BK Bass I&E Ensemble 2008

[daesianx3]

GO AC!! xD

[nquadwetrust]

Yeah it was s lot of black lol!!!!

[damulac1]

The sheet music must be more black than white

[SolarFlamer]

I'm just curious kre8havoc were you on the bass line or are you just a fan?

[kre8havoc]

@SolarFlamer I was bass 3.

[mexsnare7]

the black guy is freaking awsome lol

[nquadwetrust]

why thank you!!!!!

[jhs9412]

Looks like whoever is in charge of body visuals at Rhythm X watched this, and kept it in mind when writing them for Touch.

[michaelbackhus]

Thank You for the "BK BASS" keep it rollin

[nquadwetrust]

thanks guys I think there should be no comparison to 2007 cause we did "What We Do". That was a AWESOME bassline and there are things they can't do and there were things we can't do, feel me. The 07 krew loved us along with the United States of BK Bass loved us. What more could you one really ask for ya know?

[glassjawnoidea]

So much better than 07. Nice job guys!!!!

[866596]

are you kidding...07 was epic. this one was good but not as good as 07

[jjguerra48]

most definately! this one doesn't compare.

[wittlekasey]

omg bass 3 is a total dime piece.

[kre8havoc]

No one was on Stryke this past season from this bassline.

[nquadwetrust]

Bass 4 marched for BK indoor b2

[drmmrboy88]

was bass 3 part of stryke this past season?

[nquadwetrust]

It was I like big . . . . butts

[Entrepinoy707]

"5....7...i like meat"?

inside jokes im guessing

[866596]

bass 4 and 5, did 5s, bass 1,2,3 did 7s, the split was beaffy :)

[nquadwetrust]

silly glory boys. . . . maybe somebody should compete other than Kenneth Clark and Jen Burns and be successful in the past 5 + years

[swmauro]

LOL! NAw man looks hes one of us----BKSL-- MFBK

[nquadwetrust]

A very unnecessary roast if you will for a poor ill informed soul. . . but funny non the less manny lol!!!!

-AC- BK Top 08

[daryk44]

what are those hand signs you guys made? It's been bugging me for the longest time.

[BirthdayQuake]

@daryk44 It's sign language. They used it in 07 as well.

[daryk44]

Well, i figured out as much. Do you know what they mean't?

[BirthdayQuake]

We spell out M.F.B.K.B.

[nquadwetrust]

I wonder what that means. . . . hhhmmmmm

[swmauro]

BK BASS-2008-MANNY-BOTTOM!

[swmauro]

If you actually marched you would known that SCV did a bass ensemble too. BK BASS and SCV Bass are the standards for I&E's----it takes alot of time to do i&E Only the ones that can handle it and have the dedication--will do it-----SO u see not that many lines do it sooooooo-----What does that tell u

[BKSLrich]

Hopefully this year there will be another bass line willing to compete. BK winning is sweet, but actually beating someone is baller too.

[Mazzus21]

for some reason BK as a Corps hasn't grown on me, but I LOVE their bass line..Absolutely ridiculous year after year..I go to I&E just for the sole purpose of seeing BK

[nquadwetrust]

I can agree with that but from a educational staff point of view I wouldn't want to play bass anywhere else honestly ya know

-AC- MFBKB08

[drumsticks09]

I'm partial to SCV and plan to try out for their cymbal line next year but I must say this is one of the best Bass I&Es I have ever seen.

Where do you guys find time to work on these things? I know you spend almost all your time practicing or performing shows.

[nquadwetrust]

man you'll find time if you really wanna do one there is PLENTY of time. . . it just means you might not get to watch some lots or be the first in food lines . . . but small sacrifices

[RajaHibiki]

holy fuck. How do people GET this good?

Like seriously. I want to know. I need to know

[kre8havoc]

Haha, thanks man. We worked hard on this. Practice, make sure everyone is thinking about the rhythms the same, practice, have people who all have the same motivation, practice, have fun, and practice.

