THE SCOUTS.... Simply the best!

RIP Madison Scouts 🙁

That whole 98’ show is a choice moment

Awesome video of The Scouts finest moments!! Thank you for uploading!! Please feel free to check out my drum corps playlists.. Once you have drum corps in your blood it stays there forever!!

2018, sad that these past few years, Scouts have been having a hard time making the top 12 ! As well as the Troopers. Kenosha Kingsmen & Mariners. GO ARMY NRA USA

Electronics, PA systems and huge props on the field need to go. This is how you do Drum Corps.

Will DCI ever get back to the basic of the music we heard in the 90s we didn't have amplifiers that drowned out the sound of the horn's

And now they’re gone. 😢💔

Wheres 1989

CHOICE 👌

90's scouts >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 90's cadets

I wish I could explain what is was like to march in 95 and see the scouts and those shows. Really was a special year for DCI. Anyone wonder where Crown came from? Check their Stormworks show in 95.

effing gay pirates of Mendota...what have the scouts become?

1995-97 scouts brass, or crown brass of this decade? both amazing/powerful, and seemed to dominated their times (brass-wise). I haven't seen crown live yet, so I dunno. any opinions out there from someone who's heard both live?

A lot of people say that Bb horns are "better" than the G bugles because they're able to be played with more refinement. I personally say, "Yeah.....that's exactly what fans sitting in a football stadium want when they're sitting 40 yards away from a corps. Refinement. Who needs volume and power when you can have refinement?" (Of course, I'm being sarcastic.) If I wanted refinement I'd go see an orchestra play. You don't see fans jump up out of their seats any more the way they used to because shows just don't have the oomph and powerful sound that they used to. I miss that sound.

God, I miss this kind of aggression in music.

I never say the word "awesome", but they truly are awesome!

lol Terry and her hair working the shizzzz outta it!

No Madison 2001? Like the ending?

1996 was my favorite!!!!

'97 Scouts ending might be the greatest moment in drum corps history. I toured three summer with top world class corps and was actually there near the gate (with another corps) when '97 scouts were on. Never seen anything like it.

Can't argue with this video. The 90s Madison Scouts are why I got into DCI. Especially 95 and 96. I know they were a tad sloppy but still the writing and performers were champs in my mind. They gave me a reason to get out of my seat, regardless of scores. BTW I love the fact that despite DCI's nonsense about blocking out copyright tunes you dubbed it in lol. I will not buy anymore DVDs from them because of that.

1995 .. WOW!!! The Scouts program that year was like a powerful force to be recon with and the way they brought the crowd to there feet, cheering for them,way before they can totally end there show, man.. I can imagine the emotion these guys must of felt while performing to look up and see the crowd all on there feet for them. I don't care what anyone says, The Scouts should've been champions in 1995. Even in 2014, nearly two decades later, I still get chills watching there '95 program. I only wish I could've been a part of the Scouts in 1995

One thing I haven't figured out over the years about Madison Scouts is why all the "New York" themed shows? Not that I mind, being from NYC, just wondered.....

Big Fan of Madison since I saw them my first season in drum corps in 1974. They were the loudest,most powerful drum corps I had seen up close, It was a thrill watching them win DCI championship in '75. Wow, this year will be 40 years of watching this Corps......and they still crowd please.....Wish them 40 years more!

Dang! No '04???

96- Dat quad line, doe. I'm actually auditioning for the Scouts next weekend. SUCH A HYPE!!!!!

Nice Job! This corp. is always close to my heart. I can tell you are a fan of the company front! Thanks, I saved it to my play list.

Hahaha! Nail on the head, mister (misses?)!!!

'88 Malguena isn't in here because then they'd have to rename the video to "Best DCI moments of all time, the majority of them being Scouts".

C'mon brother, you missed the intros to both 10-11, which were the best of those shows. Loved how you blotted out "NOT" available lol. The way I see it, if they can't let us hear the audio on a recording, why are they allowed to play it live? It's no different, DCI gets sales from both. I refuse to buy their DVDs for that reason.

Dem company fronts.

2nd best - I got to see Daniel Veerhuesen(?) do that in 1980- Check out "Ice Castles"

How could you not include the opening of 1996's Malaga - Pure strength wielded by grace.

no respect. i see what you did there.

It says for the last 20 years in the description...88 was more than 2 decades back.

There are two types of people in this world: people who love the Madison Scouts, and people who don't know about DCI at all.

Audio for "Empire State of Mind" is --- available due to music licensing considerations. lol

I love 8:57-10:00 so awesome! It's inspiring!

Play those trumpets!!! Wow that was incredible!!

This is a great video!

No problem. I was taking the summer off (I aged out of Scouts this summer) plus I had a friend in the group (and even more now), so I know how it feels to have videos online. My rookie year (Scouts 09) there are NO pit videos on the internet. zero. Bummer.

I do appreciate you taking this video btw. Even though I was off doing something during the part of the exercise, it reminds me of a great summer i had.

A "Best Of" for Scouts without 88 Malaguena. OK then.

I mean i can see that for some of the 2000's but 05 is one of my favorite scouts show and the new staff has been doing a killer job the past 3 years!

As soon as their uniforms changed they went down hill, the 90's was where it was at for the scouts. Used to be my favorite.

It was the purple coolaid.

That drill move at 0:30, corpsgasm.

How did you get the 2011 closer?? It it the semi-finals??

I was in that crowd. I had my jizz-covered shorts put under glass and mounted above my fireplace.
