Cadets:The Zone

The Cadets 2005 Show

[@archanea-8862]

Liquid is such an amazing piece wow

[@TWBaltz]

I don't know why but even when they have poor corography, they're good. I am a huge Cadets fan and always will be. I hope they stop those narrations soon though.

[@bigntasty43]

Haha. When she's gets to the door. "Don't do it!" "Don't do it!" "DO IT!" "Don't do it!" *Rings doorbell* "We're Coming!" DCI fans are the best.

[@highstimulation2497]

did somebody really say that omg, I've heard this like 10,000 times and haven't noticed that wow

[@highstimulation2497]

omg, I'm SUCH an idiot, this is quarters, not finals, laugh out loud.

[@MinkyBoodle44]

1:13 "I'm coming!"

[@RHCPDMBxxx33]

You know those first few narrations when he says "you will lock this door with the key of imagination..." its a direct quote from the song twilight tone/twilight zone never noticed it before

[@qu0dlb3t]

They really should have tried to imitate Rod Serling's voice during that beginning narration, because it kinda kills it. But no hate, overall, this is a crazy opener

[@TheMonty135]

Look at that unique, modern twist to the Cadet Uniform. I guess changes to uniform!s aren't all bad!!!! GO cadets 2011!!

[@LpZil91]

Liquid is based on Eric Whitacre's "Equus", if anyone wanted to know

[@highstimulation2497]

wait, double take WHAT?! (is it another case of them not wanting to buy the rights to something, so they had a similar piece arranged? (which is apparently exactly what happened with the closer of this very show, (They wanted Medea, from Star 93, but went with a tune in the same vein called "False Mirrors" by the brass arranger, wonderful guy he is.

[@coppingenh]

I agree this show is amazing, but if you love The Cadets...check out some shows when they were called Garfield Cadets. OH MY FREAKIN GOD!! Just watch like 80-98...it may take a couple days but you will be glad you did!

[@wilsonkm]

I forgot....I had to great privilege of marching with some of those people in that show (and go to school with them too). FHNSAB...

[@TecHDynamic]

DONT OPEN THAT FUCKING DOOR

[@TrumpetHero15]

@TheReaperRose Liquid was composed by Jay Bocook just for the Cadets to perform in 2005. Bocook is on the Cadet's staff.

[@stevencasado478]

the bari soloist is one of the instructors for my HS' Marching Band, the man is brilliant!

[@TheDbgtfan23]

Lol steven

[@TacRandom]

Apparently he marched seven years of Cadets, he started when he was 14. Pretty insane.

[@TheDbgtfan23]

Xplorer yeah he went to our highschool. Had a ring his freshman year

[@Ryan-dz7mg]

BlueRhino23 what high school

[@keyowilson5695]

@@TacRandom 8 years, 2000 to 2007. 2 Gold, 2 Silver, 2 Bronze, and 2 finals medals.

[@eagle92190]

I think its around the 8th minute, but its toward the end that sounds like triplets, its from the movie Vertigo. It's a vibe part and its sooo friggin awsome the crazy thing is that its not triplets its actually 8th notes. We played it for the opener and our show and got 4th place in the state...yeahh

[@wilsonkm]

I'm so glad we went back to the real uniforms last year (yeah, I marched last year). And I LOOOOOVE old-school Garfield Cadets. I'd have to say that my favorite show from the 80s would be 1987. From the 90s would probably be 1992, 1996-98.

[@podTWM]

Phantom's great, n' all, but this is, in my opinion, the best DCI show ever.

[@AllStater09]

@motomachirox yes bad feedback. ALOT of people gave bad feedback when they broadcasted their performance on ESPN. The problem was the coverage they got on their show didn't give them a chance to tell what the show was about. People just started talking bad because of the short 5 minute excerpt they showed on espn. That's what I ment by bad coverage. Not the corps! AND YES! one of the high rated shows of all time

[@ikshields]

All very emotional, but you haven't said a word about WHY narration "doesn't belong" in DCI and somehow lessens the kids' experience, or WHAT exactly your beef with WGI is, so it's pretty hard to take your comments seriously. Sounds like you're the one who's all personal agenda, and you don't at least have an artistic one to justify it. Score: Hopkins 3, You 0.

