  7. I’d PAY to see these guys perform !! For you ‘doubters’ ….it depends on how much LIQUID is in each bottle to get the desired note !! NOT fake !!

  9. Enjoyed the Music… I have heard “bottle” music before the church gives it a unique sound.

  20. If the church allowed it, why wouldn’t you? There’s great acoustics in some of those halls.

  26. didn’t see them drinking – but so what if they were – they didn’t appear to drunk just having a good time making music.

  29. Yes, of course it depends on how much liquid is in the bottle. But the sound they are producing is not quite the same as that produced from bottles. The timbre does not match.

  31. Fake or real, who cares, it was for real entertaining. Some of you need to ease up. This type of entertainment has been around a long time. I am looking for more from them.

  34. Look a little closer – that “drum” is the large water bottle the main guy caught then threw behind him – wonder what Michael would have thought of this rendition! I think it was great!!

  35. If it’s real, very talented. I suspect it’s all fake. sound is edited in… notice how never a single missed note, or time when they didn’t blow “right” and have sort of a “thud” noise.

  36. absolutely awesome music, that is some real talent you boys have there. Love the sound , and I can’t believe all that came out of a few bottles. You guys are amazing.

  39. Hey Emma, I lived in Germany for 11 years. Best beers are made by monasteries. The monks do good work.

  41. I bet he drank beer too. One of the oldest beer recipes comes from Egypt! 🙂 I see no reason not to create music in the church, and if you object to beer bottles.. please this is 2014 not the dark ages. They could have used other glass bottles, but it might not have sounded quite the same. I’m sure thickness of the glass probably provides a nice timbre quality.

  42. Awesome ! Absolutely fabulous. Talk about job creation at his best ! Loved the perfect pitch on this bottles and the reverb in the church.

  44. As for the pop-up add “do you support Obama” I voted no, he’s destroying this country and his open border policy will ultimately tear this country apart. Where’s the outrage at the thousands of central and south american children that are being shipped here and Obama is asking for a billion dollars in order to feed and house them? My question is why aren’t they being turned away at the border? For those of you who support this border envasion, keep in mind that these children will eventually be accepted into universities ahead of your own child. Affirmative Action is not dead……

  45. That is most cool. But that piece was not made after downing that many beers. :)))

  55. I’m sending it on to my nephew, the Master Brewer at Port Huron Brewing in Wi. Dells. Loved it. Thanks Jennifer

  58. I wonder if discriminating against our own species is the optimum evolutionary strategy…..(?.!)

  59. The best beers in the world are brewed in monasteries. Some orders used to fast for a month at a time, but they could drink beer, the only potable beverage available, without limit and got their calories to live and work from it.

  60. Oh my stars how creative ! The HolySpirit is jammin so is God and Jesus. Hey who do you think created music, sounds air yea rock on boys !!!!

  62. Pop-ads are different for everyone, depending on where you’ve been recently online…sites you’ve visited, items you’ve been researching before buying etc. The ad I saw was for education…

  63. Disagree, everyone gets an opinion. I happen to disagree with yours. It sounded proper to me, I’ve been around people that have attempted this, never got it but the sound was the same.

  65. That was great! I really enjoyed that and also would like to volunteer for the next time they need a bunch of empty beer bottles…although it must be hard to drink just the right amount out of each one ;^) As far as I can tell the “bass line” is split up between the two outer guys in the back row. I’m sure they could have gotten the same sound from soda bottles in a gymnasium…but who cares!

  67. Moeskido, WHY do you like that they did this in a church? In my opinion this is a sacrilege (oh, forgive me America no longer believes in Christ and therefore NOT A CHRISTIAN NATION)!

  68. The structure of the church enhances the sound. These guys have a talent that goes far beyond be average person. Enjoyed every minute of it.

  69. Francesco, this is not a forum for your political views. It’s supposed to be about the music. Enjoy the creativity and lighten up for Pete’s sake!!

  70. these men are extremely talented and doing something original and entertaining. what is the obsession with the location whilst overlooking the obvious talent? and as to anyone thinking they may have been drunk, how on earth do you think they managed such a clever and complex piece of music? these guys were SOBER! for heavens wake up and smell the coffee!

  71. “It is not what goes into your mouth that defiles you, it is what comes out of it.” — Remember who said that.

  73. I’m sure they didn’t do this in one take. If you missed a note or had a thud noise, would you publish it? Lighten up – give them some credit,

  74. I must have missed the verse where it says it is sacrilege to drink beer in a church. Aren’t some monks known for the quality of wine and/or beer they can produce? Don’t be so uptight.

  76. I think it is Christians that are the folk that worship a wine maker.
    Stan

  78. Of course they did it in church. That’s how we know there’s a God, because he gave man the ability to brew beer….except Moosehead, that was the Devil’s work.

