I can't even fathom the hype vocals rue Nani nah would have had to this show.

[@BrianLanders]

awesome Rue tribute vocal at 4:25, haha

[@youwilldied]

rue didn't make the vocals tho...

They're the same as last year lol

if i recall correctly, they play out of the zones for the dry short sound to fit the style of the music

[@KuroShurei]

Truly a case of basses sounding like they were played in like some software, amazing sound, timing, and spacing.

[@Brandon-zh4uw]

Does anyone know, on average, how often these top world lines tick? I heard a few rims and wondered how often all ticks are.

[@philbreton5949]

He lifts the drum up with like no struggle. Do you have any idea how heavy those are holy shit

[@OrangeAtomicRugTM]

I play tenors and they're not that heavy. It comes with practice

[@ethanpierce324]

also those tenors are balls heavy so thats kinda impressive how easilly he can set it on the harness

[@alexneagu8212]

Justin Fife Yeah I think Yamahas are generally lighter

[@nzane1216]

I'm extremely late, but the yamaha sextets aren't anywhere as heavy as Dynasty tenors, but still take a long time to get used to and can destroy you if you don't spend a lot of time with them. Of course, pearls are much lighter than Yamahas.

[@Ben-oi1np]

Unbelievably impressive, and beyond what nearly anyone can hope to accomplish. However, unfortunate that we're straying toward quantity instead of quality. Never once did drums 1 or 2 land in the sweet spots - center strikes every time.

[@DaXXPuniSHeR]

BLOOOOOO Also, the drums look much smaller this year

[@Calebhd_]

Hes wearing the go-pro on his head, last year Reuel put it on his harness so it looks smaller in this.

[@BOSSxGLITCHES]

Hey guys im not dumb ok, im playing tenor for my high school this year but ours are different from dci lol, so. When you play a "shot" on tenor, is it a shot like on snare or is it just hitting the rim in a certain spot?

[@oreo7669]

Valdroid it's pretty much like snare

[@BOSSxGLITCHES]

Silver Kunai yeah thanks i figured it out, but i made snare, tenor and bass but we had enough snares, not even tenors and i could hardly carry tenor so i took one for the team, or line, and went on bass for now:(

[@aidenbrandenburg387]

i play clarinet in my high school marching band and i've been thinking about drumline and i like the quads do you think i should switch like it there a certain technique or something

[@Mark_Aaron]

aiden brandenburg there is a certain technique for every percussion instrument like there is for your clarinet and every other instrument. But it is a lot more intricate and difficult than it seems, especially when you need perfection like you do with marching drums. Took me years to develope good technique and I'm still no where near perfect. If you wish to switch, I would get in the habit of just sitting down and practicing basic warnups for a long time before even looking at music to develope that good technique.

[@John-oc5un]

aiden brandenburg there definitely is a certain technique for quads but its not impossible to switch. I was in the exact same situation as you are in now believe it or not. I play clarinet in concert band at my high school I and switched to quads in marching band. Now I have been playing quads in marching band for 2 years and I have started to play quads in indoor percussion. My school has chop sessions with the percussion director before marching band starts to show all of the new students how to play quads/snare/bass before auditions. I was introduced to all of the basic technique needed to play quads at a high school level at these chop sessions. If there is any way to get in front of your percussion director or an experienced player that has played quads before at your school, that would be a great way to learn how to play quads and hopefully play in your school's drumline. Also, the internet is a great resource to learn basic technique. Good Luck!

[@tonyV07]

That’s what I’m sayin

[@zoryzer7413]

If he was using my schools drums he would be playing in the un tuned spot we were taught to play at the edges because thats where it was tuned. I guess. It a thing so the tenor in dci have a lower chance of missing a note so they don't have to worry about accuracy as much.

[@Mark_Aaron]

Zoryzer The accuracy matters a lot actually. Generally speaking when it comes to tenor drums, the playing areas of the drum head which are called "zones" lie between the center of the drum and the rim (but a bit more towards the rim). The "zones" are where you get the most, and usually the best sound out of the drums, as the center of the tenor drums are basically dead zones with a much lower quality of sound. But in some instances it is ok to play in the center, or "dead zone" of the drums as the sound it makes might fit the music better. This show is one of those instances as the more short and dead sounds fit more with the music than the longer and fuller sounding notes you would get out of the proper playing zone. And if you notice with your point on accuracy, they are still for the most part hitting the same general area consistently without missing. If they didn't have accuracy and missed they're intended spot it would change the sound quite a bit. But yes, 9 times out of 10 you should be playing in the proper playing zones no matter if in dci or high school marching band. It's just a matter of what sound you need for the music.

[@modify1804]

What quad drums they use??? Please tell I need for my marching band

[@michael47882]

Modify180 I’m pretty sure they are Yamaha, also along with the snares and basses

[@saltydalty7665]

5:19 is really cool not gonna lie

[@allanedwards9724]

Any idea what notes the quads are tuned to? Thanks

[@Ben-oi1np]

B, D, E, A, F#, B (Low -> High). Keep in mind, this tuning is nearly irrelevant if one plays in the center of the head like was demonstrated in this video.

[@ryanlentine4336]

Hi Ben! If you would like to demonstrate how to properly play quads the Bluecoats have auditions all over the country! I'll be at the one in Canton at the end of November, hope to see you there. Also that is not the correct tuning scheme. :)

willburr13 I've been told by band directors and leaders that they generally change heads every week. Not sure if that's true though. Wouldn't be surprising if it was.
