  • I'm failing to see the fail in this. I just see 4 high school students trying to play the Banner without a drum major.

  • Did they start playing a month ago? I didn't think high school kids could sound that bad

  • Thumbs up if 3 seconds after the video started you put your hand on your chest.

  • ahhhhh i see it now lol, well nether the less i believe they did a pretty good job though

  • Who died ?

  • Not bad at all for high school students. Definitely not a "fail".

  • jerk...

  • Just a small mistake. We're all human and we make mistakes. This video was completely pointless. So basically, the only fail I see is the video. And as for the National Anthem, people are gonna mess up on it no matter how important it is or how "perfect" people think it should be, so big fucking whoop. :/

  • it was somewhere at :24 but it's not that big of a deal to most people

  • im sorry but that really was a fail.... they were mostly either rushing or dragging the tempo or their intonation was just horrible....

    seems like they didn't spend much time practicing that song at all..... :/

  • it was decent, i can see that it wasnt the best, but thats a hard peice to play! especialy with probably 500+ people all listening and looking at you.

  • I thought they were good! The Star Spangled Banner is about the most difficult piece of music ever and they did a good job.

  • all the dislikes are people that aren't real musicians and can't tell where the mistakes are... tuning was really bad, missed notes, a section was missing, and rhythm's were really bad. 

  • Wow, how many of you don't know the national anthem. They missed an entire verse of the piece.

  • This video was a fail. Not the Trumpets

  • you should change the tile of the song to get more likes

  • It just needs to be polished.

    

  • lol he's wearing a burger king hat

  • that was horrendous... shame on their band director for letting a group that sounded like that play the national anthem.

  • LOOK AT THE BURGER KING HAT ON THE RIGHT......... :/

  • This was really pretty good. One person flubbed, so what, and they got it back together. Not easy doing a brass quartet with no percussion or piano. BRAVO trumpets.

  • @CaptainQueue they skipped a verse.

  • That sounded horrible

  • The only fail is the headgear that two of them chose to wear. Either wear your official uniform hat or nothing at all if playing the anthem.

  • Dear Uploader,

    Prepared to get flamed by musicians and people that know what's actually going on.

    Sincerely,

    A trumpet player who is better than any trumpet player who reads this ;)

  • @iReDeMpTi0n May I see a video of you playing? :P

  • @iReDeMpTi0n well since you are better than any of us, explain to me how the lack of any musicality is ok? i mean im sure you're the one who marched 4 years DCI and 5 years at Ohio State with a degree in music. but tell us. please!

  • hey guess what? the only fail I see here is the up-loader cause that wasn't bad. a few wrong notes here and there but all in all, they did well doing a QUARTET piece.

  • Pretty sure the fail is about how bad that sounded

  • Wasn't the fail when they didn't take the repeat?

  • where was the fail

  • for everybody who doesn't see a "fail" 2 of those trumpet players are wearing hats during the national anthem. i dunno about you guys, but that is enough of a "fail" to me

  • @jboy1ish I concur

  • is that guy wearing a Burger King hat?

  • This video is pointless, they are good

    enough

  • P.R.A.C>T.I.C.E.

    

  • The girl sounded the best although all of you need practice.....

  • Practice..all of you

  • The fail where one of them failed to take it up at 0:38. Sounds like a baby fart. The rest is just very, very, very bad.

  • i actually really love that arrangement.

  • This is not a fail,This video is a Fail.....

  • ANYBODY NOTICE THE GUY WITH THE RANDOM BLUE HAT?

  • @fidfjbioejmnbhiowr And that was a girl.

  • @magnusnajbjerg O.o

    

  • that was not a fail that's how it's played

  • @tdogusa99 Really?

  • How was this a fail or poorly played?

  • It's not a fail! It's just poorly played!

  • so the whole thing was a fail right? cuz the squeal wasnt the only poorly played part.

  • C'mon pick up your game I leard how to play this I sixth grade lol

  • 0:25 made the terrorist win

  • I can understand not being able to play up to the level of great entertainment, but the baseball cap and the Burger King hat are the things that make this a fail lol come on it's our National Anthem for crying out loud

  • is it the liddo squeel? :O and yeah i think the uploader is stupid my friends have bin in band for years and well there is still room for perfection not like this art is easy to master -.- even what i play can get difficult so wth? -.-i only watched this cuz i thought it was my skool x3

  • someone's jealous.. haha

  • True, it wasn't that good, but it wasn't bad enough to deserve a fail video.

  • @njalanis is this at high school south?

  • No Fail.... you do it then haters! They're kids! Give them a break!

  • what the hell? where the heck was there a "fail"?

  • @EduardoTheHater the fail was the woman going for the high note.

  • @EduardoTheHater The fail is the far right trumpeter's golden crown.

  • @EduardoTheHater They messed up the tempo at 0:24 and were all playing at different times.