  81. Lets say of he drank all of the beer chances are he might get drunk after that a big headache I know these things.

  82. Its sixteen minutes after 10, plus 27 seconds (on the watch). The brand labels have been removed from the bottles (in order to protect the corporate innocent). The braver ones hold mere ‘six-packs’ but a bolder one holds an ‘eight-pack’ (where in the Sam Hill can you get an ‘8-pack’, anyway?).
    Respectfully submitted for your approval:
    Five men gather together in an empty building (call it a church or call it an empty tomb of lost loves; as is your particular choice of venue). These men have TWO things in common: They all like to empty beer bottles, and (as strange as it might seem) they ALL have ex-girlfiends who happen to share the same first name of ‘Billie Jean’.
    What happens next is the stuff of lost hopes and aspirations; and the despirited calling of a long-dead pop-music icon in a theatrical expose that can only be understood in:
    The TWILIGHT ZONE…

    My apologies and my fealty to those such as Rod Serling, for looking like I am mocking this magnificent display of talent and creativity.

  84. What the hell is the matter with people. Does it really matter where the music is coming from? Its great music. You should only be offended or concerned if they were dancing and singing on the bodies of dead babies. Get a life, smell the roses, enjoy the music.

  86. Just close your eyes and enjoy the good musical talent of these guys,the best so far and comes from empty bottles!!!Congratulations

  88. These guys definitely knew why the group, consisting of c,g & e-flat, was thrown out of the bar. Great technical skills and enthusiasm.

  89. How can people get hung up on the “where” the Bottle Boys did this, instead of marveling at the fabulous talent these guys display playing a tune on bottles. Amazing!

  90. Ingenious ,very talented,and who sayed thy drink all the beer.
    A person that is very impress by you guys.
    Keep going and Bonne chance

  95. The beer was to help them remove the bad memories and the taste in their mouth that the priest left them with; X choir boys.

  99. Great loved it let there be many more talented people in this world. We need you

  100. Thoroughly enjoyed this. I bet it took a long time to learn to even play those bottles.

  105. the problem with this country and the attitude of people is there is no joy this was fun no reason for all the angry comments. This was just fun but as usual there is criticism and judgement. No wonder we get nothing done in this country everyone is so divisive

  108. Why recycle when you can : MAKE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC, THAT WAS GREAT, THANK YOU!

  109. Like the saying goes… I’d rather have a beer in front of me than a frontal lobotomy… This was too good!

  110. I think rather than Michael “rolling over in his grave” this would probably make him smile. He never piddled with those kids and I miss him.

  115. They MUST be Australian!!! 😀 Nobody else worships beer enough to do that with empty bottles!!! (-j/k-)

  117. This is truly amazing and who would have thought about having an entire band of bottles!!! Oh, sure have played around with one!!!! Great creative talent!

  118. I loved it! These guys are great.. I wonder how long they had to practice to get the sound they wanted. They should make a commercial…

  119. Fantastic. If it takes drinking more beer for this talent – so be it.

  124. When Jesus turned the water into wine, I bey they didn’t all say: “Wow, Jesus, you sure do make good grape juice”.

  125. Getting back to the subject at hand; these guys are excellent at what they do and what they’ve put together for this video. I’ll never look at an empty beer bottle in the same light again.

  126. The BREW-HA-HA you two started has EVERYONE here missing the point:
    Beer aficionado: Michael Jackson
    Billie Jean by: Michael Jackson
    COINCIDENCE?!?!?!?!?

  127. Gee there is hope for good music after all.

    A bunch of highly talented guys, not singing about all the vile things they want to do to their women or police, not full of disgusting tattoos (well at least not visible), and guys who look like they are familiar with soap and water, and taking some great music and performing it not only differently but very well.

  128. No Margaret, he just hates anything which does not degrade society like the scum of the earth rappers, Hip-Hop who would not know a bar of soap if it fell on their heads or who love to sing about all the degrading things they want to do to women and police.

  130. I will show this to the church bell choir. Who knows? We may want to branch off into performance music.

  134. That is the most creative musical rendition of Jackson’s hit there is on the planet, in my humble opinion!

  137. lol – guess you never heard the song Craig Christ or you would never say that! Oh well – can’t expect everyone to be enlightened.

  140. OK, won’t argue it. What ever they are doing, I enjoyed it a lot.

  143. AHAHAHAHAH That is funny! Wait until I show this comment to my husband who drinks Moosehead. I agree, that stuff is ugly. hahah

  144. That could be true – but in any case – I thought the beer bottle serenade was great – regardless of where it was recorded – and that was my point – 🙂

  145. Absolutely great. These guys are talented and innovative. All of you who feel that it was a problem because it was done in a church (pipe organ in background) lighten up, ’cause nothing indicates that the beer was consumed on the premises. Further, one of the classic R&R songs was done in a cathedral, ‘A Whiter Shade of Pale – Procul Harum’ because of the great acoustics, as someone else pointed out about these buildings.

