New Zealand Girl Reacts to THE BLUE COATS 2019 PERFORMANCE!! 

AAAGHH this is the middle of the season. and the ending is different than the one they have at the Finals Championship and it sounds so weird hearing it mid-season at the end! But such an amazing show and my favorite of 2019!!

its called a scream whenever a trumpet player plays extremely high.

I was in the audience for this performance. It was insane

When her clapping at 8:11 was in unison with the music 💀

So this performance was actually the second to last regional performance of the season (two weeks before the final competition of the season). Bluecoats actually changed the ending before finals to Hey Jude and you can find it here!: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0x5rSsV45qY.html

"those things must be heavy" Yes, yes they are. 😂

BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Six words baby ✌🏻💙. Ouu and in San Antonio Texas? I actually went to that show and saw all the corps live. It was great especially this show 🤩. Sad to see that the Alamo Dome (the place where this performance was at) end there contract with DCI 😔...but at least its coming even closer to where i live 🤷🏻‍♂️

Sent this to my friends who performed in this brass line!

Bluecoats got 2nd in 2019! They were placing 1st though most of the year, but they lost to the Blue Devils (I believe you reacted to their show Ghost Light already). The two shows were really close but Devils pulled ahead by about a tenth of a point in finals. edit: You haven't reacted to Ghost Light yet, but that'd be a great show from 2019 to watch as well!

Hi, Watching your reaction videos to DCI performances makes my day!! As a veteran of marching music, I love seeing you effected by the beauty and intensity of this art form. To get the scoop of what goes in to these performances! The work that goes on is mind blowing!!

I wasnt a beatles fan until i heard this entire show in person. i can say that after you know exactly every small reference in the show it makes it so much better and composed.

I was a staff member for this show! I absolutely LOVED seeing your reaction! I am honestly crying because I love this show so much and I'm so glad I was able to see every performance of 2019 to see the progress from beginning to end. Ryan IS correct in saying that every uniform (other than the battery, which is the on-field drummers) is different. There were a few occasional exceptions to this throughout the season: torn pants, misplaced/stained items, things like that. We were in Akron, Ohio when I had to last minute fit someone for pants before they performed. This happened on occasion while on tour. The trumpet "squeak" or hang over that you hear is typically called screaming. If I remember correctly, this was the last time that this particular ending was played and was changed to feature "Hey Jude" a few days later. Glad you enjoyed the show! It is definitely one to remember!

2016 Carolina Crown This was an overall amazing show. The brass and color guard were amazing and the percussion improved a lot. I recommended you watch the finals run. I will attach it to the comment. www.dailymotion.com/video/x4rzv59

I've been a drum corps fan for 40 years. There have been cleaner shows. There have been more difficult shows. But there's never been a show that I loved more. Love you Bluecoats.

I recommend you watch INFERNO by Carolina crown!!!!!!!

6:40 “bruh this shit buzzes me out” pleaseeee keep the DCI content coming! ‼️💯😉

I get so excited when I get the notification of you reacting to drum corps

I was able to partake in 2021s production, which is the second part to this show. It was named Lucy. You should react to that!

You should've watch the finals. They had a better closer. BUT, I loved the reaction video!!!

They had a new ending for Finals which was a lot better

I had the privilege to see this show (as well as quite a few over the past few years) in person. It's one of the most incredible experiences ever. And the trumpets wailing on a high note is a screamer :)

Loved marching this show! Thanks for reacting! :-)

This show was a huge fan favorite. So sad we don’t get to see these guys put on a show this year.

The squeal at the end of the note that guy was playing (when you asked about it) was just that player "holding over", in this case by design. He extended his note after the rest of the band stopped so that it showcased his range. Once in awhile you may hear a player pinch off a note at the end of his high note and that is known as a "Kiss Off", but I'm pretty sure that's not what you are asking about. Hope some of this helped.

Seeing this live at the semis was AMAZING!!! But they were robbed of 1st...

I was there to see that performance live! It was absolutely amazing!

My friend from high school marched/performed in this show!

The kid playing the the drum kit was a baritone player also. He marched and drumed. Max is amazing. I happen to know a lot about the corps.

She should see some high school marching bands like: Hebron high school ,Vandergrift ,Claudia Taylor Johnson high school(those are some)

I'm so glad you love these videos!! :)

Omg I was waiting for this !!!

