@@Cerics right you are. Something isn't right at it's originating in the center. His soul is literally keeping his flesh alive and has been to this day. We are souls with bodies after all, not bodies with souls.
I think it’s completely stupid that the record companies didn’t want to sign him so he and the band could make the purple album, he deserves to do what he lives for and be happy and creative
Is he related to you man ? If he is im sorry man i know its hard im a recovering heroin addict 6 years it took me hating that life that person and the retual but in is his intervention he said he loves the whole retual of it from buying it doing it he just has to get to that im fuckin done point man but if he ain't related to you then its still cool you care about someone elses family member that would be going through addiction problems but i went off on a dude on in comment section for saying he's already dead im a big big fan of Travis
People are so fuckin rude.... Are you hoping to hurt his feelings calling me names? If you know ANYTHING ABOUT HIM HE'S NOTHING BUT EMOTIONS AND FEELINGS THATS WHAT MAKES HIS MUSIC GREAT.....
I agree.. he had an undiagnosed disease he found out about in adulthood. People need to consider that before bashing individuals. I’m not in anyway condoning his drug use but as far as the form of Autism he has, I feel for him greatly.
I used to live in the ‘Ville. Jim Porters good time emporium. I saw so many cars that flipped over on the big bend on Grinstead coming out of that place
Great song that reminds me of back home, Corpus Christi TX,but such a shitty performance. This song is in my top 5 of all time and I listen to lots of genres.
love this group wish they could get back together and make some more music . tantric is awesome though , would like to see more of them . or my band will have to carry on the torch , but it wouldnt be the same
no, he's just tired of playing these old songs off the orange album. when he plays his new stuff he is still just as good (better imo) than he use to be. im going to see them in 2 days again. i cant wait.
I was thinking the same thing, good luck that he makes it out (all addicts that cant make it out are weak). Reminded me of my older brother saying when he saw Hendrix around 69-70 and he was totally depressed about playing Purple Haze, people need to get a fucking grip and not BRING ME DOWN!
I saw him 2 times and he was amazing,it amazes me how these artists waist there lifes away on drugs when they can have anything...........METH fuck stop for christ sakes ur hair is falling out!
Makes no difference to me how messed up the guy was, or is... The worst part of this video is the 'people' shouting and talking about 'their day' while he's trying to perform. There's almost nothing worse. I suppose being 'booed' might be; but what's the difference really?
He doesn't care about singing anymore. No vocalist with respect for their audience and selves would smoke a cigarette while trying to sing. Obviously it robs your lungs of oxygen and demenishes your lung capacity therefore keeping you from staying on pitch and overall sounding your best. What a waste of an awesome voice and talent. Sad.
Yea cause no rock musician has ever sparked up on stage. Travis sings whats real. its not perfection he's going for. He has lost a lot of his voice over the years due to drugs and cigarettes but he still sounds amazing.

you can see his progression down....unfortunately....one of the greatest singers ive ever heard....when he decides to sing
I love the yellow album! I hope his head is right these days. Lots of talent hiding behind those demons. Get well Travis
beetlejuice!
Dude! I just thought the same thing!!!
Just thought of that too.. "And it keeps getting funnier every time I see it!"
Two more time!
Kinda badass
Hahaha!!!! Sad but true.
How the hell does he still sound so good? Wow. I'm speechless.
Cuz he is Travis meeks
He’s got gut
Good
Looks like absolute SHIT though, and I hate that.
@@Cerics right you are. Something isn't right at it's originating in the center. His soul is literally keeping his flesh alive and has been to this day. We are souls with bodies after all, not bodies with souls.
2021 Can’t believe he’s still alive. I wish he’d get help. Saw him around this time and he looked like hell, but goddamn he can sing and play!!
@Jedimaster420 ...Ha Ha,. You are So Right 👍
God Travis looks so haggard. He's only 29 and doesn't look a day over 60.
Just remember kids: No matter how big you get, stay away from crystal meth.
haggardy methwick coca cola savior....
he reminds me of beetlejiuce in this video. great song
Lmfao
This man should be respected...Period...

