Great reaction! It's SO funny that they didn't know that Adam was finished. lol They left the one guy that NEVER gets to talk out there on stage by himself. lol
They say, "never meet your heros." Well, I think these guys break that rule, because I think they are just exactly who they appear to be. Hard working, fun loving, grateful for having the opportunity to live their dreams, humble, decent, and appreciative of their fans. A lot of entertainers succumb to the arrogance of "celebrity." I see none of that here. Instead of egos, and drama, and infighting seen with so many celebrities, they live like family, treating everyone with respect and humor and enjoying themselves. I think if I met Home Free (my heros) I don't think I'd be one bit disappointed.
As an "old geezer," I haven't been a "Fanboy" for a long time, but these guys just seem so real, and grounded. They don't take themselves seriously, but they sure could. So the music, the personalities, and their commitment to us Home Fries, has made me a card carrying Home Fry Fanboy. haha. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Best reaction you have 👍 really appreciate and admire these group for all their hardwork to share their amazing talents to us fans ❤️God bless all of them and you too for sharing these videos👏👏👏
During "The Sing Off" you saw five guys on an RV doing everything themself (setup, tear down, everything). The more success they have the larger the "army" they need to give us the shows. Many of them are family (or have become family) over time I'm sure. When it's family there is a level of trust (unless, of course, it's like family that has overstayed it's welcome and hasn't arrived yet). Seeing Tim's wife scrambling to get a bus driver when their primary driver quit due mostly to exhaustion because the scope of the tour changed and suddenly there were more shows in a shorter period of time was enlighting as well. She needs to be nominated for sainthood as the road manager. These "Home Away From Home" episodes really give you a "behind the music" view of exactly how hard it is. Making the songs and arrangements is a full time job. Recording is exhausting. With a band you're always worried about road plague (one gets it and passes it to everyone else). In an acapella group it's even worse in many ways as it's like hearing a song that's missing 20% of the words. Great reaction as always Pat.
You are so right! This one gives a whole new appreciation for the work they put into the shows, so that we can come and get so much enjoyment out of it.
meeting_meghan Oh! I must have seen it mistyped somewhere. I just looked at the files on the Home Free Vocal Band Fan page on FB and saw that you’re correct! Thanks for the info!
I love these HAFH videos! All we ever see is the glitz glamour and fun of their shows...but wow when you see what they go thru on a daily basis on tour...its a real eye opener! That's why we all love them so much....they always give a 110% to the fans!
So Tim was born in 81. Darren appeared not only in Grandma got run over by a Reindeer but also 2 videos shot in the studio - Auld Lang Syne and God Blessed Texas. You definitely need to see part 2 of the European Tour video. Seeing some of the things they had to deal with during the pandemic. Love that you react to these! Great reaction!
I enjoy these video's. It exciting and enlightening to see how much it takes to put a show together. The travel alone would wear on any human, but they do it for their fans. I laughed so hard about them leaving Adam out to dry on stage. The one person who very rarely talks in public, and he's stuck out there for almost 30 minutes? lol! And poor Chance. He was so sick he could barely hold his head up, but he pushed through it, for the fans. Got to love him, for that alone. Oh...and btw- Tim will be 39 this July, so he was born in 1981. Thanks, I love these.
I really enjoy these videos...you learn more about them with each one. Though I know logically that touring takes a lot of work these videos make it so real. The concerts I’ve been to always seem to go flawlessly...videos like this really show what it takes. Looking forward to your next reaction.
Always fun to see the boys offstage. I hope they do a video about how they produced the great music they have released while quarantined. It sounds like it was produced in a studio, but each part was done completely separate.
Big yes. I think I have hemorrhoids older than Tim is. The line "it's not the age it's the mileage" well some of us have wrapped the odometeter a few times more than others. When you're from a time when TV didn't come in colour (and I'm Canadian, we put U's after O's in a lot of things) and westerns were considered progressive, well, I think you understand.
Great to get more Home Away from Home videos, I'm loving these, thank you. Tim got his shirt made for a friend of his who is a Minnesota Vikings fan, he's the one who was born in 1988, if you notice, it doesn't say Foust either. Austin is a fan of the team the Vikings were playing against (the Atlanta Falcons, I think) but as you saw, the Vikings had a very good match. It was fun to see them in the studio - they were recording in Nashville before they left for Australia, but presumably Rob and Adam recorded in Minnesota, which is why they aren't in that video. As for the Europe video - Sami filmed too much footage to go in one video, though that was definitely a cliff-hanger. To start with they uploaded a version without To Be Continued, and had to re-upload it, as so many people were confused. It was definitely worrying, as we followed them across Europe on social media, and realised that they might have to cancel... But it really is good, both to see some more of what is involved in touring, and to see the sense of fun and family that comes across through the hard work.
I love that they all get along like family. but i am sure there are times, when one gets on another ones nerves. Just like a family does. 5 men and whoever else stuck in a bus for 20 hours has got to be hard. love your reactions, been a subcriber for a long time now. Stay safe.
omgosh watching these guys act like kids is funny until you realize some of those dudes are parents! lolz not that they shouldn't act that way but its still funny to think about until they break themselves doing something and then have to explain it to the kiddos!
Humour and joy at life isn't restricted to the young (though they have more energy to illustrate it than those of us who's age is measured by carbon dating). When you're young it may just 'happen' more often but when you're older you notice it more (and probably appreciate it more). Smiles are contagious too and evening smiling behind a mask most people know (at least you do and if you're happy enough to smile it's a good day).
There’s a sequel to this one next showing how they reacted to the quarantine after they came back to the U.S., and their thoughts on the quarantine and how it will affect them individually and the group. I really loved this one! There was some funny stuff until the pandemic hit. I loved your reaction! I know you’ve seen them live!
he has to be older than that! in this you don't see it but since they've been quarantined his hair is as gray as mine and i grayed early but im nearly 50! lol
Great reaction! It's SO funny that they didn't know that Adam was finished. lol They left the one guy that NEVER gets to talk out there on stage by himself. lol