  • @EduardoTheHater ,

    Dude, if you cannot here the fail @ 0:24 you are TONE DEAF

  • R.I.P miles davis gone but not forgotten.

  • true dat iidoworkx true dat

    

  • A couple flubbed notes, but...I see so "fail."

  • That guy's Burger King crown really made the performance shine through just brilliantly.

    I must've missed the fail. I thought the whole performance was beautiful.

  • Where were the mistakes??

    

  • youre an asshole.

  • @Wordup0616 Thank you

  • Whats so bad about this??? a bit of mistakes through out the performance, but it wasn't that bad, it was pretty good since they didn't have any sheet music

  • Absolutely not at Fail. Some mistakes in the inner harmony - most likely they forgot their part there. And I hope the video started after the music started because there were 8 measures missing from the video. And I am a high school trumpet instructor.

  • @wvwoodman Considering this is a trumpet quartet, I would expect it to best 4 the school has to offer. My high school band wouldn't have been caught DEAD with a performance like this.

  • the person who uploaded this is suffering from a LIFE FAIL

  • they dyd mess up couple of times but not a fail

  • Besides intonation it's really not that much of a fail...

  • for high school they're not bad...

  • isnt it strange that the comments have more likes than the video?

  • That's not a fail. Bet you cant even play an instrument

  • I don't get it! I just started learning trumpet to supplement my other instrument-drums, and I would be absolutely ecstatic and flipping out if I could play like that right now! Actually I'm a bit envious of these kids! I didn't see any "fail" here---I'd give my right leg to play like them as an early beginner teaching himself (no big loss I'm a paraplegic due to MS anyway LOL!), But seriously, these kids did great and sounded fine! Maybe they can show me how to play this good!!! Kudos kids!

  • that was slighty worse than ok but it wasnt a fail. i consider it a fail if they all got completely lost or something

  • I dont understand how that was a "fail" they played well beside being slightly out of tune they were good.

  • Only problem I have is the guy wearing a hat and the guy wearing a crown during the national anthem.

  • Compared to some of the idiots who think they can SING the National Anthem, these kids did just fine!

  • ehhh.......one of them farted through their turmpet

  • HAHAHAHAHA EPIC FAIL!

    these guys are useless, especially the low trumpet!

    crawl back into your caves, losers

  • As a professional musician and a teacher, I'd hardly call this a "fail." They're students, for crying out loud, all things told, they actually did a pretty fair job. 

  • hey guess what at least they kept going and didnt give up. Those are some hard notes to reach!

  • do they play this at the special olympics?

  • uploader needs to figure out how hard it is to play instruments. FUCK TO THE YOU MAN.

  • Methinks original uploader needs to acquire a taste for free-form jazz.

  • they played fine... abit out of tune but no biggie.

  • I'm a trumpet player and all I can say is its really hard to play high notes for a long time

  • Dude all i see is 4 awesome people playing an awesome song by memory and doing it pretty good considering they are high school students

  • so where exactly was the fail.

  • it really waznt that bad :\ ive hears some pretty bad trumpets and the only problem with these guys was they werent really blending well together

  • just so u guys know, the fail is that its not very together at 00:22 it have been much worse of a fail but if thats really without practice thats not that bad

  • where is the fail

  • I*

  • Just an FYI, it was senior night, and all the seniors in band get a gold crown. And I happen to be very good friends with at least one of these people. As Ii was typing this, he showed at my house. Irony. He informed me that they played this without practicing with eachother.

  • @drummernamedfitz How much do YOU wanna bet that no one cares about YOUR opinion when it takes you 3 weeks to come up with a 3rd grade come back. I hope your proud kid, did you put it on your refrigerator so you mom can see? Quit talking shit kid & pick up a trumpet then we'll see.

  • How is that a fail?

  • The only "fail" in this video was that idiot that screamed like a... constipated banshee? at 0:38.

  • Wait a minute... is that Del Oro?

    LEIKOMGWTF

  • the only good thing about band was the horny chicks, missing some schooldays because of some bullshit band competition, and getting in free to football games.

  • On the right: Ding, fries are done! Ding, fries are done!

  • Just so people know...they arent all play the trumpet parts of the song. Far left kid is doing the baritone part and the others are probably playing dissent other parts

  • i love his burger king hat <3

  • I think the issue the uploader had was the mixed rhythms. And, those are supposed to be there.

  • someone forgot thier sharps

  • its actually not that bad... some cool harmonies i think. i don't think the person who uploaded this video understands what a harmony is tho

  • oops

    

  • Wow, look at that fail...

  • I think the fail is the anthem!

  • The burger king is hat is worn by our seniors for the last home game :)

  • Whenever our marching band does this the entire group plays :3 not just four trumpets

  • dont talk about oconner that way

  • BURGER KING HAT!!!!!