  147. Folks, me thinks you take things to seriously, it was a joke. Everyone knows they drink wine in church, those priests just love it.

  149. Wow! Gives a whole new meaning to the word “creative.” That’s talent!

  153. Talent is talent, and music is awesome. who said they drank the beer, you can just get the bottles. I collect cans, and many are beer cans, I didnt drink out of them. so dont judge, if they drank the beer, its what they did with the empty bottles that’s the awesome part. Good Job, and hope it continues too. As for it being in a Church, best acoustics there are, and it makes a difference in sound quality, so for those who are on their high horse about religion, sit on it!

  157. Fool! read the whole post and you’ll get the point – no one mentioned organized dogma! Sheesh! Some people are always ready to jump the gun against religion. Obviously you too never heard the song “CraigChrist” – and are unenlightened!

  158. When Jesus turned the water into wine, I bet they didn’t say: “Ooooh, Jesus, you show do make some good grape juice.”

  159. Do you seriously think they could have played the bottles after drinking them. That is not easy to do and they did it very well!

  160. I don’t care what type of bottle they are using. They are fantastic.

  162. Who cares what they drank or where. They are quite talented. No one commented on their talent. Shame on all for getting into all the drinking comments

  165. Call me skeptic but that seems to well done to be real. If they really performed that with just bottles, kudos.

  167. It’s called being creative and non judgemental. If they are not huring anyone being respectfull who cares what they use to create music. I try my best to surround myself with positive, creative, caring and uplifting human beings. Not always an easy thing to do. Congratulations for having fun and for thinking outside the box. As far as doing it in our out of a church most people have the wrong concept of “church.” God created those individuals who in fact created the music. It is not our job to judge why they are in the church. The back drop of churches have been used for many things and God did not begin inside a building. So lets look at the positive side of what is here. And before you negative people out there say I am living in a dream world, I am not. Life is challenging, hard, frustrating and hurtful. I work very hard to keep peace and harmony around me. Not an easy task. I know there are people out there who enjoy being mean spirited, putting people down, being closed in their thinking. So drink beer, wine and anything else responsibly. Moderation in all things.

  169. Really clever and very musical! Nice work, guys. And it took a lot of work to refine. I think, perhaps, the comments below represent envy. Great acoustics – love the pipe organ inspiration.

  174. Not the Michael Jackson everyone knew! This was a different genre and I really enjoyed it a lot. Everything about it! The talent, the unique musical sound that came from these boys and the church setting. Just Great!

  175. I’m amazed that they can play that good after drinking all that beer

  177. The recipe is far older the that from Egypt. GOD gave Noah a recipe and told him how much to put on the ARK.

  179. Fantastic! Note that you don’t have to be a drinker to obtain beer bottles. Many years ago I played the Blue Danube on bottles and tiny jars by tapping them with a spoon, but this is much better. Well done! Janhmelb.

  180. You need to be on America’s Got Talent!!!!! You’d win for sure! Incredible!!!

  181. They didn’t drink it in church, just played joyful music. Besides they are probably just good Catholic boys anyway. 🙂

  183. Nothing to see here – just a replay of the way we turned away Jewish children during WWII. A classic American case of NIMBY. And I have NO idea what it has to do with the beer bottles.

  186. My guess is they have a Germany’s Got Talent. They could definitely win!

  187. We’re too old school. When we finish the beer, we make a beer run. lol

  189. You guys missed Mark’s humour. The idea of all the beer being finished is what he doesn’t want to experience. 🙂

  190. Not that I feel I owe the likes of YOU an explanation, but you clearly missed the point of my post. I was responding to the original poster in this thread, not the story. You really should put down the bible and wipe the bias out of your eyes before you attempt to name-call and criticize. You simple end up looking foolish otherwise.

  191. Hi guys!
    Here is a comment of a real german, and a real beer-drinker.
    You are the best!
    I never heard and seen something better!

  193. re read my post fool! Or better yet – just look up the song Craig Christ – then you’ll know what I was referring too – and surely is not the bible.

  196. Totally AWESOME! What Talent….and my favorite man’s songs…Michael Jackson….King of Pop! Loved this….lol

  197. Do not forget that they had to precisely refill (am assuming not with recycled beer) those bottles to get the right frequencies and resonance. Am certain they were sober by the time they got in tune.

  200. That was amazing, but they would have a better chance of getting laid if they were singing. ha.

  201. They certainly have great ears for intonation to tune the bottles to proper pitches….all in all, very talented…..good job, very creative.

  203. Believe each bottle had a certain amount of beer to make the tone. So not finished all the beer! Enjoyed!

  204. What’s with, all, the negative comments ? These guys are STUPENDOUS ! I don’t know when I’ve enjoyed anything that much. Many kudos, guys ! ! Keep it up ! ! ! 😀

  206. i guess there used to sticking black and brown hard things in their mouths

  207. “Beer is God’s way of showing us he loves us and wants us to be happy” — Benjamin Franklin. Now, you wouldn’t want to disagree with Ol’ Ben, would you? HIC

  209. Looks fake 2 me.
    I don’t see anyone doing the base melody… they used recording for that?

  210. it’s music not lurid drinking. No one was drunk. they were bright eyed and entertaining.

