[TheRiftz1]

holy crap that looks my towns marching band uniform

[bigmatus]

@wbrown103 he learned from bill bachman.

[juliothedrummer]

its not instrumental and ensemble its individual and ensemble

[wbrown103]

Not better than bill bachman but he's ok

[TheTwistedKlown]

one of the best ive heard

[doublebassheeltoe]

I used to work with his aunt. Lol.

[theCultureShockband]

@doublebassheeltoe what?? lol

[doublebassheeltoe]

@theCultureShockband Yep.

[theCultureShockband]

@doublebassheeltoe lol cool!

[jergintherlax]

i swear 1:20-1:28 is the most melodically musical thing i've ever heard on tenors

[MrIsaacDB]

Unlike most of the solos he keeps the beat going throughout... instead of a bunch of thrown together rudiments...

[dawaxer]

"yes".

[eraera47]

That one guy at the end!!!!! YES

[slitherzpin]

Your hands flow very well, very good job.

[MusicisMYlife210]

@slitherzpin

he marched for BD, if he didnt flow then something was terribly wrong lol.

[bigmatus]

I hear some licks from 98 's book too

[rockstarduh5]

I'm almost positive those first couple licks were from Bill Bachman

[devinnamaky]

Btw. Bill had his opus finished before we went on tour in 1996.

[devinnamaky]

i don't have enough balls to play the opus. the camera man is scott johnson

[trashbash2001]

i see that a lot of ppl are commenting that he sounds like bill bachman in some parts. But this was filmed in 2001. When did bill write opie's opus?

[Chriscade09]

whats up with the camera guy? lol. friggin awesome run: "mhmm". epic finish: "yes"

[ReconT4L]

the start at 0.13 is sooo awesome !

[UberJumpTactics]

Wow lol opies opus!

[PeanutButterGorilla]

I'm gonna be honest and say that i don't really like it when people try to play drumset beats on quads. Other than that though, i love this.

[badmotherfuhrer]

Lol you can totally hear I Zimbra by Talking Heads at 1:04.

[Chopp3dOuT]

Opies Oppus!

[j1woods1]

This was my tenor tech in 2003 for the Glassmen

[billybear12345]

where's the 2nd half??

[ICJLXI]

I like this guy

[IHaveVistalites]

Yeah. You can hear "Opie's Opus" in the intro.

Nice work!

[Jiffybob47]

sick!! i wish there was a front view though

[allencatband]

Brian Spicer and this tenor video are probabely the best ive seen in a long time

[mingusmonkus]

For all of you folks hollering Bachman. Devin was in the Blue Q before going to BD. So of course there is Bill Bachman influence.

[burrss]

i hear a lot bill bachman

[laservision]

:15 sounds like opie's opus

[tsodano]

thank god there was some groove in someones solo.. yay

[ZiggyZaggy1369]

lmfao thats funny but sadly true

[drummtb333]

fukin independence like crazy

[1OOYears]

I hear alittle of Malt Altmire?

[drummer703]

i hear a little Bill Bachman

[1OOYears]

Both... :]

[shsquadfather09]

he pulled some bill bachman licks out and put them in it nice solo

[drumlinefreak92]

yea theres a lot, particularly from Opies Opus. The part at 46 seconds I believe is from diddy, whoch is something the blue devils play and brian spicer used in his I&E solo in 99

[866596]

haha yeah this does remind me of a cadence,bj

[jspro6]

where's the second half? they could've posted both off of vic firth...

[Japnoyboi3]

Reminds me of Tim Jackson's solo...LOL...^O^

[Japnoyboi3]
