Should definitely go back in time and do old drum corps warm ups For example- SCV 2004 Double beat Maybe a whole video of just good ol’ early 2000’s tenor writing. Nick Werth.
He could most definitely tech one, but I don’t believe he would be interested, he seems to enjoy playing much more than teaching, but I’m sure he could definitely do it if he wanted to, it would just be a lot out of his schedule, and would make it hard for him to upload videos, which make him a lot of his money.
Can't wait for your mashup. So, how old are you now? You were 11 when you first posted your age, but I can't find it ... So, now ... Still 12? or are you an official a teenager at 13??? Still waiting for your shoe size at 420 subscribers! 😁
Eric, I just love your deliveries on your videos. I am a retired elementary teacher after 39 years in the classroom, and I think you are missing your natural calling. I can just see you captivating the minds of kids with your wit and enthusiasm.
Epic Independent Study Assignment: Shake Senora, by Harry Bellefonte, in four mallet harmony played by a Marimba choir (all of whom are you). This would be so ridiculously epic.
Challenge: Can you play the bass drum parts for Puritania by Dimmu Borgir, but on a Concert Bass drum. If you don't have a Concert Bass, then use multiple marching bass drums.
For my EMC best audition, I did a 40 minute Herta. I had to do it live so it would upload without killing my computer. I’m upset I didn’t make it on the list :(
1:34 It's important to watch the video before composing the most EPIC comment, but I got here, and had to stop, get the timestamp, and make this post! 😂🤣🤣🥁🐔🥁
Hey emc I don't know if you'll see this, but I was the guy who sent in the doubles warmup at 16:38 and I just wanted to say, my whole drumline was freaking out and thought it was so cool so thankyou!
*Video 29* of Loopy Grandma asking Lil' Peanut dressed as a surfer dude to play -Wipe Out by the Ventures- *Any surfer song* !!! ... Great for another video using the kit!!! And I know you are very creative, so I expect something EPIC! (Wipe Out would cause video to be copywrite claimed!) ... (oops! forgot to post this ....)
You should really try Basel (swiss) drumming, it is a real challenge if you aren’t familiar with the style! I had very much fun attempting some pieces. There is a video on Rhythm Monster of the Pfeiffer (fifer) retraite. I think it would be awesome if you would try that!
History assignment: there are older pictures of drum corps when they were first adopting multi tenor setups where the musicians carried them with a pair of slings instead of a harness. You can also see an example of how that works in one of the old Ludwig catalogs from the 1960s. You can try setting up your tenors in a similar manner to get a hint of what that was like back then. For efficiency's sake, you can combine this with another playing assignment.
Video 26 of commenting until Eric reacts to my former high school's drumcorps and Steven to react to those flub-centric corps in my area. Expanding my idea further: React to drum corps all around the world.
6:06 That’s Oak Mountains band and whenever we play against them we go over to their band and have a big mosh pit in the middle of a football game to Jig 2. It’s always fun when we play them.
What homework assignments should I do in the next video?
Do situps. But situate a drum or drums in front of you so you can do a rudiment, different every time, every time you sit up.
Play the licc on the spockenspiel ;)
don't know but today's my birthday :D
I'd like to see more of this and also the auditions to other Armed Forces bands.

Nick Werth.
Have been enjoying your site for quite a long time. Curious to know if any DCI corps have approached you to be their percussion coordinator?
Probably

I'm the kid that does the Jig 2 mashups.
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED, ERIC

@@RedDogMamaHD God i hope you're of a similar age, Otherwise please officer this man right here.
@@BeeTriggerBee Loopy Grandma is "The Man's Number" ... For a few more months 😉
Man eric’s got some good genetics to do that
He also did a tenor solo with it on pornhub. No joke he actually has a channel on there.
“Double stroke with the peepee” -EMC 2022
Excelent job on the Swiss roll rudiments! Would definitely be fun to see you learn all the stuff required to do a full assignment :-D
Eric, I just love your deliveries on your videos. I am a retired elementary teacher after 39 years in the classroom, and I think you are missing your natural calling. I can just see you captivating the minds of kids with your wit and enthusiasm.
That bongo solo should be in Rhythm hell
I don’t know EMC, I think you should become a singing channel
I think you were first comment, but I didn't see a heart and comment from Eric. Originally all you said was *O*
EMC Bar Karaoke episode

Is no one going to notice that he just whip is yogurt hose while drumming
My mans got copyrighted for the marimba piece
Swiss army here, you did this perfectly.

I would love to see you do the interview/entrance music for other military bands!