  211. Totally Awesome!! I am a retired Science Teacher and I once played Mary Had a Little Lamb on test tubes for my classes and they loved it and I even got applause. You guys are amazing and really talented!!! Thanks for sharing!

  212. GOOD GRIEF!!! Can’t believe that this has almost become a religious discussion!! This is simply music from empty beer bottles! Who cares, or who knows, who drank the beer? Perhaps they poured it down the sink! This is not about the beer! It’s about the music!

  215. these guys should be on the collage circuit. There quite a few greeks who could practice this.

  216. They are good and very talented, count your blessing that the young are still using a church or else it would convert into a mosque !!! And then forget about church and music. As for this type of critics I say ” Stupid is as stupid does ” end of story ! !

  217. Extreme talent….has nothing to do with beer…great job guys! FYI my biz page is Lake Tahoe Entertainment. Would love to post your act there!

  219. That’s about the same amount of beer it takes me to get creative, as well.

  222. Once again…Lighten up. Why can’t people keep their mouths shut if they don’t have anything nice to say? If it does not adhere to your beliefs…stop reading and delete.

  225. Reaches the parts of the mind other beers cannot reach.

    Probably the best beer bottle music in the world….

  228. Much of the world’s great music was created for church’s and religious reasons. And Moeskido is right, the acoustics for music in most church’s are fantastic.

  229. Ha ha,….try and tell that to the Highway Patrol or your local police department.

    “Officer, I was just following my doctor’s orders. I just had a few beer for my health.”

    “Tell it to the judge pal.”

  230. I couldn’t agree more. Victoria B.C. is one of our favorite getaway spots. But when it comes to their brews, I’ll stick with Guiness.

  235. These guys should audition for “America’s Got Talent” or in whatever country they may live in, as various countries now have their own versions.

  242. There’s a complainer in every group 🙂 RELAX! Have a beer! I enjoyed the music, guys. Very creative!

  251. The church is a PERFECT place for Jackson music…and just think of the beer as “Jesus Juice” both Michael & The church have a Lap-Full of Experience with booze and young boy’s. Match made in heaven – so to speak.

  252. In this day and age hard to believe what is real or what is staged HOPE IT IS REAL!

  254. if you don’t drink it excessively!!! its one thing to drink it when u only drink occasionally, but when you are a raging alcoholic, its not good at all

  257. My ten year old grandson is probably more decerning than all of you. His question was, “How did they get all of the same bottles to sound different notes.” I jokingly told him that they sip tuned them. He thought I was serious and said, “No, that wouldn’t work, they’d keep going out of tune as the beer evaporated.” THIS FROM A 10 YEAR OLD!!

  260. Good God woman, get that stick out your backside. Are you also offended that they allow addicts/alcoholics inside to attend NA/AA meetings?

    Really, it’s not like they were actually drinking inside the church nor were they even close to condoning the consumption of the same.

  263. This is fake. If you study it carefully, you will find that several of the notes don’t line up with the correct bottles.

  265. Why is there a subliminal message on the screen? Does the president have to advertise everywhere?

  267. Hey, in Texas, it is acceptable behavior to ask the highway patrolman to hold your beer while you get out your driver’s license! (tongue-in-cheek!)

  268. Hai..Great Philosopher and Greatest Theologian Thomas Aquianes said “Whatever God has created..all are very good..but how we limit it…Beer is good provided you do not get drunk..Jesus drank wine..he never got DRUNK…Xavier Sppsai..London.U.K.

  270. Clever, pleasant and shows that the Church is up-to-date. Our vicar in Hertfordshire was first in the pub to order a beer after the Sunday service!

  271. Lighten up everyone! This was just about making music with something other than a traditional musical instrument! Give them credit where credit is due! they did a great job! It sounded fantastic & not a “sour” note in the entire song! And, they were not “drunk”! Just having a good time enjoying the music! Obviously, you are not music lovers b/c when you truly enjoy music, you really “get into it” by moving around & “having a good time with it”! When I hear good music, I can hardly sit still! I just want to get up and dance! It has nothing at all to do with drinking or anything like that! They just used the beer bottles to make the different levels of water to make the different notes for their music! (As well as their shakers, etc.) YIKES! JUST ENJOY IT!!!

  272. Beer commercial yes. Very talented and a great tribute to Billy Jean Micheal Jackson world wide. Totally love ya’ll

  276. You youngsters can’t remember the “towel going up “as happened quite often during the war, Beer was invented because the water was unsafe to drink not to get stupid on.

