[supercool9456]

[midknighthitman]

[deepsouthwrx]

Tenor player has a DCi championship ring now.

[KonguAwesome]

@deepsouthwrx What's his full name and where did he march??

[Malletdude31]

I laugh everytime the solo cadence starts, and it just cuts to him wailing on the drum.

[Zdrummer45]

Damnnn that was mad tight

[tsadrummer]

I'd hate to go against you two in a drumline battle lol

[drumpopper97]

The guy in the brown jacket threw his diddles in a trash compacter.

[MegaAlexBush]

Is it mandatory to look the same on this drum-line?

[S1lv3rdo7]

I remember when drumline used to be fun like that. Don't ever lose that feeling.

[videomatt94]

Could you message me a copy of the sheet music or email it to me?

[eminem123456789ful]

damn we need to learn from you guys we suck compared to you guys

[MOPARedneck360]

If you can play Electric Wheelchair at 9"-Full Extension the whole cadence, you're probably a beast...just sayin.

[devilreter01]

Gotta say tt nick is nt oni good in tenor... BT awesome in snares tooo

[disputedwarhog]

A-FREAKING-MAZING!

[brooksturban]

how the hell do u do that snare trick at 1:50? the spinning one???

[percboy93]

@brooksturban its called casey claw i think.. look it up on youtube. theres a tutorial..

[saxdrummer92]

@percboy93 Bear claw...That's the most common name for it. 

[percboy93]

@saxdrummer92 ouh.. ok then thnx for info man! im used to casey claw hahha.. =D

[scifidrummergeek]

Just out of curiousity, and not having read any of the comments, what drums are you using? Pearl? Mapex? Yamaha? Dynasty? They look like pearls from the video, but I would like to know.

[figorocks]

niggas be real just know

[jholcombe93]

2:16 gives me a hard on.

[coolcooja]

Are these high school or college students?

[MooberrieBear]

@coolcooja paul is in/ was in(dunno if hes still in it) Ole miss's drumline, dont know about nick

[coolcooja]

@MooberrieBear no, where they in high school when they made this?

[MooberrieBear]

@coolcooja i doubt it

[coolcooja]

@MooberrieBear noticing that the tenors are six packs, it's probably college

[AetherPhantasm]

Damn that was awesome.

[killx5]

i didnt know that drake and josh were on a drumline

[TacoOnABoat]

@killx5 if they really were, i kinda see josh as a bass drummer, not so much a tenor/quad player...altho i can definitely see drake on snare, thats for sure

[SpankyWhispette]

@killx5 You only said that cause they have long hair.

So i guess that would make anyone with long hair drake and josh...?

[drummer265]

That was pretty cool to watch. Great job guys.

[ComedyOnTheRunCOTR]

How do you do that Stick Spinning that Paul does, when he performs his solo in the re-visited version? [He rolls and flips his right-hand stick around] If there is a tutorial for this on Youtube that'd help a lot. Thanks =)

[drummerdog80]

DANG!!!! that was solid, dont ever stop drumming!!

[TheCodygiles]

Yall need to find some bass players..

[figorocks]

@TheCodygiles yo wouldnt be able to hear it on recording unless it was a bass solo

[rockstarduh5]

Sweeps at 2:15 so f-ing clean. Very very nice work.

[TheMippo]

ending was fucking sick.

[drummaboy2346]

1:01 . Nice. Very clean.

[mbmaccin555555]

DAYUM, 1:49

[mikey16piet]

That third guys snare solo, sounded like piss. :(

[bradleystedman]

insane. i played tenors and i never did anything nearly as sick.

[epsig700]

I gotta say I've overlooked video alot, cause it's just two guys in the bandroom goofin around. after actually watchin it... That was pretty f-n good. keep it up.

[gbrock92]

the groove is fat

[ShineDrums27]

nick hit rim 6 times. but thats just me being an ass on youtube:) he could take a shit on drum 4 and it would sound better than anything i could do.

[perropeppe]

1:49 HOW IN ALL FREAKING HELL ARE YOU DOING THAT!?

