review:
In the summer of 2001, Travis embarked on a rather hectic
festival schedule which saw them headlining three huge gigs
over the Bank Holiday weekend--the Reading and Leeds Festivals
and Glasgow's Gig On The Green. More Than Us--Live in Glasgow
is the final of the three shows, and captures them at their
best. Coming on the back of the release of their third album
The Invisible Band it was inevitable that most of the tracks
would be culled from this, including instant favourites "Sing"
and "Side", but they do keep a healthy amount of
old favourites on the set list as well-"Driftwood",
"Writing To Reach You", "All I Want To Do Is
Rock" and "Why Does It Always Rain Me". Not
that the crowd need winning over--this is a local concert
for local people after all. They've come a long way from their
humble beginnings as Oasis's favourite support act, so much
so that Noel Gallagher is now seen watching from the wings.
He looks suitably impressed, as he rightfully should be--this
is a great performance from one of Britain's best-loved bands.
On
the DVD: The concert is accompanied by a video diary of
the band on the road--with footage from their tour bus and
backstage at the three gigs. Along with this is a wealth of
special features including a great acoustic version of "More
Than This" for the Jo Wiley show, which you can set up
to be intercut with the concert footage or viewed as a separate
film; a special playlist feature, which groups the tracks
from the concerts in the order of the albums they come from
to give you a chronological guide to Travis live and a full
Travis discography. Recorded in Dolby 5.1 along with the option
to view the concert from a total of four different angles.
