Kevin Keller can do anything in barbershop. Masterful singer, performer, arranger, coach, and human. This performance highlights so much of the musicality and heart he has given us over the years.
I was there when they sang this. I was in the nose bleed section, feeling like they were singing to me. My first international experience. Gave me chills.
Great performance, and of course, a terrific chart from Steve Armstrong. Didn't realize until now that this set of songs is what TNL ended up singing a year later in Louisville. Huh.
Have scanned a few comments in the last day. Of course Chuck was great. But as a watched it again just now the other three were really good in their roles. They featured the lead, stayed out of his way, had their own "stuff" and especially vocally, did not get in the way but were totally committed to letting him tell story mostly. Seemed like such a sturdy ring from the three that he could play!! My first judging assignments I judged a quartet with Joe in it, perhaps from Peoria? That's where the contest was also. What a great bass...and tenor...and bari....Congrats to all. I'm just guessing as I didn't judge this contest, but if they'd had five this strong...?

This made me cry.
That's a medallist performance! Brilliantly done!

Oh man this rings!
this is a presentation masterclass.
first time seeing this quartet! i love it!
I agree with Paul. I am glad I said so when I saw Chuck Sisson outside the arena that day!
In case anyone is unclear, THAT is the good shit right there!
I always felt they were medalists. Joe is a beast!
I never knew Joe Krones was in this group
