Norfolk State vs SCSU-MDFS 2010

[dapimpkenny]

and as clean as you are sometimes (in this show there was alot of dirt, but i know how clean yall usually are), yall put me to sleep 6 mins out of the 7 min show... if yall didnt Bow at the end i promise u yall would hear crickets lol....

[dapimpkenny]

One thing i can say i really dont like about MDFS, is there shows never flow, i understand u might wanna showcase the Snares then the Sixes and the tonals, but that whole tap off before solo shit is corny

[isheinurlife]

Love IT ; -)

[isheinurlife]

BEHOLD the GREEN & GOLD!!!!!

[804beatmaker]

I swear nsu is like da only drumline dats tunes there drums da right way

[silkaem]

No disrespect to the other drumlines MDFS battles throughout the seasons, but I've noticed those lines tend to sound like NOISE to be... It's loud, it's overbearing, sometimes boring and unorganized. With MD, I know what I'm going to get: clarity!!!

[SpongeBQT]

:)

[FLEETWOOD1017]

you know whats missing?? They dont do what every other drumline do...they do their OWN THING...like it or not..its always tight....

[dedrickp]

They got chops, and they got talent, but there is something missing. Dont get me wrong, these cats are good. but there is just something missing

[kingjokerful]

@dedrickp i feel you

[chopzilla90]

Mdfs stands for Million Dollar Funk Squad.... but on da other hand can everybody plz I repeat plz stop sucking em... givin em a lil tooo much confidence.. especially sayin they better than dci lines.... I aint gon lie yea they at the top of the meac but damn let dese dudes nuts breathe

[Jay201309Dee]

What does MDFS stand for?

[urmamaissexi]

@Jay201309Dee Million Dollar Funk Squad

[blake111297]

are those the double sided dynastys?

[Shama212]

wow i freakin love this drumline I want to play for them so bad!!!!

[757PercussionSTS]

Grid Somethin'....

[smoovdaddy91]

Our BD line is on some other shit...like really! You dont have to love it, just respect it.

[jamesriles3]

Tuning drums..1st of all..MDFS have better drums than SCSU...material...SCSU had harder material..especially their snares. MDFS played at the same tempo almost the entire show...put SCSU on a set of PEARLS..and let them play the show again .SCSU was def cleaner. But..I def don't see ANY OTHER HBCU DLINE PLAYING WITH THESE 2LINES..BCU will be the closest if so...................

[Mrquenchme]

@jamesriles3 you most haven't heard what happen to sudden impact when they stop in durham...

[TheDragonmaster18]

this was excellent. it wouldve sounded better outside on the football feild though since the sound would have some where to go. MMDFS is one of the best HBCU lines out there. i would like to see these guys go up against TxSU FUNK TRAIN

[stutta3]

omg!!i reely love MDFS!!cant wait till highskool is ova so i can go lol

[ThriceCreme]

sheesh.. norfolk technically, sorta, kinda, REALLY WAXED SCSU!!!! DANG...dat was a murder.!

[kingjokerful]

no lie this is bad for mdfs it was dirty in alot of spots expecially tenors man it waz still sweet tho

[757PercussionSTS]

MDF$ took a L? Really? HaHaHa (Duece 2010)

[daphen0m]

seriously? Bluedevils? Although I agree that parts are dirty you can't compare a line that moves in and plays their drums fulltime to a line that only practices after classes for a semester.

[AKINGSKYD]

@daphen0m.....Good point. Lines can't please everybody these days. Like I told some guy before, ScoJo could drop from the sky and chop cleaner than a brand new white T-shirt with these guysand somebody will still find some sort-of loophole.

[kphicap]

listen to Bluedevils snares mash these lil niggas

[BlackCeaser04]

@kphicap dude its two diffrent styles of marching

[TheDragonmaster18]

@kphicap one their two different styles of marching, two one is pro and other is college and three the blue devils arenot entertaining like these guys shown here

[duecejsmooth2]

@TheDragonmaster18 actually,in dci you age out after the age of 21so i wouldnt consider them pros but I strongly agree with the point you are making

[ProfoundChopper2010]

Snares at 2:40  O_o ......such dirt... no hating...it's the truth

[AKINGSKYD]

@ProfoundChopper2010 real talk

[kingjokerful]

@ProfoundChopper2010 it waz slightliy dirty in the begining of it anyway

[tswtz2012]

why would anyone dislike this?

