I like the sound of the duos. Gives an old school sound that most DCI-ers can't appreciate, but I love it. Thumbs up on the entertainment value as well.
@bailesie Actually the "tradition" of "duos" goes back to 1973 with the timbales. Then and prior to that the tenor part was a single instrument played in the same position as a bass drum is played. Someone else will have to speak as to when the single tenor was dropped and duo tenors were added.
@bailesie you know, i'm no expert but dont you think that marching with five drums instead of two would give you more vocal capability and a whole host of rhythmic expressions? i'm just sayin
My jr. High director went there. My high school band is bigger than this(150+). But I know they r supposed to keep it this size. I'm probably goin there in a few years and try out for snare.
This isn't the whole band. In the Rose Bowl parade, there were over 200. =) Just a name that has stuck. And it even used to be the Marching MEN. Things have changed.
that was cool? but i do have 2 ask, where there any girls in that drumline? ugh... im the only girl at my skool that does drumline! but i play the quints!
Hang in there. I played the quint/quad in high school with a girl for 3 years and now she's playing for Norfolk. I'm playing in a drumline that's just getting started. I know a few other girls that can play other drums better than a lot of guys too.
i go to johnstown high school and our band director was in the drumline at OU. Our band is the exact same style as they are. its fun. check out some videos of the Big Red Band. [:
hey if any 1 has ANY cadences for a drumline for(bass snare tenors)i will trade any SCV cadence/warmups like DOUBLE BEAT, ELE. WHEELCHAIR, KRAKUS, SPICE MON or any thing else i have(i have alot of shit!)from cavaliers,blue devils, ect..........
Definitly recognized some of those cadences (Jimbo, Uncertainty, Tequila (or as we call it Mudskipper), ect.). Now I'm actually thinking about going here.
hey jimitheguitarist, i'm in the johnstown Big Red Band currently. what'd you think of the pumpkin show? i thought that was awesome...loudest "ain't been good" i've ever heard lol.
WOW!!! 1:55 was pretty awesome....Excellent visuals and playing! And I would say its an old style corps!
Two problems: The drumline all have different styles of marking time, and some are more zealous about their visuals. Number 2, I don't know if its just supposed to give a relaxed feel to it, but the drumline looking around at each other to see when to go doesn't look very good. It should be practiced enough to be automatic.
Thanks for the props :) When you see people looking around it's because they're yelling back what cadences is called out. If you watch center right snare, he'll call out what cadence is next and it is cued back through the line. There is no set list of cadences, only what we want to throw out there. And yes, it's a very "chillaxed" line, so to say. :)
our drum line plays alot of these cadences from osu 's drumline like cherry, jimbo, and funkmarch but we kinda changed them a little, and the cadence you hear after every cadence is called cops and we sorta changed it.
[hey im from little miami high school and idk if you know but we base our marching band off you guys. i was thinkin of applying at ou since im a senior and im in the drumline but the problem is you guys dont have tenors/guads and thats all i know how to play!!!]
[yeah they dont have tenors/quads. instead they basically cut it in half give one half to one guy and the other half to the other guy. i forget what they're called. i think ones toms and the other is like tombales or someshit like that]
The Blue Lion marching band does a variation of these cadences. We do Funk, Jimbo, Uncertain, No!, Tequila, Gym Shorts, Mother, Cherry, and of course we do "Cops" for our parade block march. I'm the D-Hole player for the band. It sucks that we cant learn stuff like Robbers, Out Of It, and Cheese Cake...but it would take all year for our line to learn cheese cake.
I really enjoyed watching the Blue Lion Band. Though I am predjudiced towards Ohio Univ. since I am a graduate, Blue Lion did pretty good. I enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing.
i saw this performance. My boyfriend plays (but not in this performance) the hard work and dedication they put in is like no other. Absolutly phenomenal!
