Bluecoats 2010 Opener

Sometime around the 4th of July, waiting to start a parade, gettin reps in...

[@teeg-irl]

This is why I love the Bluecoats. You can tell these guys are just having so much fun while playing, and it makes it even more fun to watch.

[@carlitos4505]

. It's 2015 and I still love all their visuals and vocals. Lol!

[@micah_drums]

Imagine if 360 cameras existed in 2010.

[@uselessheart13]

"like a bosss!" I love Blue Coats. I swear every time I watch them, my heart pounds. I wish I was as good as Drew Guy forreal.

[@Hawaianboy808]

I love it how he just knocks drews stick away

[@itz_premium]

Matt Malabonga (ex crossmen quad drummer) shows a tutorial for the nunchuk visual thats really easy to pick up on. Took me about 10 minutes.

[@PlushChronicles]

Someone get me a napkin because that book was tasty

[@Brando_Z33]

1:16 bass drums, i lost my virginity through my ears

[@Tedtastic7]

hands down my favorite book for 2010

[@dlinekidd93]

this drumline is the prime example of how in a drum corps you can be badass and play clean while still having fun!

[@Cennor11]

Little piece at 2:25 goes hard

[@MusicalAbsinthe]

Absolute best book of 2010

[@TheNpea]

Ah! You are all so amazing!

[@henrybackes208]

That "Ya" at the nunchuck makes me crack up every time I watch this.

[@ManTheDan]

1:59 LIKE A BOSS.

[@hnoles]

This is the most beautiful thing

[@tatertot817]

drew guy is a sexy beast. :D he inspired me to learn snare and play this book. when they come to murfreesboro, my band has the option to go around and watch a corp of our choice and this year i pick the bluecoats, especially the drumline. im a guard girl, but this is exciting for me. even better cuz their opening song is our closer. :D

[@Johnnykham_]

Im plan on trying out either for Alliance or Bluecoats for baritone.

[@EastPennDrumline]

@percussiontech1 the bass visual is shown very clearly in a vid called "Bluecoats Opener Finals Night 2010" at about 2:35...the vid looks darkish....in grass...and snare lined up.....if u watch it and skip to that part...u can learn....it only took me a few times of watching it to learn it, good luck!

[@deadleyarrow1]

0:42 top left corner for those who dont know / didnt notice, ninja!

[@Johnnykham_]

I can't wait till marching season starts again. :D

[@HoontingHoonters]

Sickest vocals/visuals ever!

[@157dodgers]

snares sound so nice.

[@mcflugger]

on those buzzes bass 5's like "aww come on 1 and 2 help me out. i have VIRTUALLY NO REBOUND"

[@MusicalAbsinthe]

Absolute best boom of 2010

[@StringsofMartyr]

@snaregurl15 Yeah, that's her. Someone said she played set for Pulse in '09, too.

[@SuperFarrell13]

Tht is so awesome

[@sanantonioskates]

"Sayyy girrrrl get you're mouth away from my..." hahahaha too funny!

[@fregia54]

[@spectorkid31]

Oh my god. That bass lick at 1:16 gives me every time.

[@micah_drums]

[@stixx1492]

[@leemcd56]

[@Euph70]

Love the visual at 2:00

[@tatertot817]

@skaterfan105 nice! good luck :D what's your show this year?

[@percussiontech1]

The snare visual at 2:40 is sweet but does anyone else see the awsome bass visual too?!?!?!?

[@813Drummers]

2:40 sweet stick visual

[@be9nz]

@usster17 yes.

[@dylancjames]

@saidincontent if you look you can see that the snare to his left made him drop the stick

[@FarBoi612]

what type of sticks do the snare line use because they're sick

[@HaremCastingGamer]

Very good

[@stephws94]

@metalfan945 no they're not, they're based out of Canton, Ohio

[@tatertot817]

@skaterfan105 im on lavergne guard. :P but im in the process of drumline lessons. what do you play? since the whole band goes to DCI together, we have the option of getting our tickets early and the day of the competition, we can travel around and watch corps practice at schools before the head to MTSU. like last year, I watched Santa Clara practice all day until it was time for them to drive over to MTSU.

