First full stadium runthrough bluecoats 2017

FOR EDUCATIONAL USE ONLY.
This is the first complete runthrough of the 2017 Bluecoats show entitled "Jagged Line" performed at Denison University on June 20th, 2017.

[@keenman0403]

I swear for 2018's show they might as well just scatter the pit all over the entire field and have everyone perform in their underwear. Show entitled "Asymmetrical"

[@Alaric-Live]

Keenan D lol 😂

[@TheUpAndComingNobody]

God damnit stop spoiling their ideas!!!!

[@seanlasker4147]

Keenan D *The designers see this comment* Designers: Fuck guess we can't do that next year

[@hunterwelcher5485]

No, they gotta bring Keenan onto the staff like: "You had the best idea for next year's show. Design it. Go."

[@abigayleduncan8955]

Best comment I have ever seen 😂😂😂😂😂 dear lord.

[@andresdelgado8863]

If THIS was the first full run then my god you guys have a special group of musicians this is going to be INCREDIBLE by finals.

[@zachnichols2019]

Andres Delgado agreed

[@Ryan-dz7mg]

Binkie Ladd They said they are adding more props and refining the ballad

[@ChriDaviOffi]

Andres Delgado it was the second run and I agree

[@setiyoung8947]

"This is the first complete runthrough of the 2017 Bluecoats show entitled "Jagged Line" performed at Denison University on June 20th, 2017."

[@AlexAfferMetallica]

I doubt this is the first runthrough, the title says first STADIUM runthrough

[@stevenle8833]

bluecoats sure love ramps

[@vangavenrobles7238]

Steven Le for real though😂😂

[@jimmyj956]

Steven Le and zig zags

[@Ryan-dz7mg]

jimmy j it's stairs

[@danputaski6368]

Ryan Ryan they can slide down the line its hot staits

[@benkessler4439]

Until 2018s obsession with chairs lol

[@mjr9145]

😳 Now I know why Thank You Scientist was blown away by what they did with the arrangement and execution. The reprise of "Psychopomp" and that chorus hit at 11:12 is incredible. Can't wait to see it in person.

[@sci8]

This is way better than watching in theaters for some reason

[@domnew4480]

Samuel Cai all the solo mics were messed up yesterday

[@sci8]

AH! I was wondering why the trombone was silent in the theater.

[@candidusbrass2848]

Samuel Cai Ya I couldnt here solos or when they re featured last years cavs you couldnt hear the trunpet quartets

[@gbrlbqrn]

I think I like this because of the lack of odd uniform. I really like the black

[@sci8]

That's definitely part of it. Would've been so cool in the '13-'15 coats.

[@MomboTrombo]

Hmm... some pretty interesting choices with the euphonium solo tuning.

[@Varadict]

Probably just sharp from not being used in a while.

[@brendanhamill944]

If sitting around in the heat, it'll be sharp whenever you pick it back up

[@bradywood459]

Nick Halbig theyll fix it, it's only the beginning of the season, so it'll improve soon

[@wei-anhsieh2853]

Nick Halbig they took an L on the premiere night

[@JacobHalfman]

Angus Hsieh they won premiere night bruh

[@noahgormanmusic1843]

Anyone other than me feel that Bluecoats '14, '15, '16, and '17 shows are somehow interconnected?

[@BrianLanders]

Tilting the Kinetic Noise on the Downside Up to the Jagged Line

[@noahgormanmusic1843]

Funny, but I'm saying maybe there's some odd "abstract concept quadrilogy"

[@Bren9431]

Brian Landers No, it's that the jagged line isn't upside down, its downside up. You tilt in to hear the kinetic noise.

[@seanlasker4147]

Gormstorm when you tilt the field you finally hear the kinetic noise for then the world will forever be downside up as you go down the jagged line

[@seanlasker4147]

Bill Nye The Nazi Spy i feel like this is '15 and '16 in a mixture

[@wkziegler]

I love the nontraditional front ensemble set up again. Just awesome.

[@thejazzman5231]

yeah the angled design for the front ensamble was really dope and must have been fun to put together switching from marimba to vibes really quickly like that.

[@emmettsimon9487]

The issue with such a setup is it rids the front ensemble of half of their members

[@hwkrbchcrft54]

With so many Corps ending their shoes in B flat, E flat, or A flat, it's nice to hear a solid D major at the end. A beautiful chord.

