Rhythm X Full Run of Inspired before finals at MEPA Champs (3/28/10)

I got to get up-close and personal with Rhythm X while they ran though their 2010 program of Inspired before their winning finals performance at MEPA Championships

[@thewhitetextguy]

Definitely my favorite WGI show even if it was pretty dirty. Just can't get over the badassery of the snare + tenor books and the awesome music selection

[@tkvids1377]

lucylalonde not dirty at all

[@seamusmceagan]

it so awesome to see people so intensely into what they are playing, especially indoor and marching

[@redtib2003]

LOVE the music starting at 3:13! Sounds like music from a war/fight scene from a Gladiator/Spartan movie

[@angelramirez171]

Muse, United States of Eurasia

[@Fox6sports1]

probably my favorite snare book of all time. soo amazingg

[@yungtwiz]

Love that they changed this opener like a million times

[@Eyeoftherhino]

Ridiculous Single Strokes THE SHOW

[@cyberbri68]

Very cool!! I'd love to hear a professional recording of this show. Very cool to see this up close!!! GREAT JOB GUYS AND GALS!!!

[@ElliottHumphrey]

Nothing short of bad ass.

[@IzwanShahriza]

Still watching in 2023

[@rikuantu]

I love how the bluecoats 2010 center tenor says "that can't happen i don't know how they do that."

[@alexgaeckle1540]

The heads they were using were prototype honey comb hybrids. Only X got to use them because they were discontinued for many reasons i have no idea why. But as far as i see it. They were a success because they sound fantastic on tenors and snares.

[@jarredparr]

They are actually in use by the Bluecoats now! Level 360 is the name

[@borodrew]

Jarred Parr The Level 360 is a new way Evans is making their heads. It has to do with how the head sits on the bearing edge of the drum. Maybe you're thinking of the System Blue heads that Evans came out with for the Blue Devils? That's the only head that I can think of that still has the honey comb.

[@jarredparr]

Oh, maybe I'm just crazy. I just remember seeing a bluecoats video where they had the honeycomb heads and it said level 360

[@micah_drums]

+Jarred Parr I think he's talking about the snare heads bc he said hybrid.

[@indigomomx2]

Anyone here in 2019 to watch I&E the Show?

[@Juliannerenae]

love them :)) they're so nice too. they practice at my school cause our director is their quads director. It's pretty amazing !!

[@JTWillPlay]

the snare 3rd from the left looks like the dude on college humor lol. Damn can't get enough of this music!!!

[@kendallton11]

Most amazing thing I've seen today. And that is a statement.

[@tsadrummer]

The amount of notes in this snare book is unhuman, there all robots sent back into time.

[@ravenrenee123]

Honestly this is way too awesome!

[@tsadrummer]

one of my favorite snare books of all time

[@DrummerOlive]

@alldrums247 wish I had the opporuntity to play on a bass with head like that! They sound awsome!!

[@fuzzydunlop0507]

I LOVE HIS SHIRT!!!! HEY YOU GUUUUUYYYYS!

[@Bramblebaugs]

Well, I see doseone and Ben Cooper on snare and that guy from "Sent u a Message" on bass 5. That's cool.

[@alldrums247]

@jrdnhunting you've got it. it goes around the index finger and is flicked with the thumb and middle basically

[@beachman-dq6zs]

6:30 , shit got real

[@tim.noonan]

@alldrums247 The ballad is called "Collateral Damage." It's the second half of United States of Eurasia, off of their album The Resistance. Both songs are in the show, the 2nd and 3rd movements respectively. Sorry if I sound like an X fanboy, I just know those Muse songs.

[@onwisconsin1794]

3:08 you’re welcome

[@sober1453]

Lol🤣🤣🤣

[@iambiglucas]

ive never seen a snareline switch from the edge to the center so many times...

[@alldrums247]

@KLiQsan the guy on the left is Dan Twiford and the one on the right is Aaron Serbando

[@be9nz]

this shit's hard, dude!

[@ThePOPOVICI]

Zach Galifianakis at 0:53 Awesomeness from 0:00 to 7:40 And I think there was some Muse in there too

[@crittinger]

muse should have rhythm x join them on stage

[@alldrums247]

@FatHalpert93 maybe that's the case considering the vis at 2:14 hahahaha man, i love rhythm x... can't wait to march with them! haha

[@alldrums247]

@Kilo181 "Butterflies and Hurricanes" is the opener off of Absolution "United States of Eurasia" off of The Resistance and "Knights of Cydonia" off Black Holes and Revelations

[@alldrums247]

@kandorei101 the main ballad is butterflies and hurricanes by muse. its off their absolution album if that helps anymore

[@alldrums247]

@DrummerOlive Tim Jackson Prototypes. RX and Centerville were the only ones to have them this year, i believe. They're Evans and they have this weird honey-comb design.

[@rikuantu]

I love how the only guys to the thing at 2:15 are bluecoats snares.

[@Muffin337]

One of the guys should've TOTALLY planked his snare.

[@tsadrummer]

The snare book's ridiculous.

[@castmc003]

HOLY MOTHER OF SINGLES

[@rayl9]

if you're talking about the people dropping out, it's part of the drill.

[@DrummerOlive]

@alldrums247 i wish i had the opportunity to play on a bass with heads like those during highschool!! They sound awsome!!

[@alldrums247]

sorry about the shotty quality.. those basses can REALLY hit and that with the combo of a small room made sketchy... sorry :( that camera works fine outside.. should have better vids after worlds :D

[@25centfool]

there is a song that describes my feelings for this vid....JIZZ IN MY PAINTS!

[@psb322]

4:43 guy between the two tenors use to b my percussion teacher and the kids in 1:00 i use to go to school with until i moved to michigan

[@alldrums247]

@DrummerOlive tenors are using the same thing and snares have hybrids

[@kv9109]

@alldrums247 Nice! He seems like a cool guy.

[@Gernads]

@advancewarsaddict lol his hand isn't even in the way during an important part, just a visual. Not a big deal, considering there are a bunch of other videos of this same part, and there will be more.

[@Silverlining1210]

I want a beard like the furthest snare player on the right

[@A_Flash1992]

Siiick!!!

[@KLiQsan]

@alldrums247 I wasn't implying they were lol the chances of that even happening would be insane anyway.

[@StoneAndersonStudio]

@MultiDrummer12 Those look like the Paul Rennick snare stick. (:

[@alldrums247]

@tmandrumma4 thats actually my tech and we asked him and he said he practiced for HOURS to get it haha. me and the person i split center with are working on it.. its hard. haha

[@alldrums247]

@advancewarsaddict nonono he's our 3rd bass i dont know how he does it, but whether im talking to our 4th bass or our director he ALWAYS gets in the way!! i dont know how he does it!! i was about to slap him when he did that.. lol

[@DrummerOlive]

[@Doatello1991]

TKvids 13 Pulse had the cleaner overall performance for the final. I agree that Rhythm X had the more impressive show, but it was slightly sloppy at times.
