Hell ya man...dirty with a capital D!!!!!!!

OMG!! Awesome!!!

@TheDragonmaster18 I'll agree that SOME can but most can't. If a corps had a run like this, they would probably schedule extra practice because it is nowhere near DCI standards.

@woodyman90 Oh, well, you hit them and they sound like ass and most people don't use them (probably because they sound like ass) so until it is identified that there are toms, everyone just assumes that the bassline is sounding like ass. It's sort of a practical joke for band directors that don't like percussion.

phew! WHAT A WOW!

@woodyman90 they add effects. HBCU drumlines have marched them way before quads and quints were invented. even DCI use to march them back when they only did traditional style of marching which is the high step marching

@woodyman90 Single tenor drums are toms. They are just deeper snares for added dimension and sound texture. I played one freshman year during football season. When we play we can generally improv what we want as long as it sounded good.

@animelover3400 dude this style of drumming has been around much longer than themovie drumline. where do you think they got the idea. the movie was about HBCU drumlines not DCI drumlines which are by far not as entertaining to watch. all they do is stand there yealling dut and playing rudiments at 220bpm. and if a drummer chooses to do showstyle lt them. not every drummer has to do DCI style. and everyone in HBCU drumlines can chop just as well as someone in DCI.

@woodyman90 they add effect. single tenors have actually been around longer than multi toms. in fact when DCI first came out in the 70's majority of the drum corps useed thesingle toms. also before HBCU drumlines picked up multi toms they used the single toms instead. also alot of HBCU drum cadences are driven buy the single tenor drum. there are only two drumlines i know of that use only snare, bass, and single tenor. those drumlines wpuld be tennessee state and southern university

@dbabycool41291 dude just because as a group they play well doesnt mean that each individual person is bad. this school combines both show and corps drumming but they focus more on show for the audience. you do realize that this is from 2006 though right? check out the 2010 line. college drumlines were made to be entertaining not just stand there and play rudiments
