The story I heard was Ren was ending his day on the street busking and he walked over to Sam singing without any equipment. So he invited him to use his equipment and placed a bet that he would attract a lot of attention with the microphone and speakers. And the rest is that Sam and Ren was busking before he Ren played with his band.
They met when Ren had finished busking for the day and was on his way home and seen Sam singing so he offered Sam his microphone and amp so more people could here him and Ren played the guitar. And Sam could keep all the money. Sam was 16 and Ren was 23 at the time. There a video of that day on Sam’s channel, you see Ren sitting in a doorway playing while Sam is singing
@@Lulabee2024 No problem. It's one of my favorite Sam videos because it shows young Sam growing up and also our Rennie boy for a few seconds on that day that destiny intervened. Beautiful friendship/brotherhood ❤️
The green wheelbarrow leaning against the church is how they transport their gear. You would also probably really enjoy their collaboration on a studio performance of an original song Blind Eyed.
There are tons of versions, but the official video, the M.C. Sessions, and Angry Car Park attendant are my favourites. Worth doing a long reaction by watching all three. They are all so different. And then there are 'What went wrong Parts 1 and 2'.
You are right about the mics, and also, to Ren's left there's a green barrow leaning against the building, the "transportation" they used to bring their gear... Man...Thanks for this reaction!
🦋 thank you so much for your love of music and your willingness to share it with all of us. So many of these people I would never even know about if it had not been for this channel and I feel blessed that I found your channel. Have a great weekend. Peace be upon thee.
You can't see it in this clip but they used to carry their equipment in a beat up old wheelbarrow. It took quite a while before they got to the 3 mikes and amps set up of the Big Push .
What a great reaction! I'm pretty sure the mic is the old school SM-58. He showed it one time. I bought mine so many years ago that the price new was under $100.
I wish you knew how much it literally makes my day when I see you've done a reaction to Ren or other artists I'm into, my god man, why haven't they invented teleportation devices yet, I need to have a beer with you and pick your brain. Not trying to sound like a stalker, but as I get older, semi retired, job related ptsd from seeing things people weren't meant to see.... AARRRGGGHH......Music is my savior man, NOTHING has gotten me through the darkness and torn me down then lifted me back up like music has. And of the few friends I still stay in contact with, they just don't get it, they think I'm just a music junkie, which I am, but I'll show them something that moves me, or broke me, and they're like...Meh. Again, your break downs and descriptions and synopsis, are like you downloaded my thoughts and then mixed them with some new words I wish I would have thought of...lol. If ya ever get to the U.S. and wanna see a boring fly over state in the middle of nowhere Missouri, hit me up, first round is on me!! Oh yeah, was "windscreen" the word you were looking for on the mic?? I've heard them called a bunch of things, also, isn't the mic with the black windscreen the SV-200 series, cause you can pick them up new for under $100 all day long, I thought the other (better) mic was an SM-58, they're closer to $200 range, but I haven't played music, for an audience, for a very long time, so I might be wrong. ✌💚
Sorry to pop back in, while I was writing the above, Ren dropped a new song, like brand brand new, acoustic performance piece, just him, It's a mash up of some Fred-again songs. Holy jumpin' jeepers, this is the one! Never thought I'd say something is next level for Ren cause he's that good, but the guitar playing alone melted my mind, it's so good that I don't think someone that's never played an instrument can really wrap their head around the expert level picking and strumming he's pulling off flawlessly. I know you like to space your Ren reactions out, but you should really check this one out as soon as you have a Ren slot open, I give you my word, you will be truly blown away and deeply moved. Take care! (Oh, the song is simply called "Fred Again Mashup")
Dudeee! If I ever make it over to the states Missouri will be my first stop just to grab a cold one with you. Good conversation, good music, and good conversation about good music. Nothing but love to you from Beirut ❤️❤️❤️
🦋 Well, thank you for the links. I went and checked both of them out more thoroughly love them. So an interesting interview with Ren on the Zach Sang Show. He talked about his journey of being misdiagnosed for so many years, and being so chronically sick and then one day finally went to an infectious disease doctor, and he discovered that he had lymes disease. Him speaking out at his age of I think maybe 26 or something is a voice for so many people. And it’s a personal journey for me with my child about something like that. I feel that you understand this, but I just wanted to reiterate how far reaching things can be sometimes, so thank you for that.

wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Yas, I believe he offered Sam his guitar and mic but at that point Sam couldn't play so Ren accompanied him.
And Ren let Sam keep all the proceeds by all accounts as he was about to head home with his own earnings. Solid dude.
Notice Their transport propped up against the Wall. Re: Green Wheelbarrow, that’s real, good reaction
Was Sam about 14 then?

The video is in Sam's song Time Will Fly.
@@MoreKellBellPlease thank you!

The mic he's using is the old school SM-58. I used to have one. He also shows it in a video called Ren's prized possessions.
Great reaction!
Love the level of appreciation you have for these two beautiful gems💛💛Great in their own right but together pure magic🤩
Ren just dropped a new song TODAY. It's an acoustic mash up of Fred Again tracks. It's amazing.
Gorgeous song
Boudy, Ren and Sam have really tapped into the creative flow of the universe to bring us all their sounds that makes our imaginations fly. ♾Rb
Sir Richardddddddd!!!
@@ArabManReacts A manifested dream come true on the 29th. How cool is that? ♾Rb
Ren and Sam are just sooo good. They just feed off each other when together. 🙂
Ren has said that he always tries to focus only on the music when he performs - to be in a flow state and actually BECOME the music.
Loved your reaction. So much more Ren to hear. I mean a ton. Can’t wait to take the journey with you. Thank you.
What a treat to watch this with you. Love hearing your thoughts. Pure joy and generosity.
This is such an amazing moment in time. And thankfully it's captured for us to enjoy any time and anywhere we want.
Love love love this performance!!!

Terrific reaction and analysis. Thanks for supporting Ren!!

Love Ren and Love Sam, together they are simply electrifying.
One of my favorite things about these guys is the green wheelbarrow they use to get their gear to the street
What a great reaction! I'm pretty sure the mic is the old school SM-58. He showed it one time. I bought mine so many years ago that the price new was under $100.
They really are extraordinarily talented young men.
Шикарно! Голоса супер, супер, супер! Я в шоке, в хорошем смысле. Спасибр❤

Howdy neighbor. Ren fanatic from your neighbor to the north (Iowa). My friends just don't get it either. Like how can you not feel that!?!

Did anyone tell you that you have the best background of all reactors? That is, the visual background.
You would be the first! Thank you
