what impresses me more than anything is this guys precision. everything is so perfect. every little stick trick, flip, one stick roll (using front and back ends) etc, is so precise and in time. It's truly amazing.
I just realized that he does a righty traditional in the middle there!!!! That's what he does just to show off a littlllllle bit! He's a genius, best tenor player ever
heh. i wish i could say the same, a couple of guys that was in the drumline with me last year at college marched Cavaliers, my old roomate was a front ensemble member for 3 years, he's also a GREAT tenor player.
someone in my school did football and marching band and was able to pull it off because he didnt quit. just because someone says you can't do something doesnt mean you listen it just means you proove them wrong.
I was never in marching band in High School due to athletic commitments, but learned to drum in middle school and still play in rock bands today. One thing I don't understand is the purpose of these solo's. Is it more about showcasing technique than the actual sound? I could juggle my vic-firths all I want, it wouldn't make my band any better..........
Well he doesn't exactly have a band with him in this video. They do these solos because why the hell not try to find out who the best players are each year? They judge on how clean you play(rims, rhythmic accuracy, stroke quality, etc.), technique and (for tenors) how comfortably you move around the drums :)
I know this was years ago but come on man. he composed that whole solo on his own. That just shows you how musical he is. I don't think you understand because you never were in high school band.
Some people are going too extreme, I mean, he didn't do everthing to perfection. He sometimes beats awkwardly, but his so natural arm flow fills in gaps. He is precisely God, though.
This is the only I&E that he didnt drop a stick, which honestly in my opinion doesnt matter, but the reason i pointed it out is because i saw colby beers vid from '04 and there were i think two people that said COlby shouldve won over Tim, and i just thought i would ask the general public, because tim deserved first this year ha ha hands down
@leftshoe0 Im with HotPotatoFever, you dont have to write music then give it to the judge or have to write just to say its on paper. Why would any of them bring up sheet music anyways? This isnt a high school competition. And then would they have the time to bring it all out anyways?
@386niggah lol actually, i figured it out like the day after i posted that comment. its kinda like you flick it forward at just the right angle and it just comes back to your hand
Here in 2020. Love this still.
This is one of the best tenor solos I've ever seen!
Watched this 12 years ago and still watch it today
This is very musical. I love seeing people who can make a solo so musical, instead of just ramming notes down the audience's throat.
Greatest tenor i&e of all time
i honestly think this is the best solo out of his four years
this is my favorite
thats a sweet groove he plays
This time the puffy mallet section was my favorite part!
NEVER gets old
omg, this is why I completely respect marching drummers this is fucking great!!

So much practice condensed in four minutes of glory

@FluffMuffTater , Thats awsome! I wish he was my drumline instructor
To the 5 dislikers, please comment and tell us why you would dislike this.

I think if God wanted to play tenors, it would sound just like this!
why haven't more people watched this!
This guy is a beast!
he won this year and the 2 years after. I&E tenors hasnt been the same since he aged out :/
He's a juggler AND a percussionist lol. WOW!

omg. I just took timjacksons i & e solos from 2004 2003 2006 and 2005 on all different tabs. Then play them all at once it crazy like crazy
2:56 made me instantly weep.. I bursted in tears"
ooooooo my gosh!!!!!
I see this video and go "YEAH I WANNA PRACTICE AND BE LIKE THIS SOME DAY" ... then i see those singles at about 2:56 and lose all hope.
Someone needs to contact Tim and tell him to try shownig his ability on America's Got Talent.

IDK why the hell do they have the Heisman trophy, or MVP awards?

eargasm
i just noticed, but he can play traditional off his right hand haha thats pretty cool
& its sounds almost exactly like the '03 one too
@Drumfun1401 i second that... tim jackson is god's reincarnation
4 people are addicted to the shindig.
This is insane in a strangely subdued way
00:53 Cool at 1:52 its the guitar part to "Cant Stop" by Red Hot Chili Peppers
i just noticed that he was playing cant stop by the rhcp
well it kinda is from that solo but he just added more to that lick and added it to this one from what it sounds like
dude that was sickkk. you like think in 32nd and 64th note rythms holy shizz
@ether11111 He's my drum instructor, so I'll do so
what he can do with one hand, some of our tenors cant even do together, haha
skills
3:47. Pack your $#!+ and start getting excited.
his last year was 2006.
he techs at bluecoats now.
nah those are vega tenor sticks. ehy look like regular snare sticks but theyre a bit smaller & have a nylon tapered end to it made for the tenor drums
0:50 through 2:02 is such a cool sounding part. :D
seriously chrissanders07 did. the Blue Devils Snare tech helps out at his college.
@iLuVsNaRe you have the reasoooooooon
Was that melody part he started playing at 0:49 Can't Stop ny The Red Red Hot Chili Peppers? :O
@chsbassdrummer Yea but he's staff for Bluecoats now
Oh jesus, I didn't think actual musicians really thought that any instrument was a matter of just hitting keys or a head or valves or etc
do they get sheet music from this somewhere or do they write this themselves?
rofl traditional on tenors?! HOLY SCHIEKES!
@HotPotatoFeYou have to write something. You can't go up there with no sheet music. Even if its 30 seconds of a 4 min peice
@leftshoe0 Im with HotPotatoFever, you dont have to write music then give it to the judge or have to write just to say its on paper. Why would any of them bring up sheet music anyways? This isnt a high school competition. And then would they have the time to bring it all out anyways?
... cool story bro
@386niggah lol actually, i figured it out like the day after i posted that comment. its kinda like you flick it forward at just the right angle and it just comes back to your hand
lmao
that was a good one :)
i just ate dinner with scojo
lying is fun!
@A7X6277 thats weird u picked on that. cool
idk. maybe. he moved to Arkansas, where i am for college
lol also part of his '04 solo sounds a bit like his '05 one
@mrnickbeyer sounds like can't stop by the red hot chili peppers hahah
wrist action is suomethin serious

1:40 OMG he did a free-hand
Imagine what he's playing in 2012..
@urcoolcoolcool becuse hes you just saw and herd the most badasst enor player lol
:27 anyone know how he does that viz?
@amkluver12 i think it sounds like a new red hot chilli pepers song
i heard red hot chili peppers in the beginning lol
I guess he likes RHCP
@Ace0wnzSpades For I&E you have to write the music. Not like you can go up there and make shit up for 2-4 mins
I quit football for drum line!
red hot chilli peppers cant stop ?
he didnt flip the stick it bounce back from the rebound
His arms look kinda funny. His chops are so beefy and then his biceps are like smaller haha.
My mind was just raped. omg...
I'm sure tim jackson wouldn't want you to give up. lol
