Hopefully everyone will also check out our videos in the Zildjian Learning Zone channel as well! We just posted an awesome final production run from the Bluecoats front ensemble here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ho57m7NyksetpJs.html

If there was ever a line that won drums without winning drums, it was this one.

Bluecoats 2008 is probably the best example of this.

These guys had the biggest DCI lot crowd I’ve ever seen. It felt like being in a WGI lot with how many people there were, and how close everyone was. Kudos to the line for playing well in the lot under the increased scrutiny.

Chillest center snare

If you were there the crowd was mental, literally less then a foot from the quads is how close we were and how high energy that lot was

every clip I see of this line makes me cry. haters will point out a little dirt but their swag and the BOOK was undeniable.

Saw these guys live in Broken Arrow. Ice cold vibes the whole time and I fell in love with the book. Hoping for a Sanford next year, they deserve that and more with how far they've come. Also, love the vibe out by center snare at 3:36 lol. Reminds me of the days.

Timestamps including tap-offs: 0:04 - Legatos 1:24 - Spanks 4:48 - Red's Rhumba Redux

It’s like they’re all competing to be the chilliest drumline ever. And they’re winning.

the sound quality of these drums, the technical precision of the drummers, and the complexity of the drum exercises and show tunes is just incredibly, Wicked Awesome!!! Top Notch all the way!! Looking forward to an even better season next year, 2023. ✌😁

These kids are amazing….thank you! Best of luck!

One of the best lines ever! I didnt get to check if they won drums but by the comments sounds like SCV did it again. Kudos to them but this line was in your face 5 seconds into the show with high quality, tasty A$$ Beats!! I wish i was able to see them live cuz i missed one the best ever!! Congrats on the Awesome season Boston!!!!

@@buckdacious my top two were definitely Coats and Boston. Bloo only took it by .016666 which is crazy. But even from the nosebleeds where I was sitting, they were undeniable. All the finalist percussion groups were phenomenal this year. I’m also a little biased because I marched with someone on Coats’ snareline. But man the growth they had in the final three days was something else.

One of the hypest lots I've ever been to. The crowd was huge.

In love with their tenor line, so crisp

Lets gooooo, excited for pt 2

Amazing skills! Thanks for sharing with us!

The snare’s technique is my favorites part. Very stationary forearms. All wrist power. Reminds me of early 00 cavies.

CRAZY good!

that one tenor player looks like hes on the verge of tears

I hope this drumline stays together for a few more years... even though some will age out... If I was still eligible to march in DCI, I would want to be in a drumline like that one....✌️🥁

I heard a dci judges tape from ‘06 Phantom in which the judge said something like that roll was a little off, but WHO CARES you’re so good. That’s all I can think about with this line. They were the best and the judges not being on the field were the reason they didn’t win. Many lines were good this year, but no line was better than this one. Period.

looks fun

_Ah yes!_ Nice to see playing-through-the-head resurrected.

sickest bassline ever!

4:33 no full auto in the building!!!

3:16 Got me grooving

If my watch was in such good time, I would not be late to my drum lessons.

1:55 is the only line that cannot ever be beaten, the tan line in the background. YIKES.

3:35, Smooth like butter. 👍

Can somebody tell me what happened with Crusaders? Years ago, no one ever batted an eye, at least in terms of percussion finalists, it was always the usual suspects: BD, Bluecoats, SCV, Cavs, Cadets... Am I missing something about a new Crusaders age? Did they get a new caption head or something 🤔??

I feel bad for anyone who hasn’t experienced Spanks in the lot.

We hear you. It's always awkward to walk in front of everyone, but there are a LOT of individuals filming in the lot for themselves or their own channel. Ultimately, the companies pay thousands of dollars in free product, plus countless hours of support for the groups. If we didn't have this opportunity to produce high quality videos for marketing the brand, we probably would be asked to scale back our support. Hopefully everyone enjoys the benefit of having this level of video production and can excuse us for the intrusion!

My lord why is one of the tenors so damn tall compared to everyone else

@g.hon.4645

Жыл бұрын

WHY???Let me elaborate. In my early career I got bounced out of the whole drum line bcs I was head & shoulders taller than what was the norm in those days. It made no sense. I aced all my performance tests. I demonstrated how fast I was @ learning new material. I demonstrated mastery of all the classic drum solos all the newbies were taught. I kept up w/everybody - including my instructor - on everything we did, including the long roll. I had no trouble w/any of the rudiments. But they yanked me out of the drum line & tossed me into the horn line & even my drum.instructor was mystified. She had already advanced the idea of breaking me in on rudimental. But they had this idea of this cookie cutter picture of this all-the-same drum line looking like a cute little machine & I was out. Nearly a month later., our director felt so bad for me that one practice during break he called me aside & gave me my own practice pad & snare & tenor sticks to keep. It was the only time I felt like anyone had noticed. But I was still out.
