Cavaliers Drum Feature Finals 2008

[Blackatoa200013]

How can you dislike this video!?!? Freakin trolls.

[spacitydrummer4JC]

Easily my favorite show of all time. 

[chrisman180]

only cavies can make match grip look cool

[TonesOfYou]

The tenors tune up fifths starting at A# right?

[thsma2009]

@BORED560 cause they were originally a boy scout troop.

[thephamcookiemonster]

What are those orange boards on the side of the drum? is that what they hit in the section before this?

[Frickashade]

Its an all guy corps

[gtrocksyosocks]

Lord all-mighty this is my favorite show of all time.

[joschneider1]

If it's not hard to play, then why would it be a "bitch to clean?" doesn't make much sense to me. I mean, if they can all play nail it in time, every time, then shouldn't it be easy to "clean?"

[xXMeikoChanXx]

holy crap i just find this so amazing

[MrSnareplaya]

i like how the snares are titled just a little bit. not too much not to little

[idrum4jrny]

BODY MOVEMENT IS INSANEEE! :D awesome

[JLomax0711]

2008 Cavaliers > 2010 Cavaliers

[DrBeatDrummer]

@JLomax0711 agreed

[TransPragmatic]

my fovorite drum break out of all the corps so far.

[Bath1337]

Looks more like Winter Percussion rather than...well you know

[tjw889]

@Bath1337 It was perfectly appropriate considering the theme....

[animelover3400]

This is mad awesome. Should have beaten BD in my oppinion.

[cddrummer96]

i love the couple of harnesses that have the japanese rising sun on the top of them

[TheMilky33]

Dang, only if Carmel drumline had that kind of coregraphy

[JonnyHammersticks]

The matched is taiko style.

[monkeykid1030]

does any one have this transcribed? i dont have a lot but can trade stuff i do have

[BSBINC1]

they dont play macth its part of there show

[geikco]

they don't usually play matched, it was just in this part of the show

[famguy619]

when i first saw this vid, the video lagged, but the audio kept going. i thought it was one tenor, one snare, and 5 basses..i was surprised to see a full line x.x

[mashdoctor]

Of all the things I saw in this show, the choreography in this drum feature was by far the coolest.

[TunaOfTheLand]

YESSSS

[TrueSlayer]

ha ha carrier adjustment at the end ftw lol

[allstar550]

lol I know the feeling

[PCsnare]

this is cool stuff. But you guys need to all go out and watch bluecoats 08. ballin.

[aenyxx]

Bluecoats were pretty dirty in 08 until they watered their break down.

[Snebasseor]

It's hard to believe it was beefier, it was freakin' hard and clean.

[Schwabel3]

I'm not going to lie this is better than 2009

[jaygarrish1]

so much better

[drums4694]

nuf said

[HaroldandFred]

I love this drum break! IT has to be one of my favorites!

[spacitydrummer4JC]

..possibly the coolest break ever

[stanhawks]

amazing=D

[whitfkl318nu]

Only one mistake as I see the Cavs made this year in production. They should have had the main battery outfitted as the guard and the pit--in samurai attire, or at least the headband rather than hats.

[c7snare]

this is fucking cool

[tvheartache]

DAMN. Go Cavies. Shiiiit.

[panthersroc1]

Not really, and you can't set yourself up for that's what she said jokes. Unless you're like 12.

[drumsultan]

that is sick.

[pantherbandroxursox]

that was pretty freakin awesome

[Palavalve]

Lol, does that snare have a Rising Sun on his carrier?!

[topgunne12]

YES!!!!!!!!!!

[whitfkl318nu]

Only one thing the Cavs did wrong this year: The percussion battery should have been dressed like the pit and colorguard to give greater emphasis to the Japanese ambience .

[ZXROMEO]

Weird, glad I'm not marching these days

[sargepup]

he we're glad you're not marching these days either. besides, you're probably too busy trying to get your pig wife to bang you with no luck. you've got a lot on your plate we should let you get back to it. ass.

[NIKKIandNICOLEshow]

lol wtf why are you gettin pissed off?

[griffdrummer]

Not too hard to play, but it looks so badass.

[kjac18]

Might not be hard to play.... but a bitch to clean! And that was clean as hell!

[yellowmanffxfrk]

and they kept it in time too!!

[thsma2009]

@kjac18 lol i learned this and at normal non visual heights, i can play it fine, but playing with vis heights is hard to make it sound good.

[bammxitsxamanda]

nice...

[wtfozlolzrawrx3]

nice sticking.

[giultyspark343]

i dont mind that they play matched, but they do it with tilt, eew

[dizzysn4res]

The price of authenticity :p

[guitarhero357]

They've been using less and less of a tilt the past few years so they can do things like play matched in certain parts of their show.

[Dragon150043]

Well i have never seen a Taiko drum played with Traditional.

[giultyspark343]

true

[comptonbrotha]

they only played matched during this section.