  277. I loved it!!! Talented young men with an innovative idea!

    by the way, if all you can do is complain go home and shut up thank you!
    lolll

  278. Hmmm. Pipe organ in back…someone playing only the flute rows of pipes …the guys are faking it….Nahh that couldn’t have happened….Could it???

  280. Hey these guys with empty bottles making music you actually can understand and know what the song is, beats listening to all the people that can make music with goblets filled with water.

  281. Amazing how they remember which bottles to blow into!!! Inexpensive musical “instrument” !

  282. The sound is a playback. Made in a studio. Who knows what was actually used to make the sounds. Sorry, but there it is

  290. I used to have a cheap synth that made those sounds….it was amazingly realistic- breath sound and all. My guess is that’s what they’re up to.
    Clever alright

  291. what great talent! they looked out side the box, and in the bottle, wow, really enjoyed them.

  294. Because it’s a good-looking performance space and the acoustics are terrific.

  298. RIP MJ. Don’t know if you made music from beer bottles, think you preferred Coke. Wherever you may be, your music lives on and we be JAMMING now!

  299. Great – I would definitely enjoy hearing these guys play in the St. Louis Cathedral. I’m a 79 year old grandmother living in New Orleans and really enjoy hearing music of all kinds. I works.
    At least they are not on the corner begging!!!!

  306. what makes you think they even drank the beer? is it because they are using the beer bottles? Is it because they are young, talented, good looking young men? I have friends that work for breweries and they do have access to empty bottles.. as in never used or even recycled… Maybe they are on a budget and used a church for its acoustics? They could have always used a high school band hall, right. get a grip people…

  308. Michael would have been proud and created a new foot shuffle, Now I need some ideas what that “shuffle” would be named”

  309. Why keep focusing on the drinking and not on the great music they made?? Could you do that with ANY kind of bottles??? Idiots…

  310. It’s a Catholic Church. That’s what we do. Others may not. That’s cool. It’s called religious tolerance.
    out the bill of rights.

  311. These guys are AWESOME! There’s a lot of rehearsal and practice that went into that. Excellent !!! And it looks like they had fun doing it….

  313. Now that was really cool! What talent! Go boys, go!!! I could listen to more songs any day.

  317. You might if you really cared about the integrity of your body. I hope you are joking.

  318. The church is not a building but its people who have committed to the Lord.; the building is a meeting place

  322. Lighten up on Mark, maybe his life, or someone he loves, has been negatively affected by alcohol. I think that’s all he means. I can relate in a lot of ways, although I really enjoyed the talent of these guys.

  324. I had an argument about this very point with my Sunday School teacher when I was a know-it-all 12, back in 1958. She slapped me down and continued with her lesson.

  327. that was very clever …that being said, …I think that they should’v performed somewhere other than a church…it is rather inappropriate and sacreligious…especially since it was a song by Michael Jackson who wasn’t exactly a pious person. They should have gone to “America’s got Talent” or someplace else and I don’t need to “lighten up” but rather anyone that thinks this is ok in a church…needs to not take God so lightly..

  330. The acoustics of the chapel? they are in is fabulous..unreal and very much loved by all my friends!! super talented you guys should be on America has Talent!!

  333. I wonder if the sound would be better if the empties were $40 bottles of Pinot Noir?

  336. I wish I that I had thought of something cool like that to do with beer bottles. and for those of you who don’t like it….. Could YOU do that?

  338. “Finished all the beer” NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Oh the horror, the horror…….Oh look, more beer – Crisis Over!!! (Pfshhh) Ahh, beer. 🙂

  339. Did this as a kid,simple,scale of C spit ‘tu’into bottlenose,put(Blue Smirnoff/Hennessy XO),in bottles,adjust to arrange pitch.cardboard box to hide booze? Play scale of C Sharp diminished!! Give up..get depressed,use your imagination and do the next best thing,promise you won’t give a toss after..BTW.why do you clowns have to bring “Jesus”,into this? As far as I know,He only taught peace and love,and made ,and drank wine..no mention of..And Jesus’s went forth and played a concert at at the ,wedding feast of Cana,playing,St John Smith beer bottles? Get a life !!

  342. These guys are blow-synching. The actual sound is coming from a synthesizer off camera.

  344. I don’t get why this discussion is about beer drinking and NOT about the talent it takes to do what these guys did? Not only that, in order to get these notes out of a beer bottle, one has to leave considerable beer IN the bottle.

    The people who comment about the beer and not the music, must have drunk considerable beer to comment like they did. (Shaking my head in disbelief).

  348. They were sober, great music. I’d love to hear something else by them. And, by-the-way, if it were milk bottles would everyone assume they drank all the milk – probably not. Then why assume they drank the beer? Really!

  349. If they drank all of the beer, every bottle would have exactly the same note. It’s the difference in the amount of beer left in the bottle that creates the different notes. So far nobody but me understands that or you just want to argue about getting drunk on beer and wine.

