Phantom Regiment Drumline 2010 - Arlington, VA (2)

[DrummingWin]

I love Rennick's tuning and book so so much. I also like the convo the two guys have at the beginning of this...

[mrpainless45]

@SNAREDOOD6969 yeah no one will ever replicate the sound rennick gets...loud doesn't necessarily mean good, these guys have really good dynamic control

[scorch0012]

They won best percussion. Shut up.

[omartor8]

Blue Coats walking lie beast in the back ground

[dchooper12]

damn! swagger of a virgin's dick

[SomeGuyDrumming]

1:46 ish out of step :( come on Phantom

[TheDrummingAsian]

I am a BD fan, but I gotta say, this battery is KILLING. Also, it also shows that Dynasty drums don't sound bad at all.

[BabySteve47]

holy!  Thats super clean for early season, and just clean over all

[iggymochuk]

I liked it better when they were playing on a wood plank...

[Cameroon993]

the roll at 1:12 = so tasteful

[blake111297]

hey are they using the double snares. PLEASE REPLY

[MybearDrums]

BLOOOO!



[schecter96]

@MybearDrums wrong corp............

[masterdrummer19]

@schecter96 he was talking about Coats marching by like 2 min. in

[ProChopsVideo]

To me, the extraordinary aspect of martial arts lies in its simplicity. The easy way is also the right way, and martial arts is nothing at all special; the closer to the true way of martial arts, the less wastage of expression there is. -Bruce Lee

[slitherzpin]

So bottom line, if your dissing Phantom Regiment, you're a fagget. Period

[joschneider1]

I disagree that the section parts aren't difficult. I mean, playing 3 5lets over a measure of 4/4 is just a little straining. Or where there is a 4let over 3 8th notes in the drum break. If you have your awareness of time so spot on that you can just sight read that stuff, then I could be proved wrong... not trying to start an argument or anything, but there is something to be said for the amount of downbeat awareness coming from each of these dudes :)

[mrpainless45]

what no one seems to get about paul rennick's writing, is that while the section's part's aren't impossibly hard, they ARE incredibly difficult to bring together in the ensemble...if you notice, he never incorporates just one section into anything, he utilizes the whole ensemble.

[jrdfreckles11]

Nice. :]

[ELECTROrestrrial2013]

i cant believe paul is working with SCV now :(

[TheDragonmaster18]

damn paul is beating the hell out of those sticks. lol

[doublebassheeltoe]

Hey. I see flams, just saying.

[DEMAcracy]

@2:05

BD haha

[tommy2122108]

@DEMAcracy It's actually the Bluecoats. lol

[DEMAcracy]

@tommy2122108

hahaha oh yeah lol. my bad

[johnnyjtuber]

It would be more expressive ; tonality and musicly; if there were bigger differences in dynamics

[drumboy1313]

Anyone else bothered by center snares pinkies? :/

Otherwise, pretty damn amazing. Those quads sound fucking sexy.

[CWsnare]

I wonder how coats' drumline felt when they walked by during that piss clean snare break.

[wearefamily12]

@CWsnare probly good know Drew Guy has their backs

[ericdrumz86]

I LOVE watching the Blue Coats having to pass by behind the Regiment line. Lord knows, we've all had to do that at some point in corps. LOL

[Sarge94187]

I see the Bluecoats movin in

[MrGhfhdhshah]

SO CLEAN!!!!!!!!!!!

[avenged7xguitar]

Yes.



[TheDiddleFinger]

btw this doesn't take any chops to play.

[runtangadom]

@TheDiddleFinger

and who do you march with?

[TheDiddleFinger]

popcorn is ready.

[spursfan4life]

i know bluecoats heard that snare break and shivered lol

[zharston]

I don't normally bash videos on YouTube, but the sticks-in at 1:12 was probably the girliest sticks-in I've ever seen. The other 99% of the video is awesome, but man... talk about a buzzkill.

[runtangadom]

@zharston

doing a manly big dick sticks in at that part of the show wouldn't fit, because the front ensemble has a very light and quiet-ish run right there.

i think it fits just fine the way it is

[pickleboy01]

Bluecoats and Phantom Regiment in the same place. My dream has come true.

[White0ak]

Such a boring repetitive book...

[YellowTenor]

this is only JUNE?

