New Zealand Girl Reacts to CAROLINA CROWN 2014 | OUT OF THIS WORLD 🌎

[@CourtneyCoulston]

Thanks everyone for tuning in! Stay tuned for the two more DCI videos this week! 🤩🤩

[@StevenJRoosa]

Look forward to them sweetie.❤🇺🇸💯

[@garpog2458]

Plz react to high school marching bands like CTJ marching band 2019 2020 or 2017 woodlands 2020, leander 2019 or Vandegrift band 2019.

[@alijahkennedy1739]

Your welcome 🙏

[@1johncabs]

Courtney: The show actually depicts a manned orbital spaceflight from lift-off to zero-gravity spacewalk and peril then re-entry and spashdown. The Crown form melts into a "capsule" form at the end. Hope this helps.

[@johnrobcrosthwait]

You're absolutely amazing. Please watch Madison Scouts 2011 (at least the closer) ❤️

[@trentfloyd5763]

This is the fastest I've clicked for one of Courtney's videos in a while. This show is so great and Crown really killed it. Now who all missed the snare drummer losing his drum and the judge picking it up @ 8:30 in the video? But as always amazing video and I can't for the other two videos!

[@elijahcrosby786]

i saw the thumbnail and IMMEDIATELY clicked for that reason

[@pinstripe5487]

Oh this is THAT show. Omggg.

[@Ganon136]

If you want to learn the whole story behind that, WCU put out a video about 7 years ago where both the drummer and judge talk about what was going through their minds during those moments. It’s a really cool video you should watch.

[@blue-jy]

i also love how it was directly at the resolution of the musical phrase

[@iandoepp6323]

There are a couple things I'd really like to point out about this show. I know its already been said a few times, but at 8:29 you can see one of the snares drop their drum and watch at 8:45 the judge run it back to him. It's funny cause the enormous applause that happens at that moment could either be for the brass impact or the guy getting his drum back :P. Also, I'm not sure if you noticed, but at 6:40, all the low brass is actually playing trumpets; so the whole hornline is trumpets and mellophones. It's super impressive that they had to learn a completely different instrument than what they're used to and still be proficient at it.

[@EBG...]

Damn i didn't even know that last part

[@iandoepp6323]

@@EBG... yeah, that's my favorite part of the show :)

[@Lacheddar1990]

Yea the high brass feature is absolutely nuts. Crown is always doing such demanding things and the fat judges are always so confused and have no idea whats going on. That's why they get screwed in competition every year. The show is just never rewarded for the demand. You have BD sitting in chairs and standing still most shows and they get top 2 every year. Carolina crown is the most snubbed corps in DCI. so sad

[@Cmmf_]

@@Lacheddar1990 i know this talking about it in general but BD 2014's drill besides the ballad was demanding af, I think the Ott should've gone to crown but it would've been real close

[@Lacheddar1990]

@@Cmmf_ Yea 2014 BD was amazing. Every section was amazing, but watch the last minute of the show. Usually this is the part where corps are running and playing or have some sort of crazy drill move and BD is stationary for an entire minute. prolonged Simultaneous demand isn't their forte. They have great show designers, but some of the most boring finishes in DCI history. Standing still on the front sideline.

[@justinblackman8523]

Fun fact: the metal things the drumline was playing on before the loud brass impact are car mufflers!

[@etchris]

That’s my favorite part of the show!

[@12valkyer]

Such a random thing that turned out pretty beautifully

[@macerunner4674]

They sound so cool

[@pickletm3336]

2014 was a stacked year for DCI

[@tavianrobledo6481]

The best year for DCI

[@the1aj39]

Either 14 or 11

[@drumcorpshunter535]

1999 and 2008 were also great years for DCI.

[@christopherwilliams5656]

It really was.. seeing BD ‘14, Bloo ‘14, and Crown ‘14 all in one day, all I can say is wow

[@drumcorpshunter535]

@@christopherwilliams5656 Great shows top to bottom. 2014 Blue Knights and SCV need to be talked about more often.

[@michaelmoon622]

The most underrated Crown show

[@benjaminli188]

I think the most underrated modern Crown show would definitely either be this one or 2017. Both were amazing, they're just not talked about enough.

[@drumcorpshunter535]

2007 and 2008 Crown are also very underrated

[@aubreyricher9827]

this was the year after their championship win with the E=MC2 show you had seen before and to me it felt like they really just continued their momentum from that show to have a great follow up. And i think i say this on almost all your DCI video's but your reactions to some of those high moments, that give you goosebumps, it's amplified by like 100 live and i can't wait for you to see that.

