| KarmaPoliceman: | How'd you ge tthe name Travis when none of your names are Travis? |
| The_Band_Travis: | Em, we got it from a movie called Paris, Tx. |
| The_Band_Travis: | There's a character in that film called Travis and the actor that plays the role is called Harry Dean Stanton. |
| The_Band_Travis: | We just kind of liked the film, we're big film fans in the band, so we chose the name of the character. |
| The_Band_Travis: | The character is a kind of loner, and em...it's just a great film, I want everyone to go and see Paris, TX. And the soundtrack is amazing as well. |
| kerouac_cohen: | Fran...have you read ON THE ROAD by Jack Kerouac...if not..I want you to!...I tried to throw it at you at a concert but it hit a lady instead! |
| The_Band_Travis: | Yes, I have read it. |
| The_Band_Travis: | I didn't get it, though. I don't like reading books. I'd much rather do things and write about them than read what other people have done. |
| The_Band_Travis: | And I'm also dyslexic. |
| Minneapolis_Mighty: | Can you talk about your new song 'Safe' a little? I love it. Keep chillin. |
| The_Band_Travis: | Em...Safe's a really old song which we recorded in a B side session recently, and I added a couple of sections to it, and it sounded good, just farting around with it. |
| The_Band_Travis: | And our record company guy, and our producer Nigel Godrich heard it and said that it sounded really, really familar to them like they already knew it. |
| The_Band_Travis: | So we decided we were going to record it and put it on the next album. |
| The_Band_Travis: | And it's about simply human faith. |
| The_Band_Travis: | In amongst all the madness. |