  353. Anmelden bei TALENTSHOW in Germany!!! get registered in Germany at the Talentshow!

  355. GREAT! THE GROUP MUST APPLY TO AMERICAN GOT TALENT. HAND DOWN THE WINNER. YOU GOT MY VOTE.

  357. I honestly am Astonished that the humor was missed so gravely. Even to the point of insulting Good ol’ Mark.. Hehe

  358. Why oh Why do we as humans argue about such petty things, It was cool. (Its like most people LOOK for a chance to disagree with someone or something… sorta uncool) 🙂 <3

  360. I have a heck of a time tuning my guitar; I wonder how long it took them to get all of those bottles “tuned”….and then to put those pieces together – yeah, those guys were working instead of drinking- lots of talent there.

  361. I thought they were great! Creative! Good tone quality, excellent rhythm, authentic rendition of the music, and no one was drunk, throwing up, or wearing togas! Should we not be excited that the once stereotyped, “beer guzzling white males” have found something very positive, entertaining, and non-destructive (to person or property) to do with their empty beer bottles?

  362. Doug, are you good at limbo dancing because Mark’s joke has gone right over your head!!!

  364. Come on people this is ART!
    Music made out of trash, waste bottles ,you missed the boat here, I love it!
    You have percussion pitch (sounds) It’s a perfect example of creativity…
    Wow…

  367. To those who are upset about bringing beer bottles into a church, it says that David brought a lyre into the temple, and lyring is clearly a sin, telling untruths while baring your neighbor’s wife — something like that. My advice: get over it.

  368. Oh you sozzlers, any excuse is better than none. But, I think I have to see it and hear it close up before I believe that one, particularly the high clear notes. As for the Heinekens, that is only for connoisseurs.

  371. all these negative comments!! for shame!!lets see you alll with the negative coments come up with something like this!! these guys were great!! end of story!!

  373. Over a beer the other nite, I asked my Pastor what he thought….he sed “Buy me another beer while I think about it”.

  375. “Finish” shouldn’t be part of the title. Each bottle needs a certain amount of liquid to achieve the particular note pitch for that bottle. It should be maybe, “What to do before the beer gets warm”, or “Don’t get drunk, get funk”.

  378. the Church is where God resides as well in the Tabanacle..Body and blood.So not just a building!!!

  381. Billie Fuckin Jean? You just lost any credibility you might (and that’s a stretch) have had.

  382. Mark–Please stop being so judgmental–did they appear Drunk to you?–Looks like they were having a little fun and “making music”–yes, that is what I call it–is better than all of the “screaming” that goes on sometimes, and calling it music!
    At least they were not being “destructive” as I have witnessed in the past!
    sparksnavy

  383. Also re: my missive earlier–did you count the number of bottles of beer they drank? The total number of bottles they were using as musical instruments–does that mean , to you that is the total number of beers they drank? LOL
    Get a life and be more creative and constructive!

  384. Mark–
    I saw the asterisks being used–but, is so easy to miss as the result of the many comments of “your lack of humor” unquote– Mark–use the LOL (laugh out loud) and that will get people’s attention about your “humor” or the lack thereof!

  386. what’s this Michael Jackson stuff?I know Michael Jackson writes beer books,but they were also doing a Michael Jackson song.

  391. Cool vid but hilarious comments about MARK dissing Jim like he’s some kind of raging alcoholic – That down there is funny. What else can they play!?

  392. And hold your pistol in the other hand..lol
    PS, I’m pro 2nd Amend, and M1 owner Semper Fi

  397. I bet they drank all the beer, and replaced it with water, it would still work..

  398. I recorded in a studio called Media Sound back in the 80’s in NYC that was an old church. The sound was amazing in there. The likes of Aerosmith were there as well as Gladys Knight and many others recorded there.

  399. i am very impressed!!!!! of course i liked michael jackson and billie jean

  402. im confused….if all the bottles are the same, why wouldn’t each guy just have one bottle? Why move from one to the other if there not different?ugh

  404. Feet are tapping and a smile on my face!! Great imagination and great job on the performance!!! hope U guys Go Viral!

  411. O.K. GIRLFRIENDS — all of us that have no talent ??? maybe??we could do this??Of course we would have to ”find” those beer bottles first!ha

  412. Did all of Noah’s sons bring their girl friends along? Bet when they broke out the wine, there was a fun time to be had on the old ark! Or did all of humanity originate, once again, with Mr. and Mrs. Noah? Thus the need for lots of wine! Too much will defeat the purpose, however. But maybe I am thinking too much about things we shouldn’t think about! I’m sure it was all done in the missionary position, however.

  413. Love these guys!! Do they have a CD out yet? And when are they going on one of the late nite shows? They ROCK and Michael Jackson would be so proud to hear his music on beer bottles!!

  415. Gentlemen……why assume only 1 person drank all the beer? AND HEY!!! DID YOU NOT HEAR ALL THE FABULOUS MUSIC? FABULOUS.