[ddrmariomix3]

Oh my.. I need a towel I just jizzed all over myself from Nick. How the hell could a guy be so good?!? Never heard a rim!!! ;O

[monkeyrilla]

Nick is fuckin raw!

[jordan267450]

whats the name of the second cadence

[jordan267450]

i want to learn this on snare

[gingerbaby7]

Love electric wheel chair.

[chalmers96]

i am willing to buy one of thouse tenors up on the shellf and harnes for like 2,000

[mikey16piet]

The snare's arm flare visual at 1:48 .. How is it done? Will anyone be kind enough to explain to me. It looks really cool, and i'd like to know how.

[AziZune]

@mikey16piet I can't really tell exactly, it might be the claw (at least that's what i've been told that it's called), which is kind of hard to explain. If it is the claw, then you basically have to flick spin your wrist while pushing your arm out slightly out to get a rotation, but you have to grip up on the stick. If you do it slowly, it will most likely end up sounding like a flam, but you can speed it up and put it into a roll. It also might be the helicopter, which i cant really explain.

[shadows9209]

@AziZune Got it. I think the actual name is the Casey Claw or something like that, no idea, DCI started it. This one's inverted. In the original, you just hold the right stick about in the center, up like you're backsticking it, then spin it back and forth, alternating hitting the butt and tip. Once you practice and get it up to speed it can be fast enough to turn it into a triplet or double stroke roll.

The helicopter, FYI, is a claw with both hands. Bitch to do it, but it looks ridiculous.

[Crayo99999]

@shadows9209 THE HULKA HELICOPTER!=D and the one he uses here i believe is the one casey brohard from blue devils does. His is more of a triplet feel claw, which i don't attempt cause i'm just not a fan. I'm more so a Cavies person myself so i go for the original claw the Casey Claw which was invented by Mark Casey of The Cavaliers between91-93? i know they first used it in 94 and again in 95 with none other then Scott "Hulka" McCoy=D

[Muligan21]

Been out of playing for more than 10 years now and it's good to see guys having fun and doing a great job. Nice stuff guys...

[rockstarduh5]

Really nice Casey Claw there man. Really impressive. I think Ive watched this video like 20+ times.

[NebraskaBoy12]

@slipchikin no traditional style was created BECAUSE of tilted snares. snares were traditionally played with a strap instead of a rig, so they were tilted and drummers adjusted their grip to what we call "traditional style" today.

[Sesenmann]

Their both really great percussionist. I'm actually looking forward to performing something like this at my schools talent show with a fellow drummer of mine.

[BassDude9876]

holy fuck nice crosses 3:17

[DrumminFool7]

dude great video. i converted it to an mp3 and put it on my ipod my friend and I are trying to learn it. well not learn it note for note but were trying to make something like it me on tenor and him on snare. im not a tenor player I only play like orchestra shit like those percussion instruments. but we got five toms so ill try my best. Were trying to mimic the double beat 2004 tho

[carolyn103191]

@sammyjoehugh: You can find the music on the internet. I found the tenor and snare online. -free

[TheMusicRampage]

Should i get a Tenor or Marching Snare???

[sammyjoehugh]

Where do I find music for this for tenors??

[chutdigadut]

freakin quad player is GOOD

[Drumr4Jesus]

Tight!!!

[loltheasshole]

beautiful

[Midnightpitbull2]

da snare player aint got no grill!!!

[BattleOwner18]

at 2:43 the tenor player says that sucked hairy balls

[thehoaxbuster]

Paul, can I just say that you have immaculate technique?

[airsofter31]

so... could someone tell me how to get some sheet music for this... or could you put it on tapspace

[tysteere]

anyone have the sheet music?

[Radcookie69]

3:08 also epic!!

[GuitargodJ]

1:48 = Epicness

[tmoore1016]

joey you just fucking suck lol thats why ur on crash cymbals...:D jk joey

[joey09082009]

how are u guys so good im on fucking crash cymbals:(

[drummaboy2346]

How does he do his backsticking SO clean at 1:48?? Anyone know that technique, and where I can learn it?

