Last Night Was The End Of The World old school

[@tuckerslaughter2662]

When I go down the slide as a kid 0:01

[@rwearing1754]

This tenor has the tone my daddy had when he was a young man. God I miss Dear Ole Dad...

[@josephtattum6365]

Joe Connelly has such a unique voice. Of all barbershop voices, his is the one that I instantly go, "Hey there's Joe".

[@josephtattum6365]

I love that they make you anticipate each chord just a little bit longer than you think. Awesome performance.

[@Liamj774]

this is my favorite performance of this song. gets me every time.

[@Bass1923]

Good old fashion chord worship! Lock and ring. Consonant sound. This is why I got into Barbershop. I miss Old School.

[@TempestTenor]

The bass-baritone slide at 2:53 makes me giggle with glee every time.

[@vultabult]

This is easily the best I have ever heard this song before. Incredible.

[@MuleFace100]

'Tis the very definition of "chord worship". I love it!

[@DanGross_MusicJournalism]

All of these guys put on a master class on how to properly sing each of their respective parts in this clip.

[@largefella]

The bass/bari slide around 2:49 is so SICK! WOW...

[@brockjarrett789]

On the penultimate chord he was belting his note because on that particular part of that chord the tenor should be heard pretty well and then on the third the tenor should be up and out. And Kip's the freaking MASTER so obviously he executed the entire song perfectly :)

[@kippb]

Very nice comment for sure...I am late to the party this was years ago hahaha

[@jjaagg5050]

Old School just won the International Barbershop Harmony competition! Way to go guys!

[@bhsbass]

Kipp Buckner makes me smile at the tags he sings!

[@chern034]

@TempestTenor there is actually a very good reason for him to switch to falsetto on the last note, it has to do with overtones and harmonics

[@kippb]

This was like 1am after the shows!!!!!

[@BarbershopHero]

Can't wait for international! Please sing this song at some point! :)

[@rogerdotlee]

Indeed. Congrats to OS for taking it all this year.

[@josephtattum6365]

This lead part is so difficult. It doesn't sound it but to lock all the chords and stay right on it with all the long notes is hard

[@Nuance5]

The echo at the end of the verse (1:50) is from The Raps. Otherwise it's Buz Haeger's chart.

[@camlambert2219]

2:45- the best slide on the history of the society

[@wyzzardfamily]

@TempestTenor i would agree. he did back down, but really locked it in at about 4:10. sick.

[@mattdre88]

Very clean finish.

[@bschwartzberg]

anyone else notice how Joe's Buttons are the shiniest things up there?

[@tdubasdfg]

That is a beast of a tag

[@TempestTenor]

1) Love the super-low inversion V chord at 1:45. 2) Is it just me or did Kipp tighten up a bit on the second to last chord which forced him to play it safe on the last chord?

[@kippb]

Trying to balance the last 3rd...oh yeah and it was 1am at an afterglow after 2 shows that day....juts sayin hahaha

[@nicktedeschi1973]

Does anybody know where someone can find sheet music for this?

[@tigerman4]

Mid Atlantic has a new Gold Medalist !!! OLD SCHOOL !!!!

[@tigerman4]

I have spoken to rick...he wont say...kip Buckner from the Gas House Gang...sheeeesh....

[@vanish129]

That slide was dark and sick!!! 2:49!!

[@agnathas]

This has been my dad's song for last 20+ years. They're quartet is much stronger.

[@Derickbass]

Joe is so good they named a disease ofter him!

[@TempestTenor]

Whoops, the term "low inversion" is not correct. It should be "low voicing" instead. It's actually a really really low Chinese 7th chord. Could have used more 7th from the Bari =)

[@gormanation]

changing from full voice to falsetto he just had to find the lock

[@kippb]

Not fals but mix....close enough! Thanks for the compliment

[@drayktwo]

Awesome song, awesome quartet. I think it was a style choice to go back to falsetto for the final chord and I think it worked out fine. Although it didn't kinda fake you out though didn't it? :)

[@2006nationalchamps]

HEY what happen to ricly taylor?

[@jameshvidding92]

That's not Joe Connelly!!

[@jay_jadhav2812]

00:02 forgs at rainy night

[@banjohappy]

Does anybody have the Four Renegades (1965 champs) version of this to put up? It's much better than this one.

[@brockjarrett789]

@TempestTenor

[@TheDDe9]

@agnathas I demand proof

[@paulgardner6239]

Old School were an obvious example how real, proper barbershop could "Live" against modern quartets jazz/pop/soul of the moment ( It's 2022 as I write this ) We need another quartet to form in this decade to remind the younger singers WHY we were made a Society in 1938.

[@BryNet1028]

Is the audience dead? WOW...I mean..I would have been up on my feet after that tag...and this audience is horrible...

[@kippb]

1am afterglow after 2 shows that day

[@2006nationalchamps]

im sorry that tenors ok but ricky taylor was a better tenor on that tag

[@kippb]

Agreed

[@jportell100]

I love the song, but they hath turned it into a dirge....

[@kippb]

Ouch