[kingjokerful]

@tswtz2012 cuz this waz their dirtiest show ive seen from them ever yo , dey sweet but dey feel off in dis performance it waz dirt all over the place

[stutta3]

@tswtz2012..they pressed the button on accident..lol

[Kashyouz777]

@tswtz2012 onli ah salty SCSU drummer wud dislike dis lmfao i kno i wuda ben hot if i waz n dey shoes

[chemist8897]

Oh my gawd....them bassess are SICK!!!!! The whole drumline..sounds great as always!! #1

[ced12]

NSU stop dicc ridin on yall past.....

[ced12]

yall BD's nice thats bout it

[jillion22]

bbi was cleaner what, bbi can suck my d!@#

[dsmalls100]

@jillion22 nigga stfu...quit being a bitch

[rudeboy338]

now nsu drumline there good give props where there do the band as a whole bring heat when they come

[themostfabulous10]

@rudeboy338 I AGREE!!

[navycmdcm]

MD showcases' true talent with pizzazz, not hackers just trying to jump around and blur the skill. Precision Entertainment! Make no effort to tear down any other line that put’s their heart and soul into the HBCU legacy. If you have to shred others to prove your tops…..well your not! Just talk and text….

[franzswa]

Great Drumline!!!!!!

[krumpboiruthless]

wooooww MDFS definitely one of their best shows. im sooo glad i can hear the bassline alone and hear them good!! sooo, can the first tonal played lend me his wrists please?? lol great show!!

[RANSOMPAIDFOR]

could have been cleaner...... but yea, boring much. the main thing that has always killed MD is their lack of good transitions.......

[AKINGSKYD]

@RANSOMPAIDFOR ....MD defenitely could've been cleaner but its obvious that their show had a bit more entertainment than BBI. You can clearly hear the crowd more during their show than BBI. Not saying it's a bad thing....just saying.

[justjay07]

SCSU take note... You guys are very very good. notices the slow griws ...Notice there isnt overplaying by the entire line every beat of the measure so the parts can be heard cleanly. Notice who the drumes are tuned. SCSU is great but its the small thins that make the difference between the two. SCSU is the only thing stopping themselves from being the bEST. drop a base or two and clean up the sound of them. Be more creative and u got the crown hands down. Until then MDFS it is

[jwa757]

aint nobody seeing md

[Bruceybeee]

First of all let me say that MD is the best Hbcu College drumline and would kill most corp style college drumlines there game. MD is in class by there self. To be totally real they dont even try to overdo the corp part because at a real corp competition with this type of routine they would not score very high because of the mix of show and corp, They tryin to show you they are a cut above the rest but we can still jam. Ps ANYTIME YOU GET CAUCASIANS TO MARCH FOR AN HBCU YOU DOIN SOMETHING!!!!!!!!

[Quenten16]

good,clean and technical.but that was it i dont feel there was any entertainment for those who dont understand percussion.(bcu snare)

[AKINGSKYD]

Both lines did ok. IMO, I think this is an apple vs orange arguement that'll never be solved. It just depends on your taste. MD entertained but were dirty in some spots, and BBI chopped it up like no tomorrow but a newborn could've slept in the crowd. At the end of the day both lines could've done a little better, but the sad thing about it is they're still light years ahead of most lines on these days.

[njtrumpet]

as i read these comments i just feel so sorry for most of yall music programs....i mean if u can say scsu was cleaner and more technical den sum wrong....dem outta tuned drums is shitty first off learn to tune ur drums first before u start talkin bout md.....mdfs is the epitome of a true college drumline(hbcu)...dat monkey swingin has no type of techinque and bass drums playin straight 4 are out to....yall wud learn something havin Mr.Bethea....he turns drummers into percussionist!!!1

[dsmalls100]

@njtrumpet if any body drums need to be tune....u kno nevamind.....its over....big ups to both schools

[jamoneymaine]

they went ham on dem boys

[dciboss]

MD..nuff said

[ced12]

and for yall to talk about all this clean shit tune them snare gates

[dciboss]

choppin....N yall put CHIEF IN THERE!!!???!!

[xMDFSxHallofFame]

~*MDFS Certified *~

Mann...Haven't heard the 2nd part of *Crazy* in a long time. The half/ time Jazz Groov' was always fun to play! It came straight from the *SET* itself!

Great job Soldiers!

~EXCELLENCE on Display!~

[Congobruh4]

My opinion, i say dat the battle between MDFS and BBI is a draw.......technical standpoint, BBI all day long, entertainment wise, MDFS got it, i love both drumlines, mainly BBI cuz dats wat i came up watching and playing, and MDFS captured me with all the grooves, and bass drum solos, but to me on the most part, its about giving the crowd a show and thats what MDFS did, if u really listen to the crowds reaction to BBI, it was dead, but of course, dey gonna make noise for the home team

[richmond09tbone]

@Congobruh4 lol...did you really just give technicality to BBI? #trippin.

