2006 UCLA Drumline

[antiherocs24]

It hurts for me to admit this, but UCLA's Drumline is in fact better than USC's Drumline. The line as a whole is a lot cleaner. You can hear it in the snares if you compare the two lines. UCLA pis able to play a lot tighter and cleaner.

I am saying that it hurts to admit it because I am and always will be a USC fan. :)

[xiphas7]

My high school plays this cadence, only there's more bass drums involved, and it sounds really epic.

@dfisk79

I couldn't find a single spot that sounded particularly unclean... don't know what you're talking about.

[dfisk79]

Uh....most of the rolls and big rim shots were all schlocky. If you can't hear it, then you don't know what to listen for.

[ninjkabat]

@dfisk79 A) this isn't a corp. B) Let's see how your chops feel after 10 hours of playing. C) There are few college lines that can boast even this level of cleanliness.

[dfisk79]

@ninjkabat

I seriously doubt it was 10 hours straight of playing. I've done full days of rudimental stuff. Once you've built up your chops, it's no big deal. Also, I've heard lots of college lines that sound better. University of Illinois, North Texas, Michigan State...hell, even Eastern Illinois is as good if not better. Like I said, if you can't hear the schlocki-ness, then you don't know how to listen.

[SoaringDragon3]

@kaikaichen agreed

[Doommaster1994]

Our drumline plays this same song.

[goldeneye234960]

A lot of drumlines play this same song. Don't be too surprised.

[Doommaster1994]

Yeah I can see why lol

[Jollisen456]

i say tht ucla has a betr cadence than usc no offense!

[KBoe4]

USC's football team may be dominating yours, but UCLA's drumline is dominating USC's....

[derbydrumma]

hahaha cmon man..

[KBoe4]

What? It's true...

[omg101man]

@KBoe4 your jealous because USC is #1 in the country for marching band and drumline

[KBoe4]

@omg101man You, sir, don't have any idea what you're saying.

[masterownedu]

@omg101man Ucla's drumline is way better then Usc..

[horselove2468]

ah-mazing job! i love how our camera was aattached to your drum

[ryan9312]

i luv this song! im learning this for highschool drumline. so fun!

[gannagorf]

I like the UCLA cadence better, even being a USC fan. Too bad they don't do the little stick charades their rivals do.

[Tedtastic7]

ew. usc ftw

[KBoe4]

wow...you're dumb.

:)

[HamHamT]

thats felix

[iRudiment]

cool

[someguyyoudontknow]

lol, my drumline did this cadence this year. cept the basses changed it a bit.

[rgutierre]

usc can suck ma nuts!!

[Dewilicious]

I freaking love this cadence, we play it but not nearly as clean. This is one of my top favorite cadences, up next to ditty and double beat.

[Poasted]

Ditty and Double Beat are warmups. lol

[Kaman44]

lol. arent u cool.

[SDHSdrummer]

i think usc cadences are better, i know all of both ucla and usc (i think) on tenors and some on snare

but thats just be cause im a drum nerd and i learn watever music i can get :)

[Drummerguy123]

There's no way in hell USC's drumline is better than this. I'm not even a fan of UCLA (I'm on the University of Arizona snare line) and I know this.

I'd like to meet these guys. They play well.

Also, this video has an awesome camera angle.

[SDHSdrummer]

idk about the drumline. but i personally like usc's music a bit more both are great though

[Drummerguy123]

But honestly, the USC band is the laughing stock of college marching bands. When I talked to some of the guys on the BYU drumline at the Las Vegas bowl, they knew exactly what was up with USC...

[SDHSdrummer]

isn't Stanford the laughing stock of college marching bands? i can imagine anyone being worse.

[Drummerguy123]

Even if they are worse, they certainly don't have the reputation USC does.

[asielen]

Different styles. UCLA = DCI, USC = Show. They do different things and they each do their own thing well.

[burkov]

usc is better

[raiderznation32]

USC's drumline is way better

[GetTiefBlauAndDie]

$C's cadences are boring and predictable.

[Drummerguy123]

and dirty.

[qtip262]

hell yea

[turtles79]

my high school played this cadence

[DarkSharingan93]

sweet snare drums

[drummerkidd12]

those snare r krisp

[drumr156]

Nice snares!

[Rimbozendi]

i would just like to apologize for my schools butchery of this cadence

[dahkillahmac]

lol

[treefalse]

I'd love a higher quality video of the whole line playing that so that the snares don't drown out everything.

[osborneddotcom]

wtf, wheres the tenors?

[treefalse]

really quiet...

[Drumerboy1694]

Snares are tuned amazingly

[Georgiapeach770]

wow my drumline got this back in the summer and our tempo doesn't even come close to ucla's...amazing but i think we do pretty good for a high school drumline.

[treefalse]

Haha, man. My drumline got this music to learn yesterday. Followed along in my music and I ended 8 measures late. =D

[someguyyoudontknow]

haha, my drumline got this to learn....yesterday.

[mrquick07]

Dang that freaking swee. My drumline@ HINDS Community College play the same cadence but UCLA play it 10x faster than we do

[duwendekid289]

frekin clean! makes my ears feel good :D

[bacondgp]

our college drumline plays this cadence too.....we changed a few things, but it's still a tight cadence...the bass drum part is killing

[brandinowtf]

so does our highschool, we just added some stuff from our old cadence for parts where theres just tenor. yeah the bass is pretty beast.

[ballaz100]

not bad, simple rolls and eight notes, if started take it slow

[paulizzofoshizzle]

im just starting to get into this marching band drum line kinda stuff, can anyone tell me what kind of drums they use?

[ninjkabat]

At the time of this video, I think the ucla line was using really crappy premier drums. But this year, they got a whole new line of yamahas. I know their snares are sfz's this year.

[FUNKBLASTER69]

they came to my field tournament and they were amazing

[lilwolfboi]

hrm, was it Los Altos Field Tourny? jw

[avioias]

they're right hand heavy.

[Brassman27]

your face is right hand heavy

[chief65]

lol

[theguy1991]

my drumline is also playing this.

[AVnintendo]

I can't hear the basses, but that's a damn clean snare line. And I play tenors and have played bass

[Kazekage213]

weak

[quadboi1974]

This is the definition of clean (snares)...15 sound like 1. U cant deny them that y'all

[casino11]

ucla band is ass

[avioias]

nice

[mjmbruin]

i love this videos

usc trojans suck

go bruins

[snarebassplaya]

Clean...for a collage line, well for at least what i could hear!

[gbpdrum45]

we play this cadence!!!! cant hear the bass drums too well...

[andy58815]

i cant hear the bass drums
