U.S. Marine Corps Marching Band - 2008 Rose Parade

[oldcar555]

perfect - but the game around. 4 months in the year of this out on the streets as we do in Norway

[JasperTag26]

@oldcar555 My dentist's son is in the corps and just got sent to Norway. What are they doing there?

[bman4099]

not to criticize but at 0:32 how the hell did he get into the Marine Corps

[PATOLINKY]

Circus Band.

[icytadbull]

what is the song played by the band?

[thatonebandnrd]

@icytadbull It's an excerpt from the Marines' Hymn, aka "From the Halls of Montezuma".

[SouthernPreppinBell]

Love a man in uniform

[zerrubabbel]

The military song sound less repetitive as a medley

[kreativdronare]

Send the Marines to The International Criminal Tribunal in Hagg for Crimes againt humanity, as defined by the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court Explanatory Memorandum. They are just a bunch of fucking killers against innocent people around the world. Sick!!!

[gringopenquista]

@kreativdronare Whatever it is you're upset about, I'm pretty sure that the guy out there in the desert doing the dirty work isn't to blame

[saxismyaxe]

@kreativdronare

Sling your left wing dribble elsewhere, you circumspect troll.

[BlackZeepa0415]

NAVY IS THE BEST!!!!

[jariemonah]

The insignia patches on their arms tell me that most of these guys are at least sergeant ranks. Sergeants kicking ass on instruments!

[AlanEppie]

I want to do this when I get out of high school. Nothing but marching band for the rest of my life. Hell yeah.

[Thetrollmaster2000]

@AlanEppie lol loser

[ravenbeast813]

Concert French Horns... Hell Yeah!!!

[oldHDbiker]

Ou Rah! We are the best trained and most efficient killers in the world. Semper Fi brothers.

[Bar10w101]

FUCKIN ENCLAVE!!!!!!

[sadbutsandman91]

marching with concert horns. badass

[ChoolyBuzkill]

Baritones, hurah!

[buffalochipz1]

Wow theres alot of saxaphones and claranets i thought the marine band only accepted brass in straments

[duncan7599]

Look at all the new recruits since President Obama repealed Don't Ask Don't Tell policy.

[Chesedodle]

if i ever joined the military, this is what i would do

[baconaman]

@TaoPiet

...Disney music....?

[superw1998]

@TaoPiet marine hymn 

[winterPaul19]

once a marines always marines forever.

[werlort04]

Someone from the audience: Hey you! eah you! you a frickin band geek ! *Soilder takes out M9 and points at his head while holding him down* Soilder: Say what ? Someone from the audience: You are a frickin Ba.. BOOM

[ALBANO2684]

@werlort04 They are Marines, not soldiers. I am a Former Marine myself - its like going up to an Airmen and calling him a soldier, he's going to say "I'm an Airmen, not a soldier". The Army are the soldiers, the Marine Corps are the Marines.

[JasonStogia]

@ALBANO2684 I think that by soldier he means someone who is part of the armed forced.

[ALBANO2684]

@JasonStogia I know what he means, but I was a Marine, not a soldier. the term "soldier" is in reference to that of the Army, not the USMC, not the Air Force, and not the Navy. Civilians have a difficult time understanding that.

[JasonStogia]

@ALBANO2684

Not only civilians but people outside of the USA aswell.

In most armies there is no such distinction between the "label" of those serving the different branches of the military.

[treythedrummer1]

@ALBANO2684 your allways a marine

[KiwiForce123]

@ALBANO2684 I think it's cause in nearly every other country if it has marines they are considered either part of the navy or the army.

[skyranger11]

@ALBANO2684 well said bro

[beastnull92]

Yay! Actual Horns! Not these janky Mellos...

[russ805]

rah! yut! kill!

[LPitcherDawg27]

wait.... they are marching, with.... HORNS? wow thats crazy

[kodoman66]

NICE LEGS!!!

[paulolivares21]

WE ARE THE U.S MARINE corps since the beginning of the Country and UNTIL HELL freezes over WE will be there protecting Every American Everywhere WITH our lives and everlasting Souls . I became A Marine WHEN I was 4 and Joined When I WAS 17 My Dad Was A MARINE until he Died AND I will be one Until then and AFTER ..

--- mylousmc

[kallewirsch1966]

Es ist immer wieder schön eine Parade der US Marines zu sehen.

Leute, Ihr stellt was da!!!!

