This is and DCI program that doesn’t have an age limit called DCA.

the bars sound dead during the blue knights cam because those are the rehearsal bars, and they switch them out for shows. Usually rehearsal bars are the show bars from 1-3ish years ago. and so when the rehearsal bars have gotten too messed up they are just thrown out or re purposed.

I'd just like to mention that in the Blue Knights show, no suspended cymbal rolls were used (by keyboard players.) They tried to just use amazing writing for the keyboard parts.

BRO HE SHOULD

The guys walking around the field are on-field judges, they walk around and make comments into tape recorders, and after the competition, the bands listen to what the judges in the stands and on the field had to say.

we need more DCI reaction videos!!! Love it!!

I saw Wrong Side of the Tracks live and it was CRAZY

I think another thing that makes the blue knights show interesting is there was no suspended cymbals- it was replaced with alternate instrumentation.

Adam, could you possible review some marching mallets and how the differ from concert mallets. Thank you!

I hope you don't stop posting videos on KZread any time soon. You're basically one of the only marimba player on youtube that posts frequently. And all your videos are incredibly helpful and entertaining. You've actually encouraged me to get my own marimba one day.

When dci finals comes around this year, you definitely need to fly out and watch. There’s no other words to describe it but being blown away. Pun intended

The guy "ref" as you called him is a field judge. I think you would really enjoy going to Indianapolis for DCI finals. You can see the pits in the lot, see their rehearsal techniques. All of the extra movements and such as rehearsed for hours and hours making them just part of the performance.

Waiting for your next The Studio marching videos!! Welcome to the DCI world yayy. For me, I like the closeness between classical music (especially orchestra+concerto ones) and DCI music. Many DCI corps use classical repertoires in their show (watch SCV 2015 [bach's invention], 2016 [vivaldi]; carolina crown 2008 [literally a classical medley], 2011 [really... rachmaninoff + queen is wow], 2012 [copland], 2015 [beethoven+verdi+"albinoni"], and many MORE from other corps too) Btw... you should see Cadets 2011 (Between Angels and Demons). There's no marimba cam for that show (it was still 2011), but I'm sure you'll like it :) The drill design and music is awesome

The scissors...heh. In the past Santa Clara Vanguard played garden weasels a a pit sound effect.

I know you usually are focused on watching the front ensemble but you really should watch Carolina Crowns brass section. You haven’t heard a brass flex until you listen to them.

You should do the 2019 blue devils

Shelby's Video is direct evidence that pit still has a stupid amount of choreo, even though the instruments can't be moved very easily

If you like blue knights you should check out Rise Percussion

So yeah. You need to check out their 2014 show Immortal.

Davin is also 16 :)

14:00 a referee or something. . . . lol maybe a judge :P

Hey try watching a indoor or dci snare cam

The thought of having to push that onto grass makes my back hurt 😢

Blue knights played the tunes from cadets 2005? Lol

You gotta watch SCV 2018 Babylon. I don’t know if it’s still on KZread however I do have a 60 FPS mp4 vid I could send if you want

Hi do you know mr gip chan?? Just asking😅

Did you see the part where the marimbas looked at the drum major? Neither did they

Do you have perfect pitch??!

around 14 minutes in, the guy behind the player, is a Judge, Percussionists get an on field judge, who must be athletic. Because they have to follow along and not get absolutely demolished following around the percussion section during pieces to judge stylings, techniques and things xD
