Which kind of Drum Feature does your band have?
We didn't get one this year 😔
5, there is too much variety in skill in between my drumline
Number 15 was our band when the bass drums (AKA me) came in completely late. This was like midway through our winter season, and most of the bass drummers still struggled memorizing the music, so our tech was like, I'm giving the part to my favorite student/drumset player.
@@adrianrodriguez1627 my school puts all the double reeds and orchestra kids in guard/percussion. I got put in percussion.
No instructor 💀
You forgot "Instructor writes a whole new feature to replace the stock one and it's only slightly too hard"
My favorite part is when the snares and tenors float in front of the bass drums… impressive
the snare prodigy levitating over the other features had me dying😭
With all the percussion separated like that on the field and still playing so well together that impressive 😂😂
Eric ,that one made laugh out loud....you totally hit it on the nose...keep it up. very fun to watch ...
Love how feature 3 is basically the final drum battle from the drumline movie
I found myself struggling to each lunch while watching this because I couldn't stop laughing and choking on my food. This is so SPOT ON it's killing me 😂
Our bass line sheet music looks EXACTLY like the "every kid marches DCI"
One time when i auditioned for tenors (keep in mind it was my first year in marching band as a 7th grader.) We when to put the drums on for the first time and it was very heavy. The other kid auditioning for tenors who was a senior helped me put on the drums and they were very heavy. The instructor told me to try playing the music in the warm up packet but i forgot how to play in so i just played jig 2. I ended up in the pit that year
These had me laughing. At a competition in ‘90, we had already performed so there was time to watch a couple other bands’ performances. I specifically remember a line with a tenor player who had marched Bluecoats. It was very obvious that all of the talent and book were centered on his performance. That kid was doing stuff that didn’t even belong in the ensemble, let alone the rest of the quad line, but he did it well. Honestly, he probably improvised the whole show. Meanwhile, the snares sounded like a spoon in a blender and the basses struggled with 16th notes.
For the high school I went to, it would definitely be "feature was cut" because I don't think they've had an actual drum feature since my freshman year, as anything else remotely close to a drum feature was like an 8 bar percussion fill before winds kept playing again.
Me personally as a beginner writer, I'd be "overwritten and terrible" because I don't have a solid grasp on what exactly is and isn't difficult for drumline
Did your school march military style? I made a similar comment as a suggestion for a 16th feature type because ours was military style. Those songs don't really allow for a feature, but would occasionally do a 1 to 8 bar break during a big maneuver to prevent lazer sounds. It was only the regular march cadence, though, not a real feature.
@@Nareimooncatt nah, ours was definitely more DCI style, heavily inspired by phantom, crown, and BD.
to be more specific with how our drum features were, freshman year (2018) had an 8 bar feature showcasing each section, as well as another feature in 7/8, sophomore and junior year had no features, only a few fills, senior year (2021) had like a couple triplets before a bari sax solo, and 2022 if I remember right had a small fill to increase tempo.
If you wanted to listen it's Rockford High School Marching band
In the next episode you need one where the only clean parts are the parts that are actually fun to play 🤣
Hahaaaaaa perfect!!
I like how on the drill writer one the bass drums are panned hard right in the audio.
As a former 4th bass #3 was definitely my favorite, bass runs don't get enough love, however #8 makes my back hurt just looking at it.
the broken city one got me hollering 💀too spot-on widdit
The detuning and sloppiness of #10 kinda gave me vibey nostalgic happiness.
2:59 was me specifically, i joined cause some peers of mine in my music elective class wanted me to join marching band, and so I did, with absolutely no knowledge of how to comprehend, let alone read music. I was Front Ensemble, couldn't read music, so I listened and eventually found the places I was meant to strike a drum, or a symbol. It was fun though, would recommend to anyone who has passion for music!
#1 would be pretty good for a young line. #12 I literally sprayed diet coke outa my nose! Have judged #14 so many times. Great video.
Video 67 of asking for the full Freebird Guitar Solo on the Megatenors
#8 had me dying lmfao
THE BROKEN CITY ONE KILLS MEEEE
crown 2023
Good morning and this is video number 122 of asking for marchable bass drums, set up in a tenor formation. I.e. benor drums.
PS: custom backbar may be needed
Timp-toms should stay in the 1960s where we left them
I hope he didn’t think we wouldn’t notice that #3 is just Hot Pepper Cheese AKA The abest Drumline Video ever
Dude the way you made the bass drums only on the right ear was so fuckin cool 7:07
My instructor was the band director. He was not a teacher, he was a musician. Quitting and learning on my own was the best choice of my music career
6:52 wearing headphones i could only hear on the right side…awesome detail
WOW! I thought this would be kind of fun, but I didn't know just how much fun. BRAVO once again! AAA+++ Highly recommended!
Funny that you release this video today because today was the first day of band camp at my highschool, and my director showed us the show audio today, idk what the drum features would be on this list
My school definitely has number 9, we have 3 percussion instructors and one of them does exactly what emc did.
Lol I dig the BCP references so much. ‘23, ‘22, ‘19, and ‘17 in there I believe
Drum feature 5: *title appears*
Me: "oh, it's gonna be Steven"
Drum feature #5: *is totally Steven*
Me: *zero disappointment*
One Ive seen a couple times even in some of my school's shows before I went there is "Big block of unison 16th notes or triplets with some diddles thrown in occasionally"
this type of band is so crazy to me as a scotsman. im used to pipe bands this is so different.
Astounding! Really appreciate the effort you exude.
Seeing Steven with a beard is cursed
The return of the godforsaken ssssquad!
2:30 Ssssolo!
