Some of us, live, life, like a board game, Its new, fun and you play it, with people, there's a time, you get tired, and you put it away. Then, one day, you get it out, and the pieces are broken.... Are you fuckin kidding me?? This man is a genius...
I first heard him playing on a cd of dotn and i was sure that they fingerpicked all what they played because i've never seen someone do things like that with a plectrum before !! That's guitarplaying at a high level ... A band with 5 electric guitars and 2 singers wouldn't rock like travis with his guitar <3!
@vicarious travis has way more heart n soul in his music than dax. Acid Bath and Agents of Oblivion are all dax had good for him, thats just a memory n a cd now...
It takes a true bad ass to pull off such a live performance, there are only a few guys that I know of who are capable of this. Another one that comes to mind is Dax Riggs.
Travis Meeks is venerated for his absolute brilliant acoustic guitar play. He is deserving of every bit. This man is amazing. Though he walks throug the valley of death, he fears no evil, for he is the badest mother fucker in that valley!
couldn't have said it better. He is and will always be one of my favorite musicians. Glad to hear he's sober now, if for no other reason than I don't want the world to lose his talent.

1 there are several different ways to spell that word
2 yes alot have but if you didnt mean it as an insult to him i wouldent have cared. this guy is amazingly talented and has had a few problems and i highly doubt that he wants to even think about that time in his life. if i was in his shoes i wouldent.
just admit that you were wrong to judge me. you didn't know that not everyone is a prick like you, and that i own the red, orange, AND green DOTN albums so i wasn't insulting him. and it's spell douche you illiterate moron.
best performance of travis!