[@be9nz]

@snaregurl15 yeah

[@usster17]

guy thats always trying to knock drew's stick out of his hand was in pulse 09 right

[@jdu1111]

@JessOnTheRun but they beat the blue devils in perc? so i really don't think that they are so wanting to be in 4th for percussion

[@TheEmperialist]

They did in the closer =P

[@damayer92]

1:37 "He's gay....we're gay...so gay...all gay." hahaha the vocals are hilarious (there's many more). oh bluecoats drumline...i wish i could ever be that cool.

[@SMHMewzik]

I love the sound of those snurs...

[@lij2015]

@JessOnTheRun I do enjoy yamamha, I love their instruments. Dynasty not so much

[@TheDragonmaster18]

@dlinekidd93 yeah cause the other corps look bored doing what they do. these guys look like they enjoy and love doing what they do best

[@SelfSuckGiraffe]

2008, and he was 18.

[@VectorOblivion]

DAT BASS

[@157dodgers]

@schecter96 yeahh dude she knows our drum tech(: she is a boss!! saw her in the lot dang chops son!!!

[@A_Flash1992]

sick line

[@rikuantu]

didnt the guy 2 from drews left march snare blue coats 2009

[@stixx1492]

@breakdance1441 not really hard, just be prepared for the audition process by getting the respective packets and going to camps.

[@timetodie571]

yaa!!!!!

[@tsadrummer]

2:01, this dude dropped his sticks in 2 vids but I think this time the snare next to him purposely made him do that LOL . still awesome

[@DNAsxe]

which group quoted Step brothers in their show??

[@ibrokeAstick]

0:41 how can you be playing ninja in the background when the bluecoats are playing right behind you?!

[@jeremyizadorkk]

I like how his stick gets knocked out of his hand after he says "like a boss" lol

[@Johnnykham_]

@stixx1492 Is it hard to try out?

[@zRhid]

@Singliketom lol "dut dut dut YAAA dut dut"

[@shutthehellup6666]

i dont think any group would be as fun to be with ......i have never seen blue devils do something like this ( vocals) besides that one think with the hi moms a while ago

[@snakyjake9]

Hello, I am a Junior in high school interested in auditioning. I play tuba, and I play sousaphone in my school's marching band, which has a National Class title in New York. I was wondering if anyone that has played in this group before could tell me more about how good you have to be to make it into the Bluecoats. Any help is much appreciated!

[@thsdrummerguy]

haha the snare next to drew guy kept trying to knock the stick out if his hand

[@EastCoastDrum]

jersey joe and DP

[@Kenichi421]

Is it just me, or is the bass visual during the snare visual's pretty sick?

[@TheDragonmaster18]

i want to learn the way of the bluecoats

[@jsk8drummer]

@LeftyChipper shes in BD now so not anymore

[@wya168]

this is her youtube channel

[@HoontingHoonters]

@gallegosproductions hes the one right behind Nathan

[@shreddr1231]

GIRL!!!!!!!!!

[@LJLiveLV]

BD says they "max it out" but i think BC definately has the most physically demanding music and show with visuals ever!

[@JPoo9009]

I didn't audition for Bluecoats but for most drum corps its all about your work effort. Yeah talent is a factor but that can and will improve. If you aren't willing to push yourself and keep your head in the game they wont want you in their corps. Just be prepared to get your ass kicked the first camp. Even vets (though they may not admit it) will struggle keeping heavy horns up and will be just as sore as you are on Sunday. You gotta use the force and power through it.

[@phantomarsh]

@drumkid1982 haha actually they say 'girl get cho mouth away from my' and then they start playing haha

[@Xelanoux]

@DarkZeroProductionZ lol, the guy on his left actually knocked it out of his hand on his 2nd attempt check out 0:47

[@Jimmy2e_]

Wasn't Justin Lewis captain in 08?

[@JoRoHarris]

@DarkZeroProductionZ Even better than dropped! Knocked out!
