav should have tee'd of on that fag's wig...But then again, his sister's baby would have lost its father!

  • they havent been hung because?

  • idiots like this give us rednecks a bad reputation.

  • travis meeks is one of a kind he will be reminded of the greats and if he would ever come to tulsa we would welcome him with open arms,im sorry those cuntry fux cant appreciate what he has done for music in general,

    fuk his addictions and his foes i seen him play with METALLICA/SUICIDAL/COC/

    SO TRAVIS IF U EVER DECIDE TO COME TULSA HIT US UP WE ARE A METAL BAND THAT HAS LISTENDED AND GREW UP AND HAS OUR OWN VICES... I WILL ALWAYS CHERISH THOSE FIRST SONGS AND HOPE U BELEIVE IN THE RIFF

  • that idiot deserved that guitar shoved up his arse. Travis showed much more reservation than most in that situation. I'd have destroyed that guitar, too(which is a sad, sad thing), but would've done it over that loser's head. Meathead was probably proud of himself, too. Clueless.

  • Losers in this audience. Completely clueless when it comes to musical talent. Travis is gifted beyond belief and deserves a listen.

  • Where did this happen in Charlestown, IN? I'd like to know the name of the club. And why didn't the security people get the redneck guy offstage?

  • hahaha that dipstick thought he was the star of the show LMAO he's trying to be a rock star screaming into the microphone.....drunk f**k....I woulda slapped the shit out of him, not coz he's being disrespectful, but because he thinks he's the star and he's a big NOBODY lol

  • The floor??? Nah, Nah...it would've ended up across that guys face. Travis held it together (in a legal manner so to speak). If it was me, my temper would've hurt the guy. It's crap like this that really pisses me off about people. He put's on a show and their not even appreciative of it.

  • @guitardavid79 you are right. If travis would have hit the jerk, the jerks would have won and it would all be his fault and charged for agression and shit. What a bunch of rednecks assholes, they dont deserve to listen to a great musician like Travis.

  • He should have played "Freebird".

  • @LeftySixSoul inspired comment

    

  • god how I hate rednecks, no wonder everyone hates the USA....

  • @jbudd you've obviously never been outside the usa to think that rednecks are only in the usa

  • I have , just not to europe.. I go on surf trips Costa Rica , central america, hawaii

  • Hawaii is part of the USA genius

  • yea no shit, but the natives hate you kooks so I dont consider it, same with puerto rico

  • That was a nice guitar too.

  • WOW...WTF?...Where was security? that was sad. Almost hard to watch since real fans know what he went through. Gotta give Travis credit for even sitting there that long and tryin to be patient with them. Even still, they acted like complete fools.

  • @bwylde27 , I was wondering the same thing. Where in the hell is security, organizer, manager ? somebody. people are so stupid. I feel bad for Travis.

  • @bwylde27 They should host an axl's concert once.

  • Seems horribly staged. There's no way something like this could happen. This shit happens to a band playing for free beer.

  • Comment removed

  • I cannot believe those drunk assholes. Travis, You had every right to end that show. In fact, you shoulda broke that guitar over that douche's head. Where was security in all this?

  • i have one word for this video

    unfuckingbelieveable...

    i would give my left tit to see travis meeks and/or Days of the New

    people r retards

  • From times to times I see those videos about what happened on this concert. Then I believe I am having only a nightmare. So, I have to see again. But they are real. How is it possible? Travis Meeks, a legend, someone that everyone would love to hear had to see and hear those morons, those idiots.

  • That was painful to watch. I don't blame him for leaving.

  • fuck if i ever go to indiana or kentucky im gonna kill these fools. dude and none of you were there.... fags...for travis meeks

  • lip sing my ass dude i was there. wtf you talkin about?

  • YEah good job the way he handled it... Travis...if i was there I wouldve whooped some ass...

  • Watched days play in waterloo this weekend and never have i ever seen a singer lip sink but he for sure did. Sad one of my fav bands would have to do something like that!

  • And then they grew up to be republican.