[@larenzstewart6378]

Ben Gunnarson for president, this is a man who knows what the people want

[@Ryan-dz7mg]

Lman 02 A five year old kid will make a better president then Trump

[@simplyvibinn5417]

We need to come up with a slogan for Gunnarson

[@arsonwells69]

You're gunnar-want me to be your President.

[@jordantyler148]

What impact did he have on the show this year?

[@arsonwells69]

Jordan Croteau besides uploading the show for US? Ben is Ben. he makes it all better.

[@Tr-en-to-nn]

This is the golden age of bloooooooooooo

[@matty_c]

Trenton Harris Actually, it's the white age. Not race, but uniform color lol

[@RatSlayerGaming]

Cinnamatt Toastcrunch explains their chord progression warm up "white dawn"

[@consti7161]

From 1st to 5th.... Sad

[@band51]

Cavie Roosemont same thing happened to crown in 2014

[@consti7161]

dominick phillips thats Right 👀 or Phantom 2008 to 2009... From 1st to 9th or something like that

[@theunknowndrummer1209]

My uncultured friend: why is everyone screaming boo? Me: that is no boo, thou is a BATTLE CRY

[@mitchellbaughman6485]

ExCelsior lol

[@jacobhanekamp2534]

*insert You Wouldnt Get It meme here*

[@kpov2533]

@MICHAEL JONES its literally not mean😂 its a joke

[@maxbehymer8535]

Just when I thought I couldn't love you anymore, you give us this. You are a god among men, Mr Gunnarson.

[@BigD835042]

Max Behymer he's on staff this year...

[@maxbehymer8535]

BigD835042 I know. Why is that relevant?

[@Bren9431]

Max Behymer I was actually gonna ask where he was gonna be this year

[@bryanx0000]

Brendan K same lol

[@yellek19]

BigD835042 did he age out?

[@mariobustamante7033]

I FINALLY GET TO HEAT THE TROMBONE SOLO

[@racingman3849]

@spoc WOO!

[@gopro_kid4313]

It's nothing compared to watching them rehearse in person. They execute everything from water breaks to simple instructions and changes so well. I loved watching them rehearse for that show and they sound amazing

[@TheHeadlessChikin128]

Sweet Jesus 1:36-1:52 grooves so damn hard i love it

[@willowpets]

Yeeee if you didn’t already know, the song is “Psychopomp” by Thank You Scientist. An absolute jam

[@pseudoname23]

@@willowpets Seconded. This show made me a huge fan of the band, they put out banger after banger.

[@Paisleydoesguard]

YES IT DOESSS

[@kennethsperanza89]

Is it just me, or would dropping the bone solo at 9:07 an octave make it sound absolutely AMAZING?

[@scorpionkid991]

:) You definitely know what the people want don't you?

[@Baconism]

Can't wait to see the GoPro Cam videos 😄

[@kabadodong]

DaBaconGames unfortunately there most likely won't be one seeing as Mr. Gunnarson is no longer in the band

[@benschaum6027]

Samuel Hofmann i think he means in general

[@loneuserper2695]

Samuel Hofmann *cough* Corp

[@Baconism]

Samuel Hofmann He's not???? Dammit man... But yeah I did mean in general

[@Zyther]

Boon Schoom even then, they're wearing hats so probably rip gopro vids but idk

[@baltazarmathew]

0:00 to 12:00 is the best part

[@merktacomala3420]

Yeah man 12:01 sucks

[@anishkanungo9201]

Merk Tacomala Yeah because that's the end

[@Bren9431]

Anish Kanungo True

[@thenerdyotaku7583]

Mathew Baltazar so true

[@TheRealAjGaming]

True

[@fuhq6731]

The closer is phenomenal. I always love it when the finale is my favorite segment of a show.

[@daq305]

did anyone else think of the gamecube startup sound at 9:38

[@zacharylutes7765]

king turtle kinda , but ik it's played by a picolo trumpet

[@daq305]

Zachary Lutes true

[@prog8173]

king turtle I hated that solo part... it sounded so weird.

[@Roak1]

I have a slight feeling that that ending was a little abrupt. More to come? ;)

[@kylegardner9240]

I think they should play the part in psychopomp where all the brass come in instead of the big chord at the end, as sort of a repeat. like if u agree

[@matthewchinea6342]

Ken Fernandez nah you suck

[@ChriDaviOffi]

Run time is only 12 min and it supposed to be at 16

[@setiyoung8947]

What?

