1992 Madison Scouts Drumline

[drumlinekix59]

I dont understand why no one will show full shows on here anymore, its disappointing

[BrothaNBlue2]

Has anybody seen my face. It got blown off.

[MrVosslerAzelas]

I remember this show like it was yesterday. Hard to believe that it's been 20 years and it's still as Epic as ever! Seeing this brings it back to my days in the drum line! Never forgotten!

[loval08]

yea, definitely my favorite year of drum corps.....all the corps were great that year! this was my favorite show though! :-)~

[aconstans93]

My instructor was on that snare line :D

[geologyjmc]

My favorite year of DCI! Every Corps was incredible!

[daveyboygee]

Very clean and clever tenor feature around :35. I do love this show too. IMO it was musically the strongest in DCI that year. No one could match the power of this hornline. Just listen to the overtones in the last chord!

Drill wise they were clean when marching. Leaving the hornline to relax through the 2nd half of the drum solo couldn't have helped their level of complexity rating!

That aside, this was my favorite of 1992 and one of my all time favorites too!

[drumcorps0junkie]

CAN DCI COME BACK TO THIS STYLE OF DRUM CORPS?

[quats69]

I know a drummer in this video

[joechopchop]

1 person didn't get a call-back from the Madison Scouts.

[drksdofthmoon]

1991 version was cooler!!

[modshaman]

Every time I see this my hair stands on end.... this is just Fing UNbelievable ......I saw this show live a few times and hands down one of the SCOUTS BEST........this is one of my top drum solos of all time and I've seen many Being a Drum Corps News photag. & a drummer with DCA's Erie Thunderbirds. Man O Man....Explorer Scouts The Inovatores of in your face DRUM CORPS......

[johnkwesif]

The whole show was uploaded but I was forced to take it down, sorry.

[SICK2210]

@johnkwesif THAT SUCKS!!! REALLY WANTED TO SEE IT! DAMN THESE CORORATE BASTARDS!!

[SICK2210]

1 person has no rhythm

[ikshields]

When the words "Madison Scouts" were synonymous with "clear the track, the express train's coming"...

[UMassColt73]

THIS STRAIGHT UP HOW ITS FUCKIN' DONE, NOT THE WAY DCI DOES IT NOW!!!

[drumcorps0junkie]

@UMassColt73

YOU ARE SO RIGHT

:)

[Michael55443]

The 1 person that got scrubbed the scouts doesn't like this video.

[USNavyCountryBoy]

I have this show on Cassette Tape. I still listen to it from time to time. I would LOVE to see the whole show. Please try to upload the whole show. Thanks!

BTW, the Madison Scouts are my Favorite Corps!!

[neilyvanneily]

I was in the audience that night. I was 13. I wish I could experience that again.

[kram3369]

Those were the days...

[bjjr1919]

An amazing sound for such a cold night!!

[guitars1331]

My uncle marched trumpet this year.... got chills at 1:18 and 1:32

[YEP321S]

@guitars1331 Back then it'd have been a Sporano Bugle, not a B-Flat trumpet. ;)

[geologyjmc]

Musically one of the best years of DCI IMHO... Everyone was great! To be at Camp Randall this night was pure bliss

[drumcorps0junkie]

bring this side of madison back

[BigHeadFarm]

sweet

[cainanuk]

1992... What an EPIC year for drum corps!

[drumatic11]

1:20 Chills!!!

[drumatic11]

Goosebumps..yes

[midkniteQ]

what did they place?

[huntercra]

my dad i think played with them for only 1 year because he didn't have money for the next years

[daveyboygee]

I saw this performance live. It was at DCI finals in Madison and the crowd were absolutely primed. Madison was, by far, the loudest corps that night and had a rich, clear brass sound that brought chills left and right. The ending set, which I heard was called the "House of Pain" set, was so close the front stands and compact that it just blew the doors down in Camp Randall stadium that night! I can watch this and remember like it was yesterday. Thanks Johnkwesif!

Go Madison!

[Mrsredhead01]

I would love to get hold of cadets show from this year. Love love LOVE this show!!!!

[SICK2210]

GREAT STICK HEIGHTS

[theprodegy12]

Madison needs to come back to this style of BALLS to the WALLS, i heard they've revamped the staff, so we'll se

[Mrsredhead01]

Which year did Madison start their show by the first set wrote out "MADISON" ?Does anyone know?

[grooms63941]

1:28 I heard a wrong note

[PrintScrn12]

Sounds right/purposeful to me. Whether you would prefer another note would be a matter of taste.

