2010 Blue Devils Drumline - Triplet Rolls

[@Bassliketheguitar1]

"Is that a video?" "IT''S WHATEVER YOU WANT IT TO BE, MASTER JOHNSON."

[@ArtisticGirl1113]

"No pressure Dean" haha Dean did amazing and so did the entire tenor line!

[@Brian-rj1un]

Scott Johnson is so cool! He was very nice to the kid who wanted to record, and the kid was respectful. Amazing drummer, and amazing person

[@m.sepich]

I met Scott at the System Blue booth at WGI 2019. Seriously such a cool guy, I was a nervous freshman in high school and shook his hand. Should’ve asked for a picture with him lmao

[@alexgaeckle1540]

Oh man Joe you got Scojo to hold that for you..

[@Anderums]

Thank you SO MUCH for choosing quads. 3

[@kmtobia]

Woah, I had no idea this was you!

[@briancantero6123]

Hi keelan

[@AetherPhantasm]

God, i love how awesome ScoJo is. He is by far the most awesome drum tech ever.

[@A7Xblood]

and THAT is why scott johnson is the coolest drum guy ever.. because he's cool enough to do whatever you want when it comes to filming this stuff... thumbs up if you agree

[@yousefi95]

scott johnson is so kind to record this for the kid :)

[@scvanguard1]

So awesome that Scott Johnson did that!

[@paradiddlepedro]

i love how on deans tenors his beating spot on drum 2nd are like perfect but on his 3rd drum they are all over hahah

[@Aidan-Eames]

Scojo the cameraman

[@Bluedevil93081]

@salarmander this allows for a quicker sticks out. If you put your finger in between, the sticks are already separated and easier to put into playing position.

[@stevenspringer6099]

man that brings me back. had to do the exact same exercise when I was on the line back in high school

[@sumthingmessy]

its cool that scojo takes the cameras and records for people. ive seen him do it a few times

[@gildammusic5338]

we have 2 legends at our school, Dean is one of them.

[@thatboydio]

I thinks it's cool how the qaud line is the same height so their drums are at the same height

[@bignate5991]

just got those quad heads....they sound amazing!!

[@DrumChick2007]

I can't wait to be on a drum line!! Man, I can only hope! :D

[@MordasMakesStuff]

So, did you get drumline?

[@kyliecashion3740]

@@MordasMakesStuff I actually did not. I got married and had a boy instead 😅 I still play drums though ✌

[@MordasMakesStuff]

@@kyliecashion3740 that's still great to hear!

[@1981TURBOTRANSAM1]

Fantastic!!

[@TheQuigs07]

@PoohStickProductions its an electronic metronome btw

[@Jortizdrumz68]

the two outside tenor players are from the same HS and this years tenor line has three from the same HS that is really cool t

[@Skullclone]

They have rehearsals for their rehearsals.

[@vanhalenIOU1]

Really? Whenever i met him at a competition, he seemed super chill

[@Yimmies]

@RebelOnAWarpath they are pro-mark brand. our school uses em but im not sure what the tenor sticks are called, i know the snare ones are called DC17 scott johnson signature.

[@danlini2021]

thanks, bro

[@quintman15]

He's the guy that smiles at the camera twice

[@CommancheDoyle]

@cddrummer96 I think both Vic and Promark have the Vega tip..

[@666ChildrenOfBodom6]

@AlexThlangVEVO yeah the sean vega tenor sticks.

[@deusvult6900]

Side view is incredibly satisfying

[@DrumChick2007]

Sureeeee. One day I'll be on a drum line (Blue Devils) and I promise I will not suck.;)

[@drumsman24]

@MoustacheCloud ye, cause of the tip but do u know where i can find white coloured sticks???

[@MyachiTipsandTricks]

how do hey do it all in synchronization

[@RoxxyFOXX10]

O. M. G. Best drumline. Ever.

[@vicfirthdrummer95]

Can someone tell me why the quads hold their sticks at the set postion like that?

[@flaviolopes2613]

I was searching for some rudiments and found this....really cool

[@DrBeatDrummer]

i was at this same camp haha I was on the other side of where you were recording though lol.

[@hazda5791]

You do realize the guy recording is the drum tech

[@izavala11]

Love the drums pretty cool how my school has them now

[@vivi7676]

Perfect technique is perfect

[@lightningmcqueenfanpage4103]

Those matching stuck heights 👌

[@madmax875]

Damn, sick nasty. Especially the last rep.

[@azurezaber]

when dean was playing a was legit thinking "is he the only one playing?"

[@quintman15]

@crimson206 it's a sony cybershot, it's like two years old but it gets the job done

[@drumdude91123]

Those quads are so cleaann :D

[@beastdrummer555]

scott Johnson is so cool!

[@Fizzylard]

@bignate5991 what type of heads are they. i want a set

[@BillXHETASXCook]

Scott Johnson is so damn cool.