[@AllStater09]

well the narration here didn't bother me much, it was 2006 that got to me. It was just uhhh.... never mind that's a whole different show, this show rocked

[@Jedispeed]

from what I recall this was quarters....you're right, this show wasn't the 99.15. U gotta get the DVD to see that one

[@lalalaproductions1]

Liquid! -3

[@JamesClarkJacace]

gorgeous sound.

[@Ted_Swayinghill]

I wonder if they would bring the Classic "Z-pull" back with one of their shows....

[@AllStater09]

oh wow, well pretty late but congrats on winning world champs that year... and yes that day was really cool. can't beat the hot south texas weather...lol

[@buzzerbeater9000]

Their opener is a piece from Kill Bill.

[@UofTCadet]

Just a bit of trivia and so everyone knows...the right foot step off came from 1985. Profanation had so much mixed meter that they were having trouble with direction changes and stepping off in general. The staff tried switching it to right foot and it worked so well that they kept it from then on.

[@highstimulation2497]

ah yes, I know a guy who was in that. he says "I marched The Mixed-Meter Show From Hell."

[@Ted_Swayinghill]

@AllStater09 The Z-pull is one of the Cadet's signature drill moves made by the great late George Zingali Check out the Cadet's 1983 show to see the Z-Pull the drill that Zingali designed for the corps he worked with were ahead of their time! I've heard stories he also verbally told each member or section where to go in each drill...That man was a GENIUS!!!!

[@AllStater09]

yes it is, I think the 2003 BD show was underscored, but ehh

[@AllStater09]

with all due respect, this show is exactly the same in caliber as the cavaliers 2002 show. The reason why it's gotten so much bad feed back is because of the bad tv broadcast it was given. If you could see this show from the high cam, OH WOW!!! it's just mind blowing. I was just like you wondering why it got such a high score. But my friend who bought the dvd, showed me the high cam of FINALS night and wow, just wow. This show does match the cavaliers 2002 show.

[@brown55061]

Nobody said narration reduces the kids' experience or that WGI is a bad thing. WGI shows dont belong on a field. When all you have is the pit to color the drumming, you need narration and theater to make a show. But DCI shouldn't need it with 135 horns, a guard and 30 drummers. The fans that BOO these kids are losers but narration is not furthering the activity, its losing the Cadets fans. THAT is my point. Narration is not more artistic, you've forgotten what the "music games" are!

[@brown55061]

George already knows why people hate talking, the vets from forever ago until now dont like it. So basically 90% of the fanbase dislikes it yet they swim against the current just to prove a point. The goal of this activity is to provide kids with an experience, not deal with personal agendas. Musically the Cadets are always outstanding but this WGI crap doesnt belong in DCI.

[@AllStater09]

@JeremysBugles if that's so, how come they placed 3rd this past year? come on just because cadets are different doesn't mean they suck. They have 75 freak'n years behind them. They have the right to do what ever they want. Once you become a world reknown corp you can't settle for anything mediocre, you have to challenge and challenge

[@RBVTBONE]

@CriticalThreatTV I was whistling it at school and people asked me why I whistling the thing from Kill Bill and I had never seen that movie and I stupidly said, "No, it's from the Cadets 2005 "The Zone!" and that got me all confused haha so yeah

[@AllStater09]

I know this may be random but was his name by any chance kevin? Cuz my band went to a camp of their in 05 and we were with 3 Kevins from the baritone line...lol, yeah they were like best buds

[@supercellcoaster]

IMO this isn't quite as epic as the other 99.15. I mean it's clean and technically everything is basically perfect, but the overall effect of Frameworks just seemed cooler.

