@@mediocreman2 I knew that they switched up some stuff at some point in the 90's or early 2000's I think. But either way thanks for the info! I'll have to check out some older stuff then lol
This was the show that got me into DCI. I remembered watching this when I was 11 years old. I was so inspired at how accurate and amazing the performers were. Little did I know, I would march the Cavaliers in 2011 when I was 17 years old. My dream came true ⚙️💚 Outside of my wedding ring, my gear is my most prized possession.
If I’d made the line when I auditioned in 2006 and 2007 I might’ve liked my dci experience. Sadly I “ended up” in a corps at a very down point in its history and did not enjoy my 1 season on the field.
Such a well-designed show. Hypnotic! Non-cluttered! Current designers should take note of the uniform: dark pants, light tops. What the viewer sees is points in space in motion without distracting leg movements. And NO PROPS!!!!!
If you like the drill for this show, you should look up the Cavaliers 2003 show! It was way ahead of its time and still blows me away today as much as it did back then.
Not only that, it's all the ridiculous non-marching they're doing as well. They're just prancing all over the field and the visual design these days is atrocious
Grateful for this comment. I am aware that "things were better back in our day" is a fallacy but DCI feels like winter guard anymore. I was watching some recent shows and thought, "damn I'd really love to see some drill...I KNOW 2004 cavs!!".
@@n1njacatz This is why I'll never be able to understand the hype behind 2010s bluecoats shows. The performers are still insanely talented, but when you cover the whole field with props and spend half the show playing with them instead of actual marching, it becomes harder to tell that you're actually watching a world class corps.
What is cool about this show is that the programming, quality of design and showmanship are so good while the music is so accessible to someone who has never seen drum corps.
I met Aaron Brizuela, the drum major for this show, a couple years after this (he was a brass assistant at the university I attended)....and he said NOTHING about this the whole season. He's a super-cool, unassuming, humble dude. I'm so happy he and the Cavies took home gold in '04.
This show was literally beyond its time! I get an eargasm every time I watch it and then realize… These guys were way ahead of their time! To actually organize this many 18 year olds to get a score of 99.70. I’m speechless. The amount of adult skills and writing is staggering! It’s a beautiful display of discipline, musicianship and discipline met with the right amount of circumstances plus a genius amount of 007 bravado was instilled! Bravo! It’s bloody genius!
Fucking chills running down my spine every time they finish that triangle formation towards the end at 10:54. This show literally had the biggest balls and swagger I've ever seen in drum corps. I wish so so so so so badly that the Cavies would go back to this style of show writing.
Agreed! I'm a Cavie alumni but even I can say that the rotating box from Crown 2013 is VERY cool too! **edit** in terms of an "illusion" or trippy kind of effect.
The drill where it blurs into a double vision 007 that becomes clear... soooo good. Seriously why don't more writers do this? Visual may be a smaller portion of the score but it's what fans go to shows for.
Watched this show just about a million times as of now... And every time I find one more genius fucking nugget about this show! This was a master class of a show! :)
Another amazing Cavaliers show!!! They were so amazing in the early 2000s…. Frameworks being my favorite show of all time!!! Great job!!! Thanks for posting!!!
I have no idea why, but my official headcanon for the show now is James Bond and the Drum Major fighting for control over the podium, with the Colorguard on the side of Bond and the Band being on the side of the Drum Major. Why do I imagine this? I don't know, I guess when I hear music I can imagine anything.
This reminds me of my high school days. My HS marching band attended one of the final DCI shows, and I remember we watched this show. When it got to the 007 formation I said out loud, "I wonder if that stands, for 2007, but it's only 2004." Then I realized after the fact it was for double 07, lmao. Definitely made some of our coach's and peers laugh. 😂
If balls had a name to it… This show would be it. No better DCI show to highlight the whole entire 007 movement! As someone that marched throughout high school! And watched that entire series! Fucking bravo m! 👏 I marched tenors! A drum line equivalent to mid voices! This is why I will always be cavaliers hard fan! That’s what’s sold me. That and frameworks!
Of the cavies’ run, which is almost unmatched in DCI, this show is the closest to being beat. They had “the juice” for a good while there for sure. More aggressiveness in DCI = more wins! Nice job here Cavies. I miss this
I wish ppl would stop acting old. Sound quality and musicianship is far superior now and it isnt bc of synthesizers. Soloists being mic'ed is better for the musicians so they dont have to strain to be heard. Yes the drill went away but lets be honest, most ppl cant even see the drill at the shows unless youre high up in the judges boxes or at home on skycams. So lets stop with the "back in my day" bc it is really tiresome
lol at calling 2004 “back in the day.” I’d present to you 1988-1993, ANY corps then just cooked. Didn’t even have to be the winner to be remembered, 1989 Phantom, 1992 BD, 1993 Star
They started out the show with the 007 theme, what're you even talking about? Most of the music selection is from the movie Goldeneye and you realize there is more than 1 theme playing throughout the show right?
I thought to myself! The cavaliers can’t possibly outdo themselves! And boi was I ever pleasantly surprised! What really makes me really fucking mad. Is that my cavaliers r no longer the cavaliers that I knew and fell in love with in my teens! Where is my “huge ass/mind numbing ass cavalier drill design?” I’m going be as the very least annoyed until what Cavaliers do is stick to their huge azz balls and get back to what they have been known for the best in the 2000s; which is incredibly kind bending drill design. Until then. I will just watch from afar! 😂 This is what u made u the green machine!
Old school DCI is so pure...
old school is the 70s and 80s for me when I marched in the 80's lol
And this was after the move from G bugles, at least for The Cavaliers, so earlier DCI was even more pure and powerful.
@@mediocreman2 I knew that they switched up some stuff at some point in the 90's or early 2000's I think. But either way thanks for the info! I'll have to check out some older stuff then lol
@@sl9575 Yeah I marched in the 2010's lol but I consider it sorta old school because I was so young at the time haha