[Congobruh4]

@richmond09tbone naw shawty, BBI cut dat ass Technically, BBI is cleaner and smoother

[TravelerofFortune]

@Congobruh4 techicality BBI? really? in the the words of Dr.Phill "what were you thinking"

[dsmalls100]

@TravelerofFortune u sound very fuckin stupid

[bluephi182k]

@Congobruh4 actually, the crowd was dead for both.

[Congobruh4]

@bluephi182k well u have a point

[bluephi182k]

@Congobruh4 I think both lines need to realize that what they are doing is for a different crowd. This event is for non musicians who want to be entertained. They are doing stuff that is for a corps style competition. They have to find the balance

[Congobruh4]

@bluephi182k yea and again u have a point, but consider the fact that even tho SCSU is a show style line, they have incorporate corp style chopping in their shows, prime example, the 1st Performance from Warren County 2009, they still chopped and play their usual type style

[dsmalls100]

@Askanison no offense but im a member of scsu drumline...and we play way more difficult stuff then u think.. our show was dedicated to a fallen member and understand we are a meac drumline, not a dci drumline. we dont try to emulate them, but even nsu fans say they took a L ..so it is wat it is

[TravelerofFortune]

@dsmalls100 you are the one thats very fucking stupid if you believe you play more difficult stuff than MDFS

[dsmalls100]

@TravelerofFortune ur entitled to ur own opinion.......

[Gigsteve]

@dsmalls100 wow...really???

[Mrunbiased1]

BBI was more technical and was clean as heck. I love being entertained but give me clean and technical anyday. BBI took this one but MD represented as well.

[Maestrosik]

@Mrunbiased1 ha ha ha ha !!!!!!!! Yeah you right i could have sworn u said something different last year ..... but Hey JMO....

[btwTrumpet2011]

NSU drumline tooo live !!

[MusicManC]

Go MD yall held sections battle down 4 NSU good job...

[Alderan2008]

@dsmalls100...BBI cleaner than MDFS please LMAO.......MDFS put on a drum clinic down there...they were way cleaner and way more entertaining. It was too much muddy mess going on mixed with tenor drums and kettle drums.

[blkplaya9891]

@Alderan2008 yes they BBI was actually cleaner. MDFS was entertaining you say? Ahh Ha. You mean they were more Cold Steelish. Their quints were the only thing that stood out in their routine, but to me BBI played with a purpose and the crowd was more appreciative of that.

[GotChops1]

@blkplaya9891 oh my god please kill urself...no matter what we do we still got haters...we cant do shyt with out some half ass drummer gettin on here and talkin shyt...garanteed any rookie on this line cant chop u under the table...get off our dick

[blkplaya9891]

@GotChops1 Got Chops, get some chops and STFU.

[1snare]

i liked em both. But scsu was more crowd enthused. Only so much choppin you can do before you loose the crowd.

[dsmalls100]

Bongo Brothers took this one,,sorry MDFS.....they were cleaner and the they were better

[bdrumma08Vstate]

Coming from....... Drum Phi VState.....MD went in on this one.

[vrian123]

nsu d-line is sick

[Askanison29]

@ced12 Man plz..they're still more technically sound than BBI AND you mean other HBCU drumlines are trying to emulate MD...check your facts and history.

[ced12]

@Askanison29 big dawg see thats where yall fucc up you so into yall history and i use to be a fan no lie til i got to college and really seen what yall really had to offer if you really think yall still on top bruh then you keep thinking that but yall dont wanna see it AGAIN!!!! i can care less about yall individual chops if you can bring it together as a section then yall are nothing come on like i said step that shit up!!!!

[Askanison29]

@ced12 Thank you Ced..thanx for showing us where you are...just so you know MDFS will completely embarrass the majority of most HBCU lines if they straight got down to it and all of y'all know it. It touches a nerve, thats ok I get it. But dont let your pride make you look silly. MD was being entertaining for the crowd. Its funny how folks would say.."y'all were technical but not entertaining" Now when they entertain your arses its the other way around..I get it now..and so does MD trust me.

[ced12]

@Askanison29 bruh who cares about the crowd you not getting judged by the crowd. you could play some shit from drumline and the crowd would crazy come on. you not making a statement you just teasing the real percussionist....thats really what matter show us that you belong on top not that you can entertain a crowd thats not even home........tthat shouldnt be your biggest worry

[LT074]

Nice!!!!!!!!

[MillioNDollargRl09]

Ey yo I knew yall would put it down, I'm mad just mad i was not there to hold it down with yall MD4lyfe...#11 09