Who else noticed Austin doing the 'dirty bird'?

I felt ANCIENT when I saw Tim was born in 1988. I graduated from high school in '88. Wow!
Tim was born in 1981. He is one year younger than my daughter who was born in 1980.
Tim was actually born in 1981.
Adam Rupp was also born in 1981. The others’ were accurate!
@@bethcoussou No Adam was born in 82. Plus he said Jenika was off by 3 years.
I'm thinking Tim was given 88 cause there is a player that wears 81 so he couldn't have it.
meeting_meghan Oh! I must have seen it mistyped somewhere. I just looked at the files on the Home Free Vocal Band Fan page on FB and saw that you’re correct! Thanks for the info!
Amazing what they go through.

Umm no Tim was actually born in '81 but they didn't say anything about that lol 😂
Tim was born July 19th 1981 so he's 39 years old. I love your reaction to a lot of there videos. These guys are awesome.
I really enjoy these videos...you learn more about them with each one. Though I know logically that touring takes a lot of work these videos make it so real. The concerts I’ve been to always seem to go flawlessly...videos like this really show what it takes. Looking forward to your next reaction.

Yes, when you are 20+ years older than other people, it can make you feel old.
Big yes. I think I have hemorrhoids older than Tim is. The line "it's not the age it's the mileage" well some of us have wrapped the odometeter a few times more than others. When you're from a time when TV didn't come in colour (and I'm Canadian, we put U's after O's in a lot of things) and westerns were considered progressive, well, I think you understand.
Tim should had 81

Tim was born July 19 1981
Who would have know tim is only 33 .... oh man hes 7yrs younger than me!!
Tim was born in '81, not '88.
Great reaction
I feel so old; I graduated high school in 88.
So did I!!!! I 'm officially OLD.
I love that they all get along like family. but i am sure there are times, when one gets on another ones nerves. Just like a family does. 5 men and whoever else stuck in a bus for 20 hours has got to be hard. love your reactions, been a subcriber for a long time now. Stay safe.

Can you do a reaction video to Home Free's Meet in the Middle...??? Love ur reactions!!
Darren Rust is also part of The Blenders. They left us in a tight spot. Usually I love these and I enjoyed this one until the end there. Thanks! ^_^

I really loved this one! There was some funny stuff until the pandemic hit. I loved your reaction! I know you’ve seen them live!
Well.... it was an unforgettable show.. so if they come back to Gothenburg, im definitely gonna see them again .😁
he has to be older than that! in this you don't see it but since they've been quarantined his hair is as gray as mine and i grayed early but im nearly 50! lol
He was born in 1981
@@shortybarnesyanik my son was born in 1984! I guess that makes me ancient!
Tim is the oldest and Austin is the youngest in the group.
Great reaction gosh they put a lot of work into their shows

Enjoy watching your reactions. They have a new video, Meet Me In The Middle. It's great, can't wait to see your reaction to it
Have you ever done any Billie Eilish reactions? I’d love to see you do some. Happy to suggest songs. Peace from a fellow Aussie reactor ❤️
what fun