  420. It’s all really cool stuff and I like the sounds. These guys are remarkable and I know because I’m 73 yo.

  429. These talented guys must have trained hard to produce such entertaining music! Good on you!! Keep up your Talents!!

  430. Would it make you feel much better, Marky, if they titled it ‘Recycling Empty Beer Bottles’, and posted it as GREEN.

  431. I cannot believe how these talented men making music with beer bottles
    turned into discussions on drinking and religion! Personally, I enjoyed
    the music… and I don’t give a rat’s bottom if the bottles had beer still
    in them or if they contained water, or whether they were in a church or
    not! Everything in life does not have to be controversial, just enjoy it!

  432. I cannot believe how these talented men making music with beer bottles turned into discussions on drinking and religion! Personally, I enjoyed
    the music… and I don’t give a rat’s ass if the bottles had beer still
    in them or if they contained water, or whether they were in a church or
    not! Everything in life doesn’t have to be controversial, just enjoy it!

  434. no wonder your name is dick… It is how much fluid is in each bottle makes different tones.

  436. The empty bottles would all have the same tone…..This is nothing but an act to the background music.

  437. When will you all realise, there is no actual thing as God or heaven – it’s all in the mind.
    Bet you don’t print this one!

  439. So, let’s knock down Notre Dame, Canterbury Cathedral and The Vatican if they don’t matter.

    You and your friends can go meet in a field in the middle of winter in the rain and snow. Good luck.

  441. You used to be able to drink beer and drive in Texas. They measured distances by the six pack.

  449. Are you people kidding that feel that there’s anything negative about this? Very talented and loved the tune.

  450. They are so clever, how did they discover they could get a tune like that out of beer bottles. Would have taken lots of practice.

  451. Sheesh. why the hell and when did ‘church’ get into this pretty good post. talk about petty. i’ll say it again. get rid of religion and false god’s and our world would be a wonderful place to live in. b-bye….forever…LOL

  456. WOW!!!!! Occasinally I can play a Hyden Horn concerto on a length of plastic conduit and I’m allways in strife for making train whistle sounds with bottles in restraunts but these guys are clever. try it yourself instead of whinging

  460. Richard
    How do you manage to confine God to a place or a building? Forgive me but God can not be contained. Also to which denomination’s church are you going to confine Him?

  462. They are extremely tallented. I do not believe they could have written or performed such a terrific tune if they had been drunk!

  467. Foarte frumos,felicitări trupei.Bine gândit in catedrala,in spatele vostru este si o orgă.Încă odată felicitări,cred ca Gheorghe Zamfir ar fi invidios pe voi.Tot așa băieți sa o tineți .

  470. A church is just a building. Never heard about Jesus teaching in a church. He seemed to always be out and about. Last time I went to a service (as a guest) they showed on a screen where the ATM was in the church

  472. I don’t want to even imagine a world where “finished all the beer” is even a possibility.

  474. Don’t care what any of the numbskulls amongst you think, but that application of bottles to make innocent music is simply ingenious. Those who “dis” it are obviously devoid of any talent and insanely jealous!!

  475. First drink the beer. Then play the bottles! What a wonderful way to save the environment by recycling!!!

  476. OMG…I LOVE this! I want to make a band playing all the different beers we love to drink! Aren’t they clever in tuning their bottles!! Beautiful music to boot.

  485. A tabernacle is a church or a housing or a receptacle for a host. Not a tabanacle

  486. Who said they drank any beer?
    These are only bottles most likely filled with water to a prescribed amount for each tone or note

  489. It’s kinda hard to do the classic Jackson crotch grab when your arms are full of beer bottles. Despite that: good job, guys!

  490. I can’t believe the prissiness of some of the previous comments. This is a clever, well rehearsed and entertaining performance using empty bottles – no more, no less.

  492. If drinking beer and then utilizing the containers showing their taste in the chosen music to recreate……… is fantastic. Enjoying the beer itself and then switch to an excellent choice of music for the encore I find well worth getting involved. My taste for the beer is one of life’s greatest pleasures. I only wish that I had the musical expertise that these young gentlemen have. To hell with all the negative responsive notes posted hear. They would not know a good relaxing thing if it hit them in the face. ….. Carry on Michael and enjoy yourself. Old Bill said that.

  494. I think you need to look at this in the musical sound that they make with the bottles, it could be empty pop bottles for all it matters.

  495. I can’t believe the direction this discussion has taken! What a bunch of humourless nitwits there are out there-this was great entertaining piece of music by some talented guys…more please!

  496. Cheesus….the boys wr just havin’ fun….stop analysing beyond the intent!!! IT WAS FUN!!!

  498. Yo Mark, why would you post your picture and make comments like THAT? Those guys tore it up, really talented,on a classic song. Nerd.

  508. Just fill them with home brewed beer and slap your own label on it..And I love the stupidity about religion in this post..You people are a hoot..Religious freaks are dragging this world down..

