Bluecoats Percussion Judge Tape 2013 - JJ Pipitone 

6:28

Yes the music is just written so well i love the cocky ness of this percussion ensemble they lay it down every year and they know it.

I second that. Especially when it climaxes at 3:36!

Goosebumps every time, look that 3-4 drum fill to set up that last phrase. Also Tom Rarick probably one of the only arrangers aside from Glyde to write both front ensemble and battery.

he sounded like the koolaid man right there

He sounds so dirty.

+smoshman6000 2015 was their closest year to being first place points wise.

BC 2010 was also a great show. Brilliant drill and musical selections imo.

well what if i said.....you're all right? haha. 2014 was awesome. so was 2015. and 2016. and 2010. and 2017, 2018, and 2019! hell yeah bloo six words ;) i marched there in the mid-2000s and we did our thing but i'll try and stay focused on this decade. i feel like tilt is (understandably) credited as the year they took 'the leap.' (o shit, unintentional tilt pun), but this 2013 show/corps was incredible! what a great drum line and pit, you can feel that energy. 4th on finals week. i love how they kept throwing in those traditional rudimental seven stroke roll-type parts, and blending them into more modern stuff. (i play mello so i'm a bit out of my element here; been around some amazing bloo drumlines including 2nd place in 07, but never been IN one.) you can hear the horns pretty well on this tape, and they sound so clean and balanced throughout. seemed like a really hard show physically too, so it kinda leads me to suspect that the 2014 corps wasn't drastically better than 2013, it was just more potent GE wise, more sustainable and effective physically, and also featured an improved guard.

h

Ricooo lol

Dam I should have read that before I post

Yeeeeuhhh

The center snare wasn't there that day.

6:35 *

I think the Bluecoats were just tight. He's very complimentary, but he makes it known when something needs work. Particularly in the battery.

i love that you've heard that. "best contra line in dci"....he wasn't lying. too bad about what happened with that "regardless of the outcome tonight" comment though.

Where in the video?

Sean Murphy 9:45

"YEUH"

Laura Cox This judge was on the field, you can see him run out to the bass drums at 2:17.

DrumCorpsTube I had a feeling he was - you can hear him breathing a couple of times & sometimes he sounds closer to the drumline than anything else.

He was on the field, you can see him in the green shirt running around.

Michael Breuer Yes I believe so

I think it was Frank Cummings

+muhamed pampur y is he missing?

@@iamsoogi haha I think I was talking more about the judge than the basses. He just made a weird sound. Lol

Jeff Prosperie

Yeah from what i hear from all the DCI finals battery members is, Jeff is the best to get because he is spot on all the time.

In my opinion, he is hands down the best judge in the activity. He's always in the right place.

And i will not disagree or agree to your opinion but i like your opinion. :)

Prosperie is great. My favorite might be Allen Kristensen, though. Always liked Glen Fugett, too.

Nobody has ever given less of a fuck about your opinion than I do right now.

uh...it's a judges tape. They'll ALWAYS talk a lot.

That's why there's an on field cam of just the drumline, also on this channel.

it's been nine years but I sincerely hope you're still doing terribly.
