[@DouglasStevens0521]

The Bluecoats flag feature was one of the most effective moments in all of DCI this year. Such a creative idea that the members executed wonderfully

[@Surelockohms]

The Bluecoats flag feature is one of my favorite moments also. The colorguard is such and important aspect that many don't seem to repesct enough.

[@MattJordanPercussion]

Thanks for the shoutouts! Some great audio moments from all groups this year.

[@CatherallAudio]

Thank you for everything you do! I can't wait to see what you guys create next summer!

I'm glad someone finally did a video on the top audio moments from DCI 2024. I was really blown away by the special audio effects being used this year on the field, and finally we have someone here who has addressed the issue with this video. As others have said throughout this year's DCI Season, "this is NOT your parents drum corps!"

[@Surelockohms]

Thank God it's not our parents drum corps. Bluecoats show has such an aura that elevates their show to new heights.

[@ChristianBanas]

Hell yeah! Finally someone putting spotlight on audio with drum corps. We need better audio education for those in the marching arts because man are there many uneducated folks teaching groups haha Love it! Keep it up

[@CatherallAudio]

Thank you for the kind words!

I saw something from a Bluecoats staffer stating that the material for the flags during that awesome flag feature was Mylar. The same material that’s used in camping blankets and some balloons.

I saw the Bluecoats audible flag feature first in ensemble rehearsal the night before their first public show. I had the same reaction I had 10 years earlier when seeing/hearing the pitch bend for the first time.... like, what just happened?!? 😮😊🍁💙

[@Encyclopedist]

Bluecoats took it to a new level with the microphones, but Glassmen had used metallic flags for the sound effects in their 2011 show.

[@sashaashby]

great video, thanks! i do love when colorguard equipment sounds make it onto the mics, so cool

[@bleesax]

Carolina crowns snare vocoder trick should have made the cut!

[@bg1036]

Blue Knights did it about 8 years ago....not new

[@bleesax]

@@bg1036 yea it’s not new but it was a cool moment for 2924

[@tredaviousbowser7931]

Phantom had a great show but their trombone and euphonium moment is so cheesy

[@ameliajarosz3432]

The whole blue coats show was insane this year audio and visual and if I'm honest all of DCI was insane this year compared to other years

[@isaaccisneros9600]

Nice work!

[@sportsguy23]

You know what would have made this a better video? More of the music and less of you talking.

[@sake42]

dude just go watch the shows, you clicked on this video yourself

[@sportsguy23]

@@sake42 Right, not knowing what the content would be. It's not like it was advertised with "mostly talking and a little bit of show" lol

[@sake42]

@@sportsguy23 it’s a commentary channel, reacting on audio content, any amount of media literacy would tell you that the show music isn’t the main reason someone would click, it’s for the commentary

bro name keith urine 🤣

[@ndavis3920]

Then get out

[@SparrowYT2011]

The most annoying thing about this video is that you put 3 things that should not be in drum corps it just bothers me you put in a trombone, a turn table, and a GUITAR!!!! And you put the only good solo that wasn’t based on a guitar or something electronical last

[@RefleXive]

I disagree. Activities are meant to evolve. You could say that these do not belong in 1980s drum corps or 1990s drum corps. I would agree with that statement.

[@Surelockohms]

The most annoying thing is people wanting to double down on old ways and let the activity die due to some random high horse. If you are a fan of Drum Corps you'd know that DCI has been about change and evolution since 1972.

[@Encyclopedist]

Some critics in 1971 said that drum corps was no more because two prominent corps -- the Cavaliers and the Madison Scouts -- incorporated stage costumes and story elements into their shows. Were those people right to say that?

[@ZakhadWOW]

the musical changes are something negotiable. The dancing around or laying on the ground and PUTTING AN INSTRUMENT ON THE GROUND AT ANY POINT is unforgivable, and one point I will never give way on.

This is NOT your Grandpa's Drum Corps. Deal with it! Kudos to DCI for bringing marching music to the next level. And thank you for acknowledging the great staff in this video's.👍👍
