2019 Cavaliers - Africa/Rosanna (Encore in 4K)

August 4th, 2019 in Buffalo, NY

[@definitelynotcainan3353]

And THAT kids is how you do an encore ladies and gents. THAT is how you connect with the crowd. I have absolutely NO DOUBT that somewhere in that crowd, a kid just got motivated to try out for drum corps because he or she wants to be just like these performers! Well done Cavaliers... Uncle Don is no doubt smiling and chomping on his cigar in Heaven watching this!

Happened to me at their home show

[@rickyhernandez792]

Former DCI, well said!! THEY OWN THAT MEDLEY. GO CAVS!!!

[@kadenswansonmusic7662]

Unmanly tears were shed to the sound of mellows out playing trumpets.

[@punkaton5959]

As a trumpet player, I hate you. As a marching band member, I love you 🤣🤣

[@ronmcbride2100]

@@punkaton5959 And this is exactly why I loved playing the Mellophone. It took 3 really good trumpet players to keep up with the sound I could put out of my Mello.

[@bachstrad1994]

trumpets came a lot closer here than in the early 2018 recording.

[@gabrielh7517]

Someone pissed off the mellos again

[@jjh2456]

gabriel h people should piss off the mellos more cause my god the sound they make sends shivers down my spine and in a good way.

[@patrickstokesbary6962]

THESE MELLOS

[@bblulz7554]

i was in the audience for this show. still a legendary moment in my mind

[@thedeltadriver1438]

Mellos will always be my favorite

[@ronmcbride2100]

An absolutely perfect example of why I played Mello & loved playing it too.

[@laynie7720]

the Cavalier mellos will always have a special place in my heart, they're so amazing.

[@ohrate]

That’s godda be the luckiest drummer ever. On his own with THAT hornline. Insane.

[@LoungeSometimes]

s/o to the two guys in the front row vibing the whole time. same

[@a-gappower1574]

Holy SH*T the energy from that group, What a performance

[@amberbrown6229]

The way the mellos BRING it at the :50 mark... It's completely overwhelming and I am here for it. The SERATONIN.

[@billhoehlein]

These guys LOVE playng music for a crowd!!! What a wonderful brotherhood!!!

[@morganc9410]

as a mello this comment section is making me feel amazing as most people don't even know who we are

[@tommcconville4270]

This is just an awesome performance I just can't describe in words. Sending this to my brother, a professional guitarist who only does weekend gigs now.

[@trevorscoversandmusic5656]

As a former Mello player in my High School band, I approve of those mellos😂. Dang I miss playing mello, may look at joining a Corp one day just to March again

[@alexisbabines1935]

Sax here. Same. Its been too long since I’ve marched

[@gewing88]

Seriously! As a life long PR 'Phan"...the Cavies as always NAIL IT!....Freaking awesome gentlemen! Thank you for that!...

[@stefan00123]

Love from the netherlands ❤❤ this sounds really great espacially those trumpets with the marching bass .. goosebumps everywhere 🙏🙏🙏

[@ahayes9945]

Cavs: I trust my audience so much I can do this with them..

[@jjh2456]

MELLOS!!!!

[@mwcluthier]

I love all these guys and what they do. But... there is nothing Ike watching the contras roll up on shoulders. Wow. Thank you Don. Cant wait to get back on the fields.

[@zacharypuckett5499]

I’m a to the bone trumpet player and fan, those mellos... MINT.

[@jonmclarenproductions3853]

We are superior😎

[@baxchels]

Oh my goodness! This was so fun to watch!! Y'all have a new fan in Spring, Texas!!!!

[@tracyrionovanewfs7862]

This is beyond AWESOME!!! Way to nail it guys!!!!!

[@punkaton5959]

Mellos got me like: IM GOING TO WAR

[@noahemmertwx]

Now this is a type of band I want to be in!

[@tommcconville4270]

Only the Cavs can perform this medley folks.

[@virginiaweidenhamer870]

GOOSEBUMPS!!!

[@averybondeson3322]

Hell yeah Max!!

[@bjyokums]

Goose bumps.....

[@davidlawrence2204]

I miss the days when the show music had horn line work like this.

[@Lufbery17]

Mello Mafia rise up!

[@katekat4522]

Anyone else just here for the mellos?

[@CarlFMusic25]

Felt it good!.

[@wesleycarson9254]

This is good stuff right here

[@caras2004]

Now that's an exit

[@sonjagood7305]

[@lucarichter3126]

😍😍😍

[@EmoryBlake4Music]

Man, those hihats are tasty!

[@IndigosClothing]

the mellos seem louder than trumpets

[@freakyfrederick]

as it should be ;)

[@Thetubaguy104]

what college or high school is this from

[@therookout]

The Cavaliers Drum & Bugle Corps

[@prestonjones20013]

Mellos

[@NickCarterFanSince92]

not for nothing the band works out just as hard as the 'team' does... i've been on both sides... on the team and in the band...

[@calebemery4916]

This isnt for football

[@BM-ek4tn]

NickCarterFanSince92 yeah this ain’t for football, these guys don’t do that. Drum Corps don’t do that.

[@EmoryBlake4Music]

I second Caleb Emery and Yagiii, and add that this activity is WAY harder (and more rewarding) than any marching band you'll ever be a part of. Think of your hardest marching band rehearsal, multiply it by 100, then do it for 80 days straight.

[@bachstrad1994]

haha this IS the team
