    • Great little snip-it doc. So typical of that age group to be pissed (in different ways) and display it in such an entertaining way with music.

      Love the end and how the "Little White Lines" come together, or not. I like that it was done in black and white. Good job, both artist and creator.

      Travis, you inspired me to join Current.com ...Thank you !

      PS What if you do live to be 70, then what and what would you sing ?

    • I think this documentary is beautiful and very simple. I think musicians make the best heros because they don't have to have cookie cutter lives and ideals. They are allowed to have flaws (if you can define their differences as flaws). I love that this documentary makes me want to know more about this person, and the stories behind his music. The music really gets to me. I do love this film.

    • I think this is a really creative outlook on life, and definitely unique. He reminds me of some other artist and I can't figure it out. Huh. Liked this story

    • Joel, fantastic job! You placed some beautiful shots in the finished product, the work made ten minutes pass like ten seconds. All the best, brother.

    • I know and love this guy! I am a big fan of his music and think this short clip is a raw glimpse of him I rarely see, but know exists (now we all know). I hope he finds the things he searches for and keeps playing his heartfelt music along his journey. Safe travels Music Man.

    • Didn't particularly like the music but loved the short. Thought the opening speech was brilliant simply for it's honesty. Actually... all the dialogue from Mr. Travis is great.

    • “I don’t expect to see 70. I don’t expect to lead a full and happy life, I expect that everyday I live I’m going to blow up”

      -I don't expect to lead a full and happy life

      This after he just said in his opening statement:
      “I smoke I drink and I live my life to the fullest extent I see fit”

      Is he just contradicting himself or is he just talking shit..

      Sorry, he’s talking shit.
      It’s in his voice.