[giultyspark343]

yah i know, but they do it several times in the show, like right before the drum break before the go to chop blocks

[geikco]

@giultyspark343 they don't usually play matched, it was just in this part of the show.

they switch back to traditional by the end

[changbang412]

@giultyspark343 traditional makes a lot more sense with a tilt considering traditional was made because snares were originally tilted.

[Bzong]

@changbang412 captain obvious

[changbang412]

@Bzong you'd think that, but a lot of people don't consider that.

[Bzong]

@changbang412 well why tell it to giultyspark343? he wouldn't have commented about the match and tilt thing if he didn't know traditional was developed FOR tilt.

[changbang412]

@Bzong lol

[meatwad314]

@giultyspark343 they only do matched to emulate Taiko drumming, a Japanese druming, look it up, its intense

[spacitydrummer4JC]

Cavs had best visuals this year and BlueCoats had best sound. I think..

[MassacrMan]

I agree on visual, but Phantom Regiment I think had the best sound. Though the Blue Coats did let off some huge emotions when they played.

[drumhead89]

I love the switch they do between match and traditional sticking. Loved the show this year!!

[Noonan1223]

badass, and im not usually a fan of the cavies. except from a drill/visual standpoint.

[ju4u1]

i love this break! wo samurai

[Na8ters]

best drum feature of all DCI this year period.

[SKSevenswans]

Sorry, I would have to give that one to Coats.

[walshk7751]

Agreed.

[madjical]

oh yeah man, coats threw down this year like it was no ones business.

[spacitydrummer4JC]

Very nice.

[lolz989]

wait?

why do the cavies have red drums with

green and white uniforms

[faultyga]

cause they look g

[JBtenors08]

to go with the Samurai theme of their show.

[twinkiesoup]

love their harnesses. especially the snare with the explosion looking one.

[rreemmzzrruullee]

i think thats supposed to be that whole japaniese rising sun thing

[xSabiaNx]

I think your right

[paramoreluver163]

dam freken great

[Na8ters]

fucking sick

[MarchingBlueNGold]

Samurai was an amazing show! i would kill the march with these guys!

[Evian05]

I've been kind of critical of these guys the past couple of years but man you guys were excellent this year! Keep up the great work over there!

[natsnbats]

haha great video. loved how they're so on tempo and everything wonderful

[kfizzle441]

cavies and cadets are the only ones that can make yamahas sound that god haha..

[kfizzle441]

*good

[yeahyeahyeahyeahya]

yamahas are way better than dynasty, but i think pearls are the best : )

[kfizzle441]

yep. my school used yamahas and they sounded baaad. we switched to pearls though and they sound great. some of my friends march academy/ASU. theyre using mapex's and those sound pretty good too.

[LibertyCoSnare]

OMG I hate Mapex marching stuff. It sounds like crap. Dynasty tenors and basses are the best but Yamaha snares are perfect.

[kfizzle441]

idk where you heard them, but the ones i heard sounded pretty decent. i did hear that it took a lot to get them to sound that way though.

[ccdrummer]

agreed.

[advancewarsaddict]

Has someone transcribed this? I know the snare break right before this, but I can't get this.

[RyanZawicki]

It's a beautiful sight now, isn't it?!

[CaviesFan123]

that is a beautiful beautiful thing

[illBUrFriend]

This isn't their drum break?

[illBUrFriend]

Sorry, my last comment was weird, anyways, what I meant to say was, is this their drum break or a just a part of the show?

[Dmully]

its the second half of it. the visual based

[illBUrFriend]

alright, thanks!

[RyanZawicki]

I friggin' love their new drums!

[lmeister3]

Badasses

[drumdilly]

The more I see this- the more it makes me laugh- Midwestern white boys doing Asian style stuff

[tizzizzailslf04]

Just because the corps is based in the midwest doesn't mean that the members are, buddy.

[bltsponge]

I loved cavies show this year!

[MCMystique07]

just because there is body in it doesnt make it hard. this whole section isnt meant to be hard, its meant to be good ge. and it is. but its still easy.

[MadCoSnareLine]

The percussion judge himself said it was hard...

[1OOYears]

HOLY SHIZ!!!

[santiman44]

fuckin faggots

[shsquadfather09]

that was awesome

[henne2k]

eihghts and quarters are way more difficult than fast rolls! especially on that height.

[ChristDiedToSave]

wow, so saying that this is easy, it really jurkish.

you know how much hard work they put into this show?

ALOT. so until i see you out there wearing the green you can shut up.

[santiman44]

ur a faggot too

go suk a big cavy dik

[Geekman1118]

That looked really easy.

[ybooby]

its a lot harder than you think. We had body movements in our show this summer and its just hard to clean

[maverik90]

body movements plus getting all the attacks and whatnot clean is so much harder than it looks.

[guitarhero357]

It was back by Armstrong Field

[jrodhatesuall]

where was the warm up area
