    If you like the Beatles, the REO Brothers are one of the best Beatles cover bands out there. Just like with this song, they don't screw around with their covers.... they try to reproduce the original versions as closely as possible and are remarkably talented in doing just that.

    Went to watch these in my home city of Liverpool at the Cavern club, obviously made famous by the BEATLES, they done a BEATLES tribute, they we're absolutely knock out, these guys are from the Philippines, they also do a a brilliant BEE GEES tribute 🇬🇧.

    Of all the reactors, I think you are the best there is! You are very observant and turns them into eloquent appreciation of the band's playing technicalities. Plus the fact that your facial expressions and comments appear so honest without actually overdoing it to impress. Props to you bro! Hope to hear more reactions from you! 🇵🇭

      They're probably one of the best cover bands, yes, but I wouldn't say they are the best band, especially there are loads of great bands in the PH who perform their own original music. Ben&Ben, IV of Spades, The Juans, are just a few among contemporary ones. Then there's Juan dela Cruz Band, The Dawn, Eraserheads, Asin, APO Hiking Society, etc. the lilst goes on and on...

    They are all lead vocalists, just depends on which songs they're playing. If it's the Bee Gees, the drummer does the lead vocals, if it's Beatles, the bassist and the acoustic guitarist do the lead vocals. Hahaha these brothers are insanely talented! All their band covers are amazing - Beatles, The Beach Boys, Bee Gees, America, Alan Parsons Project, etc. My personal fave is their cover of Sirius/Eye in the Sky.

But seeing how they played and sing, they remind me of my mom’s brothers. So I was thinking, “They play like my uncles” only to realize they really are from the same province where my mom grew up. I discovered a new group thru watching your channel. Thanks! Jammin’ time 🤘🏼

    It's really hard singing and playing lead guitar at the same time esp if you're doing the exact same thing that Mark Knofpler had done in the recording. It's much easier if he had just winged it and did his own licks on the guitar while singing. RJ is a music genius. Watch him do the entire orchestra section while singing the Beatles' Pennylane. I think they must be one of the best tribute band - not a cover band - in the planet right now. Great reaction as always, man. 👌