3:01 Sssstephen!
4:10 Ssssnares!
4:44 Ssssnenors!
Lazypurple reference under an emc vid is wild
4:51
"Hey what bass do you play"
"Yup!"
My Drumline (and entire band) is always #3. We always just want the crowd to get into our shows. That's why we always have big props. Also why we don't compete. We just want everyone to have fun
the 14th one had me dying
Purple Mapex snare is the real hero here. What a beauty
you forgot "the instructor that has been doing drumline longer than the current director AND director before him ( and doesn't even do it professionally helping out the highschool is just a hobby) that always rewrites the parts to sound 5x better.
The bass drum stacked up 😂 I love it
Oh I’ve been waiting for this
I've been waiting for this
The overwritten one scared my cat into the other room.
Please make a part three I love these videos so much
so good
And on point!
I was the worst kid my freshman year on triples so they put me in snare line and I became center snare my junior and senior year!
8:05 don’t think you’re gonna get away with hiding white boy smooth in there
One of my favorite videos got a part 2 s this was epic
The sequel we have been waiting for!!!
"Didn't learn it yet" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is truly outstanding stuff man, great work!!! 👍❤️🤘
This is so true, many laugh out loud moments, thanks Eric
That Mike Jackson one 💀
Can’t wait for the front ensemble video
Damn, those I seriously good! Oh, my band in high school was about that good as well. My senior year we were were in the top four in the state.
Drum feature 2 felt like it had some 2022 Boston Crusaders drumline feature in it
I thought you had copy-pasted yourself for the parallel parts. Then I noticed the different drum skins. It's scary how in sync your movements were in the beginning
I love your videos so much Eric! say, how many videos in a row of commenting for you to clinic my school?
Long awaited.
I love Drum Feature #6 with the drum solo improvised the other tennor player was just playing the solo from jig2
This might be off topic but, In Middle School I played a song on Alto Sax called "A Prehistoric Suite" and it had an Anvil as Percussion 2 and I would like to know,
Is it normal to play an anvil in a Middle school Concert Band,
I'm really curious now that I've seen this video, but what drumlines have done #8? I think that was super cool.
OMG! Only 11 minutes late. Walking along the National Mall. Lincoln Memorial and then the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.
This video has me rolling! 💚🥁🤣👍
Hey, at SRU they know how to write drill.... 6:58 uses that field
May I ask what sticks you use for the snare? I'm currently trying to pick out some sticks to practice with!
Ours is #7, an 8 bar quad break and like 24 measures of groove
I'm impressed that Eric cloned himself so many times to make this video, cloning devices are expensive and musicians don't make much
Been waiting for 2 years finally!!!!😅👍
Feature 3 is actually really close to our high school cadence.
Bro took the hot pepper chesse cadance for the 3rd feature
Keep on doing these
I need more of this... in my life
1:45 little bit of hot pepper cheese
Another great video incoming
Coming with that heat
All of my drum features were definitely Feature #1.
#15 was close to my school's routines. How about #16: Feature is 8 bars (if you're lucky) of your regular marching cadence.
Eric, the one-man drum show. Also, I can just hear everyone in #5 yelling, Steven Sassafrass, you are ruining my life!
These pep band tune in the background tho 😢 I miss high school band
Marching band season is here!
Trumpet section leader.
That KC claw tho
Bro if you and your gang show up and perform number 13 i will applaud you cus you gotta have balls of steel to do that
We have the repetitive feature we play the same 2 bars eight times in a row. 😂
McNutt Special?
#9 was the literal definition of my band direction, then he got arrested or something for doing stuff with his students…
i think this year we're gonna be a number 8. there's only 4 of us but we're all vets and we play pretty cleanly
Fantástico meu amigo, gostaria de saber quanto custaria um curso de marching band!
wait i just realized feature 3 is cadence Hot Pepper cheese. I know that because it is a main cadence our school plays
Small and mighty took me away 😂
I'm in middle school and my band diruwants to do a percussion ensemble and we need help finding music Ensemble what type of music would not be to hard but sound good and more up bear
Suggestion for your next top 15: Entire drum line plays as loud as they can, all the time.
Also: Bass drummers are all freshman and are embarrassed to turn sideways to the sideline on the drum feature because they are embarrassed that their friends will see them and make fun. Which they would have.
And yes both ^^^ happened to me one time I was the volunteer drum instructor for a small school. That's why it only happened to me one time.
Saw that addition of Hot Pepper Cheese ;)
I'd like to retitle #1 as "Was really technical, but got watered down for finals sake"
My high school would be in the not bad but not good with a bit of overwritten mixed in category
the overwritten and terrible had me on the floor 😂
Nah i know that drum feature 8 killed your back 💀
Also the last band i saw was really small and they only had two percussionist, a snare and a tenor, but their tenor sounded like bass drums
These videos make me think my section sucks
The most complex thing we have in the bass drum section is 2 measure bass drum feature (not the drumline feature) bass 4 hits on 1 and + of 4 and then bass 1-3 go down after 2 eighth note diddles starting on the + of 1
In short it looks like 1+a2e+a3e+a4e+1
This is at 152 and we actually play them as rrll and not rlrl
Normally we do splits with 2 eighth notes each down or 8 sixteenths where we each play 2
We never play any 6 lets 5 lets etc. although we also have a part where we split diddles on a triplet at 102
My instructor also gave bass 1 and 2 a slightly harder part since we’re the better players in the section overall bass 2 is close to 3rd best but might have the best technique and they’re the only one in the district including the band teachers that knows traditional grip
I'm surprised for #10 that they were all gripping their sticks correctly (for the most part)
