Carolina Crown 2018 Drumline: In The Lot

[@tim.noonan]

I like the space between the notes, and how much of it there is. Hannum killing it as usual.

[@1whoDoesSimply]

Tim Noonan that's what makes hannum's writing so underrated! I'm glad you agree. I think he connects rhythms and sets the atmosphere perfectly with his methods of notation and shaping.

[@markklaich253]

Let's also give Travis some credit to the writing too. He definitely has a huge influence on their sound.

[@captainkiwi77]

@@markklaich253 clearly. It’s been a 100% different drumline since his introduction!

[@markklaich253]

Wow I'm absolutely IN LOVE with the tuning of their drums this year. Crown drums are coming for blood this year.

[@1whoDoesSimply]

2013: had potential but cleaned the slowest, unfortunately. Not bad though 2014: was good. I dont have much of an opinion on 2014 but it's crown drums so they did great 2015: tuning was eh, but still one of my favorite lines, and i feel it was underrated; it was beautiful and badass, and it was straight *fire* *. 2016: was professional and clean and tasty. Not to say that the other years weren't professional, just that this line was absolutely tight and i feel it stood out in its own unique way. 2017: I agree with the judge's tape that the music didn't reflect the drumline's full potential but still was a very impressive book. Clean as per usual and creative. 2018: Holy shit. Dude. This is the turning point of crown's percussion reputation. Makes me wonder how they'll do by the final performance at the Lucasoil stadium. I love this theme and the emotion conveyed by the whole line. It's so fitting for the performance and i think they're absolutely gonna dominate. *pun intended

[@cat699]

HydrAquas 2007-2009 were solid years for their drum line, early call I know but I think we have the top 3 lines set for 2018 scv/BD/Cavies - crown 4/5th

[@tonionknight7472]

matt od crown has been placing first in drums at their competitions so far

[@1whoDoesSimply]

matt od imo scv didn't feel as strong as they were in 2017 for me

[@Falcon2.39-1]

HydrAquas bruh 2013 was so amazing musically

[@kswizz26]

crown's drums in 2014 were dirrrrrty but I agree with everything else

[@jaedanb]

I love. Ppl say the uniforms are going to shit but I love the orange streak floating above their hats. I also am in love w the opener

[@vincemacdrums189]

i was there, they are very intense and loud this year!

[@donnix6931]

Nice and clean like Spring 93- still one of my favorite shows ever, clean as the park for a high school line

[@braydinjones6301]

Don nix are u saying this is a high school line?

[@donnix6931]

braydin jones Have you seen Spring 93?? One of the cleanest shows ever put on the field, that being said this line here is better and more experienced than a high school line, but spring were flawless in 93

[@braydinjones6301]

Don nix gotcha just misunderstood the comment my bad.

[@donnix6931]

braydin jones crown looks really tight musically for mid-late June, I think they will have something to say in who wins it all in August

[@braydinjones6301]

Don nix yeah i agree they've really conquered some milestones this year.

[@mmmbetter55]

Those drums look soooooo sick

[@mel-px7hl]

Ok but why is no one talking about Phil‘s roll quality at 1:17?

[@subbot8077]

I literally lost my shit over this, it was amazing

[@skidsandscrewdrivers8329]

The tuning of those bass drums has me in love, definitely one of the tightest drum lines ever

[@doylehargrave233]

Thank you for using a World Class mic. It sounds surreal!

[@Cmmf_]

Looking and sounding a lot like MCM for me, in the very, *very* good way.

[@johmartylerevans7839]

New uniforms without their shakos making them look like a wgi group

[@cp_drums]

seems like every world class corp is doing the same

[@stephensmith6790]

johmar ///////// Evangelista wait...this isn't WGI?

[@stephensmith6790]

Kumquat agree

[@zachtinglan9058]

We were warming up....?

[@gnojoe6359]

2 bands at the championships I went to this weekend had a tarp on the field and just looked like wgi groups.

[@Heavyperro]

Tuning is on point. So fresh and so clean!

[@liljoe645]

best gokz in dci 2018

[@1whoDoesSimply]

These shots can kill people

[@OscarRodriguez-dp6gb]

Absolutely astounding.

[@lmaoitsmee1812]

really cool to see how the book changed over the season

[@sodanomusic]

What mic are you using for this audio?! Beautiful.

[@FloMarching]

Zoom H4n, sometimes we use the H1. Both are great for recording drums, front ensemble, and brass.

[@dylancouch7286]

I love when it echoes

[@willdibbs7106]

crown can actually drum!

[@Theduffman4333]

That was very good.

[@dakotabritton7531]

1:50

[@wyattsinclair7539]

I liked when they used clear tape. I wonder why they stopped using it

[@TheFirstAndOnlyTipsy]

I’m not a drum guy but hot damn they came for blood this season.

[@jacobsingson12_]

What happened to their 5th tenor player?

[@markfoster7882]

Hot damn.

[@l0af_o]

Killing it

[@Inevitabl3SniP3]

Deeeeeetrooittt Basketbaaaallll

[@l0xx79]

Crown is in first for percussion so far. This is a weird year.

[@jakefellerbreit9590]

Stephen!

[@Khay0sTV]

Why are the shots so loud! 😲

[@jeremyweaver5639]

Fade xChaos A combination of relaxation and velocity

[@tim.noonan]

Pavement and the building behind them certainly help

[@metalskeleton569]

Fade xChaos Crown and Crossmen always have the loudest rimshots by far

[@flip034]

What’s the youngest you can be in WGI?

[@xtwotheesee]

One scale of one to noticeable, how extreme is that right hand slice from center snare? What does it say about the sound to aesthetic ratio in DCI? -Inquisitive CrownAlumni

[@knyghtlake1345]

Nice

[@TechnoFilez]

who got the sheets

[@auslander2]

I love crowns uniforms this year. And they’re still Crown uniforms too as in someone can easily look at their uniforms and go: that’s Crown, unlike blue Devils and blue coats wtf

[@Imgrantgoes]

BD always looks like bd tf?

[@red_moon_cinema]

#Godzillapantsband

[@6oseph]

Why does this whole thing sound like a cadence

[@andrewphilippon]

Is it me or does drum four sound out of tune on those quads

[@davidfisk4735]

Stop using "in the lot", like it's some secret club or something.

[@1whoDoesSimply]

David Fisk it's a term used to describe the warmup before rehearsal or a show.

[@davidfisk4735]

"Carolina Crown drumline warmup". That's all you need. "In the lot" just sounds dorky any more.

[@tonionknight7472]

it’s been called in the lot forever

[@jameswilliams2975]

It will always be in the lot.

[@1whoDoesSimply]

David Fisk well they aint gonna stop using the term because it's described (sometimes) the place where the drumline warms up for such a long time now. It's also used in wgi.

[@stephensmith6790]

Worst crap to come out of DCI. The majority of the entire organization is putting garbage on the field.

[@linekinsey]

Stephen Smith Thanks for your opinion

[@jakebaker1051]

Did we ask?