[AsinisterJR]

The second snare player is playing with dead sticks and it sounds like crap cause of it. haha.

[austineatsbagels]

did you guys do any dci?

[drummaboi1423]

do those tenors have rims cause never a single one aha, fantastic tenor player. ive probably commented on this video like three times before

[planbskater565]

whys it called electric wheelchair? our tenor player does a solo in our cadence called that .... i was thinking about trying out for snare during out indoor season this year... i play drum set and vibraphone during our show and play cymbals at football games

[hotdogsplinter]

@planbskater565 they call it electric wheelchair because they could never keep the tempo even, and it kept slowing down.

[drummaboy2346]

Omfg that tenor play is SO clean!

[dm2291]

Haha well they got my subscription

[NLo2009]

sound like they rushed electric wheelchair a little but other than that it was cool

[caroliniamot]

cookies? i like cookies for sweeps or scrapes whichever you prefer. much easier to not hit rims with i think.

[randyrhoads4life123]

@slipchikin back in the old days like the civil war the snares were tilted hence why they had use traditional and not matched

[slipchikin]

why is his snare titled???? traditional grip is for untitled snares

[SomeGuyDrumming]

@slipchikin False. Traditional grip is for TILTED snares. Back when traditional grip was invented hundreds of years ago in Europe (even before america was founded) drummers marched with their drums under there left arm. This meant that their left stick needed to come over the rim comfortably, hense the underhand grip. As years passed, the drum was tilted upright until around the 1970s when the carrier was invented. Although the drum can now be completely horizontal, this grip is TRADITIONAL.

[kldrumming]

@slipchikin One word for ya........NECK

[Poptartdrummer]

snare, your good, but with those skills no reason to play that high especially inner notes on flams....more like double stops

[pimpd11]

I wonder why every corp style drumline uses that same snare solo for that solo cadence...? >.>

[xDrumsx4xLifex]

wow, eventhough i am really good at drums, this makes me look weak.

[drumcaptian]

tenor player is awsome snare is awsome as well so clean

[Alfawolph23]

matched on a tilt, schweet

[drumcaptian]

he so clean cause he knows how high his hands need to go the snae would get ate alive fromwhere im from because stick higth the judges down here dont like it

[drummaboy2346]

Guy at 2:33 was really dirty

[TPR626]

the tenor drums were tuned a little too low for me but it was still really good

[smccoli230]

Can someone please explain the backsticking technique he uses in his solo? The on where he holds the stick straight out and hits it with both sides. I vaguely understand the idea, but I can't figure out how to use it practically.

[chavez4564]

niiiiiiice. that split was so good!

[Cheznikkkk]

I love how everyone is saying that Nick isn't hitting rims because of his mallets. Think it's possible that he's just really really good? I do.

[Synsacrus]

@Cheznikkkk Seconded.

[rikuantu]

@Cheznikkkk considering that Nick is playing "Opie's Opus" which is a hard tenor solo ment for advanced players he can play it well considering its made up of nothign but Spiders and rolles and dittles

[TheMippo]

@Cheznikkkk That's kinda the whole point of using mallets.

[Cheznikkkk]

@TheMippo

What's that supposed to mean?

[TheMippo]

@Cheznikkkk It means the point of using mallets is so you won't hit the rim and can do scrapes with ease. The added width to the diameter of the tip is designed so that you won't hit the rim.

[Cheznikkkk]

@TheMippo

Ehh, not really. As far as I understand, mallets were the natural choice since the modern tenor evolved from the single tenors and the timp toms of the past. Now, while it may be easier to move a set of mallets around, MOST writers use it for the big fat sound instead of the thinner sound of a stick.

I've yet to see a good book where the writer waters sections because they're played with sticks instead of mallets.

[jlevenhagen1]

@TheMippo such a troll! this guy is sick, mallets or not!

maybe if i use mallets ill magically be able to play the end!

[TheCaptain435]

Yeah.... I think I give up lol.

[mikey16piet]

Oh my god. How the fuck do you get this good? ha.