If you want to see another show with more Rolling Props, Santa Clara Vanguard 2017: "Ouroboros" is another good choice.

i was in that crowd!! i was able to see all the corps live, was a great experience to live

The Bluecoats were in first all of the 2019 season until the Semi Finals and Finals at the DCI Championship where they got 2nd against the Blue Devils who won 1st. I submitted a recommendation on your website for that Blue Devils show!

dang, i only wish you got to see one of their cleaner performances, even though this one is pretty awesome too

I loved this ending so much 😭😭 it made me so happy and it was so calm and different. love my bloo regardless

I've marched in that stadium four timea for state. It is a tremendous feeling to hear the crowd cheering while on the field. I miss high school marching so much :(

I was there! Such an awesome show

I *love* seeing your reactions to these very awesome performances! What those kids do out there on the field is second to none! If you would like to be entertained by a funny (if not quite as technically proficient as some of the more modern performances) show, look for Velvet Knights '92. There's a reason the crowd reaction is so loud at the end of that show....

First!!! I really enjoy watching your DCI reaction videos:):):):):):):):) Here are some of my personal favorites that you should check out when you get the time: BlueDevils 2019(1st place)- "Ghostlight" Santa Clara Vanguard 2019- "Vox Eversio( -the trumpet solo dude hit E 15va( 2 octaves above staff)- triple G) BlueCoats 2018- "Session 44" BlueDevils 2018- "Dreams and Nighthawks" Carolina Crown 2017- "It Is" Carolina Crown 2016- "Relentless"(full final run on dailymotion) BlueDevils 2016- "As Dreams are made on" BlueCoats 2016(1st place)- "Downside Up" The Academy 2016- "Drum Corpse Bride" BlueCoats 2015- "Kinetic Noise" Carolina Crown 2015- "Inferno" BlueDevils 2015(1st place)- "Ink BlueDevils 2014(1st place)(DCI Record highest score OAT)- "Felliniesque" Carolina Crown 2013(1st place)- "E=MC^2" BlueDevils 2012(1st place)- "Cabaret Voltaire" The Cadets 2011(1st place)- "Between Angels and Demons" BlueDevils 2010(1st place)- "Through A Glass Darkly

U rlly hittin all my favorites. U da best :)

A horn snap is where all of the instruments come up so quick and so unison that it makes a pop or snap noise. The ballad of the 2019 Santa Clara vanguard show is a great representation of this. I'm not sure what the late release trumpet is, I'm guessing just a little showmanship.

This is it bois More Bluecoats!!! Six Words!✌️

This is in my hometown. The Alamodome (the stadium where this took place) was opened in 1993, and I was a member of the stadium camera crew for the first three years before I moved to Las Vegas. I'm back living in the area again, but I was actually out of state when this show took place. Wish I could have been there to see it live.

I was there in person to watch this show in person and man it was amazing

This was such a good performance! Still hoping that you will do Ghost Light from 2019 Blue Devils soon! I got super excited thinking you were doing Ghost Light, but then I read the whole title! Thanks for another great video!

To answer your question about the color scheme, there's actually a very simple reason as to why it is so appealing. Blue and Orange are on the opposite sides of the color wheel, and colors on the opposite of the color wheel ALWAYS look good together. this is why colors like red and green, or purple and gold look good together, they are on the opposite sides of the color wheel.

Yassss finally I love this show💖

Hi Courtney so this was the show from earlier in the season they changed up their closer and the high note that you from the trumpet is known as a screamer note. We call them screamer notes because when you play so high it starts to sound like someone actually screaming. The horn snap on the other hand is where the brass just bring their horns to the playing position very quickly and you have to snap to that position pretty quick *hints the name horn snap*

The ending is so different from the final version. Isn’t San Antonio late July?

I saw these guys in person. The corps of the future!

I was at that exact performance! 4th row from the front on the 50 (middle)

To answer some of your questions about the design of the show, I’m pretty sure the main artistic direction and design was Jon Vanderkolff and Dean Westman. I know for sure all of the brass arrangement was Doug Thrower and percussion was Tom Rarick. Colorguard was Jim Moore, with some help from Greg Lagola iirc. But there’s a full stall of literally dozens of people that all are needed to pull something like this off. And someone please correct me if any of that is wrong.

Carolina Crown 2013!!!

Bluecoats 2017!!!!! Didn't place as high, but it's such an emotional and powerful show!!!

