cant give props where props are due...MDFS been clean like this since forever... technology has only given them an avenue to put it on you tube...what the people who dont know about them is that this is TRADITION for them.... people cant believe that an HBCU band can be this clean in all phrases of a complete marching band. So keep hating, it only tells the program that they are getting better. Striving for perfection is the only thing, because there is no room for nothing else...
@Scaremakers So? What's your point? The Blue Devils have chops. So do the MDFS. Why can't the MDFS play Blue Devils' music and put an urban spin on it?
@Scaremakers dude two of their members marched BLUE DEVILS. Alex Blake who played tenor for the BLUE DEVILS goes to this school and is on this drumline.
@Music1592 Lol das real, i dont like how cookman march 12 snares, das too much to me. Ib be gud wit just 10, or proly 8 like yall n dat help keep it clean
some of you are amazing I'm convinced, no matter how much a line steps up it will be never be good enough. To that I say fuck off! These guys a versitle line and have great chops, no its not your standard played out boom chicka beat, and its not "DCI perfection", But it is good and MDFS is the sickest line I have seen from corps to show. In closing I would also like to say that it seems as though a lot of corp people are pretty stuck up and can't give props. Great job MDFS From a true Fan.
@LargeNoncaucasion what do you mean dci perfection?.....From what i just saw on that video...the sound was just as or as better than some dci that I've seen with my on two eyes....everybody assumes that hbcu dance and flip flop around...that maybe be true...MDFS is better than some dci drummers...YEAH I SAID IT....not talking trash because I've been a fan of NSU legion all my life (yes my mother played sax there also) but i give props and respect where its due...shiit i like dci bluedevils too.
nAh...just nuthin really funky bout the cadence bruh...excellent section....but the cadence just needs to be saved for something other than playing at a game...notice that there own people werent bobbing their heads...BUT MY SECTION NEVER HAD THAT PROBLEM!!AND TRUST ME...WHEN WE PLAYED WE MADE THE JUNKIES COME OFF FROM UNDER THE BRIDGE HERE IN ATLANTA...USE THE CONTEXT CLUES ABOUT WHAT SECTION IM REFERRING TO.
Type in 16 groove at the top!I can give you the footage showing us putting it on them
you really think your 16 groove warm up is that good??....it was alright..but that shit is no where near at technical as ditty..and it wasnt really that clean..MB is good..but its no MDFS..and im not biased in anyway..have "your section" play ditty and then we will see which is better..noone in your clip was bobbing heads eather..
Who cares if it's slower than BD's. You know, it is possible things like that are what separate a world class drum corps from a college. The sound quality and stick heights are still there, and besides, playing drum music slower than normal is harder in some ways.
If you guys knew the original ditty was a 60 SECOND on field warmup, you would know that this 50 second version isn't too slow...but yea, everyone's been spoiled in this world where speed = chops. you find me another SHOWSTYLE line that EVERY SECTION can play ditty (save the one cymbal player)
@thedruminstructor if they played it at the original tempo then it would be copywriting. they had to change something to kind of call it their own. and besides HBCU lines like to groove. you cant hear a groove if you're playing it fast. its actually better to play things slower. espcailly if you are playing for an audience full of non musicians. i=this is actually better than the original in my opinion
lol i love how the cymbals are like WTF?! 7/8?!
