Iconic Bass Trombones in DCI 

Yeah hes super on top of the bass trombone game for dci

Please explain (I have only every touched drum sticks)

​@@I.AM.ON.MY.WAY. A lot of arrangers of corps since trombones have been introduced have been using them almost like glorified slide whistles for features and solos, or they'll have them do a little quartet or other gimmick like having 1 alto 1 tenor 1 bass 1 contrabass even though that really just isn't how trombones are meant to be used. Doug's writing always uses them for a timbre or for a different texture in a feature or background, the bass trombone basically doubles the bass line with the tubas in most of his uses to give it more edge, or its used with a full trombone section/ensemble to act as a real bass voice on its own. Essentially, Bluecoats always have a use for the bass trombone that fits in the arrangement instead of a gimmicky little moment that they spent $3000-4000 on.

I disagree.

@@40wolfmarim95 I mean Doug Thrower is super good with it, where would you say he isnt good?

I agree, theyre amazing 😍

Its so perfect

Youd be correct

academy's shows always go crazy

Nothing more crispy than Pedal F on bassbone

@@basstrombonerr Double pedal Bb isn’t it, sounds like a chain breaking loose

@@TheRandomWolfyes! The bass bone on his right killed that double pedal b flat 😭

@@ledavey it was so unexpected I had to stand up and walk around 💀

I was like DAMN!

Doing you a favor! 🤝

Will is crazy good

I too was there, I was so bummed out not getting to see phantom march that night (However the iconic phantom leg pose that the tubas did at the end was memorable)

HI GARRETT!!

Yeah!

He was a tech for our tubas this year in our high school marching band

I might be an idiot but isnt Beast just tenor trombones playing low

@@basstrombonerrI’m pretty sure there’s a couple bass bones of the field

@@husky12gaming Could be, might look into that for part 2 🫢🫢🫢

OMG HI RYAN!

Your moment in the beginning of that show set the pace for the rest of the show, and it delivered the same and more. Thank you for being such an important part of an amazing show

At this time, the good yamaha (which is what bluecoats are sponsored by) double trigger bass hadnt come out yet, so they used single triggers up until their 2019 show which is when the double trigger came out

@@basstrombonerrah cool thx

Its the F below that I think or the D below that, hard to tell

​@@basstrombonerr it's a Bb

Shut your dog ass up, you came to a DCI trombone video just to say it isnt dci. My HSMB doesnt march trombones, so I guess that makes us a drum corps then huh?

alright grandpa its time to take your meds
