I will never grow tired of watching/listening to this show. This, in my opinion, is where DCI peaked. The mellophone line was absolutely spectacular this year, and it’s a shame I never got to see it live.

During their encore they had every reason to talk They won the pressure was off and it was a release of emotion.

Bro, at the Middle Tennessee show that year, we were sitting in the upper bowl in the center, really good seats. And as you guys were coming onto the field preparing, none other than Matt Harloff sat in the row in front of us. He is the easiest to distinguish person ever, so It was very clearly him. By the end of the show, he seemed very intimidated by you guys. I'll always remember the look on his face at the very end.

I love the amount of inside jokes that happen on the field. Diet doctor Kelp killed me.

The SpongeBob reference at 6:09 though 😂 "Diet Dr. Kelp! Diet Dr. Kelp!"

Bass line at the end is SICK!!! Awww man, yessss

When I joined marching band as a mellophone this year I had a sophomore send me a little of the music that someone tried to transcribe for mellophone for me to learn and I tried l and gave up, I never gave it much thought until I got curious and looked at the show. Stunning. Needless to say I was amazed at how utterly awesome this work of art is. It also has some of the best mellophone music I’ve seen. It made me start learning a bit again and I think this may be may favorite marching band/dci show I’ve seen. This was one of the most deserved dci championship victories I’ve seen. Beautiful.

I love how they just drop the greatest show ever

goosebumps was one BIG family ....... BIG THUMBS UP

I just realized this was on my birthday last year while I was at band camp🌟 Shout out from a fellow mello player 🐣

aeysace I break it down slowly. So I’ll chunk each quarter notes length of music and connect them as I go. I’ll start slow, and speed up the tempo after I get whatever I have down 5-10 times in a row depending on how hard the lick is. If I get 4 in a row and the 5th is bad, I’ll restart. Basically, lots of reps helped my dexterity. Also, we break it down a lot during pretour so that helps too

You can hear the snare player saying "Stop rushing" at the beginning

i can tell you play second. me too. you sound great.

Quick question: What's the use of a BERP during performance? Thx for anyone who knows

@mattbowman33

4 жыл бұрын

Elliot Woo no use, it’s just for ease of not having to take it off every performance and put it back on after. Saves time. Some say it can affect the pitch a little but we did experiments with it in 2019 and it didn’t seem to make a difference

ok WTF I counted like 4 other people doing head cams in one frame, like holy shit thats a lot.

Id like to see bass drum 5's view experience says its pretty good

Amazing. What kind of mouthpiece do you use? And what is that black thing attached near the mouthpiece?

@mattbowman33

5 жыл бұрын

SCV uses Hammond mouthpieces and the mellos use the 6MP version specifically. And that black thing is a berp. We take our mouthpiece and stick it in that to buzz the passage that they ask us to buzz.

1:39 "look at the flick of that wrist"

Chris K. That’s a BERP. It’s whenever we want to do a rep on mouthpiece only or whenever we want to buzz a part of the show. The BERP allows us to keep our instruments up so we buzz with correct posture and horn carriage
