Bluecoats play show music at the Rockford, IL show on 7/15/12 Thanks to Alex Hinds for helping with Audio! Watch with good speakers/headphones, and watch in HD Canon 5DmkII 24-105L Tascam DR-07mkII
Maybe so. But if you go back to 2010 they copied a whole lotta notes/elements from that show which is why I actually prefer that year to 2012. But hey, to each their own.
This editing is reaaaally cool. It feels really gonzo and super street (or I guess 'in the lot' since its drumline). This is kickass man, very creative. Well done
I just learned the 2nd movement mostly from this video - THANK YOU! Btw for those looking at the snare transcription of the 2nd movement on snarescience... it's like 80% correct. Check the lot videos for the right stickings because the transcription is reeeally dummed-down, haha.
We played hertas, paradiddlediddles, rolls, cha-chudas, cheese cha-chudas, inverts, flam taps, fast flam taps, singles! And it's always been my dream to be part of the Bluecoats. Unfortunately, I've never made it past the first round or got a call back yet. One more year to try though!
Those are just regular IP snare sticks (Probably Casellas) but they have these little Innovative Percussion mutes on the butt ends. I've seen them available on Musician's Friend before. It's just a little black rubbery kind of thing that's meant to put on snare sticks to make them into practice sticks. They just used them for a different timbre and put them on the butt ends so they could flip it back and forth between the muted sound and regular tip. Cool stuff.
my school has 3 and they al have broken in completely different ways ie the back snaps the screw that holds the mount breaks the hinge nut gets rubbed down untill your harness isnt solid
I've played on a lot of lines. Everybody wants the fast rolls and the cheese inverts, but I'm here to tell you. :24 to :26 is the most impressive part of this video. Simple beats played cleanly beats all.
Scoops, they take sound and project it forward and up to the box. Otherwise a lot of the snare sound is going to the ground, which is kind of like a horn angle facing straight down.
I mo need ta go change my shotes nah! Whoever wrote these cadences: Genius. The percussionists performing: Virtuossos. If I've heard better I don't remember it! Well done Gents and (Ladies if you were there but I missed ya or you wrote the music).
It's called 'dutting'; It's basically count out the rests, but saying numbers takes too much time for high tempo parts, so they 'dut'. it's only used in actual drum corp and DCI bands, you'd never see it on a drum set. But thanks for asking.
If you think these guys aren't playing the fuck out these drums... you're wrong. So wrong it's hilarious. They easily were one of the best lines (if not THE best) in DCI this year, hands-down. Show some freaking respect.