[CavaliersForTheWin]

Wooooo! I'll take balls-clean Phantom over a BD chopfest anyday!

[chrisman180]

OH MYGOD i just had a drumgasm

[GoConnecticut]

@chrisman180

so did I

[jman3ification]

soo relaxed..at anytime they could go to sleep mid book

[KTMlover525]

haha that is epic i do the stick flash that the snares do at 0:58

[sonofrageandlove13]

Won drums this year. Totally earned it! Screw you BD go PHANTOM! =D

[BSBINC1]

do see bda 2009 drum coats

[Samwerd2]

very musical book. clean too....

[neilyvanneily]

@the1oreo Phantom has the best dynamic shaping of any line out there. If you ask me, playing a perfectly clean decrescendo roll is harder for a line than playing a clean flam five with simple dynamics.

[Promark25]

two of the best lines in one shot. dont get that everyday

[eXhAwST]

Was that "I dated my sisters" @ 0:24 o_o

[themaliced]

nice shot of bc in the background at 2:05

[zs09zs09zs09]

Phantom may have won drums this year but Bluecoats performed a lot better in my opinion.

[Jdogdrums7]

Cleaner than Clorox

[rhssnare]

does anyone think phantom will be easier this year to make since they lost Rennick?

[zzzzzushi]

phantom got best drumline this year in the finals. just sayin.

[john3047X]

its like jazz/funk in drumline format. their hands look like butter. love it.

[jamieman28]

mr second snare from left needs to keep his pinky on his stick. :) they totally deserved high perc this year

[griffinthe]

this is ridiculously clean for this early..holy crap.

[randomtechdude]

nick taylor, i love u

[AlexJ4d]

If I could march Phantom, I would be SOOOOOO happy.

[doublebassheeltoe]

This reminds me of a very mature 2003 Phantom Regiment line.

[dawichrister]

PR won...thats all that matters...

[JiMnEEzY707]

being a snare drummer myself....um.....how are you clean, when your feet aren't even close to being in time...the last 3 snares on the right phase like crazy...suck!!!!

[dafontenot]

I bet BD shat themselves while walking by!

[jamieman28]

@dafontenot That wasnt BD. that was bluecoats

[TWHSglock1]

they got some weird ass carriers

[cortra51]

The fundemental level across the line is phenominal. Notice every single person has the the exact same techinque and style. Paul Rennick will go down as one of the greatest instructors in history.

[chavez4564]

fat diddles

[pyro9029412]

sexy

[freud113]

SUPER clean; but does anybody play anything more than paradiddle-diddles these days?  Where are the flam drags and fat roles? Just wondering.

[swisscheesedlo]

@freud113 Probably being played by some line that doesn't win drums. lol

[freud113]

@swisscheesedlo Gotcha! ;-/

[the1oreo]

@swisscheesedlo yea cuz devils actually play notes..

[swisscheesedlo]

@the1oreo I say this respectfully, but any tool can play all kinds of notes. Doesn't mean it's musical at all.

[RCRhythm]

@swisscheesedlo There are "tools" who play all kinds of notes, and there are tools who play "musically." Doing one or the other doesn't guarantee greatness. If things were that simple, there would be a quick and easy formula for creating a great drumline. But there isn't. You have to play demanding shit. You have to play it well. You have to stage it right, so that people NOTICE it. And above all, your line has to have the "X" factor, which isn't a real teachable thing, in my observation.

[DrumBum3000]

@swisscheesedlo Paul writes some of the most musical notes in dci!

[fsudrew1992]

@swisscheesedlo or clean

[brueck4]

@swisscheesedlo Here's the deal though, this book was EASY. One of the easiest in World Class, and they didnt win because of their line they won because of their pit, I've talked to the judge personally and he basically said that he was impressed this year most with Blue Devils because they put a rediculous demand on the line. Whether or not they won, you have to respect a line that plays a hard book

[ajd9512]

@brueck4 everyone is always impressed by demand. It's clarity and achieving that demand though that makes you win. It's very tough to give credit to demand when you can't hear it clearly. At this level clarity wins end of story.

[mysteryguy0]

@swisscheesedlo are you then calling out crown with all their notes? Which means they suck too?

