the only bad thing about the blue devils is that there is pretty much no rim sticking up on the tenors. its all pretty much level.....but other than that, DAMN!!
i think i might go to college there. It's a hard decision based on what I want to do in my future, i mean, i'm not gonna work. I'm going to do something else that's more active than a office with a computer in front of your face.
I'm 14 and I am in my High School band and I live kind of close to Concord, but I highly doubt I possess the skills to be apart of this band. I am a 2nd year Trumpet player trying to audition for my schools drum line next year.
@nesnaj21 If you really like music, go for it. try out for the Blue Devil "C" corp where you will get excellent instruction and be a part of a great group. In any case practice........ a lot........
@nesnaj21 If you want the real drum corp experience i suggest trying out for Blue Devils B that is if you plan on auditioning on trumpet. If you want to march drumline BD C isnt a bad choice although they are young they are phenominal players
@nesnaj21 Me to!Exept im a freshmen and i have been playing for 3 1/2 years and i would love to join any of these bands but thats cool you can try out for drumline
@600bri I'm a Freshman too! My Band Director is teaching me how to play snare and I am very enthusiastic about it. I just bought a drum practice pad because the snare drum I own is very cheap and makes a bad noise. And I also bought a snare drum essentials book so that I can learn more about drumming.
@nesnaj21 Wow really thats amazing!! i love the snare but i think tenors are better:) haha but o thats cool i would love to learn how to play any type of drum
@nesnaj21 do b corp i just finished my 4th year in the b corp and theres no better way to prepare yourself for the a corp than doing the b corp trust me whether its trumpet or drumline. workshop december tenth go check it out on the bluedevil website!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ill b there too
@nesnaj21 If youre interested in the drumline i would recommend trying out for the C corps, but if you want to be a part of the hornline i suggest trying out for the B corps (on trumpet) you would most likely get a spot on either corps.
@nesnaj21 look up DCI. these aren't marching bands they are similar to them but pretty much take out the winds, add a shit load of horns with 10x more sound, add beats that only a handful of people can play clean, and blow people's mind
i didn't say anything about me. i like the movie fine. it's what got me wanting to join drumline. i said my instructors and peers didn't like it. because it seemed that rickdawg527 was implying that drumline people all love that movie and i've found that that's not always the case, and i gave a reason why.
Actually, in my experience in a drumline, I found that my instructors and peers didn't like that movie at all. They thought their technique was extremely sloppy.
1:20 the second one in from the right ticks on the sticks up. :P But he makes that mistake cleanly and confidently lol. These guys are just ridiculously good.
@Toastassassin22 no they dont the one second in from the right is dean hickman and hes been my teacher ever since ive been in high schoool and hes one of the best tenor players alive if u have your elbows in it makes you look small.
@Tockwork i was gonna take a guess and say that you probably like that gay movie "drumline".....then i checked your profile.....lol. FYI, DRUMLINE sucks balls.
@acro2008 yea...but if you dont knwo these thinsg you don get better...and its NOT about whos champion every year...to a REAL muscian its about the music, the experiance, and the thrills.......and I find it kinda strange that the same corps make it every year...anyway of that boat...its about the music, friendships, that stuff...who cares about a stupid ring...youll realise this when your 27 or 30 and you can look back on this with maturity and think about it.
@acro2008 this message should you except to reread it...lol shoud be read in a verry calm monotone voice hahaha :P...im hyper today so peopel got lots of messages like this...that and ive been awake now for 23 hours!! AHHHH!!! :P
@studmuffinxDCIx actually i was watching an RCC video at the same time, and thought you were commenting on their video. then, when i saw i commented on the BD video, i deleted it myself. troll harder, "faggot".
@TOMMY22 Noooooo!! BD's snare line may have gotten a lil dirty this year, nd the basses may not be cadets level, but their tenor line is the best in dci! Hands down!
@A216shadoW a lot man. i was on Revolution Drum and Bugle corps bass line and they would change tenor heads every few days and thats 6 sets of heads for 4 or 5 drums do the math heh.
yeeeeeeah...but still.....as a devil, you should know that cross over passages are going to be tricky, so clean it up first thing. Slow it down to 120 instead of 160 or whatever and get it clean...work it back up and it won't be a problem. thats just how i was raised and to hear rims from BD is flat out unacceptable as with any line at this level.
I hope everyone on here who posts comments on here about scores, realizes that the percussion score is of THE ENTIRE PERCUSSION SECTION. Not just the battery. SO it reflects the front ensemble as well. So any fraction of a point isnt necessarily from the battery section. Too many people forget that and think that just becasue a drumline lost by .1, means that their battery section wasnt as clean as the other.
Vote this up so people read this before they post.
@drummer6590 Nick's first year was 09',I believe Brandon and Dean were there in 08. So for sure He was the only new quadplayer for 2010. For 2011 2 new, Chris and Andrew.
i love the blue devils but i dont think they will ever have a tenor line as badass as when the "Tim Jackson ERA" was around, that was unbelievable shit they played, now its just typical of what every tenor line in DCI plays.......still awesome though.
RCC though...? im pretty sure this isn't riverside...