@@rockerman8832
Without a doubt
Yeah! Exactly!! Tell that to intelligence!! I mean, haven't they harassed him enough already??
I met him, very down to earth and chill guy. Was a very cool experience.
Hey travis if you happen upon this dude remember what i said man. You cant keep a rock n roller down man. 🤟✌🎸🎶🎙🎛🔊
This guy is an incredible talent! Lightning bolts coming out of him!
@Jedimaster420 ...and What else,. You think ??
Sounds Great to me!! I've got a wish !! That everything turns out good and we get more from Travis Meeks!!
an icon of 90s, closeby cobain and aic, thank you for your talent, surely the jim's influence
like watching a family member destroy themselves

Poor Travis. Addiction is a miserable life.
i love this guy, greetings from Argentina

Not anymore, he shaved his head
Sweet! I can't wait to see another show. Thanks for posting this. See ya on the board.

Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!

People are so fuckin rude....
Are you hoping to hurt his feelings calling me names?

@@hawkeye770 no. He has aspergers. He’s on the spectrum as a savant.
hey was at jim poters in louisville last night he is from the town i live in he rocked the house
I used to live in the ‘Ville. Jim Porters good time emporium. I saw so many cars that flipped over on the big bend on Grinstead coming out of that place
Such a loss to drugs. So talented.
HE IS THE MAN
huh? Beetlejuice??? This guy was the Joker before the movie even came out!
ya he's clean
Great song that reminds me of back home, Corpus Christi TX,but such a shitty performance. This song is in my top 5 of all time and I listen to lots of genres.
Corpus isn't doing good either nowadays by the looks of the beaches this past weekend anyways..... Unfortunately....
Travis is fucking good love the music
fucken awesome travis is the shit
We got the Maitlands here tonight
don't take the drugs away!!
Wow. I wondered what happened to him. Stay strong.
Yes sir.
UN GROSO! SALUDOS DESDE ARGENTINA.

Before the second album these guys had serious potential
Trying to hang in there. I get this'
BEETLEJUICE LOL!! best comment ever. Awesome.

COOL,huh ??????Oh HELL YEAH !
love this group wish they could get back together and make some more music . tantric is awesome though , would like to see more of them . or my band will have to carry on the torch , but it wouldnt be the same

Well, I can safely say this isn’t a case of simple stardom burnout 12 years later lol.
@Kyrox a very very talented "beetlejuice" :P

Your a fucking idiot!
Drugs aged him! Poor Travis Meeks looks like Beetlejuice. Sad...still a good performance and still like this song
haha, wish I had thought of that... thats funny
see what meth does to someone, travis get well
I was thinking beetle juice also lol but good performance!
Sad, the Joker is in the house :{
Hope you're a better person now
His voice has changed.
Disagree
He was 17 when he wrote this song, of course his voice has changed lmao
@@STMBeats15
he was 29
He has the feeling of true knowledge in the know of
Meth is a hell of a drug.
Tragic
he had a problem with meth not heroin
man.. its clear its been a looong bad season. Shockin and beautiful vid, but the same fuckn amanzin artist
How old is he here?
@zackz22, amirite?!
I saw him 2 times and he was amazing,it amazes me how these artists waist there lifes away on drugs when they can have anything...........METH fuck stop for christ sakes ur hair is falling out!
Makes no difference to me how messed up the guy was, or is...
The worst part of this video is the 'people' shouting and talking about 'their day' while he's trying to perform.
There's almost nothing worse.
I suppose being 'booed' might be; but what's the difference really?
i dont know man...not whay he was
Betlejuice
sad
You are sick 😫
@LutherRayable
esta cagado mi tio.....!!!!!!!
reminds me of the joker
whole msg.. dont do drugs.. or ull be as fucked up as travis.
GET A HAIRCUT SON!
Crystal Death
The first time I heard this song over the radio I thought is was from Nirvana.
dont do crystal meth kids
ummmmm very bad .. not the same going downn
He doesn't care about singing anymore. No vocalist with respect for their audience and selves would smoke a cigarette while trying to sing. Obviously it robs your lungs of oxygen and demenishes your lung capacity therefore keeping you from staying on pitch and overall sounding your best. What a waste of an awesome voice and talent. Sad.
Im pretty sure he actually struggled to even get there..
Yea cause no rock musician has ever sparked up on stage. Travis sings whats real. its not perfection he's going for. He has lost a lot of his voice over the years due to drugs and cigarettes but he still sounds amazing.
disregard the copious amounts of meth he was doing lol
did you not see the part where he put it down and started to sing or did you only watch the first 45 seconds?
Oh Lord. Grow up
I saw him 2 times and he was amazing,it amazes me how these artists waist there lifes away on drugs when they can have anything...........METH fuck stop for Christ sakes ur hair is falling out!
I saw him too, brought tears to my eyes. Thought he reminded me of beetle juice
