2012 Cadets Finals Drum Tape

[@smdftb8495]

Now that judges aren't on the field anymore, we'll never hear an Allen tape like this again.

[@antoniokofoed7139]

Yeah man. I love Allen tapes.

[@NickRobo1994]

Number 1 bass drum has SWEET rolls! Yeah Baby.

[@KyleTsuchiya]

He gets a little Debbie downer on the snares, but keep in mind that all of them were rookies.... That's pretty awesome

[@KiranSundarkdog97]

I guess they just needed another year to mature 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@cosmodrum1]

Allen Kristensen ways always my favorite judge. No matter how many times he saw you play, he was always SO into your performance. A guy that just LOVES the activity.

[@Tealmaker]

damn that ending... so much hype

[@geraldA1sauce]

I love the hype that this line had.

[@Emericalife26]

"Bass 1 has SWEET rolls, Yeah baby" haha that's got to be the best compliment ever given by a judge.

[@klmsdrummer]

as a timpani player from another corps, I really looked up to this timp player. Soo talented

[@johnythanj]

That number one bass drum has some SWEET rolls. Oh yeah baby

[@Sparkslinger]

Agree with Robert Harvey. The pit was playing delicate phrasing and subtle expression that you normally only get with a single player. Well done!

[@joshuaccz]

He was eating the snares for breakfast.

[@Jamison_Vogt]

7:52 "Those are great sleigh bells you have there." XD

[@DatSimbaCrazy]

i don't know something about when the judge says good evening cadets makes it sound awsome

[@SassInYourClass]

This is not NEARLY high enough quality to convey the preciseness of what he heard. The level of judging on these guys is beyond what either of us probably understand. That small of a difference between being clean and dirty is not going to come through on a 480p KZbin video.

[@KeatonIsFTW]

To be fair, that timpani part was one of the coolest timpani parts I've ever heard.

[@pasta_heals]

I've never heard a judge comment on the timpani. This is cool.

[@sk8rguy4life1123]

Wow, that must've been a really good timpanist.

[@bmrdrummer97]

that timpani player is fucking awesome

[@zRhid]

It's also about a billion times easier to hear dirt on snares than anything else because of how high it is tuned most of the time. Same with flutes and intonation and tuning

[@madprogamer4076]

Allen during the closer. Snares🤮 basses😍

[@mholub]

Way to go, Greg!

[@1anonymousb]

To recap: I love you tympani. I hate you snares!

[@ImEverythingYouCrave]

Clovis CA represent!

[@hturt4]

Maybe it's the quality if the tape, but he heard dirt where it sounded clean. And there were 2 spots where there was a little dirt where he said nothing. His lack of comments about the difficulty and musicality lead me to believe he might not be aware if how difficult this show was, and go well performed it was. But hey, he's a fan.

[@trick0522]

(in the creepiest voice possible) Those are great sleigh bells you have there...

[@Joel1141973]

He judged a few shows we were at. He was the field judge at prelims in Marion. He stepped out of the pit as I come by and I knocked him down. He actually called me an a**hole on the tape. That night he was judging from the press box.

[@wildhornbrass]

Bass Drums that was hot!

[@Ianmahaffeypercussion]

so true. audio covers up alot of dirt and if you can hear dirt on a tape in reality it sounds so bad live

[@geraldA1sauce]

"Bass 1 has SWEET rolls, yeah baby!" Lol

[@XnathananX]

thank you so. so. much

[@igotmybackscratched1961]

7:40- Gets me every time.

[@tommytimp]

As it should ALWAYS be.

[@bmrdrummer97]

timpani is so awesome in this

[@williamredd4984]

Get it HB!

[@KiranSundarkdog97]

2012's perc was the opposite of 2011's perc in terms of who got the compliments lol I just noticed that by comparing the two

[@stevenszabo5054]

i dig you guys!!!!!!

[@XnathananX]

"bass drums that was hot" yessss

[@jsk8drummer]

So. much. hype. at the end

[@Malletdude31]

Holy bass is all I'm gonna say. Snare drums got nailed pretty bad for a lot of dirt, didn't sound that way on the finals mp3 I have, but yeah, there's a lot there.

[@IglesiaMISanJuan]

Nice on the spawker quads! 0-O Oh yeah timpani hahaha thi guys is something else!

[@rennycriswell533]

He got cut from the 1990 cadets line

[@jsk8drummer]

After seeing Vanguard on the field before this, they're not going to be able to compare when it comes to musicality. I agree with the rest of your statement though.

[@DrumLuv23]

I wouldn't be surprised because I always considered to have the "melody" of the writing. Therefore, much more musical scrutiny.

[@GCBANKS]

@XnathananX your welcome

[@petarpwnsuall]

literally all of them do, all the time

[@tnave93]

If i remember correctly...this year had an all rookie snareline. might be the reason for all the dirt comments toward the snares.

[@j.cordero6965]

Yeah... and then 2013 came along!

[@ImVee10]

Hey, have you any idea how to obtain the Cadets' three finals judges tapes from 1987? I'd PAY to hear those!!!

[@Ekrigbaum]

"OOOOooooOOOOooooo nice!!!!"

[@caarisss]

YEA TIMPANI

[@BZDrummer1]

lol "yeah baby"

[@mrtmoney233]

This judge is kinda tearing up the snares, lol.

[@djjp02]

Sleight Bells you have fans ;)

[@garnerlucas]

I HEAR YA BASS DRUMS

[@FoSalgueiro_Music]

Don't get mad at me if I dont know, but wasn't JJ Pipitone the percussion judge for finals?

[@PlushChronicles]

Great judge, wasnt he?

[@behold888]

9:52 lol

[@cadet345]

Put the lawrence one up, Greg

[@Joel1141973]

I broke this guys ankle in 1990 in Marion Ohio when he stepped in front of me .

[@abelmank8036]

YEAH BABY! 4:10

[@JoRoHarris]

I thought so too....guess not...

[@PhantomOfThe985]
