My Barbershop group in Saint Paul hosted these guys and they did Dummy in our concert. Unbelievable talent and what an honor to sing on the same stage with them. Absolutely hilarious quartet!
I was 10 and still 10 years away from finding my way to this hobby. Can someone explain what Freestyle meant by 12th place mic testers / fourth place bronze medalist mike testers? Was there a tie the year before, and 11th place was the first ones to go? And did the fourth place medalist from last year go first this year?
the year beforehand, there was a computing error whilst the MC was reading off the top 10 quartets to enter the finals, however, soon they had found out that there were 11 quartets in the finals. when freestyle did the mic-test, they made a bucket-load of jokes about it, of course to the judges and the committee's expense. also, 4th place from 2002 dropped to 5th this year, i think they were just trying to be "realistic" as far as "realistic" can be lol

I was thinking of FRED as soon as they started the second bit. Was not expecting them to actually show up. Thats awesome!
That tenor is ridiculously good.
I wonder where Tim Waurick got his inspiration from…

If I remember correctly this was the last time freestyle had sung at international
Woah that Oxley solo was sick
Where was only in this
Conner Rock gotta watch the whole thing man! Lol
This is definitely one of my favorite mic test performances personally
Shed a LOT of tears watching this and remembering the sheer talent and love of Barbershop for so many years.
I think they should run this mic test back
Very ARTISTIC! Do I need any LICENSE to do this set with my quartet?
i dont KNOW if you need a LICENSE. maybe YOU DO but I HAVE NO idea

Okay, who's the tenor? 34 second post!
Todd Kidder
the tenor is in artstic lisence and same with the lead
@@tylercollins9323 actually the tenor left artistic license due to his work schedule and was replaced by a younger tenor named Julian Katsuni
@@steveboone1498 one of the best Tenors in the Society that never won
@@d.lamarelliott7370 one of the best that never made it to the top five in any competition except for district and prelims.
"you think they saw that?"
"Nah"
Ded
Are these guys still in barbershop?
The lead and tenor were in Artistic License (top 10 for a few years), but I’m not sure about the others.
