Five Iron Frenzy - Reese Roper - Rockumentary MUST SEE!

[navsquid32]

I saw them live 13 times.

[koyangi417]

I first saw them on July 17, 1997. I did not know what to expect because I had only heard "A Flowery Song" on the radio, but loved it. I actually won tickets on the radio to that show, but almost didn't get to go. I am so glad I was able to though, it was amazing. I saw them in concert maybe half a dozen times. It was always so much fun. I really miss them...

(FYI: TBH, the Jars song does seem a little odd with the vid.)

[SuperJonk]

Reese I love you man.. you helped me understand 'hallelujah' in a totally different way.. you are an amazing man of God even when you're feeling like hell

[ag72]

Great song! need more like this one! God Bless every one reading this NOW! & those that need love unconditional love in there lives! may you ALL have>>> Happy Holidays..Merry Christmas!

[Tromben120]

Goodness, I miss FIF so much!

[makoseda]

i like what he's saying. and as an added bonus, his soul patch makes his chin look big. like Hellboy. lol. who also fears and respects God.

[gruntsbaneook]

I wish Five Iron Frenzy could reunite, do a few shows and make one last recorded album. I think that the End is Near reached perfection, and I just wished that they made all songs as good and as funky as Wizard Needs Food Badly or , which I think was really well done. Lyrically, Reese Roper shines in Brave Saint Saturn, which is a band I admire.

[Freedomcall82]

He is the true man of God. There will only be 1 Reese Roper. I cannot wait to see him in glory. I never got to see his band play years ago and I miss him because i live so far away. God bless reese and FIF!

[manchesterlifefan007]

So true Reese is such an amazing tool of God.

[CaramelLipstick]

Why play a Jars of Clay song for a Five Iron Frenzy video? Doesn't seem right.

[ehhno0]

I agree, something like "Every new day" would be more fitting

[bagrunner92]

i want their freakin dvd :(

[Rawk4Life]

I guess this is the closest we'll come to seeing a DVD for the end is near. Micah Ortega said there'd be one for it just a year following the 2-Disc release of The End is Here. There was going to be a full concert, behind the scenes, and 5 music videos. Whatever happened to that project?

[MarkMark6464]

Oh man . I love those guys. I never saw them live. I was introduced a month after their last show... sad stuff. FIF showed me the world. CHECK out my vids of new brave saint LIVE.

[DeCoNzMe]

done, done and done.. thanx for sharing. hope you liked my video. too bad you missed out on their shows.. they were so good! I miss them :-(

[RitaTaylor77]

oh yeah my friend was in love with Jeff the girl!!!!!!

[RitaTaylor77]

FIF rocks!!!!!! they're awesome......i'm so missing them tonight........that's why i'm here watching their videos......

Best Band that has ever existed

[FretzFrenzy]

man I'd love to see this on a Five Iron DVD

I would crap.

I did hear that there will be one eventually. Like, look at the newest BSS, It was speculated for at least 2 years. Finally happened on 9-15-08. So, hold on to your pants (even if their not yours) Five Iron Fans.. a dvd awaits: music vids, concert footage.. flippen awesome!

[manchesterlifefan007]

Oh God Bless Five Iron Frenzy!

[ptobes]

He's got dip in his mouth at the beginning. lol  Awesome.

[JResc2010]

he wouldn't do that.

[1337Varaka]

Awesome video. I loved the Jars Of Clay song. :)

[hsdtech]

New braveSaintSaturn stuff is out now!

[DeCoNzMe]

I got it like a week ago :-)

[trevorfarr]

If you got to the brave saint saturn message board there is an ask Reese thread. someone asked him and thats when he said it was coming out!

[skavoovie22]

Yeah..I just discovered all of that stuff tonight. Sorry for being such a stooge. I'm glad they're going with Asianman so I can support to of my favorite groups with one purchase! I wonder what would happen if Mike and Reese started a band...I don't think I can wrap my mind around that. I don't think it would compliment very well.

[trevorfarr]

WHAAAAT? Where did you get that? I love finding new five iron footage! Cant wait for the DVD.......Supposed to be out for christmas on Asian Man Records! Cant wait!!

Thanks for uploading.

[DeCoNzMe]

I filmed and edited that from footage i shot on their final tour.

[skavoovie22]

Where did you hear that about the DVD? I haven't heard or read any new updates about the DVD since Reese updated his myspace a few months ago. Mike hasn't said anything about it in the Asianman newsletter either.

[DeCoNzMe]

I have yet to hear anything about it comin out. I hope we hear sometime soon. -Jim

[ooklah23]

for reals?

[skavoovie22]

Thanks a lot for posting this. I've never seen any of that stuff on video before.

[DeCoNzMe]

you are very welcome... I just want others to know how great these guys are. please let people know about this video. and don't forget about the new Brave Saint Saturn CD! Five Irons side project.

[skavoovie22]

Yeah, I preordered it a few months ago. I'm very excited. It's been a really long time since they announced it in about '03 so I have a LOT of excitement built up. I know its going to be awesome! FIF and BS2 really touched my life in a way no one else did. I felt and still feel like I can relate to what they're saying, like they know everything I've gone through. It hits home for me.

[DeCoNzMe]

i know exactly how you feel, same for me. I listened to them for years.. and if it weren't for them i wouldn't be christian. They also had a big hand in why I'm still alive. now at 27 years old, i still have a huge respect for them. I guess in some strange way i felt i owe them a lot for helping make me who i am today. Isn't it strange how much impact a simple song, or concert can have on a kid... or grown up for that matter too.

[lonelydrumr]

true, very true. i couldn't say it better myself man - i'm 23, been listening to them since i was 10... it seems like idk where i'd be without that influence that directed me for so long.

[masterj22]

im 22 and a 4 year old christian, and five iron helped me out alot with my walk so far, and they might not of took me to the right path, but they led me to the guy that did, thaks fif for letting jesus use you, and thank you for showing me jesus, and thank you maker of this vid for making this vid.

[DeCoNzMe]

your more than welcome. I loved making this, and Five Iron plaied much the same role in my life as yours from what i can tell. Take care man -Jim

[ooklah23]

awesome!
