This the LD Bell HS band performing as a video reference.

[llaxof9991111]

There is absolutely nothing impressive about this video.

[sixty9fordkiller]

the cadence doesnt do much for me but this line is freakin ridiculous. They sound outstanding. Very impressive for a high school line

[ZekePotter]

i have the music for this on my computer, does anyone want me to email it to them?

[DrumImprov666]

@ZekePotter that would probably be very helpful for next years marching season. if you could it would really help.

[ZekePotter]

i have one copy of the music, i will try to scan it into the computer one of these days

[AustinoPee12]

Anyone have the music?

[Th4Unseen]

why are all the girls on cymbals

[BNAisIn10se]

There are the "cymbal chicks"

[Mike0isabigdeal]

[Tenorsarefun]

no offense, but this isn't that amazing (and i'm assuming these kids are in highschool)... they call this an "honor" drumline? not very complex rythms or playing. (btw, i did'nt hear one flam! not one!) Basicly just playing a bunch of sixtenth notes, diddles, and backsticks.. it is clean though, and i will give them that.... pretty decent i guess

This is just a video L.D. Bell High School's drumline playing the cadence as a demo for Honor Band of America. Mr. Pollard wrote the cadence for the Honor Band of America to use in the Rose Bowl Parade back in 2004. They only spent a few days rehearsing the cadence. It was never meant to be a "performance video", or even intended for public viewing.

[Tenorsarefun]

Fair enough.

[pker797]

"honor" band comes from them at BOA grand nationals...

if you dont know about L.D. Bell then gtfo.

[dfife1]

I shot and edited the original video. I know exactly why it was made.

John Pollard (kneeling in front) wrote the cadence for the BOA Honor Band of America to use in the Rose Bowl Parade in 2004. The video was created as a demo of the cadence for the HBOA kids to watch before they got to Pasadena for the Rose Bowl parade rehearsals.

flams scare people away these days....

[thatsrilankanguy]

where can i find the sheet music to this?

[MarchingxSnare]

I cant believe I spent like 4 days writing this out by ear when the sheet music is on the net. But I guess it wouldnt of helped for the basses since we have 4 not 6.

[godlikealchemist]

do u have the sheet music? cuz i would really like to have it

[bingcrosby1903]

Awesome line.

[Glide825]

Crazy. Someone sent me this link (this is Pollard). This is the '04 line. I wrote Torque for the BOA Rose Parade band and sent the members links to these vids so they could watch their section and learn fassst. The PDF music is at ldbellband org slash torque. Enjoy - thanks for the comments. Go LD Bell.

[Glide825]

Update: Vids and PDF moved to box5 org slash torque

[dontcommentme]

Hey Nick, can you tell me the name of that site the is sheet music on. Would really appreciate it.

[funkmasta772]

That's the most unfunky cadence I think I've ever heard. Clean, but completely lifeless!

[StringsofMartyr]

I don't really like this cadence, but I have to say that the line played it pretty damned well.

[dondidamonster111]

really really really really nice bass split wish my bass can do that

[OutletEntertainment]

Nice. I saw your show at Grand Nats. Something about a beautiful mind right? It was my favorite show there. You guys should've beat out broken arrow. I'm from Centerville btw.

[Asuquints]

Nice job guys.... and gals.

[Fundamenta]

That was an amazingly clean cadence by the way, are there six different sized bass drums i've only seen 5 in a marching band

[revliscrazy]

Kick-ass cadence. I really like the cymbal solo at the end. I thought that was cool and different for a high school line.

[CypressTrumpet]

is it just me or is the whole cymbla line just cymbals. O.o and i see 2 more girls on bass...

nice cadence. check mine out. xD

[Aeruchin]

"is the whole cymbla line just cymbals"

Well, most cymbal lines ARE just cymbals...

But yeah, they're all girls.

[bobvanderhoek]

check ou the hertes in the snareline.. sounds nice btw

[bobvanderhoek]

check out the hertes guys...  got a realy nice thing goingon here

[heffer59166]

now that is drummin

[anthonyanthony12345]

pretty sick guys. ur rolls were pretty clean and you were together. I thot the visuals were great too thanks for posting!

[RickDawg527]

is this a high school? Its ok, pretty boring though. not very demanding....

[mikaari]

very nicely done, superdude1112 is right, third bass drum needs to open it up. very clean, south texas = HELL YEAH

[superdude1112]

The only problem I saw was that the third base drum needs to open up their sextuplet run part.

[agarrett321]

cool guys...um yeah the 6 basses is different, but whatever. That's the type of cadence the crowds will like man, slow, groovy, and full of visuals...cool stuff.

[hamocydal1]

very nice guyz..

great job..

i would love to see how u march tho..

[kietey14]

yea this was pretty damned good and clean, those rolls were nice. But the only part I could see where cleaning was that necesarry would be the first part into triplets with the backsticking, it keeps comming out fuzzy on all 3 recordings. Otherwise good.

[Koreanfosho]

wow 6 basses havnt seen that in a while very nice :}

[gemini1764]

last time they had 6 basses was my senior year

[itstevita]

That was a sweet cadence!!! Did Nick Write that or Pollard? keep it up.

[Gaim]

ok this was amazing