[@garylagstrom3864]

The way tenors should be played and sound! TENORS RULE😎😎😎

[@animelover3400]

Scott is the best.

[@presbarkeep]

EPIC SIC WIN EARGASM!!!!

[@RebelOnAWarpath]

@itachimercenary15 they used to use the mts1 or mst whatever it was, it was a scott johnson signature, i have like 12 pairs of them, they were great, i never knew that scojo switched em over to promark, till i looked at vic firth's website and saw that they changed the name of the stick. eh, promark and vic firth are good i guess

[@crbndecay22]

Yeah, why not? I mean theirs a lot that's able to do both, but if your playing tenors it's always matched unless your just adding traditional for visual.

[@poopmcdoopdoop]

I was under the impression that they call it quads because they have 4 main drums and the 2 spocks are more of a sound effect... but who knows? probably Scott Johnson.

[@blueturtleteo65]

what made you choose bluecoats over blue devils

[@tbnrbranch2085]

um duh cause there definitely better like there's no question about it

[@blueturtleteo65]

TBNR branch they were this year, but that's just about the only time they were better in a cleanliness point of view. Bluecoats almost always has the better design in my opinion

[@Soundwves]

what is: personal preference

[@malditobandito98]

Colin Armstrong You act like that's all that matters, man, at least Bluecoat's line has heart. Tbh, if I was offered a contract at BD or Bluecoats, I'd pick Bluecoats any day.

[@xxzhoutaixx]

what the fuck does that even mean the bluecoat's line has heart lmao.

[@LpZil91]

scotts the man he always does this for people

[@animythfameEm]

Get it girl

[@kooliodrummer53]

Im in the same boat dude. Except we have never had instructors. so I have to teach and make up the stuff our line does. I gained leadership skills that i couldnt have otherwise though, so thats good.

[@createallow3126]

If your bored skip to 2:08 for extra wicked drumming.

[@tenordude2012]

anyone got sheet music for this? especially for the ensemble part

[@kylosme]

iv had one where im running through my house trying to find out where its coming from. crazy

[@xgigglesgotwater]

@MinnesotaHockey7 yes. yes they are.

[@MinecraftArtistry]

Because goddammit, it's the sexy-ass Blue Devils playing.

[@prodigydrummer]

listen to that velocity!

[@TravisConover]

that might have actually been perfect....

[@MoustacheCloud]

@drumsman24 they look like a variety of System Blue by Pro Mark

[@TheBeedo11]

The synchronization of this is just to epic! *dies* X_X

[@ns81]

Do they select for appearance when they hire guys for this? Do they all have the same personal trainer and diet coach?

[@beastdrummer555]

@Kissmykilt11 no..they are playing triplet rolls....like the rudiment...not the actual drum

[@CommancheDoyle]

@Bzong Yeah it was ScoJo

[@iMacxXuserXx485]

Is each sizzle of the rolls in time to?? Feels like it.

[@zex007]

which pearl do they use on tenor

[@wirasaki]

@quintman15 where is dean hickman?

[@RebelOnAWarpath]

damn those ain't vic firth sticks what are they?

[@trevjdrums]

is that 12/8 sequencing at 1:05 ?

[@derek1134]

I have one of those too but mine has a little more oatmeal around it

[@chasenb0621]

DDDDDDDEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNN!!!!!! went to college with that guy! AWESOME!

[@virtuosity7]

ScoJo's seems just like an amazingly friendly guy

[@UKrocketeer]

did he say 08 short tag? or dittoeight short tag?

[@Fizzylard]

what heads are those.

[@HKadam91]

scotts a good guy

[@ProdLar]

Does ANYONE have sheet music for the first part of the warmup??

[@ProdLar]

***** Yeah I figured it out thanks

[@PeanutTrismegistus]

So do all tenors play match grip?

[@sp0ttedskyify]

i want a drumline like this :,( lolol

[@crimson206]

ScoJo's the best haha. Hey what camera are you using?

[@mhsdl2012]

Dean Hickman is a fucking beast

[@danlini2021]

So, my friend and I are captains to a metiocre high school line, and this year we lost our drum instructor so we pretty much have to be the instructors. Any tips?

[@novus_00]

[@KayliTV]

[@troupteamawesome]

Holy tan line!

[@smithdrummer95]

[@izzydez2467]

Never not amazed

[@incogneterpeter]

@sexyyetiable ehh have you never seen any drum corp or college band practice ive seen videos of the blue devils practicing in just boxers

[@ncookie712]

[@nsudrumshard]

@treefalse they dont make 14,14's...its 6,8,10,12,13,14

[@angeldrummer6912]

its just triplets with rolls in them what do you not get from the title?

[@CopperheadViper]

How often do you replace the heads for the quads?

[@shane6021]

Why not?
