I appreciate the costumes and the show Dartmouth puts on. I find your shows very fun to watch. I liked your show last year too. This is a parent from Ayala HS and we like to support all the groups. Everyone works so hard to put on an 8 min show. My hats off to your kids who found us in the parking lot to congratulate our kids. Good luck to you in the future.

[@kyletrout5522]

The comments about matched grip and technique make me laugh. If Tom Aungst, who's forgotten more about marching percussion than any commenter (including myself) have ever learned, wants them to play matched then guess what? They play matched. Times change. When I marched, it was odd to see a snare line playing matched. Now it's the norm. Big deal. Commenting on that means the show was clean, well written, and well performed and you've got nothing else to point a finger at.

[@yogidrummer333]

+Kilgore Trout For being High School kids these kids are killer matched or traditional I'm sure.

[@llc8625]

u mad bro?

[@christophertalbot8528]

I'm more bothered by the timpani technique...

[@DS-rc7sg]

Christopher Talbot it's called French grip

[@eamonmohan7152]

Kyle Trout you have think maybe they wanted to try something different

[@haydenschroeder4703]

Dartmouths shows always look fun and entertaining and I love it!

[@dmndsol]

Exciting high-energy show; Good job!

[@hannahlael3445]

I saw their finals performance. It was awesome! I love how everybody becomes a part of the show and fully embraces their job to act and perform. Way to go, Dartmouth!

[@imnotttyler]

This video is the key to all happiness thank you I can die now

[@luxypenguin]

Vic Firth needs a wide angle lens for their WGI videos. So much gets cropped out in this angle

[@deinm8246]

WOW! Amazing

[@s00nic000]

I didn't know Marge Simpson was in the battery

[@0FRIJOLERO]

Best... Thumbnail.... Ever!

[@loganbolarinho3100]

Thanks XD

[@sheldonedwards1904]

I love the concept of this show

[@brandonpozzo]

Love this so much!

IF YOUR GROUP DOESNT COMPETE IN WGI FINALS DONT TALK SHIT

[@DatGuyWithNoName]

Those snares kinda look like Brandon Olander.

[@supermcnasty1o520]

Get ready for WGI 2017 we won't disappoint 😉

[@mikel7505]

SUPER McNaStY1o Idk if you'll see this, but I wanna see your 2018 show, so great too bad there's no video

[@adamholm2436]

Figured Dartmouth would be uploaded today.

[@antonios.3921]

You should post finals performances

[@brothaNblue]

I gonna be bold and say either Dartmouth will win 2017 or play so clean that getting first will be extremely difficult for their opponents.

[@Icyysenpaiii]

BrothaNBlue2 doubt it

[@brothaNblue]

+George Aquino think about it. In 2013 they place 4th, their lowest placement in history up to that point. Then in 2014 they come back clean as hell and win. I think the same thing is gonna happen again.

[@Icyysenpaiii]

BrothaNBlue2 I know I thought about it, but I went to Chino hills hs and ayala hs rehearsals for indoor and I know for a fact they're going back and forth for 1st place like 2016

[@brothaNblue]

+George Aquino I see. Well have you seen any Dartmouth footage? I still think it's too early to count them out.

[@beeuhtricks]

welp

[@BCSchmerker]

*Not bad on the music,* but the equipment could have been better chosen for the theme. Yamaha®? Why not Premier®, a British manufacturer that already supports DCI®? (I would have recommended 38214RQL snares and 38318RQL euphoniums on 6821 vest carriers; 38103SL quads with 38106RC and 38108RC shots on 6824 vest carriers configured for hex toms; and scaled basses from 38420RQL through 38428RQL with 6822 vest carriers for this performance.) And why no faux leopardskins for the bass drummers?

[@kyletrout5522]

+B. C. Schmerker yes because public schools have unlimited budgets to purchase brand new equipment for the battery every year, based on the show.

[@g0tham]

B. C. Schmerker Dartmouth already have really good equipment lmao

[@drummist6212]

As a Brit' I liked the concept of the show and found it entertaining. However I don't think that our national flag should have been used as a costume or guard flag. Perhaps a slight variation of the 'Jack' would have worked just as well. Just saying!

[@supermcnasty1o520]

Bass cam ?

[@thejbo777]

Can someone explain to me why a HIGH SCHOOL in MASSACHUSETTS can be this good but my high school sucks complete balls?!!

[@chrissutter7159]

massachusetts has the best schools. Oh yeah and Tom Aungst.

[@EanGoreham]

thedebo777 what's wrong with Massachusetts

[@brothaNblue]

They start teaching their feeders, starting with the elementary school. Then they recruite from the middle school. So by the time they hit high school, they are beastly.