Wenn ich dagegen unsere deutschen Hansels sehe werde ich richtig neidisch!

Let´s go US Marines. You are the best!!!!!!!!!!

[beatleskillvanhalen]

I cant believe my band is going to this next year..its going to be amazing!

[XXGDUBSXX]

XD I love how all the cowards and trolls try to get attention by bad mouthing the marines. No on cares what you say on the internet losers. If you ever met a marine in person you'd never talk like that.

[poopsack379]

niggers

[MrLGDef]

@poopsack379 cracker

[NukaCola777]

[BackDoorGaming]

[stucky170]

@libertateaaa who kicked germanys ass im WW2, i think it was the fuckin marines so ya go kill urself

[GamerSoviet]

@stucky170 The Marines were in the Pacific, the Army was in Europe

[XXGDUBSXX]

@GamerSoviet The Army was also in the Pacific.

[GamerSoviet]

@XXGDUBSXX But the Marines weren't in Europe.

[XXGDUBSXX]

@GamerSoviet no, not in the second world war. They fought against the germans in the first world war, that's were they got the nickname Devil Dogs.

[GamerSoviet]

@XXGDUBSXX Stucky170 said "Who kicked Germany's ass in WW2", that was the Army. In WWII, the marines were in the Pacific, as well as the Army.

[XXGDUBSXX]

@GamerSoviet yes

[GamerSoviet]

@XXGDUBSXX Thats what I was saying all along...

[BBPCxBLACKxHAWK]

@libertateaaa So, you want america to kick germanys ass for a third time?

[DJxKILLERBOY117]

@libertateaaa get the fuck out of my country and  do belive america has kicked germany's ass more then once

[Motive11331]

@DJxKILLERBOY117 Exceptionalism's fine so long as you're not a complete dumbass.

[CrazyForCooCooPuffs]

i wish they goose stepped

[PoohStickProductions]

and i personally invite you to call me and let me know how you feel. PUSSIES!!!!!

[38666212]

@xgibsonrockx123 i like your philosophy man and your video on "Perfect Blunt".

[nakallo]

what is the name of that upbeat and very catchy song from the usmc band, they play it early today at a retirement of a sergeant major.

[NiamOfAsuras]

USMC is gay.

I'll wait 2 hours then see how many people rage at me :D

[failtolawl]

@NiamOfAsuras troll.

[duncan7599]

Marine stands for MUSCLES ARE REQUIRED INTELLIGENCE NOT ESSENTIAL

[Cardinal1USMC101]

@duncan7599 So speaks a gutless wonder who could NOT and would NOt qualify to hold the helmet of a Marine !

[SlimySnail44]

im in a band but these guys are 1,000,000 times better than us lol we can barely march straight

[usmcdrgn64]

OORAH. Most motivating



[sk8rguy4life1123]

i dare you to call these guys band nerd... just look at iraq

[XxStrawberryAngelxX]

those are what epic band kids become!~

[FlierFrank172]

No better friend, no worse enemy.....the U.S. Marines.

[lolnation123]

wow and my band director tells us to keep up our horn angles pfft look at the marines

[evildude109]

What's the name of that step in the second half of the video, when they go into half time? It looks really cool, and amazingly clean! I guess I'd expect no less from marines.

[redifreddy14]

NOte no fat asses in the band unlike most military bands......each and every Marine ...combat ready

Semper Fi

[ZimJlp]

What an honor it must be to be in that band. Or any other Marine Band.

[jzilla138]

To think there was a measure passed in Congress recently to cut funding for military bands. Unthinkable.

[efsevios13]

save Greece, Greece will save USA

[MetalicaFan2007]

@efsevios13 id like to see that

[Deals4Courage]

Join the Marines.. Join Deals4Courage!

[MusicMajor1992]

Amazing... But i'd like to know why in the world they're marching with CONCERT FRENCH HORNS!!!???? When they could so easily get Melophones and nice ones at that?! hmm

[BassClefFTW]

@MusicMajor1992 There the United States Marine Corps they can do what ever they want lol

[AlptraumG36]

qliche uniforms lol , greets form germany to my us comrades !

[DMSoto86]

Any band that can play as wonderfully as this, and then if needed fire a rifle better than most other services has my respect any day.

[deathcorepyro]

who cares who's band is better when our branches can kick anyone's ass lol just sayin

[dumboldon]

God bless and protect these brave men and women. May he keep them in his hands where ever they go defending our nation and freedom.