The reason they chose bright blue and orange for the color scheme is to emphasize the transition from black and white to color the Beatles went through.

"Those things (tubas) must be so heavy.." Well.... Yes, in fact they are!

The color scheme of blue performers and an orange cologuard has been a thing since the 70's, but its a lot more vibrant this year

❤️, especially @5:18 - @5:58 and the ending fanfare...🥰 Thank-you for highlighting, Courtney!! (^_^)

Your claps at 8:12 where timed perfectly with the beat lmao

horn snap is the physical movement of putting up ur horn. make the instrument squeal at the end would be a crescendo

Carolina Crown 2013! Def worth checking out. The one Carolina Crown you reacted was recorded to showcase the drums, so it is not the best example. 2013 was breathtaking! I Love Bluecoats. But Crown is worth it too :)

The people that spin the flags and rifle are called color guard.

I went to the 2019 DCI Finals in Indianapolis being a Bluecoats fan... During the results for 2nd place, the announcer goes "Blue..... (cause it was either Bluecoats or Blue Devils, everyone wanted Bluecoats to get 1st, you should have heard the crowd during their performance) Coats" and me, my dad, and everyone went soooo crazy cause number 1: Blue Devils just got 1st, 2:the announcer was making everyone anxious and 3: Bluecoats just got 2nd, when EVERYONE agreed they should have gotten first!!! Also, at the end of the preformance, it isn't the end, you forgot to react to the part when they played "Hey Jude" my all time favorite part!

Awe this doesn’t have the actual ending, it’s even better!!!

The choreography designer for the bluecoats is also the choreography designer for my band. He does great work

Carolina Crown 2013 e=mc2 PERFECT BRASS SCORE

This was my first time seeing this particular show too and I got Kinetic Noise vibes from it! Can someone in her fancy request box request Kinetic Noise or E=MC2?? I wanna see those so bad!

“Let’s go colorguards!” my soul jumped out of excitement!

Noooo, you needed to react to their finals performance, the soloists don’t mess up as much and the ending is much better

haha you’re talking about the SCV 2018 horn snap :) and the Bluecoats placed 2nd in 2019

They should have won in 2019. Hands down best show.

You really need to see a live performance.

her: what are those circle things?? me: THE MINTS!!

You got to watch the blue devils 2014, winning show, by far. And they had the highest score ever. If you watch it turn ur volume up

boston crusaders 2017, 2018 are super crowd friendly. You might enjoy those!

I laughed out loud when she said "it sounds like a soundtrack".

*Horn Snap* : Quickly snapping the instrument to the playing position (Santa Clara 2018 was the one you really loved) *Screaming* : Trumpet playing very high notes and very loud, usually releasing the note slightly after everyone else so you hear the note on its own

Awww I was hoping this was after the ending change

That high pitch note is called a "scream"

I've never seen the earlier performance ah wish she seen the Finals performance omg👌

I highly recommend watching Highland Park High School’s show from 2019. They placed first in Texas’ annual marching competition and it’s an amazing show.

I suggest you watch the finals version of this show. The ending completely changed so they play Come Together

You should go old school and watch 1991 Star of Indiana's show 'Roman Images'. One of the best horn lines ever and the closing drill is fantastic!

I’m so glad someone who doesn’t know much about dci or music in general is getting into it. but it’s so funny listening to her commentary just because she doesn’t know the terms. Good job to her for expanding her horizons though

Two more suggestions of Corp shows to watch are The Cavaliers show “The Machine” from 2007 and The Cadets 2011 show “Angels and Demons”!!!

*This is now a DCI Reaction Channel* 😂

YES

FINALLY!!!!

Nooooo! This is midseason!😭 they should’ve put the link the the finals version. The ending is so much better!!!

Courtney's catching on to visual GE elements of color and movement. Her education in the activity is progressing nicely lol

The designer for this show is Michael Raiford

7:11 when a trumpet player really high like that, it’s called a scream

That was so cool. I never seen anything like that before. Where do drum corps perform? How can I see it live in person?

ahhh bluecoats is one word but anyways great video!

Idk if you realize this, but hearing a drum corp up close could possibly be the loudest thing you have ever heard lol

It’s crazy there’s a better ending to that show later on in the season

I would love it if you would react to the 2016 Bluecoats! They won the world finals that year and their show is amazing I think you’d enjoy it!

Time to watch the blue devils 2019 show!

LETS GOOOOOOOO