OMG Brad! He came to our Band Camp last year! hehehehe... Hey OU bashers, these guys aren't called the Best Da** Band in the Land for nothing. They look AND sound the best. And, their drumline rocks! So, keep your stupid and immature comments to yourself! ^.^
newsflash... the ohio university marching 110 is called the "most exciting band in the land" not the best da**. that's ohio state. this is ohio university. jzt wanted 2 clear that up. no hard feelings. ur right about their drumline rockin though!
^.^; Sorry, we have a coupla' twerps at our school who think they know all there is to know about OU, and that's what they call them. Thanks for correcting me!
OMG BRAD! ^.^ He came to our Band Camp last year, hehehe... And, hey, to all you OU bashers, these guys rock! What are you talking about, saying they don't look good?! They aren't called the Best Da*n Band in the Land for nothing! You guys rock!
sounds decent but i would be embarrassed to play this cadence. Also, they are lacking technique. And last of all, its 2007, your allowed to use quints instead of whatever those are called
The 110 is a traditional band, hence traditional instruments. Technique? Perhaps it's lacking, but you also have to realize that most of the snare line had DCI experience. The style of performance does not need to reflect perfect technique or rudimentary styles.
first off- which cadence? and two, the 110's a show band, not a competition band so it really doesn't matter about technique as much as showmanship. the " whatever it's called's" are called TIMBALES. and they're a traditional style band so it really does not matter if it's 2007 or 1967, they can use timbales whenever they feel like it. im standing up for the 110 line. why? because i love them and i would be proud to be a part of them some day. keep up the good work Ohio!
thats good that u stick up for them cause they could use a fan but TIMBALES are not sounding good there buddy. But the lack of technique takes away from the look and if they are a show band they they have to look good
just so you know - the "jimbo" funk cadence was written by jim warrick, who went on to teach at lakewood high school starting in 1977 - so we were probably one of the first high schools to actually play the jimbo funk cadence - and since ol' jimbo was a percussion major, our drum section was pretty tight...
What a joy to my heart that these Marching 110 videos are out here on YoutUBE. I graduated in 1980! And we frickin' rocked out then and NOW!! Nobody, but nobody does a college band like OU!! And even the football team is improving.;-) You guys play your heart's out in the GMAC Bowl in January. I'll be there watching!
I must agree. As a '73 grad of OU, watching these videos brings back wonderful memories of the 110. The chills we got when they ran onto the football field. Can't beat the feeling.The 110 is the best "GO OHIO"
One of the cymbals in the video is a girl :) This year, there's another girl cymbal who is very talented. A few years back, we've had girls on timbales and snare.
Well, I'm glad you find it light hearted and jovial :) I just love good comments! </sarcasm> Most of our line marches DCI (including the current section leader was top bass of cadets) and are used to more technical playing - OU is a Showstyle hybrid line, hence the easier cadences. They're meant to groove, not to please flam-drag fighter pilots.
Let's not forget just how enjoyable it is to watch you guys actually having FUN! That seems to be an ingredient left out of a lot of drumlines these days.
Our Cadences aren't supposed to be difficult and technical, even though most of our line has had corp experience. Also, most of the cadences (aside from Your Mother and Cheese Cake) date back as far as the late 60s. As far as planned out? heh, not really.. You can see pugsley (beside me) calling them out in whatever order he likes :)
That must hurt the guys for the pelvic thrust with the drum.
I'm in Drumline at a high school, but our cadence is twice as simple at this.
This is is just abit better then some of us, but we are in Major State Marching Band Shows (Against other marching bands), shows, and events, so some of us have really "ill" talents.
Bad Ass! I'm a Senior and Bass Squad Leader up here at Tiffin Columbian. We play most of your stuff (Cops, Cherry, Jimbo, ect..), you guys should come up for a game and come down on the field :D OU DRUMLINE ROCKS \m/

It's a tradition that has gone back from 1967 - It actually gives the line more vocal capability and a whole host of rhythmic expressions.