[tubaman105]

where do i sign up after highschool?

[deathcorepyro]

@tubaman105

generally your high school can point you in the right direction, and you can look in the local listings for a recruiting station

[MrWuzzo]

Marching with concert baritones?

[ILickGlue]

@MrWuzzo If you mean euphonium, yes, and it is a common marching instrument.

[16vjohnny]

Semper fidelis!

[Sauerland39]

german marches are much more powerfull as your's.....

[em4rulz]

@Sauerland39 Congratulations. That statement earns you a grand prize of... absolutely nothing!

BTW it should be "than yours." No apostrophe. Also, powerful only has one l.

[agoddamnsexfiend]

@Sauerland39 We dont need large military marches.Why should we? We have no need to try and impress the world. As someone once said never bring out your military unless you plan to use it.Even on the 4th of july our marches are small. Instead we spend time with our friends & families cooking out and just celebrate being American.

[Martin3784]

sometimes it is to impress our own

[watanabe993]

OOOORRAAAHHHH I SERVE IN THE US ARMY

[litashix]

dam marching is soo fun when band+drumline does it!

[lclaughton]

Please tell your senators and representatives to support the Military Bands in the DOD budget...The US House voted to cut spending by some 38% Please do not let that happen in the Senate. Time is of the essence please ACT NOW! THE GOVERNMENT SPENDS UNTOLD MILLIONS ON TV COMMERICALS. PROMOTING THE MILITARY. LOOK AT THE GOOD WILL THIS MARINE CORP BAND PROVIDES TO THE PUBLIC...Please act ASAP.

[ChevyFreak63]

It's still odd to see marching french horns instead of mellophones. Tradition, I guess...

[francislepreux]

hello i'm french. i live next to paris and my dream is to see the marines music in usa. but it's very difficult. french army and américan army ares friends forever. my dream is not possible ......

[6silhouette5]

The U.S. Marines ARE the very best!

[bman4099]

try calling these guys band geeks and see what happens

[ReicheruAnn]

@bman4099 LOL an epic result!

[pepsiprincess48033]

@bman4099  Absolutely...... :-)

[rrclerk68]

@bman4099 Remember, Marines are riflemen first, and whatever specialty they become later. Even the band members have to qualify as riflemen regularly. In most combat situations, if the Marine band is along with the troops, they usually act as littler carriers for the wounded, but they are qualified to fight as riflemen as needed.

[cjross415]

@bman4099 I leave for basic training on the tenth of this month and this is exactly what I will be doing shortly after. USMC Band!

[bman4099]

@cjross415 good luck, semper fi

[sherrb1158]

For my father, and all who fought with him with pride an valour, "Hail to the United States Marines"! (And all of the US Navy guys that supported them). (And to all of the Britts and Aussies that supported all of us!) LOVE to all of , and to all of our Soldier and the great Britts, Aussies and other friends that stood the line with us!!!... and THANK YOU FOR DEFENDING FREEDOM!  From Bertie in Texas!

[themonsterjaws59]

dang thats alot of sousas!

[unfukkkmee]

FAKER COUNTRY

[zx1as2qw34]

what the fxxk? the erotic awful performence of the man@@

[somethinextra]

Great..!! US pulled us out the shit in 2 world wars.. Thanks Yanks..from a grateful brit.....I love your people and your country,Been visiting 5 times already...

[elithompandre8266]

USMC for the win

[j12torts]

you can tell the intentions of a country by its military parade is that right? well by the looks of it USA has a just intention of its interest in this world and that is to maintain freedom for economic advancement while China wants to dominate through oppression, to serve the need for the politician's glory and not the people.

[Terrapinfan2007]

the conductor with the cane walks as if he has another cane up his butt.

oooohhhhhh, feels goood!

[sgtkar98]

Why the conductor dances at the parade?I saw that at a JASDF video too.

[IDENTITYx9]

@sgtkar98 He's called a drum major. He's not dancing, he's performing. Traditionally, he and that mace he carries has been used to let the band know where the beat is.

[lillianclinton42]

DAMN!!! they look FREAKIN AWESOME!!!

[Wildgoose17Adriaan]

sure musicians

[89Czeko]

@Rowan616 lmao did it take you all day to think of that comment? go take your daddys cum load in your asshole, you stupid cunt.