[@austinmurphy6045]

always

[@sirjamesthe24th33]

this will forever be my fav show of all DCI history.

[@DennisJohnsonDrummer]

So much energy in this show. Gifted writers and gifted performers. Thanks for sharing!

[@soccerfc9534]

For some reason the electronic equipment had something wrong because you couldn't hear the solos at all. In this video you can hear the solosz

[@caddo672]

Yeah in theaters you couldnt hear the trombone solo at all

[@Mugicha808]

Justin Walz DCI plays the final 8 in select movie theaters around the US.

[@ethans4783]

Justin Walz yeah. they should have more info about it on the DCI website, check it out, it's pretty cool

[@josiahbelfiore4204]

Okay, that last movement was PHENOMENAL

[@ivanromero2334]

just when you thought it couldn't get any better...

[@sebmaster36]

Ben = G.O.A.T

[@chrishickman7059]

Sebastian Gutierrez I don't know who that is. I'm here because everyone was commenting let's go bloo on the zomby woof video

[@byroncupp]

This is absolutely amazing! Between this video and the others I have watched this show five times already. 😂 Can't wait to see the show in person. Great job Bloo!

[@byroncupp]

And WOA! The trombones!

[@carlosobando3056]

If you watch DownSideUp and then watch this show it almost feels like the start of this picks up where DownSideUp left off. Like as if DownSideUp never really ended, they kinda just paused it.

[@dizdawgjr34]

I’m starting to think they saw this comment when working on coming up with The Bluecoats and Lucy…

[@charlesdyall8153]

I barely noticed, but if you look closely the trumpet soloist's mute falls out at 9:23 😂

[@Ryan-dz7mg]

Charles Dyall It’s intentional

[@dumbcunt2481]

It doesnt fall out. She tosses it. Watch one of the lead trumpet cams and youll see her toss it

[@jared0111]

4:00 YESSSSSS god damn you guys know how to give a former bluecoats upper mello big ol' chills! ten years removed from my last sesh with the corps, oh shit. anyway that was a wonderful moment right there. this show's got a whole lot of potential.

[@jared0111]

also those sets of three descending mello notes in the ballad climax totally sound like our part leading up to the big chord in 'my heart and i' from '06...anyone else notice that?

[@davidbalut4149]

honestly I've never seen a drum core that never ceases to amaze me every year with their unique​ style and creativity WELL DONE!!!

[@josiah9647]

Am I the only one who cant wait until some povs of this show come out?

[@AVaguely]

A lot of mixed Bloo/Crown opinions, but honestly as long as one of them beats BD, I'll be just fine. Both corps (Bloo/Crown) have completely different and equally impressive shows!!

[@Devillion100]

Why the blind hate for BD?

[@matthewk7149]

No blind hate, people just get sick of seeing the same corps winning year after year. Not discrediting what the Devils do, they're an amazing corps, but it just gets kind of stale and predictable when they crown the same champion every year.

[@Tkibbs14]

Devillion100 Also, BD members are cocky about their winning streak.. nothing against the corps though, they have an amazing hornline, like many other corps. Bloo and Crown fans are pretty salty about them getting all the credit and bloo and Crown tried new things, and they've started to impress the judges more.

[@crowgob]

This man was not prepared for metamorph

[@uneedmusic6887]

The ending gets me every time I can’t get it out of my head

[@darkroselight3835]

This show was incredible. I remember seeing it live for the first time. Easily my favorite show of all time.

[@tedthebear98]

I was there that night and it was the first live DCI performance I've ever seen/heard. My life is forever changed, for the better! Thank you, Bluecoats! 💙 BLOOOOO

[@thenerdyotaku7583]

Dude, this show amazing. I love it so much and the music is just perfect. So energy-filled and every section is just on point. Honestly, the best I could've ever possibly seen.

[@32RH]

They just need to fix the euphonium solo and get their screams down, then they're golden

[@Gavala65]

in love with this performance soo much lord

[@rhinomcd]

what the heck I need to see this live.

[@candidusbrass2848]

Ryan McDonough It was great live but the soloist mics were messed up so you couldnt hear any solos at all for any corps this is better than live.

[@rhinomcd]

I'm definitely thinking later in the season, but so far off to a great start.

[@candidusbrass2848]

Ryan McDonough Very true its a great start!

[@tristantbennett]

came here only because I heard they did some thank you scientist songs but wow, I'm blown away.

