[BigWalffle14]

7:20-7:29

The xylophone player is going nuts!

[acidbath32]

i love that melody that starts shortly after 3:12

How is this video of them winning WGI when the judge stated they can take the floor for exhibition??

[StringUsername]

@orangalien8mydog It isn't. The video is unfortunately mis-named!

[kabbay]

Start at 1:20 ..Wait a few seconds for the xylophone entrance. "It's my dick in a box."

[MikeBishop]

Thanks for the kind words, everyone! Much appreciated!

Also, thanks to Will Wernick & XyloSynth for capturing this video. The Centerville Preview Show was a special performance for me during the final week of my marching career, and I'm glad to have access to a video of it!

[cjramx81]

drumlines and shows like this remind me why i play marimba, and love every second of it

[StringUsername]

Someone should change the title. This was the Centerville preview show, not World Championships. The finals audience definitely wouldn't have fit into a high school gym. XD

[skater090001]

im not even gonna pretend for one second that this pit isnt redicously good.

[gcdrumguru]

@skater090001 Pit can really make or break an indoor line. And yes, this one definitely makes it.

[DmLax16]

@skater090001

truth

[magfav]

This is the most chill music ever! I love it!

[Schwabel3]

probably my favorite indoor show

[Cheeseball007ftw]

tenors sound real clunky at 2:50, heads loose? But damn, i really love the front ensemble. These guys can really set the mood.

[jrad767]

[xtreme0204]

[Palavalve]

I have never heard this much of the FE. Thank you so much for posting this. Every time I see the end of this I want to cry. <=]

[b8thspartan]

I love watching Mikes upper register bounce at 2:10, he pulverizes it.

[zace98]

that was sick as fuck.

[Schwabel3]

are they world open or a

[wallakazoo333]

definitely world

[dogfiighter33]

independent world

[joshphilippi]

sorry, but the pit has nothing on mystique's.

[dudeilvvrzn]

[CheifSmacho]

Uuuuh...Rhythm X pit is ridiculous..

[TruthDrummer65]

got to have respect for the pit

[cooliodoug33]

Hey the tenor with black glasses and bald is legaly blind i didnt bliev it but its true

[Chopp3dOuT]

yea its true you moron

[kosephdrums]

a lot of people are "legally blind" but they can see fine with prescription glasses.

[cooliodoug33]

i no but my band teacher told me all he can are lights

[wallakazoo333]

Matt Bowers is legally blind..

however, legally blind people can still see.. they just really NEED eyeglasses

[funkrok2010]

That fn bad ass marched at my school!!!

BOILERS ALL THE WAY!!!!!!

[PeanutButterGorilla]

@wallakazoo333 he's not blind in that way though. he has this weird degenerative disease that makes him only able to see general colors in things.

[xxwhereitbeginsxx]

HOLY CRAP!!! The dude on the right whose playing keys at 1:30 is a marching band instructor for my band!!!!

[playa32892]

i get chills every time i watch this

[Peaux]

They are beating the HELL out of those keyboards.

[advancewarsaddict]

Strictly speaking, a marimba is a keyboard, much like a trumpet is a horn. Either term is correct.

[adammo]

Lol, look at Bishop

[AndyAndrew12367]

WOW! i heard sum pit parts i didn't even know about ty 4 the post