  • wow.. wth... what an asshole that guy was. i would have def smacked that guitar over his head lol

  • he shouls get 1 of thoes guitars like antino banderas in that movie where the gun comes out the end and shoot thoese stupid fucks he handle that well i would of flipped but im not a celeb

  • I was hoping he would hit that guy with the guitar. lol

  • total shame. Travis deserves respect...he's so talented

  • I can completley understand this. I come from Arkansas and I am surrounded by these dumb fucks. It is hard to play this type of music in these areas.

  • Who ever that dude was that gt on stage

    His Face is there

    Find Him and kick his ass!

  • Where the hell was the security?

    Were they drunk too?

    Travis handled it well.

    He didn't deserve that kind of treatment.

    It's a shame how a bunch of dumb, white-trash red-necks can ruin what could have been a good show for everybody.

    The guy in the red hat who mocked Travis, is probably married to his cousin.

  • they are some dumb inbreds, someone should have shut them up, take the beer away and give em a joint.

  • good. glad to hear that cuz his intervention episode was sad but what's even more sad is the fact that those white trash hill billy scum can't appreciate talent when it's right in front of them.

  • He should have busted the guitar over that fucking guy's head. He showed a lot of restraint, gotta respect that.

  • It would have been totally worth the aggravation/court bullshit if he did smash that guitar over that dude's head too.

  • im in a band this shit is gonna hapin. he cut the show short to smoke some meth i guisrrentee it my niggers

  • That's a goddamn shame right there. Travis is up there playing some of best damn music around, giving a beautiful performance, and those dumbfucks show no respect whatsoever. They didn't even deserve to be there for his performance. They were incredibly rude to both him and those who were actually there for the music, not just to be drunken fools. The dude who jumped on the stage is lucky that Travis didn't smash that guitar on the dude's head. I would be even more pissed than Travis I bet.

  • Where was security? Honestly.

  • Anybody took the neck? So sad, such a nice instument

  • jazu - Do you enjoy Travlyn Meeks?

  • I like DOTN music. Since he created this band, I have respect to his art.

    The truth is, I wish that instead of smashing the guitar he would just toss it to the crowd (and I would be in catching it:)

  • That would not be as rock n' roll. Has Travlyn Meeks been involved with DOTN?

  • he is days of the new

  • that comment makes no sense..

  • How do you mean?

  • surely those ass backwards redneck retards would have much rather been somewhere else stinking of rank ass bill-hilly shit stain sweat & mountain doo and bangin' a close family member while thinkin' about how awesome dale earnhardt sr. was?? towards the beginning there's that large hunk of human shit that's screamin' and sippin' his fuckin' cheap beer (YUCK!!!!) is my favourite! uneducated and terribly low class midwest thuglife pansy nonsense.

  • I feel for Travis hes got himself in a fucked up situation right now

  • I grew up in sellersburg and new albany and jeff and I hear ya

  • This is southern Indiana, behavior like that is strangely accepted around here. I unfortunately live very close to Charlestown, and in my opinion most people from that hick town are pure scum. I just want to assure people that not EVERYONE from the midwest is that ignorant and disrespectful. I didn't know about this show when it happened or I would have been there.Travis is a great musician and deserves respect, but he knows how people are around here(listen to the lyrics to Down Town).

  • just watching that vid makes my blood boil. i dont how he held it together for so long, but he must have been just insane with anger on the inside. obviously there was no bouncer/security guys there. too bad, a couple of loosers ruined it all for everyone else and travis. but even the crowd should have done something about those idiots. too bad.

  • renecks 0 travis 1

  • Truly SAD that these bitch~boys get away with the shit talk!! And the bouncers if any were there, should have their ass kicked simply cause they did nothing about it!! I assure you @ our shows if anyone even thought about acting like this They dont walk out w/out some kind of assistance!! This video shows both cowards and fuk~stix!!! and for the fat ass in the front row,,I dare you to come to my show!!!!!! Thats if you have the BALLS to travel to TEXAS!!!

  • the difference between raw talent and stuiped moron

  • And then hicks wonder why the fuck the rest of the world wants nothing to do with them. Fuckin retards. He comes to his home town and this i
