Sorry, I just wanna get a new thread started on this. It's such an awesome video, from start to finish - for me, it really sums up the feelings of excitement for the guys about whats going on with the band - the 11 year wait, Travis' feelings about whats happening, the jamming, the atmosphere...it's fantastic! My favourite part of the video though is the beginning: Some yells out in the background "Harmful Belly!" and Brad says "yeah can you play that one?" and the same background voice excitedly says "Play that one! Play that one!" (can someone pick who's voice it is?) Then Travis says "I can. It's in another tune" and straight away starts to retune his guitar, and a voice says "This is another song. I REALLY love this song!" And as they're jamming out, a voice yells "ohhhh yeaaah!!" Always sends chills up my spine! Travis, you're the man! Anyone else got something to say about the video? What they love? The feelings they get? Spread the love!!!

I thought it was Brad who said "I love this song."

I love how the video is raw and honest...there is no extraneous bullshit like so many videos have. It's just "here we are doin' our thing" which is what I like to see. After seeing the first pics of their jam session I was dying to know what exactly was going on in that studio - what were they playing - what was the vibe - and now I feel like those questions have been answered. Great work Glen! I hope he does more of their videos.
I have to say that I absolutely love and respect the fact that they're doing this all on their own right now, everything from the production and mixing to the videos. It seems like when outsiders start to get their hands involved a lot of that raw and honest quality that I love so much gets lost.

I love it, it's very "non rock star", there's a good vibe to it because you can see the guys are having a really good time and personally I really like Travis. It gets a #thumb# from me.

I to, hope Glen keeps up his "video making." It shows so much that a "regular" video director would miss.

i like the silly face of Rogers during his solo and the transition (from Travis' acoustic version to the Blind Melon's electric one) i just regret Glen is not enough in front of the cam
it's a cool video, it gives the song something very special

I think the fact that all look like they're having such a great time makes it so wonderful. I can't wait to see more videos, hear more songs, see them live, etc. I love Travis already!
