Spartacus KHS 2010 Marching Band Show (Xymox practice pads)

[uasuka]

never rest the tips of your sticks on the pad or playing surface before you play...every percussionist or good one at least knows that. you look like a fool doing that

[orangecountydrums44]

@uasuka Couldn't agree more. Should be half an inch off the head. Looking at this video is kinda cool for me. My hands look SOOOO different now. I auditioned for The Academy drum corps (didn't make it) but I'm not attending masterclasses with the snare tech from The Academy. Huge changes to my technique...and they're changes for the better.

[nikkdawg6]

This is really good:) really enjoyed it.

how are the xymox pads btw? i was thinking of getting one.

[orangecountydrums44]

@nikkdawg6 I like my pad, but I also got an Invader. I like the sound of the Xymox pad more, but overall for the feel, I like the Invader more.

[RogueSniperX]

How does your xymox pad sound like that?? Mine sounds no where near that! Your sounds sound amazing

[orangecountydrums44]

@RogueSniperX I have the one with the BBs in it, while Dean has the same pad, but no BBs. Maybe it's the combination of the two of them.

[RogueSniperX]

@orangecountydrums44 Ik that but mine sounds different.. I have the snare one, but mine sounds different. Yours sounds perfect

[haijesslol]

If you're from Arizona, you and your friend should come try out for Dark Sky Percussion if you like indoor :) Unless you guys are going for World haha.

[deango6]

@haijesslol Dark Sky's in Flagstaff right?

[Gameking3644]

box 5?



[GINGERKIDFOREVER]

hey where can i get the music for this

[DDRsensation]

This song shows up when you search Xymox pad :P

[mexicanpoptart17]

don't ya hate slow intros

[kepper55]

So I'm not a percussionist, but I still enjoyed this.

[orangecountydrums44]

@kepper55 Thanks! :D

[TheRew400]

Well, ok, I got it to print... but, I couldn't blow up the picture to put it on 2 separate pages... it makes me mad

[TheRew400]

I'm having problems with the sheet music... 1) it should be separated, so one like myself can get the entire piece, and not just the 1st page, and 2) the right edge is cut off, so I can't get the rest of the line... please fix for printing

[orangecountydrums44]

@TheRew400 I had three pages and put it into one picture so I could just scroll down, and the right edge isn't cut off. I just looked at the music, and everything is there.

[TheRew400]

@orangecountydrums44 when you go to print it from the link, the edge is cut off, trust me, I tried it like 3x, thinking it was my printer, all on different settings...

[TheRew400]

@orangecountydrums44 when you go to print it from the link, the edge is cut off, trust me, I tried it like 3x, thinking it was my printer, all on different settings... and also, it only prints it as one page, and it only says "page 1 of 1" at the top of the page... :/

[deathangel119]

Are those DC-50's? And you might want to fix your traditional a bit keeping both fingers on top of the stick I'm talking about the guy on the left btw. Otherwise pretty impressive.

[Avocado0Productions]

Hey man I got this music about a week ago and listening to an indivisual part makes it real easy to learn. Thanks very much.

[orangecountydrums44]

@Avocado0Productions Awesome! Best of luck to you this season. It's a really fun show.

[MrZball75]

got music for it?

[A7Xblood]

@MrZball75 In the description

[Garylopl]

Is it more or does the person on the left look like they've got their middle finger way too out on the rolls and some other parts? Also keep it on the stick.

[isthisabettername]

your better off buying a metronome rather than using half a pad

[MrAc2181]

sounds great! except the guy on the left you sometimes dont play in the middle, you play off to the right, unless the music calls for it, idk lol but again sounds awesome, i just order the SCOJO pad.

[orangecountydrums44]

@MrAc2181 Yeah. The music calls for it. But who knows, I may drift away from the playing zone. But if it's to the right, that's where I play if the music calls for it. I'm not sure if Dean was doing playing zones during this run. So that may be why it looks like mine are wrong.