[@emmanuelacevedo3828]

Tristan Bennett You're not a band person?

[@tristantbennett]

Emmanuel Acevedo don't get me wrong I love band, I was in marching band for 3 years in HS and one in college, I just don't follow DCI or anything but when I heard they were doing a song from one of my favorite bands I had to check it out!

[@emmanuelacevedo3828]

Tristan Bennett Oh wow, pretty cool

[@ashenrose2262]

I saw this cause i went on a marching band video watching binge and couldn't beleive it when i saw this cause the time signatures alone would make this super hard. I don't listen to thank you scientist a ton but they're one of my dad's favorite bands.

[@verniercape4620]

9:09 NUT

[@raywasky5797]

You just can't beat that. The Best Show I ever saw since SCV in '89! INCREDIBLE!!!!

[@Bren9431]

They definitely need to work on that euph solo tho, but still amazing

[@Zynxy1234]

In the Euph players defense the solo is technically a really high solo for the instrument its being played on.

[@Bren9431]

Rene Cortez yeah ik

[@animeprincess98]

Show was very solid, but felt the second song was a bit sloppy. Other than that, great job! So excited for my first season of watching dci

[@pfeifanddrum4610]

Black Sparkz welcome

[@nickadkins5679]

I've watched multiple runs of this, in theaters and these videos on youtube and every time I watch it I love it more, and now since I've heard all of the solos now I think this can be another world championship show and beat Blue Devils. I absolutely love it.

[@tomstevens2242]

Nick Adkins what do you mean in theaters

[@nickadkins5679]

the first show the bluecoats did was at the DCI tour premiere in Indy and they livestream that show to some theaters so I went to it in a theater by me.

[@stephensharp6886]

huh sike 😂😂

[@brandonnvlogs5276]

I’m waiting for the bluecoats to win the zingali. They steadily have some of the cleanest flag features. All it will take is the right staff and the right members. I definitely think they could take it.

[@SamHackenson]

That last hit, oh my god, I can't wait to see this live! What a fun show.

[@jakebaker1051]

This whole show is a banger

[@skrittyy]

normally i'd cheer on crown... but my mind is screaming BLOO

[@michaelgalvan1749]

10:45 Hands down one of my favorite DCI moments

[@Tracks777]

I look forward to more videos.Keep it up!

[@eviesstrong_]

Oh my goodness 11:12 to the ending is BEAUTIFUL 😍😍😍😍😭😭😭😭😭👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@corbinhoffman6822]

yayaseviee yesss

[@gabehyman9508]

You mean 10:50 till the end ;) sorry I'm a trumpet player so the duet is kind of a given

[@brandonshaffer5295]

I really liked 00:00 to the end more

[@gabehyman9508]

Brandon Shaffer I think 2014 show 00:00 to the end of this show are the best

[@brandonshaffer5295]

Gabe Hyman Kinetic Noise was a bit of a hiccup in the line of awesome shows in my opinion, but that's an uncommon opinion😝

[@backpacking_trombonist]

Once they get control of their tone (especially the bone solo) this will be a contender for the ring.

[@danishsaidar8674]

congratulation on winning this year's competition 👏😌

[@jubegante]

4:00 best impact in the whole show

[@g33kallday]

could you guys slow down the ballad just a tiny bit? I'm craving some more ballad

[@pfeifanddrum4610]

Keven Zhao I know right??

[@ryanbegley8108]

Keven Zhao indeed, compared to the actual song used for the ballad, the show ballad seems rushed

[@iangriffith6731]

To bad they had to face metomorph

[@FatsacksAllday]

incredible, this may just be another winner. Going to watch dci tomorrow at the rosebowl so excited! too bad blue coats wont be there.

[@kevinsolis7862]

Never clicked so fast

[@spyderrbytee]

Closer of the year, hands down

[@woldrau777]

Amen

[@mileswilliams359]

ben you could genuinely start an actual KZbin channel

[@benschaum6027]

miles williams are you saying this isn’t an actual youtube channel? lol

[@steadyrhythms9571]

Boon Schoom well, like as in videos about marching, playing, music in general.

[@williammoses5939]

absolutely incredible

[@TheSurvivalBros2]

Does Ben still play with the bluecoats? I've heard rumors that he doesn't.

