Bluecoats 2013 On-Field Battery Cam - Finals Runthrough 

Ruel and Onye are the most iconic anime duo this world has ever seen

Nothing like a bowl of cereal and Bluecoats in the morning

This is one of the most brilliantly conceived and designed shows the drum corps activity has ever seen. In Bluecoats' To Look for America, we see a traditional drum corps in parade formation playing to the stands in the 1950's, and then there's a coming of age. People in the stands switch places with the corps-- they become the performers-- the music becomes about them. Instead of the military industrial complex dominating the play space and mandating its content, the people in the stands take over. A little girl gets her balloon popped as she learns lessons of war and loss. A mix of couples redefine the family picnic. By the end, America is reinvented and free from the shackles of a corrupt, dominating culture of militarism.

"you see that whip girl, by my side, little foot nikki nikki d, do it for the girls, white girls, scooby, doobie, doo, scooby snacks" Thats what i got out of that vocal at 4:53 lmao

8:30 those tenors.... OMG!

I SOOO LOVVEEE WATCHING 12:26 OVER AND OVER AGAIN...U CAN SEE THE PASSION AND THE EFFORT THEY PUT INTO IT...IT'S FREAKIN' CRAZY...I LOVE BLUE COATS THEY ARE SO UNDERRATED

9:36 “I don’t need friends they disappoint me”

Who’s still watching this amazing show🥁🥁

There's really something about that front ensemble intro that gives me chills EVERY time. This is absolutely fantastic.

10 years later and this still holds up

Richards head shake at the end did it for me... So much energy and passion.. The performance level is impeccable

1:22 Bass 2- “RHHHHHH” Some guy- “yo stay in control”

Easily the turning point of BC. Great show.

7:30 is the coolest lick in the last decade. Fight me!

You guys are the best! This is fire! 🔥

People sleep on this show. It's really cool to listen and watch. Also I always forget, this show BOOKS. I swear they're playing while sprinting so much. Like at 2:39, opening impact of the show. You can see some of the euphs sprinting in the back of the horn block, and everyone's marching at 180 BPM!

bluecoats are always 🔥🔥🔥

1:24 that whistle lol!

11:47 - Star Spangled Banner in the bass is 100% genius.

Am i the only one who felt queasy with the digital image stabalization going on?

that attention call

such great quality of sound from the drums

Watching this drumline makes me miss performing. Well done Bloo

This is forever gonna be my dream line.

I'm responsible for at least 1,000 of these views, keep coming back to this, excellent rehearsal performance to show anyone interested in marching band or corps.

So much energy. So hype. So awesome.

I really enjoy this show

they should've started the show with the corps chants and all the hype up on the field. It made this video! I was close to tears, Coats thank you for your existence.

Who still watching in 2019

Freakin amazing! Go drumline!!

bass 2's face at the end says it all.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, that's Pumpitude!!! great job drumline!!

Rue’s screams in the beginning is my favorite part idk why it just sounds cool

I want to marching this tenor line sooooo bad!!!

i can't imagine how long it took to get to that level of exellence....

at 4:50 i love how aggressively they turn 😂

lol the guy at the very end is just like "How's it goin," acting like he didn't just perform an eleven minute show.

00:25. I swear I've heard that somewhere. I must've heard it somewhere, but I just can't fig-... my god.

This is one of the grooviest battery books of all time

I felt this.

What was the cadence they were playing at the beginning? I've seen it a few times but I still don't know what it's called.

very very good job woooooo!

bottom bass has AWESOME marching technique

when the front ensemble comes in after the first 4 bars.......always gives me the chills

what i would do to march with them.

This is hilarious at 2x the speed.

Did anyone notice how two of the quad players didn't have the contour hinges?

Who else got this on there recommend page 9 years later

4:55-5:11, chills everytime.

Came here because of the great quarantine of 2020

what happened to the snare visual at 8:50 ish over the cheese inverts? at least i thought they were cheese inverts

Quick question, where was ruel in Tilt? I watched the battery cam for the final runthrough of tilt, but I didn't see him anywhere.

Am I tripping or did the snare on the far right march blue stars 2019, like that makes no sense for so many reasons but they look almost identical

Did that left-center snare march with Florida

@4:54....bullshittin on the field during a show run through...lol...brought back some memories there...

Intense!

still the coldest start to a dci show, rue calling them to attention gets me going

This Tenor line is awesome. Great group of guys..It would been cool to see all four them March Blue devils....

Can anyone tell me the commands hes saying at 1:36?

What did they say at 1:13?

What is the audible at 4:50?

Joe Pfau. If you RU-vid search his name, his quad cam from this run is literally the first result.

Why does someone do the Hunger Games whistle at 1:25.

at 10:13 the guy on the left looks so shinny

At 0:50 I like how he’s telling giving his family statement

He's got his left shoulder taped and it wraps all the way around his chest.

Look how small Onye & Ruel were compared to now

Who is the guy who screams that the blue coats are his family? I saw him in another video and he looks and sounds exactly like my band director......

Whatever happened around 8:30 was trippy

It's weird seeing some of these snares on the BD line this past season.

what are they rapping at 4:52?

Does anyone know the name of the groove at the very beginning of the video?

What is that Red necklace the tenor player is wearing? Doesn't look like any Corps necklace I've ever seen...

What are they yelling in the start?

Second bass was hyped as fuck at the end. lol

SNARE CAM PLEASE!!!!! Been way to long.. :(

At 8:37 the quad player had a phone taped to his carrier....anyone knows what his profile name is?

the guy in the foreground at 2:05 looks exactly like Josh Ruben from college humor but with blond hair

What is the tenor line saying at 4:52 ?

The hand to had at 10:30 though

What is the name of that song at the start @ 2:00? I likes that!!!! This is a Great Marching Band.

what are the drumline playing in the begining?

3:58. Oh yeah basses you know it ! Haha

Transcription for 11:10 ?

10:42 *oh fuck yeah*

What’s the name of the song at 3:14

That Lock tho 2:00

Tenor in the green shirt went from this to a 99.65 (not disrespecting this is one of my all time favorite bc shows)

8:38 why in hell does that sound like blue devils 2019

pause at 12:13

haha 8:35

Anybody peep the bottom bd shorts tho? Wtf lol

1:52 is that a sports bra? On a dude?

I like how at the quad feature it's a racial battle!!! White vs black:) that was probably a joke from the summer:) maybe they did it on purpose:)