  • Hmmm, a bad arrangement played badly...

  • i really don't get how this is a fail. what, do you expect all of them to play the same note? sure, there were a couple of measures that were a bit...eh, but overall it was pretty good.

    (but yeah, wearing hats while you're performing the national anthem (besides shakos) is disrespectful.

  • Thats not really a fail man. I give it to em.

  • you suck

  • So I play trumpet and they had good tone its just the second part was jacked up! My band director actually almost made us play the same version

  • What's with the Burger King Crown?

  • How Much Do You Wanna Bet The Guy WHo Uploaded This Cant Even Play An Instrument?

  • @iiDoWorkx How much do YOU want to bet that it is, or is not, necessary to capitalize the first letter of every word in a sentence?

  • @iiDoWorkx the 1 down is the guy

  • @iiDoWorkx that's like saying that the people who filmed planes crashing into WT2 aren't even terrorists.

  • @redneckblacklabel Bro, you are so stupid. You're remarks arn't even related what so ever with what im talking about. Just please be quiet before you make yourself look even stupider than you already have.

  • @iiDoWorkx thank you.

  • I think it's a fail , due to them playing the national athem with two players who have hats on.

    Which is disrespectful.

  • @kidsteensworld given the current state of events I think a goofy hat is appropriate for the national anthem.

  • This sounds like any other high school

  • I Would Like To See You Try!

  • This is a lot better than I expected. yeah, there are a few measures, but as a quartet their intonation was niiiice

  • There's no fail just the person that made the video is one

  • well then u play ? since ur so specific about it -.- .

  • only fail I see is the BK hat.

  • I've heard worse....much much worse. Bad enough that if they hadn't announced it, I would have no clue what it was supposed to be.

  • Haha I get it! It's a fail because that one fat kid has a stupid crown on! Oh Youtube, why are you so dang funny?!

  • Omg, that's my high school! xD

  • yu have to be totally high and watch this again.

  • That was a pretty decent performance !

  • how was that a fail? ...

  • Video title fail.

  • Zakk Wylde could play better.

  • That wasn't that bad.

  • @njalanis Your name for the video Just..............FAIL.

  • ummm. FAIL!!!!!!!!!

  • I'm a band director and I don't see the fail there dude.

  • @lyrralt first of all it sounds like 6thgrade band almost (out of tone) and if your a band director i mean im in 8th grade and i can hear how bad it sounds because my true band director thinks nearly everything sucks but what is played in tune and withall the correct articulations and dynamics and until u have played it intune these guys are terrible and plus be respectful i mean this is the national anthem they need to stop wearing random hats ..... and that sir is y this is a fail

  • @lyrralt They screwed up the song. A measure or 2 was clipped off. Listen to this and the actual song. You will tell then.

  • where is the fail?

  • WANT TO HEAR GREAT! Listen to this youtube orchestra.

    TYPE ORCHESTRA FAIL AND CLICK THE FIRST VIDEO

    let me know

  • I'm sure the fail part the OP is referring to is that little squeak you hear at :38. That wasn't the camera man farting, that was one of them trying to hit the last note in that phrase an octave higher and totally missing it.

  • lol guy on the right is where'in a BK crown XD

  • Why does that mon have a burger king crown, did he he just get a special meal.

  • This is not that bad.

  • Is that kid wearing a burger king crown?

  • My friend can play better than this. And we're only in 7th -_-

  • @DeathWish6911

    Why dont you show the internet.

    Thats right I didnt thkn so.

  • @pianoguitarlvr I'll get a video of him up asap.

    *think.

    It's not that bad. They could have done better yes. But the guy wearing the hat is disrespectful,

  • @DeathWish6911

    I'm not hatin. Just sayin!

  • @pianoguitarlvr I know! But a highschooler compared to a 7th grader xD He's pretty damn good. He's the only one who gets first parts for trumpet.

  • Do you know how many trumpet players it takes to change a light bulb? Five. One to change the light bulb and four to explain how they could have done it better.

  • Okay, not the best, but certainly not incredibly failtastic.

  • How bout they take their god damned hats off. 

  • ouch...intonation please!

  • Whats so fail about this? They can play and nothing bad happened. A single mistake isn't counted as a fail and a bit insulting considering they sound better than most trumpet players. You know how hard it is to play clear sound on a trumpet???

  • ...that was pretty good. the trumpet ain't easy to play, ya know

  • hi im better then u hahahaha jk jk i respect all trumpet players im a trumpet player i hate to be mean but our trumpet section could play a little better then that last year we only had 3 trumpet playas including me and every time we go to the football game performances the band ask us how many trumpet players do u have? we have three. there reaction: omg u guys sound like 15 trumpet players good job! now this year we have 7

  • this is gud if ya dont knw some of them are playing lower notes cause they are ment too

  • realmente me dan cosa xD