Drill complexity and cavvy sounds. Soul candy. Love it.
Soul veggies. Its healthy and a necessity lol
Absolutely David. Thanks for chatting back 😊👍
The drill for this was so cool. It’s my favorite marching show I’ve seen, including the ones I’ve been in 😂

I wish drum corps would go back to shows like this.. all the props and synthesized sound today takes away from the talent of those on the field.
Not only that, it's all the ridiculous non-marching they're doing as well. They're just prancing all over the field and the visual design these days is atrocious

Ya know who designs today's shows? Those who marched shows like this.
@@davidwarner3326Is that true? If so, that's sad.

Between the flam diddles this was just about the most genius fucking DCI piece of music writing!
I cry every tone I listen to it!
The whistling at 4:42 ...chills every time
This show was literally beyond its time!
I get an eargasm every time I watch it and then realize…

The move at 8:09 is one of the coolest form/illusions I’ve ever seen in marching
Hard to pick just one - this show is loaded with awesome drill!
Agreed! I'm a Cavie alumni but even I can say that the rotating box from Crown 2013 is VERY cool too! **edit** in terms of an "illusion" or trippy kind of effect.

The drill for this year was absolutely insane
Watched this show just about a million times as of now... And every time I find one more genius fucking nugget about this show! This was a master class of a show! :)
Absolutely insane drill to close the show. I haven't seen anything like it since.
Again, best. No fluff or puff, magic. Just determination
The drill for this show was some of the most amazing stuff I've ever seen.
Another amazing Cavaliers show!!! They were so amazing in the early 2000s…. Frameworks being my favorite show of all time!!! Great job!!! Thanks for posting!!!
I'd go all the way back to 1985. From 1985-2011, the Cavaliers placed out of the top 5 once.
Thanks so much for posting this. I watch it all the time because #bandnerd.
I have no idea why, but my official headcanon for the show now is James Bond and the Drum Major fighting for control over the podium, with the Colorguard on the side of Bond and the Band being on the side of the Drum Major. Why do I imagine this? I don't know, I guess when I hear music I can imagine anything.
still one of my fav Cavie shows.
All time favorite....

No better DCI show to highlight the whole entire 007 movement!
As someone that marched throughout high school!
And watched that entire series!
Fucking bravo m! 👏
I marched tenors! A drum line equivalent to mid voices!
This is why I will always be cavaliers hard fan!
That’s what’s sold me.
That and frameworks!
3:10 Damn that drum break was tight!
That is my favourite DCI final , I watched it everyday when I was young. Thank you for share~
This show is incredible.
I actually got to sit right next to this camera at this show.
Crazy how good you can make a show when there’s no props and bullshit.
Right? remember when corps used to do drill?
Of the cavies’ run, which is almost unmatched in DCI, this show is the closest to being beat. They had “the juice” for a good while there for sure. More aggressiveness in DCI = more wins! Nice job here Cavies. I miss this
They kept moving like OML🥴very fast and large steps. Classic
Want more grit, organic? All, ALL, of 1987 could've been no. 1. Chk it out!
WHEN DOES 007 LOSE? MAGNIFICENT!!!!! CHILLS!!!
wow that double 0 is 7
This show is fucking awesome
I think the guy at 3:05 is so freaking cool.
99.925… we all know we nearly died hearing that score
I wish ppl would stop acting old. Sound quality and musicianship is far superior now and it isnt bc of synthesizers. Soloists being mic'ed is better for the musicians so they dont have to strain to be heard. Yes the drill went away but lets be honest, most ppl cant even see the drill at the shows unless youre high up in the judges boxes or at home on skycams.

sound quality isn't superior if you happen to be sitting in front of the bluecoats speaker stack.
lol at calling 2004 “back in the day.” I’d present to you 1988-1993, ANY corps then just cooked. Didn’t even have to be the winner to be remembered, 1989 Phantom, 1992 BD, 1993 Star
If you want to die inside a little, the age outs from this show are 41 or 42 now and several are probably grandfathers. Enjoy your day.
Not unless they’re having babies right out of college, not really an elder millennial thing to do.

11:16 very spicy high D mellos
4:35
Dirtiest show to ever win and it still deserved it! What a show.
7:10 what is the title of that song?
Paris & Bond from Tomorrow Never Dies
@@zyzzyva980 thank you so much sir❤️❤️❤️❤️
what is the name of the songs?
Did this show win?
Yeah
Should have named the show "James Bond" rather than "007" since the "James Bond Theme' is played and not the "007 Theme." But still a great show!
They started out the show with the 007 theme, what're you even talking about? Most of the music selection is from the movie Goldeneye and you realize there is more than 1 theme playing throughout the show right?
Am I a boomer, or do the use of props make watching marching bands hella distracting? I miss the hell out of pure, unadulterated marching bands 😢
I thought to myself! The cavaliers can’t possibly outdo themselves!
And boi was I ever pleasantly surprised!
What really makes me really fucking mad. Is that my cavaliers r no longer the cavaliers that I knew and fell in love with in my teens!
