    The fact that he genuinely cares when Avril talks about her outfit is so cute and special. That just made him seem like he cares about everything that’s important her. Not to say men don’t care about clothes but most men or producers in general would probably think negatively of her, as a musician, that she brought that up to her first. He knows that is an important part of her as a person and artist and is probably nurturing that about her as well as so many other things

    I’ve loved him since I was a young teen listening to him with Blink… He has ALWAYS held to his core creative values and done things on his own terms, which earns IMMENSE amounts of respect. He has ebbed and flowed in and out of the spotlight for over two decades, and he hasn’t let it change him. I hope he can teach the young artists he’s mentoring that they don’t need to “brand” themselves, and that it is COMPLETELY ok to be multi-faceted and experiment with their sound and style. BRAVO, Travis… you’re what the world needs right now in music!