  510. I WAS DOWN THIS MORNING .VERY UPLIFTING! NOW I NEED A BEER GREAT FUN GREAT DAY GUYS! GOOD SONG TO! PRETTY COOL!

  512. Mark, I don’t know you but reading the comments about your BLATANTLY OBVIOUS joke was painful and makes me want to buy you a beer bud. For the people jumping all over him…OMG!!!! I should never read these comment sections, I fear for the future of mankind.

  517. Did no-one think that they may have mimed a synthesizer recording. Just check which bottles they blow and remember the pitch of the note.

  526. It WOULD be cool if it wasnt faked. First of all, to get harmonic sounds out of the bottles each would have to a certain amount of liquid at different levels to make different “notes” possible. The guy in front is playing CHORDS on his and they are all empty. And if youve ever tried to make a bottle hum you know you have to be precisely located on the rim. These guys are hitting clear in tune notes barely hitting the rims. Sorry..the internet lately is CHOCK full of these types of “skits”…..scams……videos of people supposedly shocking people with some bizarre stunt only to end up showing them they faked it….Getting a laugh. Most people would slap someone that pulled a stunt like that on them..meanwhile filming them from 5 or 6 different angles…close ups….etc. Like the victims wouldnt see all these people taping their actions. ?? Commercials used to make people look stupid….these kinds of things show that people really can be. The sounds are synthesized and dubbed over the video.

  527. furthermore…..getting a precise IN TUNE note out of a bottle like that….it would have to be sitting level.

  529. Very creative recycling and ,more importantly,repurposing. Excellent entertainment indeed!

  530. Wow. I’d like to see these guys on America’s Got Talent! I’d vote for them

    .They are really great!!

  534. A very spirited performance! Very talented playing, engaging performance, and creative instrument making. I love that – good stuff!! Love to see another video.

  535. Probably banned in Saudi Arabia where even empty (perhaps especially) beer bottles would lead to jail for insulting islam …. sigh!

  538. I don’t think that it was any coincidence that there was a pipe organ in the background. I believe that these guys are very good at lip synching.

  539. Me thinks this is really good! Try it yourself and you’ll see it isn’t that easy.

  542. I wonder if the two “lead players” are flutists? I play flute and know how difficult it is to be spot on pitch, be it a panpipe or a bottle. I was watching the corners and apertures of their mouths and it seems quite convincing. However, if those bottles were tuned with remaining amounts of beer or liquid, those pitches would not have sounded like that while the bottles were being moved so much. Perhaps the bottles were tuned using sand or wax (as is done with panpipes), or maybe even cut to various lengths which would not be visible in the boxes they were in.
    Hmmm……From one piper to another, (whoever they are) Fabulous!
    I too hope it is true.

  543. Brilliant – Superb harmonies – that took a lot of dedication and hard work.
    I Loved It – Keep playing guys:-))) I just can’t believe some of the remarks on here or the mentality of the people who made them!!!

  544. Note to self (and anybody who gets this far). Don’t waste time reading comments. Just enjoy the clip

  547. This was a fun vid…can’t we all just leave it at that and enjoy some talented guys having fun!

  551. Sorry Mark, I read your comment at least 10 times and still don’t get it; all I could think about after watching the video was how fantastic that performance was and how much work they put in to it.

  554. Why??? Emma they drink wine in church oh I know it is to be thought of as the blood of Christ it is still wine ……my church does not make you a sinner if you enjoy a beverage only if you abuse your body is it a sin….

  557. Pretty cool. Wish I had thought of this in my beer drinking days. I might be like Anna Kendrick.

  558. I am not here to make any judgment. Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion and therefore must be respected. The video on the other hand is innovative (using empty bottles not necessarily beer bottles) and entertaining. Thank you for sharing and have a fantastic holiday! Let there be PEACE on earth and let it start amongst us here…Cheers!!

  559. I bet they are all Uni Students Will make their parents proud that their money was not wasted

  562. Have to say one of the most amusing and talented group of musicians
    I have listened too .I write poetry and song lyrics. The pitch and beat
    were perfect ,amazing what a group of good friends and some glass bottles
    can sound like just having fun, can’t wait for the next performance .Have to say well done, I applaud your creativity and talent

  564. LMAO@ all the people who get so much mileage out of misunderstanding oone (very good) joke. BTW, if yu don’t wnt to be there when the beer is all gone, get a new hobby – I brew my own and NEVER run out.

  565. Too bad the church wouldn’t let them bring in the pipe organ in the background for the finish!

  567. By golly we have to work on this at hunting camp Lord knows we have enough empties lying around and Bubba and Billy Bob have lottsa talent.

  574. Do you guys really believe that sound is coming from the bottles you see here? LOL

  578. Such talent and ingenuity! Thoroughly enjoyed this. Michael Jackson would have loved this.

  580. That was GREAT and no one said they were the ones to drink all that beer. They could have gotten them out of a re-cycle bin.