Oh crap, I forgot to mention practice. This doesn't happen over night my friend ;)

[RajaHibiki]

The Knights are my favorite corps from what I've seen on youtube and a show I got to see in person once. I'd like to audition when I'm confident in my skills,but I'm not this far along yet. Not to mention you guys are way off in Colorado. :(

hahaha, I'm from Mass by the way

[nquadwetrust]

man 4 out of the 5 in that vid are from Texas and I'm included in that as well. . . distance isn't a thing man. If you want to audition don't let anything stand in your way. And if your not confident in your playing . . . how can you judge yourself to the competition? Sometimes you just have to go for it man

[harristhecavaliers]

nice dude!

[mpineda89]

yeah! knights rules! da best!

[nquadwetrust]

My god thats alot of notes!!!!!

[mcktenor13]

haha that was tight. good job guys.

[illBUrFriend]

O yea, did they get first again?

[kre8havoc]

Yeah. We got the same score as the 07 ensemble. 97.50 I think... SCV got a 96.00. Teal sound was signed up to do an ensemble, but in the end didn't end up competing.

[illBUrFriend]

Thanks, I absolutely love BK Basses, they rock!

[illBUrFriend]

Dam, this was tight!

[Buhzie15]

BASS 1 MALLET EYES FTW!!!!!!!!

[nquadwetrust]

I'm new to all this new slang terminology . . . FTW?

[Buhzie15]

for the win!

[nquadwetrust]

Well aight!!! thats just bad ass then lol

[51793promotec]

CRAZY!!!!!

[joker22556]

sick

[senbass2]

Awesome! Some real good notes in there! Deserved the win. OK they missed a couple of splits, but hell, they nailed a lot more than they missed!

[StringsofMartyr]

Haha, I love bass ensembles, and BK always cooks up some good ones.

[bandgeekalways]

Hells yeah! Blue Knights are totally awesome =)

[nquadwetrust]

no sir you keep up the amazing work

its not about us anymore its about the future

[goshenperc1]

Crap, hah. I forgot how much I love bass drums.

[BirthdayQuake]

hmmm... every time I watch this, I say to myself, "self, that was a lot of notes. We sure did do a different brand of I&E."

In response to Arn0ld, we not have played with little rubber balls, But there is NO DENYING that we played with Balls.

[arn0ld]

=P.

[866596]

bk bass is just amazing

[BirthdayQuake]

Im just messin with ya man! I didg it that you like bass drumming. 07 was a very sick year to say the least. Thats part of why I marched in 08.

No hard feelings. ;)

[drumvonkrebs]

-krebs

BK Top 08

[reefedbeats]

you people are my heros lol

lol, im going to eventually be in an amazing bassline like this, no doubts

keep up the amazing work

[rhguidry]

What's up bass!

[DamnSaMoANS]

Nailed your shit and thats why you beat Vanguard.That was some cool shit man.

[nquadwetrust]

Chumps. . . I missed a single. . . and I can't split shit. . .

My antics were over the top eh? Did you miss the bad ass Robot from the bass 3, and bottom? Or maybe the "Big GOTCHA!!!" with the bottom two perhaps. . . anywho I think Scott gots the right idea

[dciplayer05]

eh... a bunch of chumps! you guys suck. to many antics on the top bass drum. c'mon man your not with the line. you cant split shit!

bunch a punk asses!

[kre8havoc]

I am all for constructive criticism, but saying that "we are chumps" not only doesn't say what we did wrong, but also shows your naivety in general. I agree that there were some splits that did not hit, however the material dictates that there will be mistakes, and overall I think we did a good job. In the end we are "chumps that can't split shit" with a metal. Probably more than anything YOU did. Please, master of youtube and all things percussive, teach me, NAY, teach US how to split shit. ass

[BlueTubEDKnight]

hell yeah dude you tell him lol

[nquadwetrust]

anybody not the hand to hand split single. . . via top two. . . any body ?

AC

[BirthdayQuake]

Jeez how man singles is that top bass gonna split?

[eman121bkb085]

5/5

[reefedbeats]

[drumrguy]

Probably the best BK bass ensemble I've seen in a long time, haha.

Great stuff.

[arn0ld]

i think the 07 bass ensemble was cooler. not saying this wasnt good, but the bouncy balls really got me x]. either way, both were excellent 5/5 =D