[swerdnamas]

In 2010, I PLAN on joining this amazing corps to make it better. I would be strictly honored to make a difference in a positive way to the perfection on the field. GO MADISON SCOUTS DRUMLINE

[jazzycat1]

Freaking awesome!

[wtf5strings]

and what place did they get with this show?

because this is amazing

[JazzmanSA80]

5th with a 93.7

[wtf5strings]

well 5th is good, but its a shame.

whatd their drums get?

[kietey14]

sick Mr Mitchell is on dis line lol

[TribalKleff]

this is the reason i marched madison, well 94 too

[jrejman1]

I marched in the Scouts battery '94-'96...Jeff wrote the quad break on Christmas eve in 1991, gave it to the line at the next rehersal, and said they nailed it from day one.

[cosmodrum1]

I know a bunch of guys you marched with, then.

Jansen, Yakas, Clif, B King, Spanos, etc.

[DrumlineGuru]

I am so glad I found this! I had this on VHS and played it until the tape broke! Then had the DVD, and someone sat on it! Gah! Man, this is one of my all time fave shows! I miss plate lines! Seems like no one does them anymore.

[jazzycat1]

Freakin Awesome! Love the Scouts!

[revresbo101]

i'm always prowling through youtube looking for some old school scouts. the beats are phoenomenal! great post!

[fretburner08]

this is awesome, make me proud to be a member.

[dc1030guy]

I love how this percussion showcase was written and how the tenor solo works into the melody and into the snare feature. Jeff did an awesome job writing this. This is one of the VERY FEW tenor solos that doesn't have any unwanted rimzzzzz !!!! Then the build up to the hornline makes the hair on the back of my neck stand. Still to this day, I couldn't believe how loud that hornline was behind us when they came in. Goosebumps!!!

[brown55061]

If you were in that battery, congrats to you. It was no easy feat getting into that line in the 90's. That feature is still on of my top 2 favorites, conveniently 94 was #1 heh. I sure miss the Madison of old days. BUT at least some of us fans got to see the prime before it got "fuzzy".

[brown55061]

From 92 thru 96 the requirements just to march in the scouts battery was ridiculously hard! I saw some of the music for auditions and I could barely play them. I miss the Scouts of old. Hopefully they make some noise in 09 and win some fans back.

[JDeazy]

:34 - :44 secounds WOO!!!!!!!! lol

[TheFarmboys]

I got chills at 1:57

[YEP321S]

@TheFarmboys I brace for impact at that point. 8D

[UMassColt73]

@TheFarmboys If you want chills find Madison doin Malaguena I believe from 1988......This is how its done but nothing comes close 88 Madison Malaguena

[YEP321S]

@TheFarmboys What about the bomb down the stack at One-thirty two? Dear God, one of THE best park and bark/BYAO moments ever. :)

[doublebassheeltoe]

My percussion director almost marched this show. He marched Star of Indian 1990 when he was seventeen and reconsidered DCI with the Scouts this year, but decided not to in the end. He knows these breaks though, still plays them fairly well.

[reefedbeats]

92 was the year

[jadebrew]

The beginning of this show is awesome

[hrnguy500]

I too have waited a long time to see this video, thank you for posting. This has arguably to best transition from drum feature to the hornline entrance....goosebumps every time.

[jackdostal]

Did you happen to catch the sweet baritone rip at 2:12? *awesome*

[Poppabear319]

Best Drumline Around!!!!

[chuchugada]

hell yea

[fran1eri]

Thanks for poting I have been looking for this all week

[fran1eri]

THIS WAS REDICULOUS, I remember this from when I was in highschool and made a cadence off of this drum break this was awesome.

[penguinboy2007]

freaking awesome

[drums4g]

I was waiting for this post!!! This feature is one of my favorites since watching DCI.  Thanks for sharing! (2 Thumbs Up!!) :-P

[MADROCKS212]

sure would be be great if you'd upload the whole show in two parts, it'd make us DCI fans really happy this is only on field footage of 92scouts on the internet.

[johnkwesif]

Upon your request the whole show is uploaded in two parts.

[SICK2210]

@johnkwesif WHERE???



[dazybug]

I marched 92Bluecoats and sat on the 45yd line a few rows up from the track, and to this day that show still gives me chills. I remember doing everything I could to get in the stadium just to hear that show one more time before getting ready for the last walk onto the field for scores re-cap. I'll never trade being a Bluecoat, but I enjoyed competing with Scouts during the summer. I knew Chris from the Guard. Please post the entire 92Scouts show if you can. Also if you have Bluecoats 92 Final.
