Went to see Travis in Austin last night with Adam, Tricia, Tom and Beth. It was an amazing concert. It is a rare to see a band that is that great at what they do. From their entrance into the venue (they played the rocky theme song, entered from the back with boxing robes on punching the air) to performing their songs with passion and ease. After their first song Fran, the lead sing, looked down on the front row and saw a small child being held by his mother. He leaned down and was talking to her, none of us knew what was going on. Then he signaled for his crew and pointed to his ears. He was asking for ear plugs for the child. He said in the mic, we need to protect those little baby ears. It was such a genuine act of kindness. Most people would say, "that stupid mom" and just keep going. I posted a video from the show on youtube of the band singing "flowers in the window" during the encore. I am going to post it here also, so enjoy!