[@dansmolenski2159]

the marching arts are actually pretty big in MA and NH. fun fact about Dartmouth. the quad captain of crown and a cadets dm are Dartmouth alum

[@michaelhutson1631]

Oh yeah we also put in like 30 hours a week of practice

[@Em22-wtf]

Lol, I took my son to a local Parade where these kids marched and played AMAZINGLY....my son was little then and he cried when they kept going down the street, lol!! I had to explain that the Parade Rolls On, Kiddo, but you can join them when you are bigger...he is entering 6th grade, playing the Cello...Lol!! Guess marching lost its appeal to the 2 Cellos ;P I tried, at least he's interested in music!

[@OverAnalyzingStuff]

ngl that timpani player looks like he's having a miserable time

ok i'm just gonna say it; the pit is really dirty and they just try to cover it up with loud synths.

can you do any better?

[@thisistides97]

am i a 20 person group of keyboard players? or am i someone stating this BASED on the groups who do better? (chino hills comes to mind right away)

Who won in 2016? Like gold medalists

[@throwingshade6720]

COSM psw gold went to Ayala HS i believe

[@miguelperez5404]

I'm not hating on them or anything but they're very quiet.

[@taylorford6754]

I'd wanna see this group add two more snares and lose the match grip, then i'd fall in love with this ensemble.

[@supermcnasty1o520]

Well we added one more this but it's still matched grip ;)

[@supermcnasty1o520]

+SUPER McNaStY1o this year *

[@taylorford6754]

Well good, i'm glad y'all are growing. But i just can't with match grip, man. XD

[@supermcnasty1o520]

Why does everyone hate the matched grip

[@taylorford6754]

Don't get me wrong, it's not bad for beginners, but for advanced musicians, traditional is necessary. It's a more advanced technique, and all the major ensembles including Corps and Indoor groups use it.

[@EpicMind500]

Did he make his kids shave their heads?

[@cathybarker1866]

Mallets for dayz they all chose to dye and shave their heads because doing it for the show was a perfect way to convince your parents but those who couldn't used color hairspray.

[@kyletrout5522]

I'm amazed this show was not a medallist. 5th place? C'mon.

[@figurativefluff]

While I am patriotic to Arcadia high school, there's no doubt that this show was amazing. One if my favorites in fact :)

[@supermcnasty1o520]

+TotalDudeBro 。 thank you!!

[@g0tham]

Joshua Maitoza are you in the drumline for marching band this year? I saw u guys yesterday lmao I'm from the JP Stevens drumline, we finished second behind u guys

[@supermcnasty1o520]

RequiemHD he's in the pit

[@g0tham]

Your pit is huge too lmao

[@soupienips6338]

Okay. Anyone who dislikes this show or school because it makes them cringe because there is no traditional you are honestly pathetic. If you are so ignorant to music that you are upset a group of kids (emphasis on kids) are playing at this level but without traditional you have no creditability. Also, don’t make some shit excuse like they won’t be able to do dci or WGI because people from this school have and they are perfectly capable to do so. Just so pissed off when I see these kids in the comments who are probably like 13 who think this school sucks because they can’t play traditional. 95% of them don’t hold it right and half of them do traditional is their right hand which is wrong,

[@iamscooterdude720]

the quads are so tilted

[@replayarchive8758]

I'm sorry but this did not deserve first in my opinion. Definitely not over Chino Hills.

[@boboddybiznis]

I don't care that they're doing matched grip but God this show still makes me cringe hard

[@zacharyrhodes5157]

[@wei-anhsieh2853]

This show is so weird

[@wickedchopsgalore1495]

This show made me cringe

[@moisescarrillo7668]

Why no traditional grip. Also, they're not marching correctly.

[@willgaines5269]

+Wicked ChopsGalore but you have to remember that these kids are only 14-18.

[@supermcnasty1o520]

+Moises Carrillo it is easier for us to switch between drums if we play match so we don't have learn everything over again

[@supermcnasty1o520]

+Will Gaines I'm in the Dartmouth Drumline we play match so we can play and learn the other drums no problem instead of us having to learn stuff all over again

[@colemanhamilton7133]

Even if the show made you "cringe" please understand that we worked our butts off every day for the product of this show. You can sit behind a computer and say that but you don't understand the dedication and hard work that went into this.

[@zacharytrimble4755]

it kind of disappointed me when I see a group using match grip

[@zacharytrimble4755]

*disappoints

[@MrTyranitar15]

Why? It's cleaner, looks more symmetrical, and traditional is basically pointless with flat drums.

[@brothaNblue]

after about 17 years(maybe more) of doing it, and placing top 3 in all but 2. It's become what Dartmouth is know for. And doing anything different would be completely out of character for them.

Zachary Trimble stupid when people say things like that. What difference does it make if they do this show in traditional vs matched? Seriously don't understand have that is disappointing.

[@caseyrobertson881]

Even with pretty bad show music (even though I love The Beatles and British punk rock, this was a really bad interpretation) Dartmouth still pulled off a good performance.