[swisscheesedlo]

@mysteryguy0 No. For instance, in 08 Crown's book wasn't as demanding as BD perhaps, but It was cleaner and they got a better score.

[schecter96]

@mysteryguy0 your an idiot. he never called anyone out. ....you did.

[jjmachuca]

@swisscheesedlo Musicality is the arranger's problem, the people in the line's problem is playing clean. They can't control how the music is arranged. Obviously, Phantom solved that problem in 2010.

[drumcorps0junkie]

@swisscheesedlo

WHERE YOU NOT HEARING THE HOT NOTES

AND KILLER VISUALS?

[Trapmaker677]

@drumcorps0junkie visuals don't make anything musical lol

[theflamfounder]

@swisscheesedlo Pretty sick of PR fans using this argument. You people know that a notey book can still be musical, right? It's not like when you make the decision to play a "musical" drum book you're required to reduce your demand down to 99% eighth-note check pattern bull shit. People need to quit throwing around the term "musical" as a defense for having high school level demand.

[swisscheesedlo]

@theflamfounder Then why have Paul Rennick and Tom Aungst individually won more drum titles with their writing than Dave Glyde in the last decade?

[theflamfounder]

@swisscheesedlo Tom Aungst writes very demanding and musical books. His lines have deserved every title they've won. I'd feel a bit more accomplished for winning with a challenging book that took all season to clean rather than a book that was clean the first time we sight-read it.

[SnareCaptain123Moo]

@theflamfounder Did you really just call this a  high school book?

[cosmodrum1]

@theflamfounder Not every passage in a book has to be the most difficult, sweet lick in the world. Sometimes the the music calls for eighth notes. Also, there are things that make books difficult like metric modulation, dynamics, and spacial orientation. you don't have to flam every damn note to make it a good book. You Cadet fanboys are ridiculous. If you get off on paradiddlididdles and a book of two heights, then the Cadets are great.

[theflamfounder]

@cosmodrum1 Yeah, I agree. Metric modulation and spacial orientation can make a book difficult. Too bad 99% of this book is just straight eighth note check.

[ptowndrummr]

@the1oreo notes are nice, when the line can actually articulate them.

[meatwad314]

@the1oreo too bad they didnt win drums though huh?

[BurntToast355]

@swisscheesedlo Sad but true.

[mimamalol9]

@freud113 I know what you mean.......maybe cause its easier to control??

[MeetTheMattsons]

@freud113 it's about fast and clean, not slow and thick. Today's tempos and marching demand are much more difficult than standing around in an arc flamming away like decades ago. If the goal is to play clean, why even flam at all?

[thsma2009]

@freud113 in all the 1st place high school lines. lol. personally paradiddle-diddles are harder to clean then flam drags.

[CRIPPLESTIX777]

@freud113 Blue Devils yo!

[poopcrapface2000]

@freud113 you need to demonstrate a line can play easy stuff as well as hard.

[NumberNile]

@freud113 Easy books = less ticks

[amsnare13]

@freud113 BLUECOATS man! 2009 and 2010 are sick.

[john3047X]

@freud113 they're easy to clean

[john3047X]

@freud113 they're easy to clean if you got good players. And hey, there is some ramming stuff in there.

[timartin91]

@freud113 Just sayin'... this book is extremely demanding. It's very difficult and is full of notes.

[ctsbrg]

@freud113 Re-watch the vid. These guys are all over the rhythmic spectrum (as in there isn't just paradiddles and fat rolls). Also, rolls is spelled with two L's and no E. These guys are throwing down.

[freud113]

@ctsbrg Thanks for the spelling lesson. You may want to review elementary grammar, as in 'there AREN'T just paradiddles and fat rolls.'

[fifteen95]

@freud113 you should start the video at 2:00 and then rethink your comment

[drksdofthmoon]

@freud113 better clean and easy than hard and dirty.....that didn't come out right.

[TurdFergusonWF]

I got Paul Rennick to sign a pair of my Paul Rennick drumsticks when UNT did a drumline clinic in my town :]

[InnerBeatDrumSchool]

@TurdFergusonWF That doesn't surprise me at all...he worked with our drumline briefly at PASIC (almost 20 years ago...I'm getting old!) and he was very personable...he's a good guy!

[reimain]

Phantom is 1st in drums as of quarterfinals!!!!

