[@drumpak]

shit man things have changed a lot since 2011. my high school won PSA in 2010 and since then i havent really kept up with the scene at all. but the writing, the musicianship, the whole thng has just grown in the best way. im really impressed by these shows this year

[@brothaNblue]

Wow. Small world. I was in the group that won PIA in 2010.

[@drewwlee]

Watchh 2017 showss, pulse bc and mcm

[@firecross625]

Pulse always has the best story shows. I'm an X and RCC stan, but this shit is something else

[@CalvinLipetzky]

Matt Corby - Brother For those of you looking for the song.

[@Queeze101]

WGI, won by orphans. Anything is possible.

[@user-il6ei7mh5o]

One of the best shows I have seen in years. Impressed.

[@DDRsensation]

This is officially among one of my favorite openers thus far.

[@genovevahernandez4207]

Just practice a lot. my son e was performing. I was there . "good performance". All groups are good but this pit is amazing. Award with first pace 2016.

[@cloevasquez]

I love the song that this is based on. I think the visuals at the beginning and throughout the show make it a stronger show overall. The prop use was interesting and I liked the acting from the visual performer. I also really liked the music writing for the front ensemble.

[@alexgaeckle1540]

What's the name of the song it's based on?

[@EthanMooreMusic]

i think its brother by matt corby@@alexgaeckle1540

Whoa! Your name’s revealed!

[@ryanwest159]

2:19 is the best part in any show this season

[@anthonyvasquez2701]

I’m adopted so this show is special to me.

[@Limeray25]

slightly upset there was no credit given to choreo cookies because this show was obviously heavily inspired by their set... but with that said this was LITTTTTT and cymbal feature

[@KobaCrawls]

Fruitliups Credit WAS given. On their Facebook they give inspirational credit several times.

[@kaiyagulack6566]

fuck yea cymbal feature !! that was sick as hell also that cymbal toss 👀👀

[@maxalvarado726]

6:16 quad solo is so fucking sick

[@powerfulking500]

Max Alvarado that shot was intense

[@patrickcloaninger5707]

This was my second favorite show behind The Alpha from Rhythm X but it definitely deserved to win. My group didn't get out of PSA prelims XD

[@michae12320734]

awwww i know that feeling lol TB

[@ECU_Gaming128]

Dang. Who did you perform with?

[@michae12320734]

[@chrissalazar7650]

Anyone got tips for a brass player wanting to march cymbals in a winter drumline ?

[@jagerlocke9085]

The shot at 2:40 tho 😍😍😍

[@MrTyranitar15]

1:50 to 2:00 reminds me a bit of their 2014 show.

[@chantelleanonuevo8926]

1:46 🔥

[@Shelby51423]

What's the song at :35?

[@NTnutterfudge]

I learned 90% of this show, Took me hours since I didn't have any sheet music, but I feel good about it. No way i'll ever audition though since I'm all the way in Florida. Only part I can't play is Terry's solo(I can play it just not up to tempo.) and 3:00 - 3:16 if only I had a proper instruction on it I could probably do it. (Snare btw)

[@wei-anhsieh2853]

Ur shitting me you learned 90% of the show without music

[@dylaninconfidence]

Audition for infinity or stryke

[@brendantjeerdsma492]

What tips do you guys have if I want to be a part of a pit like that.

[@PulsePercussionOfficial]

+Brendan Tjeerdsma Practice, an open mind and the willingness to learn new things. Hope to see you at auditions!

[@brendantjeerdsma492]

+Pulse Percussion Sure, see ya in a few years. I need some more 4 mallet education. especially for learning Steven's grip. taught Burton's, but it can't cut do most of the stuff you guys do.

[@brothaNblue]

Don't wait too long to do it.

[@brendantjeerdsma492]

BrothaNBlue2​ Got it

[@noname35698]

practice

[@drakey9658]

I'm playing / struggling with 5th bass in my winter line so I'm watching wgi to see what the pros look like, does anyone have any tips?

[@ECU_Gaming128]

Just practice as much as you can. If you can get a teacher. Metronome, metronome, metronome. Build your strength up. Try to learn some features or shows by ear.

[@ECU_Gaming128]

And keep practicing your marching

[@jacobkeppler1984]

They sound great

[@krisgarcia1711]

[@tickcaller9048]

1:10 there is a gap between that

[@cameronthomas1729]

Does anyone have their 2015 show????

[@michae12320734]

go to box six website, find the show

[@jonathanmorgan3197]

Fuck me the bass drum run was litt

[@kylegardner9240]

annie?

[@safteytorch]

Question, didn't you guys start the season with 5 quads?? I don't need like an explanation, I was just wondering

[@jayrod115]

+safteytorch Yeah they did, one of the guys quit early season.

[@Icyysenpaiii]

+Jared Brock do you know why?

[@jayrod115]

I am not sure. I'm good friends with all the Pulse guys and they're not too sure either, but most likely a personal/family issue.

[@mikecantlin4836]

Anybody know what song is used throughout the show?

[@brycebutton4949]

+Mike Cantlin its called "Brother" (what a coincidence)

[@mikecantlin4836]

+Bryce Button thank you

[@chrisredacted4797]

Sleep for friends

[@eriktheginger99]

6:00 the orphans are revolting

[@islaruiz4741]

Who is the center marimba?

[@Anagu893]

ERIC

[@Andy251153]

Isla Ruiz Erick Urbina!

[@Choju323]

Goals

[@malikutara]

Fucking crazy awesooommmeee!!! 😭😭😭😭

[@julianbanks9568]

I'm a huge RCC fan and preferred their book over Pulse but the execution and the story behind this show was sick! Good Job Pulse!

[@j3nn_3d]

Julian Banks The concept wasn't entirely theirs. A dance group used the song, color theme and overall concept at vibe in 2015, I believe. It is cool seeing the concept performed in a completely different medium, though. :)

[@LivingTuBig]

Ok...choreo cookies much..?

[@Icyysenpaiii]

not really

[@jordanalfaro9410]

+Chris Nott if you look at Pulse Percussion on Facebook. You will see that the Cookies video was part of the inspiration for the show

[@NTnutterfudge]

Sure it's the same, but It's not like they didn't develop anything onto the idea. Everybody needs to start somewhere.

[@anthonyvasquez2701]

Credit was given to them over FB.

[@brandonminor190]

this show rocks and they really sounded good. The basses body movement at 1:35 is pretty sloppy for them...maybe a brain fart from nerves or something...eh, still a great show!!!

[@johnolson5538]

Boring... I mean brother.

[@Kelsphere12]

wow...way to steal the entire choreo cookies routine. does pulse percussion have no shame? or are they that desperate to win that they will steal other people's ideas and call it their own....smh

[@drewboss8376]

Well golly gee, Mr. Professional, why don't you tell me how many first place WGI medals you have won?

[@joshdeland3664]

The ENTIRE routine?!? What are you talking about? They replicated about 15 seconds of it. Also, this is a completely different medium. This is not a fucking dance competition like the Cookies were in. It's an indoor percussion show. You can't look at 15 seconds of choreography and say "wow Pulse stole their entire fucking show!" You also can't ignore, I don't know, the actual PLAYING of the INSTRUMENTS? If you didn't notice, they played very well, which is mostly why they got first place. Do you really think that they got 1st place solely based off of the 15 seconds of body movements they apparently "stole" from the Cookies? I think you forgot that this is WGI. Kind of disrespectful for the amount of work Pulse put into this show.

[@stuffstuff9394]

Kelsphere12 You do realize they gave inspirational credit multiple times on their Facebook, right?
