Hannum combines rhythms so perfectly. I love his writing. Crown did (and is doing) very well this year.

[@gsorty]

The police is coming to arrest the judges for keeping them out of top 3 in drumz. Great job this season fellas

[@penguifyer9919]

Your guys' ability to put out so many videos on finals day is quite impressive.

[@leemcd56]

Hannum books are so awesome

[@skaynekurtis]

...watching this for the 5,000th time - end of February... with summertime dreams of DCI... & INCREDIBLE musicianship like Crown -- SCV -- Blue Devils -- Bluecoats -- winter sucks!

[@Bluntermocha]

I feel like crowns percussion have found the key to becoming the most musical drumline out there, not just focused on snare splits and shit

[@JacksonArnoldMusic]

Incredibly truthful, the musicality and detail is unreal.

[@AstroMagi]

Underrated line. Some clean ass beats played straight through the drum.

[@leobeck3499]

Sean's stick trick at the beginning fire

[@pasta_heals]

Halls, Cameron

[@Queeze101]

*Seems like Travis Peterman has become an undoubtful influence at Crown when he joined the staff in '15*

[@1whoDoesSimply]

Thank you. You know whats up

[@tim.noonan]

So much of Crown’s drumline’s improvement can simply be attributed to continuity within the staff. Between 2011 and 2014 the drumline went through at least 3 techs for each section. There’s only so much improvement that can be made over 1 or 2 summers, only to have to ‘reset’ a section’s technique and philosophy. Creates a ‘hurry up and wait’ sort of phenomenon that’s hard to push through to create something cohesive between sections who are at different points within their development and how they represent the information given to them by the tech. These guys are playing stuff the lines I marched in never could’ve played. And this is year 3 of Travis at the helm. Not to mention that we’ve all heard what this line can do now, 5 years later. - Crown Drums ‘12-‘13 vet

[@abrahamnaula]

6:00 they brought back the Travis Peterman vocal haha!

[@realvdot]

Favorite book of 2017

[@tlkshowhst]

SICK BEATS.

[@francescoc9690]

Exquisite snare tuning. Bravo

[@ElementalJerk]

I would place this line at least 2nd....at least the way they're playing in this video

[@yourboymalikcoleman8731]

I agree

[@abrahamnaula]

Mac is a boss, he shows that stick trick to everyone 😅

[@bsmuds]

Very nice

[@BrunsonEntertainment]

Still WATCHING 🔥

[@jhawk3303]

Nice!!!

I see Academy's old center snare in there lol.

[@RB-vi2ty]

Damn. Dope beats. Sounds like UMASS stuff.

[@JorgeLopez-yb1ct]

+Vic Firth Marching How come there are no more full shows on your channel anymore?

[@vicfirthmarching]

They'll be coming out within the next week!

[@lolnajiman8402]

What the quads play at 1:06 sounds like Star Wars

[@treverlisonbee9437]

The police in the background are there for Mike Stevens fun fact

[@cheffpremierbeats]

Sean Flippin Mac

[@Tomruocco]

why are some of the quads belly plates upside down lol

[@Ben-ff8fg]

some people find it more comfortable that way, especially if you wear it low. it's designed to work either way.

[@michaelengle9062]

amazing hands! I'm an old tenor guy...I'd never have kept up with these guys. nice to see more ergonomic set ups. back in the 80's, the rims were about nipple-height. wondering about the RM carriers though...looks like a lot of adjustment points that could potentially loosen and be a pain, especially that one just above the belly plate. do they hold up pretty well in everyday use?

[@michaelrobertsonjr.2628]

lol no

[@tim.noonan]

I had an instructor claim that Randall May told him to spray his carriers with Loc-Tite if he didn’t want all the adjustable parts to loosen… really great way to make sure you can never adjust anything on them ever again. He seems like a tool.

[@caydenasher9874]

Why is the belly plate on the 2 tenors flipped upside down?

[@Jimmy2e_]

Body shape, mostly. It was more comfortable for them to wear it upside down so it didn't mess with their hips

[@madprogamer4076]

Is the black tenor from crown 2015?

[@ethanboulanger9984]

Mad Pro Gamer correct

[@THEFOXDOG01]

Anyone have music to the opener

[@chaseblum3311]

Yes

[@parkourchrispk]

How come I can’t find any transcriptions of CC snare this year?

[@1whoDoesSimply]

Same

One Who Does Simply lothype.com

[@samarthvohra4391]

nobody saw the 2 of the tenors had their pad for their harness upside down

[@gabefittante2778]

This is actually a thing, so people with smaller hips can flip the plate upside down so it's more ergonomic

[@samarthvohra4391]

@@gabefittante2778 I figured. That’s something I would do

[@franciscoecheverria3531]

How come the last two tenors in 1:02 have their harness thing upside down?

[@jamesyung4966]

Francisco Echeverria cause Randle May harnesses . That’s why

[@1whoDoesSimply]

Can someone transcribe 2:05?

[@1whoDoesSimply]

Nevermind found the sheets

[@jakethesnake2264]

Why is that one quad player's stomach plate for their harness upside down?

[@ianfowler124]

jake thesnake hes probably so skinny the edge of the stomach plate digs into his hipbone area and the middle doesnt sit on his stomach area. mine does that

[@OphilliaBalls]

jake thesnake I’ve wondered the same. I’ve only seen girl snares do that

[@theunknowndrummer1209]

@@OphilliaBalls well they do that for a *different* reason

[@dogado4255]

Nice like and dislike number

[@jacksonweinberg3544]

disappointingly easy bok for where they were in the standings, which explains why its clean but this easy at this leve should be way cleaner

[@martyfore7163]

You do know there’s more to a percussion score other than how hard your book, right?

[@jacksonweinberg3544]

Marty Fore if your book is this easy at third place you should be much cleaner, i know it's not about how hard it I'd but the only excuse for them to play like this is if their music was harder

[@martyfore7163]

hitting_things_with _broken_trees they actually got 4th in drums but that's besides the point. They scored well because they executed really well on the field. The maturity and cohesiveness of their sound as a full battery is, to me, the reason that crown drums were so successful. You also have to consider the front as well and the crown's front ensemble definitely helped the whole percussion section achieve the scores that were given. I guess you're entitled to your own opinion though.

[@yoyu822]

book is boring this year

[@yoyu822]

LOL my opinion is false? please explain how thats valid. i usually love crown writing but its just boring to me this year

[@ImEverythingYouCrave]

Brian Kim Go watch the MemeDevils drumline if you think this is boring. Yes my pfp is the blue devils logo so what

[@j.cordero6965]

He can have his own opinion! I usually like Crowns writing, but this year I felt that it was just a little weaker. But they are definitely playing cleaner, sorta reminds me of Star of Indiana and their simplistic but powerful book.

[@BagChatters10]

Brian Kim legend of a two eyed soldier was difficult to sit through

[@jaqwillin]

I agree with crowns book being nice. But scouts.... Nahhh
