I think this was the best musical show of the 2012 season. I wouldnt go as far as to say that (Carolina Crown had the best musical show IMO in 2012) but Crossmen were in my top 5 and over some big name corps.
What do you mean they aren't a band? I understand the whole "not marching band" argument, but you're saying they aren't a band? That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard.
you can tell this was shot early into the season, a few of them still have some baby fat left. I remember losing 30 lbs from May to August one season. Considering I started at 129, that scared the CRAP out of my parents when they saw me again at tour's end!!!
But was this in West Virginia? It's hard to remember exactly where you are during tour because the entire summer blends together. Lol I just remember we all thought this looked like Jurassic Park dieing the morning run.
wow, usually they arent supposed to stop and pick up a dropped stick, even if your bandmate was giving one to you and they missed, thats why you have at least 2 or three extra sticks.
@chelalo99 is SO ignorant. it is a drum corp. aka, brass, percussion, and guard only. NO WOODWINDS. and you're probably deaf if you can't hear drums because they are great. the brass is so strong it makes it difficult to hear the line, but they definitely don't suck. Open your ears a little and pop your little head out of the little world of woodwinds. And your high school band doesn't stand a chance against outplaying, outmarching, or outperforming the Crossmen. Don't EVER diss ANY drum corps.
I will never grow tired of this show’s opener. Easily one of the best openers in DCI.

Never tired of hearing that lead trumpet on Earthsong
I remember this day well! ( I was on staff.) There was absolutely 0 cell phone service here! haha. Beautiful surroundings though
Zach Ashcraft rip crossmen now, still my favorite core though I’m actually trying out this year !
@@labber7772 Might try out next year, love them.
@@labber7772 I think it's Corps, not "core".
tstanton_ _ I aged out in 2012 and I prefer “summer band”
Poor drum major is burnt as hell
A San Antonio high school, brah.
My student teacher was in this show she was a baritone and she's amazing!!!
Forgot there are several Alex's in Crossmen...... I was saying "get it" to my daughter Alex (guard).
Definitely most exciting show of 2012
This is my dream corps to march with. I really loved this show.
Yo my band teacher played in this. He was the lead trumpet
Taylor Barnes?!?
Is the guy speaking in the intro the same guy who speaks in bds show?
BAND IS AWSOME!!!!!!!!
I like how people keep talking about how crossmen isn't a high school band, when it's not even a band at all
Drum corps is marching band.
DONT USE THE B WORD
I marched corps for 2 years, i think ive earned the right to call it a marching band
It really is a Marching Band.. It's a Marching Band at the Next, and professional level.

Beautiful, wonderful, awesome!! Thanks for posting. Imagine with full uniforms on. These folks sure are troopers!! Get it Alex!!
They're a member of the Drum Corps International, AKA DCI
I wish you guys were closer to me!! I would audition in heartbeat!!
Sherman High, in WV!
>When people think DCI is a High School lacking a woodwind section
no.

Crossmen Rock!! They need to let my son join so that I will be happy and proud!
I have always been in love with there drill...and how it looks
Is this Michael Jackson? Nice!
DAT OPENER!!
they don use bones in dci. it be awesome though if they could have a euph player pick up a bone and do a solo during the show though
It would be awesome
It's a drum corp they're rehearsing at a high school though
at 4:56 on the right of the screen, the color guard girl drops the rifle
This place looked like Jurassic Park to us haha we loved it
Anyone able to explain the meaning (as in theme) of this show to me? I'm a tad lost, thanks :)
save da earth
Nice opener!
This was a pretty great place to perform at :)
But was this in West Virginia? It's hard to remember exactly where you are during tour because the entire summer blends together. Lol I just remember we all thought this looked like Jurassic Park dieing the morning run.
Crossmen is not a High School Band. Crossmen is a DCI professional band.
The trumpet or French Horn
A silent company front... creative.
its a professional group
how do they pick who gets to be bones? ive been wondering this
wow, usually they arent supposed to stop and pick up a dropped stick, even if your bandmate was giving one to you and they missed, thats why you have at least 2 or three extra sticks.
thats why when describing dci i dont talk about how its like professional marching band. i just say its fucking amazing and then show them malaguena
what was the show called?
May 3, 2012 - the show name "Fragile,"
Impresionante ;)
Tried to tell him...
Which one?
PERFEITO............................................
I think my corps practiced here this past season
this is your brotherhood from indonesia. Indo-Bones #CrossSatriade'Corps
yeah that kid was weird ( Marching next to him in the green power ranger shirt)
The amazing one in earthsong.
thats not a french horn. Thats a baritone.
In that case they are really stuffing that mac & cheese down them! That's good though, you have to keep that caloric intake up with high-energy shows.
Thats my friend playing the solo =D
nobody knows who he really is.
Where is bones?!
This is a DCI band, not a high school.
Thor Carlton It's a Drum and Bugle Corps. Not a band or DCI band. I marched in this Corps in 2017.
I dont think this group got the credit they deserved last year, but hey other than Blue Devils who did.
now if this was a high school band it, they would make nationals
1st
Didn't you record this with an Ipad?
lol Bones is the their mascott. It's a skeleton wearing the old uniform.
Um, me?
Crossmen is not a high school :p
this is the best corps [go bones]
What was name of this school that we rehearsed at? I can't remember and it's an awesome site
2:20.... YES
3:37 THAT BTONE SOLI!
Oh, alright.

The reprise at the end oh gees :)
BWAHAHA High school?!?! :D
Trust me, I wish this was Sherman! XD

@chelalo99 Hope you enjoyed my response to your troll. True words all day. Go DCI!