[@jayfoxx5645]

ENDERDRAGON 889 no, he aged out last year but he stayed around to help them🙏🏼🙌🏼

[@scorpionkid991]

ENDERDRAGON 889 He's part of Brass staff

[@TheSurvivalBros2]

oh ok, thanks

[@treverpham7079]

This was absolutely amazing and is nothing less than impressive!!!!

[@ChrispyDude]

NOO the center sabre drop at 8:30

[@Mechtrose.]

Didn't know you guys practiced right next to my high school till this year... anyway good job, I could always hear you guys from my house.

[@samshoemaker7865]

Lol the drumline is so hyped at 11:37. I always do that after a performance, I'm just too into it.

[@clownypants2718]

whoever writes for the bluecoats has a godlike musical mind. their shit is fire every single time

[@jonathanlondon3944]

Might as well not even bother to watch any other show this year cuz they've got absolutely no chance against this. Wow.

[@badvibebryan1798]

Jonathan London knock on wood now please

[@miyalapeters2720]

blue devils do

[@tomstevens2242]

Jonathan London what do you mean in theatres

[@tylergandee5318]

Jonathan London Already beaten by SCV, Crown, and BD.

[@badvibebryan1798]

Tyler Gandee include cavies pls

[@nickr9505]

AHH!! THAT CLOSER IS SO GOOD

[@DoctorTrombone]

LOW BRASSSSSSSSSSS!!!!

[@anesuhakata6017]

this was so iconic

[@telocela]

the drill at the end with them looping around the prop all the way to the front sideline mesmerizes me. the drill is AMAZING and everything comes together cleanly at the end :') the hit at 11:12 !!!! impeccable !!!! and the way the soloist in the front merge perfectly in line with the rest of the hornline?? beautiful!!! ugh this show makes me cry every time

[@brandonpryormusic]

I'm really digging this show. Bluecoats never cease to amaze me. I do wish that prop wasn't there on the field though. Its a pretty big obstruction to those sitting low in the stands.

[@jahmallidge5115]

Such a great closer. I liked their closer in tilt but I think this one tops it.

[@positivelybianca]

Amazing show, Bluecoats!!

[@dylanj3222]

Rip the double G#:(

[@iamrycefn8130]

Why is there a dude in the back just chilling and doing all the visuals and playing but not marching?

[@jayjaylito1606]

Injured

[@sethbingo]

8:50 = best part

[@geohiker5857]

Just watched you guys in Powder Springs. You've guys have made some serious progress! Can't wait to watch you in Lucas Oil!

[@ryanbelt9991]

let's go battery

[@legokid356978]

Actually got goosebumps at the end

[@candidusbrass2848]

Lovely I like it better than downside up

[@BranMuzsick]

Love the songs! They used songs by the prog-rock band"Thank You Scientist". Incredible!

[@elipseplays3579]

7:33 Is that the mad doing the contra tuba flip there at the back?

[@trevorwelling]

Thank you so much Ben

[@brooklyn9400]

wow.

[@1049berkeley]

I know that there were good shows this year, but I felt like this show was underrated. I think the only thing that could have been better was maybe how the ballad was showcased; such a beautiful and powerful ballad. Of course, they certainly put great ballads on the field (just name a year0...2018 was just grabbed my tears every time I heard it.

[@danishsaidar8674]

so the judges also need to walk through the tunnel over there ? 😂

[@allwellallgood5947]

Coward El Nino that is exactly what i think too 😂

[@vladimirlenin1415]

This is like Tilt, Kinetic Noise, and Downside Up all in one.

[@erlynsanchezsanchez413]

Who are the two trumpet players? Is this their first year? I can't recognize them they too far

[@benschaum6027]

Ronaldo Sanchez i think they’re both returning from last year, there’s one who did a solo last year that i know of

[@kelvinvo3704]

One is Malik and the other is Rachel I'm pretty sure.

[@dustingoss9437]

Ronaldo Sanchez the trumpet soloists are Malik who is a second year vet, Alan Hester who is I think 4th year age out this year I dont know the girl she may be new and the picc. trumpet player is new as well.

[@ToUceEX]

the girls name is rachel

[@dustingoss9437]

[@jayseven6089]

[@QuesoCrunch1818]

Did ANYONE notice the tiny reference to Kinetic Noise at 4:00? Or am I just going crazy?

[@RADZADproductions]

QuesoCrunch1818 idk I hear it

[@mykelfam6984]

QuesoCrunch1818 yea that mellophone lick.
