And this is why the Cavies won the Sanford! The musicianship, player-to-player interpretation, technique, sound quality, and flavor of “old cavies” writing that I remember from my days marching in the 1990s, to the “new cavies”, is extraordinary. Congrats on a very well-deserved Sanford Award in 2023 Cavaliers !!
Well I said the Cavies Drumline was #1 before San Antonio so they just proved it from then on through Atlanta through Allentown and all three nights from Prelims to Semi-Finals to Finals. As Mike Fantini of Aged out Podcast says: CLEAN WINS EVERYTIME!!! Congrats to the Cavies!
Cavaliers Drum Corps is one of the legends of drum corps. Am pleased the corps continues to perform at a high level. Congrats to the percussion section for taking 1st Place in the DCI 2023 National Championship.
Definitely cool to see the Cavs win drums but without seeing the show itself and the battery's ensemble cohesion with brass and the front, its hard for me to see how this won percussion.
@@mmmbetter55cleanliness, also it's both drumline and front. Since the judge is primarily on the side line it's really mostly the front unless the drumline is near.
The big difference between them and Boston was the stick and body movement that the Cavies did. It made what they did look even more difficult. Clean and difficult is a winner!
@@thenerfnerd6659 Top Secret Drum Corps is a huge line that only sounds good in an aircraft hangar. Cavaliers can play the hardest possible hybrid rudiment books with ease while actually marching pretty difficult visual books and they do it completely clean. There is no comparison man.
Wow..great job. I guess snare stick height has changed over the years. My high school days back in the latter 80s, kept stick height down. The bass drums heads are sooo different, they really can't be heard as..Bass Drums, the low, mid and high booms. O well.
Still dark in tone quality, but somethings come up. Snares wet. They prioritize somethings over other things. The mallet choice seems not to be to a more projection side. Bass drums despite of heads still sound darker and less articulated specially on low dynamics or less convoluted moments. Snares are just at it not over the top and not too much left to expect on. Tenors has a really good selection of drum heads, the drums sound fantastic in itself, not too bright, not distorted, I think the word is warm. So they had their sound for this season. I wish I could have been there live to see with my own eyes. Congrats Cavaliers!
What were you thinking panning away from the snares @5:15, cutting away from what is arguably the most bada$$ sticking of the entire book??? That said, it was epic watching the entire drum staff and line congregate in the parking lot of the Holiday Inn across the street from Lucas Oil, paying homage to that bitchin Sanford trophy. In your face, ScoJo. 😅
I knew from their first performance that they were gonna win percussion and they should’ve placed 1st in my opinion and that’s super hard for me to say bc I’m super biased towards bluecoats
not always about the notes. yes there were harder.. i take that back, more notey books. but there are nuances, self awareness, and confidence to this book that made this line and the writing stand out. i actually laughed listening to this drumline and absolutely loved every second of it haha a breath of fresh air compared to other over written books. everything about cavies book this year had intention and payed homage to the past with some modern updates. that claw too.
8th place and still won best percussion. This line is 🔥
no women around to distract them all summer 🤠
@@sparafucile9749 is that why the previous 10 Sanford winners came from co-ed corps?

dude the break at 4:38 is so clean and there's so much space at the beginning you can literally hear the cleanliness in the echo. Jesus christ.

A clinic in control, articulation, musicality, showmanship, and crispiness!
Any crispier and we'd crack a tooth just watching
FIRST PLACE BABY!! LETS GO CAVIES

That left handed ping at 4:13
😲
I love how one can pick out the tiny subtle hints of past book. I love it. And the standard lives! Well done, lads.
Jesus that space, this must have been a real hard book to clean. Well deserved
Congrats on the Sanford tonight!

This is old school in the best way
bass articulation ... unbelievably crisp qos ... reminds me of cadets 89 level ... congratulations on the sanford 👊🏻
Congrats Cavaliers!
Just dripping with intent! Love it.

4:12 The best pin shot with left hand ever

That and also Boston got 5th in percussion :P
They just make it look easy!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
They have that “Top Secret Drum Corp” vibe going on.
Do not insult them like that.
@@drummersnare6276don't insult who? They're good, both of them.
@@thenerfnerd6659 they’re not even in the same universe. Top secret plays easy stuff which isn’t clean, DCI plays difficult stuff which is clean

Good to see cavies win, definitely stood out from the bunch.
Great bass line!

Mad props for wearing original unis!
visuals are so sick
I wish I could play drums like them!
Learn, it takes time but that skill isn’t unobtainable
Still can!
Excellent!
Snare feature.. I mean its Cavies. So yea. Prolly at least top 3 coolest things you've heard and/or seen all summer. As expected.
Clean!

Love the 1995 flashbacks
love the yamaha sound
Pls someone tell me what kinda sticks are they using that creates the scrape at 4:14🙏🏼🙏🏼
When the center snare hit the solo left hand ping? Damn
Best drumline imo
What sticks do they use?
IP FS-4
Extra buttery thin and crispy!!!❤
*DCI Finals Week
I knew from their first performance that they were gonna win percussion and they should’ve placed 1st in my opinion and that’s super hard for me to say bc I’m super biased towards bluecoats
Same
What are those special sticks they’re using sliding on the rim? Seem like Johnny Rabb sticks
The ending lmao, call back to 2011
Holy mother of god
Cutting glass at 5:42. Good Lord.
5:03
1:28 👍
209 reality
ooooooooooooooooooooooo
intro missy
Quad line is scroooong.
At least 70% of these lads are benders without a doubt.
Is Mike McIntosh still the caption head?
i believe so but not sure
Yes he is.
Without equal.
Top Secret has entered the chat : Hold my beer
Top secret drumline is good but they’re nowhere near as advanced as most dci lines
what if they banned dutting...
6:21...disgusting...swear my eyes are deceiving me! How do you clean that??? You're all pretty, congratulations
book was so weak
Wgi or DCI? Drill used to be a part of cavaliers. Posing and dancing doesn't do it for me
@@andrewnance2156 DCI Boston 05 and 06. Magic of Orlando 2004 snare
majority of their book is boring
But CLEAN
Blud doesnt understand musicality
Bro. If your dumb just say it. Lol
So this is what won the Sanford this year? Wow Chino Hills has a harder book than this
Chino Hills is a high school. If you think this book is that easy, just learn it and post it online to prove it.
K… Boston did not play clean. BD did not play clean. You’re not winning a Sandford with major ticks in your show. It’s just not going to happen.

Clean wins, not "harder." If you can't clean the harder then you lose. Simple. All captions in DCI are this way.
Yeah but the book is still dumb easy. And did they copy Boston from last year with those quite shots at 7:27