[@jacobbennett6884]

This was a great followup. It sucks that 2014 was such a stacked year because a bunch of shows definitely deserved a higher placement

[@cadet8376]

Yeeeeeeeeesssss! This show is so good!

[@CourtneyCoulston]

yasss ❤️❤️

[@noahtaylor6374]

Fun fact: This is the only show in DCI history to receive a perfect brass score

[@MrJacobtc]

I’ve never clicked so fast in my life! That closer is top tier!!!

[@cocoafox]

so appreciate you still doing dci reactions from time to time even though they might not get quite as many views as your other content :) hope you reach 100k soon!!!

[@bradygehlert4797]

For those who don't understand just how impressively they play. Imagine if you will getting a group of 25 people to clap together. They all have to clap at the same volume, in the same spot on the hand, at the exact same time. And then on top of that keep clapping differing intervals. All of this while running around in circles. If they don't all sound like one person clapping then you failed.. Take that group of 25 and combine it with the other 3 groups of 25 or less who are doing different clapping patterns, make it sound good. That's basically what this is.

[@ryanmele8159]

I don’t blame you at all because you haven’t played these instruments or participated in Drum Corps but trust me what the kids in all these shows are doing is absolutely ridiculous. They have hours and hours of practice a day everyday for months and this stuff would be impossible without it. Good stuff Courtney!!

[@kylew8837]

Courtney this DCI video was amazing i was blown away all the movements were on point and really sync, love u soo much please keep the content coming u are the best (:

[@frankflores1518]

I LITERALLY GET SO EXCITED EVERY TIME I SEE A NEW DCI REACTION FROM YOU ON MY FEED COURTNEY!!! Keep up the great work love the videos!!!

[@markalusss]

Ive never clicked a video so fast. Ive been WAITING. For you to react to this! 😩 I knew you’d love this show. The shapes they make on the field is called drill FYI. But you articulate what you see very well.

[@vincevan15]

i love your videos. it warms my heart to see how wgi and dci has touched a stranger to the activity, always look forward to your posts

[@stinkysofiaaaa]

omg i’ve waited for sooo long! i love this show

[@rogueseven]

Fun fact: if you watch the drumline running backwards after their feature, you can see one of the snare drummers drop their drum and one of the judges picks it up and runs it to him! What a lad coming to the rescue! 👏

[@CDev15]

Notice how the music syncs up with that whole situation. Big hit when he gets his drum back

[@robpena9152]

So no ones gonna tell her about what happened at 8:30 ? So basically a snare drummers drum fell off his carrier and the tenor drummer almost tripped over it. Luckily that didnt happen, and the judge picked the drum up for him and gave it to him like 20 seconds later maybe. Its a really iconic moment and the real credit goes to the judge since he basically saved the drummers last performance of his DCI career as this was his age-out year.

[@adrianayala3692]

One of my favorites. I used to do a lot of improv to this show music when I first started doing color guard. 😄💙💜 I was a big dci geek 🤓😂

[@pete6099]

Love this interpretation of one of themes from the show LOST

[@RateOfPenetration]

The song is called “Life and Death” and this variation is from the very end of “The End” when Jack touches the coffin

[@stinkysofiaaaa]

there were quite a few mistakes in the show, but i wish they got higher than fifth :(

[@hunterbraun5273]

You should definitely watch crown 2008.

[@jenniestevens7899]

Absolutely!

[@casonthecat5028]

one of the BEST openers

[@malainawilson9492]

Fun fact: the closer to this show is actually a brass piece labeled “Vitae Aeternum” and it’s my personal favorite brass piece of all time.

[@paulmartin2348]

They were pretty awesome but your reaction is even better. Love watching you get excited girl. Never stop being fun and stay safe. :)

[@dankelly1426]

Don't forget how at the beginning, the DM saluted the crowd with a Spock hand greeting.

[@nickniehaus1763]

I did not know that!

[@pshore73]

Hopefully, you caught the subtle change to the original lyric. Original "Ground control to Major Tom" Performed "Crown Control to Major Tom"

[@wsperger7387]

Can't wait until you're able to see a live show

[@MrDstyle09]

Hey Courtney Thanks for doing another DCI video I really enjoy your reactions to these kinds of videos! I can't wait to see the other videos this week! Great reaction Courtney I love how excited you get when you react to these kinds of videos! 🥁🎶🎵🎷🎺📯🎶🕺🕺

[@EvOxMaKoTo]

It's such an iconic show!!!

[@stopanthony5740]

I literally just got done watching this show and then you post this, what a coincidence 😳

[@richbrass12]

I was looking to see if Courtney saw the snare that fell off right before the ballad. It was so smooth that she missed it. Hell I missed it the first time.