We here at the swiss military drum corps are proud to announce you're welcome any time
Hey emc I don't know if you'll see this, but I was the guy who sent in the doubles warmup at 16:38 and I just wanted to say, my whole drumline was freaking out and thought it was so cool so thankyou!
OMG WHAT SCHOOL IT SOUNDS SO FAMILIAR ?!?!?
I DON'T KNOW SOME PLACE CALLED DEER VALLEY
my challenge: learn to play “Blue Blood” by Ian Murphy. It’s the solo I’m performing this year. you can find it in the TapSpace Blue Book
The way he closed the video was way too smooth lmao
Well here I go ruining a nice amount of comments but those poly-rhythms were incredible.
dude you shooed do a djent version of to the moon and back by savage garden
7/11 polyrhythms.
adam neely has finally influenced you into doing them, eric. i’m proud
I want you to keep this going, if for no other reason than to give me a chance to visit my parents and find some old show music for you
mans played it so accurately he got copyrighted
Did the audio for the song you were singing get a copyright strike?
Stopping by to say I’d also like to see the military band entrance auditions.
Also “Very Nice! 👍” and good morning
Play a paradiddle, then paradiddle diddle, then paradiddle diddle diddle, and keep going
Your singing was apparently good enough to get the video copyright-striked? Sound drops out at 7:18; I thought it was my computer's fault.
Here's the link from the dump channel
th-cam.com/video/tqzm44Z8YJ8/w-d-xo.html
I am playing shala' for my i&e solo this year 9:00
Looks like it’s gonna be a great one haha
What advice would you give somebody if they are trying to get a snare Drum part.
I don't know if you've ever done this but I want you do thing where you review high school level indoor or marching band shows!
do a part 2
Yo @emc u wanna be my new band teacher

Yeah, I liked this kind of video.
Keep up the good work! :)

Copyright ruined this video at 7:15 Screw this platform
Can you play the exercise “Fulcrum Freddy” to perfection in your next hw assignment video?
More please!
Video 27 of commenting until EMC makes a front ensemble out of spocks
Woah! Eric played a warm up I WROTE I feel famous!
Question, do you prefer snare drum, tenor drums, or bass drum? I feel like the answer is obvious but I still wanted to ask.
You should really try Basel (swiss) drumming, it is a real challenge if you aren’t familiar with the style! I had very much fun attempting some pieces. There is a video on Rhythm Monster of the Pfeiffer (fifer) retraite. I think it would be awesome if you would try that!
Please do a video taking apart "The Art of War" from the Team Fortress 2 soundtrack.
16:46 does that not sound like mortal kombat?!?!?! If u say yes like this comment
That’s probably the best delecluse 9 I’ve ever heard holy shit
What program do you use to highlight and follow the handwritten music?
You should play funky fat benches that’s the solo I’m doing
Video two of me commenting to split screen yourself playing “8 on 3 and 9 on 2”
Ooh
bruh im learning shala too, ill send you a video of my performance of it assuming I remember in 2 months lol
Please more parts
4:52 Why the left hand stick is held like spoon, but right hand stick is held like fork?
Thanks for doing my 6 notes challenge!
I no longer have a place to play :( ... i think my drums have been stolen as well
Definitely do more homework assignments. They are entertaining. Do a drum line feature "inspired" by Edgar Winter's "Frankenstein."
that bongo solo kinda sounds like my baby cousin when i give him some pots and pans.
NOT THE PEEPEE 😂😂😂
8:49 Making the time stamp of the assignment I gave him
Do the drum solo from either Inna Gadda da Vida or Moby dick
I feel that in percussion the bass drum isn’t heard enough
I like to imagine that his singing was so on point that he had to cut the audio because of copyright
1:45 what.
Yes, do more of these!
You should definitely do this again
Where do I submit assignment for you?
Don’t you ever get tired of being hilarious?
The audio got cut for the dining part no shot it’s due to copyright right
Video 26 of asking for a front ensemble feature
Did the audio cut out on the marimba for anyone else
we use metal tenor sticks with plastic mallet heads like ones
Why don’t you be a drum tech for high school
History assignment: there are older pictures of drum corps when they were first adopting multi tenor setups where the musicians carried them with a pair of slings instead of a harness. You can also see an example of how that works in one of the old Ludwig catalogs from the 1960s.
You can try setting up your tenors in a similar manner to get a hint of what that was like back then. For efficiency's sake, you can combine this with another playing assignment.
Having carried tenors like that back in the day, I would not wish that on anyone!

Shala is a really fun solo, hard tho
6:06
That’s Oak Mountains band and whenever we play against them we go over to their band and have a big mosh pit in the middle of a football game to Jig 2. It’s always fun when we play them.
Bleed meets Jig 2. Winning. 😂
Every time I watch he gets better

Play Freebird!!
Something else from the rudimental cookbook the solo And the Kitchen Sink is really funky if you ever do another video like this one
Can you play snare with jazz or blues music? There are a lot of great musicians around the DC area.