[ivanha1]

3:09 Take these chains lol

[SenorCanadia]

you plan on marching drum corps? i'm auditioning for the cavaliers this weekend :P

[SenorCanadia]

@SenorCanadia on tenors, but of course

[orangecountydrums44]

@SenorCanadia I don't have the money for DCI yet. But I hope to try out for one next season.

[SenorCanadia]

@orangecountydrums44 try for the cavies. idk how that works for you location wise but it'd be worth it regardless.

[orangecountydrums44]

@AceDrumm3r Two. We took all 5 captions and got a Superior with Distinction at state last saturday. Hamilton was not happy about that and now we need to improve by saturday for state champtionships.

[thunderbomb501]

Nice, i would just say work on your control and try to keep the stick heights down and work on your grip, other then that it wasn't bad!

[HomerSimpsonIsTheMa]

dgdfg

[drumkid1982]

hey, hows that scojo snare pad? i just ordered one and i was wondering how it was

[orangecountydrums44]

@drumkid1982 It's freaking awesome. I love it. It's a little bit loud for a practice pad, but I love the feel and sound of it.

[3ace13]

@orangecountydrums44 thats what she said lol jk

[mytownisnotyourtown2]

umm if you dont mind telling me what state is your band from? i was wondering do we compete against you guys

[orangecountydrums44]

@mytownisnotyourtown2 Arizona

[mytownisnotyourtown2]

@orangecountydrums44 oh thats cool. we are a tennessee band. glad we dont have to compete against you. i bet you guys are pretty good if you practice together like this

[NotSpiffums]

Dude, I'm the bassist for a division three marching band (front ensemble ftw) and our show theme this year is China, gonna admit the show's pretty sick. You should upload some videos if you can of the show live and I'll try to upload mine.

[HoundSyrup]

[orangecountydrums44]

@Cure3 I'm pretty sure we're division two. Two years ago we had another Gilroy piece.

[Cure3]

@orangecountydrums44 Oh, so you guys aren't SCSBOA? That sucks.

[MCAntiFire]

Most people dont understand marching bands drummers, they say oh there only using one drum well it is amazing how well you all play. Well done OCD

[rkonmango]

MY SCHOOL IS KHS !

[IBitePrettyHardSH]

Good job, both of you. Well except for Trace, he keeps getting out of step.

[closemyeyesplease]

[VenomStepmania]

It's a pretty sick snare part I learned it already xD

[DLCBJE]

Hell to the yeah budz0rz. Also something about fat.

[drunkenmonkey2]

i wanna see yo mermaid hair

[kietey14]

sweet bro. I undestand why ur so good at RB now. I march Drum Corps myself and Im a beast on RB drumset becuz of it.

[VenomStepmania]

@kietey14 RB becomes so much easier because when you march Corps, you understand fundimentals, and it makes you think more about the song.

[numcaps2]

You messed up the website name in desc. Persussion shuold be percussion :P

[atomikfzr1]

9's ftw.

That's some good stuff.

[CODMW26]

[TheOneSax]

probably one of the coolest sounding shows i've heard in a while... thanks for posting!! 1337 drumming and the recording sounds really fun on the bell and brass parts!

[EmperorKyuu60]

[chaveznieves]

linkfail

[mytownisnotyourtown2]

hey man if you can do you think you can put something up of the whole field show like your band playing? i would really like to see it.

[orangecountydrums44]

@mytownisnotyourtown2 When we get it down I'm sure I'll have something up. I always get a dvd from state and I can usually put it on here.

[TheGuitarBlade]

u on left?

[Deathwish42]

That link sends me to a drum cover by kknyrass and not to the music.(not that it's a big deal seeing as how I'm a mello player and not a snare drummer)

[orangecountydrums44]

@Deathwish42 Yeah. I just noticed that. Apparently I was watching that video while I was trying to do the description. But now it takes you to the music. Sorry about that.