[@BRUXXUS]

I think the last time I saw this show was literally at the Mustang OK show that year, lol. I like it, but didn't grip me the same way 2013 did. There's a lot in this I absolutely LOVE. The drill, *chef's kiss* outstanding! (I'm a drill writer, so this looked super fun to write). The brass book was ungodly hard, and they probably pulled it off better than any other corps could, especially with the insane drill and movement. Guard weapons, man.... some of the cleanest, if not cleanest I've ever seen. Percussion is kind of outside of my wheelhouse, but I love the creativity with equipment and instruments to create super cool textures and colors. The only part I just didn't really love was the ballad. Didn't really give me the feels like I want a ballad to. And, while I understand the guard designers want to show off how well they can move and dance, I really just wanted to see the whole field covered in double swing flags to amp up the visual side to the power of the hornline. Although, I'm always a sucker for double swings. :P

[@manxkin]

Beautifully organized chaos. WOW! Incredible artistry and musicianship. Listen to those horns! Percussion and guard!!!

[@pseudoname777]

As someone who marched DCI and was a part of World Class Finals (Blue Knights) I like your videos because the enjoyment you have in watching them, as a non member. Like a pseudo-validation for the activity. I freakin love dci and wgi

[@efraingarcia3897]

My all time favorite from Carolina crown!!! Yes!

[@Lacheddar1990]

perhaps the trampolines are black holes? ;) Also, The audio around the 6 min mark is actually pilot audio from an encounter with a UFO. 12:10 to the end for the brass is maybe the most technical thing in dci history especially with the drill.

[@gavin_bigred]

Easily one of the most underrated shows. The guy that suggested it was beyond right

[@vjay4461]

This is imo one of the most underrated shows in recent history, 5th place really didn’t do it justice

[@breaddies3610]

This show is absolutely insane. Imo, one of the most impressive shows ever

[@paddockeric2151]

I agree! Just so technically awesome! If the guard had been a little better this year they probably would’ve scored better but still one of my favorite shows.

[@samsignorelli]

This was when Crown learned how difficult it is to successfully defend your first championship the following season. The only corps to have done that were 73-74 SCV, 76-77 BD, and 83-84 Cadets (damn it, since that was the year I MARCHED BD!). 72 Kingsmen, 75 Madison, 91 Star, 92 Cavies, 96 Regiment (in a tie), 08 Regiment (solo win), 13 Crown, and 16 Bluecoats did not repeat the following season.

[@veot.2869]

@@samsignorelli A lot of that had to do with politics. However, in 1992 (that was my era) Star chose to do a 'lesser' show because the theme of it was American Variations. It was not as complex a show as the previous two years. The following year they placed 2nd and chose to leave the activity. Crown was up against some strong comp the year they placed fifth and their GE score suffered all year long because of the trampolines.

[@samsignorelli]

@@veot.2869 I would agree with you, but for one thing....Star was going to leave after 93 anyway. The contract with Canadian brass was signed BEFORE the 93 season. They did NOT "take their ball and go home" after taking 2nd in 93. Please stop perpetuating that.

[@joshsalmons1867]

Finally thanks! I knew you would love this one from the creativity. They were the defending champs this year and I think placed 4th. During the frisbee brass feature everyone was playing either a mellophone or trumpet. Multi talented if you ask me.

[@drumcorpshunter535]

They placed 5th. SCV placed 4th

[@gunner-qf9eh]

That's what makes BD and Crown so freaking talented. BD also had all their mello's on trumpets that same season during the 40 trumpet fanfare in their Felliniesque opener.

[@haleynae9597]

I've never watched this show before, but I was pleasantly surprised! I'm more of a Blue Devil's fan but these guys are amazing. My drum tech last year played for the Blue Devils in '18 and he said that everyone(at least in drumline) had to march and play the full show by themselves. I'm not sure if these guys did that, but it definitely proves that they work their asses off to be that good!!

Love your videos and reactions! Since you've done such an amazing job with military videos, I wanted to recommend a video that is very near and dear to my heart: USS Wisconsin - The Last Battleship. It's about 27 minutes long and the audio quality isn't 100 percent. But what makes it special are a couple of things: 1. It literally was the last US battleship (World War II) era to be in service, getting decommissioned in the early 90s. 2. I served on board her in 1990-1991 and it's where I went from being a high school grad to a man. 3. A World War II era battleship serving -- effectively -- in the "modern" area is impressive on its own. 4. 16 inch guns. Watch and you'll know what I mean. Good news, too, is that the Wisky is now a museum in Norfolk, VA.