[Summit145]

that guy whos legs part at 1:00 is my snare teacher.

[linnmar86]

wow that is really clean

[Frickashade]

1 off the end near the tenors looks like 07 PR center snare Joe House

[spartey01]

Best part was when the coats walked by >.>

[DoubleDDrums]

Dan Cannon. Rep bro, keep up the good work phantom

[AKzosorocker]

PR is second in drums right now =) HELL yea.

[swisscheesedlo]

@AKzosorocker Where are you finding current drum scores?

[CincoSnare76]

@swisscheesedlo They're actually in first. You can find them at

dci.org/scores/rankings/index.­cfm

[rreemmzzrruullee]

@swisscheesedlo go to dci.org and go to scores and go to rankings. theyre actually first

[Frickashade]

@swisscheesedlo drum corps planet . com

[tenordrummercj]

@swisscheesedlo dci.org/scores/rankings/

[bluestarhopeful]

@swisscheesedlo dci.org. On the "scores" tab, then hit rankings, and there's a drop down menu on the next page.

[trptsrule]

@AKzosorocker first in drums in semi's :)

[sh0tim3]

BLuecoats sawga walkin in the back lol

[revresbo101]

Hell yeah! sounding that good this early! i'm so pumped to catch em in the lot! 

[sirtannerthepure]

Yeah 0:45

[av8ter1644]

cant wait to see you guys in atl

[doga63]

@TenorBoy2011 I think Phantom deserves it in my opinion. They are playing the hardest rhythmic beats that i think bluecoats can never match. I am only stating my opinion, two very different styles, but it all comes down to who is clean, and i think phantom is cleaner this year.

[SnareFlare07]

@doga63 Agreed.

[swisscheesedlo]

@TenorBoy2011 Coats are just not the same without Mac, in my opinion.

[spursfan4life]

@TenorBoy2011 as of the last show thats a fallacy.

phantom got a 17.70

bluecoats got a 17.20

[joeporter2323]

phantom's got it.

[MrOppsmybad]

Phantom is so clean!!!!!!!!!!!!

[woothatdrums]

This book is way better than last years book. Phantom book hasn't been the same since 07.

[phobass]

@woothatdrums sounds the exact same every year..

[woothatdrums]

@phobass I think don't think so. I didn't like last years book at all. The 08 book was good.

[codrumcaptain16]

pretty clean

[Cman272]

hey paul rennick from 2007 called and said that you were infringing on the copy right of the battery music to Suggestion. haha seriously this book has a lot of 2007 stuff but i'm not complaining. it's still a great book and has it's own individuality.

[Gazeboism]

It looks like the tenors keep their left index finger inbetween the sticks when they snap in. Didn't notice before

[cpy777]

44 - 48 is the sexiest thing ever written period.... My life is now complete.. I will die happy...

[Gazeboism]

Is that guy's legs supposed to apart from 1:00 to 1:10

[swisscheesedlo]

@Gazeboism probably not, but we won't judge

[milanisnare]

@swisscheesedlo Good call lol

[IronfistmanDV]

@Gazeboism well they were at a hault at 1:00 so he probably forgot to not open his legs or thats what they actually do in the drill so he did it because he's used to it

[CFsnare07]

you can hear me talking from :17- :30 haha

[theprodegy12]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[kietey14]

:56 - :58 triplets up, then down into 16th note singles is such a Phantom thing these days. It's been in every show for like 5 years lol

[ilkecoolaidandclnbts]

@kietey14 yea dude thats straight up paul rennick

[thegreatfantastic]

@kietey14 It's a Paul Rennick thing. He always incorporates the different duple/triple combinations.

[dynastytn]

Yeah. Awesome book.

[ilkecoolaidandclnbts]

jeepers thats clean

[cpy777]

@ilkecoolaidandclnbts lol jeepers.

[stubbyt34]

flippin love this book.

[SnareFlare07]

Ryan, do you comment on every youtube video that pertains to drumlines in drum corps?? lol I swear I've seen you on SO many of these recently uploaded videos commenting away. haha

[kietey14]

@SnareFlare07 he should :D I try to also

[Heineken87]

Soooo tasty. Love it.

[spursfan4life]

coats are feeling the pressure hahaha i can see it as they walk by.

[erob2011]

@spursfan4life amen brotha