[@thesousabone]

No they're hardcorps.......lol

[@keyanpowell927]

2:30

[@Shaneomac1202]

haha, nishihara? the japanese high school marching band? they would do well in boa but certainly not top tier div 1 drumcorps.

[@coolcooja]

@thsma2009 they just said to play like eight on a hand to check to see if my technique was good and to see if i could play poly rhythms

[@peytonjmusic]

never seen a baritone sound that awesome

[@thomaslehmanbaritone]

Thats their style. It always has been. Not sure what's so interesting about it.

[@Jedispeed]

judging shouldn't really every take opinion into account

[@colinkelly1535]

This has to be one of the oldest dci videos on youtube

[@flurplepurp]

Why is the dislike button even an option for this vid?

[@soundwave8842]

show is so fucking clean.

[@lucasb3462]

Hey I was born this year

[@AllStater09]

sorry but what's a z-pull?

[@kokonuts5245]

2:31

[@chickensouplover516]

its bernard herrman

[@ikshields]

Australopithicus.

[@bassque]

Amen.

[@Prodebrio]

@molecular360 I think its spelled taste,, I like the theatrical themes they used to have sorry. im not you

[@ikshields]

Total agreement that narration is not necessarily more artistic. Yet I'm playing Devil's Advocate here, because it seems every time I thought I disliked some category of thing, somebody spins around and does it in a way that knocks me out, so it appears I only disliked particular predecessors. I might also suggest a challenge: what if the vocals were not amplified electrically? (Say, limited to natural megaphones, etc?) And what about singing and musical speech (scat, etc)?

[@AllStater09]

It was the one deep in south texas, at McAllen High School. Poor guys were tired, but dang they were smart. It was pretty funny, cuz they introduced them selves and we laughed cuz we thought they were kidding but they weren't. lol, ahh one of the best days of my life. and that's cuz it was raining

[@supercellcoaster]

@AllStater09 Yeah my new band director who marched DCI in 04 and 05 showed me the finals night DVD. It WAS pretty awesome. I still don't like the narration and stuff much, but the show is much much better then.

[@NibbleSnarph]

@coolcooja yea i did too i made the cadets this year and had to back out because of school and SAT stuff, i had a 2nd bari spot

[@alexcart7]

@ctjbonner that isn't correct. In 2005 there were Euphs, and other seasons when Gino has a change of heart.

[@NibbleSnarph]

@alexcart7 hmmmm didnt know that but im pretty sure that was still a bari on the solo but nice to know :)

[@NibbleSnarph]

@coolcooja its all good, and there definitely wasn't any euphs at the camps, i really wanted to march this summer

[@coolcooja]

@thsma2009 lol I hear you. I'm going to try aux percussio, rack, and cymbals for teal sound's world class drumline.

[@FromTheChaosOfLife]

@CriticalThreatTV dude yes! right when i heard it i knew it was kill bill, i now want the score haha

[@AllStater09]

@Moog167 ahhh, that's the z-pull, well I've seen it before, lol... just never knew it had a signature name

[@coolcooja]

@ctjbonner I'm going to try to make a winter drumline so that it would prepare me for dci

[@NibbleSnarph]

@coolcooja nope cadets dont march euphs too hard to tune, they just use baris

[@Prodebrio]

@bmascara34 The drum break was gay

[@coolcooja]

@ctjbonner ahhhh you're right, now that I notice it, it's not as long as a euph

[@SuperMANgino]

Some of the music is from Kill Bill

[@coolcooja]

@ctjbonner Awesome solo, even though I'm pretty sure that was a euphonium

[@coolcooja]

@ctjbonner I want to march DCI so bad! It would be cymbals though lol

[@Prodebrio]

Cadets got boring in 09

[@Jedispeed]

oh ok, so then you saw the on with almost no errors

[@coolcooja]

@thsma2009 I'm doing rack for infinity now :D

[@AllStater09]

wait? you marched '05 cadets?

[@TheReaperRose]

Where is Liquid from? A movie?

[@emmcad7431]