[clarkiiboii09]

The drill and music is so diffrent between the British and USA Marines, personally I prefer the Royal Marines (My opinion, not starting a fight) good video though. But one question, why does some of the marines have a gold colour instrument and some have silver ones?

[EricCullum]

@clarkiiboii09 The different metals have a different resonance. Straight brass insturments have a mellower tone than Silver-plated ones. Silver-plate has a brighter, more ringing tone to it.

[clarkiiboii09]

@EricCullum Ah right, looks abit wierd tbh

[RusMegaDrill]

ха ха ха чувак кторый первый идет, как будто на подтанцовке)))

[Grizzydog193]

This left me speech less! O RAH

Always Faithful Semper Fi

[Harrypotterfan79]

SEMPER FI!

[XavierAJones]

I like how they use actual French Horns instead of the Mellophones...

[sea2see2me]

you wouldn't be hating if you were in a marching band. it doesn't matter who they are or what they do, its only about how they played and marched. this had nothing to do with politics. this is a marching band. and with any marching band comes hours of practice and hard work. are they blowing up bombs right now? no. they are being a marching band and bands like this years ago evolved into high school, college, and independent marching bands today.

[BorgieBabyxx]

i wanna go in that parade and tell them that they were all used and abused like crack

[gtrxxfiendxx]

0:30, this is no fucking excuse for a Marine. Is that guy really that fat? Or just me? Fucker needs to get running now.

[diana230]

either way...talk this SMACK TALK to a US MARINE!!! you may get to say "a word"...then you may just have an "accident" and trip on a curb and wind up in a hospital bed... :o)

[vonpilek]

лампасы как у казаков епти))))))))))

[Terrapinfan2007]

they kind of messed up at the end, i hope they're not gay.

Beating Retreat 2009 - The Massed Bands of HM Royal Marines - PART ONE

[Dianea2009]

Hi,

Not bad - but, take a look at this:

Royal Marines Beating Retreat 2009

Thanks US for the Harrier - without the USMC help - no Harrier.

[Heavy645]

Why the fuck are we fighting about this bull shit? The intention of this video was supposed to show the Marines performing, not bringing up a fight.

[23weet]

nice u.s marines!!

[mfaizsyahmi]

Your government is paranoid of the world for what they had done to other nation's economy and teaching paranoia and xenophobia in schools. So, go on quarrelling, words won't help heal the world.

P.S. Colour is always spelled with a U.

[USExceptionalism]

@mfaizsyahmi And Coward with 'C"

[DodgerBL]

Blame the government, not the military. Our military just follows orders. I have yet to see actual proof that the US military is doing unjustified massacres of innocent civilians in the middle east.

[peterboy48]

Californians at one time loved this country.

[biggles130]

Apart from the slanging match thats going on here, as a Brit who considers our Royal Marines Band is one of the Very best may I say that your Guys are the other Very best.

Both have a different style but both fantastic. Marines...your great!

[Nick22pr]

@biggles130 well, you see, our countries go hand in hand. therefore if one is good at something, so is the other. God bless the USA, and God save the Queen.

[MassacreUchiha]

@biggles130 thanks , we also have much respects for the royal marines band aswell! Much is learned from the motherland is it not ? Much thanks! OORAH!

[djk28161]

@MassacreUchiha Allscum.....lowest form of life next to cops

[rigamarrow]

@biggles130 THANKS, usmc thinks

[applepieindesky]

@biggles130 Lol well said xD

FANTASTIC BAND 5 STARS!

[elithompandre8266]

@bandsandgroupsdotcom Of course they're fantastic. They're USMC! Semper Fidelis.

[fromdirttodustpro1]

I know that the marines deserve respect everyone, but if you say that people who don't show them respect should be beaten then you are no better then they are. Marines, and the military in general, were designed to keep us FREE. To be free is to be able to say what we want, and as long as it doesn't harm the people around us, free of punishment.

[chutdiggadut1]

What is tune called that they are playing?

[beechum1]

@chutdiggadut1 That's the Marine's hymn Sweety.

[FenderDude107]

The Marines make the piccolo flute look badass

[elithompandre8266]

Marches get more patriotic and interesting when military marching bands play them. Weird.

[mnmacdonald]

Oh man! Look at those lines! Interesting marching style though, especially for the slow part of the march

[mnmacdonald]

Oh man! Look at those lines!

[Kmgirl121]

You guys did a Really good job!!!

[MegaLola48]

first to fight laugh now you will be screeming for buttermilk not much later
