So clean. Anytime someone talks crap about DCI, I tell them to try to get 10 people to do ANYTHING in unison as precisely as a snare line. Much less something so intricate and difficult. Nicely done, gentlemen.
I love watching cavaliers battery videos and hearing the rest of the corp in my head because the amount of times I've seen the show is mind boggling. I love the fact that the cavaliers battery has always walked the fine line between "flashy and tasty" for so long. I played tenors in high school matching band for three years and i remember a distinct conversation with our drum instructor the year after we had our best show, complaining to him that the music was too easy/not challenging enough after the previous year and him telling me something to the effect of "we can piss or masturbate all over the field with fancy stuff. But thats never a good idea. U gotta be tasty with it". That idea is still stuck with me more than a decade later. And the cavaliers battery has always done a masterful job of striking this balance. Especially in this show.
my god. A snare line that big. and it's clean. then again, it's the cavaliers. :) but still! It sounds like one loud snare drum! and the basses. mindblowing. :) The tenors. God.. wow. :)
yea i hear that alot for many other lines like blue devils man i hear of ppl coming all the way rrom the East coast over here to the west coast to work with them

Pretty late to this but as a person in the marching activity rn, I’d like to know which one of us has implied that, as I would have no clue. “Dirt” is definitely not acceptable as far as I know 🙂
I'd have to agree with everything Insdrummer said. If you want emotion as well, watch the front ensemble. From my experience, or atleast how I was taught, was to play with emotion. To let all the musical expression out while playing.
My dad was a Cavie and he talks about Cav things all the time. "Splooie" for instance...when I ask what it means, he tells me, "If I tell you, I'll have to kill you". They are a very secretive group of men. lol
Commenting from far in the future, but it is a VERY secretive thing, but we all know what Splooie means and where it comes from. We've been yelling it for decades.

Virgil Richardson 👌
Lots of lines ram notes. This drill.
Ok. The cavaliers in the early 2000s was a group to be reckoned with. They were amazing. Now as far as this drum line being clean ......no
20 years later still one of the cleanest lines I’ve ever heard. Frameworks is goated
My dad played in the cavalier’s drum line, and now, I’m a drummer like him, Go cavaliers!
18 years later still one of the best
Crazy how much better video has gotten in the past 15 years. This looks like something out of the 19th Century.
The Cavalier drum lines 1988-2005 are the gold standard.
The lost art of the sticks in.
Has it already been this long?!
Yeah man I hope they don’t do anything crazy like change the uniform or get rid of the bent leg. That would be wild.
That last sticks in is so tasty even two decades later.
I love how it could be only one snare, one tenor, and one bass...and someone just hit copy and paste =D that's how clean they are.
I LOVE CAVIES!
to be in the cavaliers drumline is to be the best of the best!
I like to see 10 snare drummers march again in the future
Boston 2019
That groove at 1:06 is unreal.

Amazing! So stunning beautiful to listen to!
one of my band directors was on the snareline
These guys are outstanding, but as an ex Kiltie drummer, the Cavaliers from 1968 were,in my opinion, the best EVER!
Still cleanest warm up I have ever heard!
my god. A snare line that big. and it's clean.
then again, it's the cavaliers. :)
but still! It sounds like one loud snare drum!
and the basses. mindblowing. :) The tenors. God..
wow. :)
I can't believe cadets took drums this year! BS! Cavies are clean as fuck!!! Thx for posting!
Unbelievably clean for a snare line with 10 players on it. I forget how much this show made use of Moeller strokes.
hi i'm from germany and our best drum & bugle corps are the starriders but these guys are much better this is very awesome great druming
Boy, would I kill to get my hands on the sheets for that snare break in the beginning!
that splitt-roll @ 1:15 is awesome
I love their bass tuning!
that is the cleanest line i've ever seen. jesus
yea i hear that alot for many other lines like blue devils man i hear of ppl coming all the way rrom the East coast over here to the west coast to work with them
Clean is the ultimate hype.
I'm playing this in my school's winter concert
Are there any vids on YT that feature the original Cavie Walk beat? The 6/8 one they used to march off the field with back in the 80's?
the signature cavaliers mark time bounce

@emuman4evr
Erm, fight club's vocal. If you watch the entire show, you can hear the vocals. :D
oh my god this is pissss cleannnn
Is this a mr.clean commercial?
I love when it only looks like one snare, one tenor, and one bass, and someone just copied and pasted that one for the rest of the section =D
The best college drumline is probably better than some of the lower Corps but, the top Corps are the pinnacle of this type of drumming.
That split triplet roll is the craziest thing ever
1:14 always gives me chills
nice triplet roll at the end there.
man soooooooo clean
Nice hights and sound
@danielfaucher Its part of their 2002 show
That's the people on the line doing "dups." Dups are used to count out rests in cadences and music.
SO PERFECT. OH MY GOD.
@indiman5000 No, this is the full tempo of the show... they do sound weird though...
3:27 bass splits holy shit!
Fucking insane. Those snares. God damn.
Damm these boy's are nice as hell
damn, amazing stick heights
This is better than the actual finals performance.
Perfection
Hey, I think I see my drumline instructor squatting in front of tenors. Shout out to Mr Brennan!
Chicks dig clean beats.
and it was sick!
Tut tut tut! Awesome
before dirt was "acceptable"
Pretty late to this but as a person in the marching activity rn, I’d like to know which one of us has implied that, as I would have no clue. “Dirt” is definitely not acceptable as far as I know 🙂
The flubbed attack in the tenor feature on finals night would like a word
You sure? This line is hella clean but that split triplet roll was very "ehhh" even until finals night.
My drum teacher was on the quad line :D
Soooo clean and tasty. If they were this clean in Finals performance, they would have won by even MOAR.
The dude in the background really loves fivelet rolls
I'd have to agree with everything Insdrummer said. If you want emotion as well, watch the front ensemble. From my experience, or atleast how I was taught, was to play with emotion. To let all the musical expression out while playing.
@timartin91 what are we talking about this video or blue devils 2003?......
this is the drum feature and the closer
@PeanutButterGorilla Forgive me for asking (brass player), but what is a split roll?
@PeanutButterGorilla wasnt a split roll it was split singles
from 1:48 to 2:00
it sounds like the snares are coming in a 32nd note early on the tight buzzes
thats the REAL cavies
That literally sounds like like one quad and one snare everytime they play
Does anyone have snare music for the drum feature? I'm dying to learn that lick at 0:28
yeah, the only one i know doesn't is phantom
anyone know where to get the closer music?
0:10 so cool!
anyone know where can i get the music sheet for this?
at 3:29 they say something else, sounds kind of like "sticky", at 3:38ish they say "lars, father mother."
oh ok thanks i always get confused with them. Still pretty sick!
@ANGELSandBlink44 it was a split roll
which one is huei?!
i think he's the second from the right
that's corps.
corp it the abbreviation for corporation
the 3rd snare for the left looks funny its the hair haha
what caption award didn't they win?
My dad was a Cavie and he talks about Cav things all the time. "Splooie" for instance...when I ask what it means, he tells me, "If I tell you, I'll have to kill you". They are a very secretive group of men. lol

yes it would be. either that or it's already broken =P
What do they say 3:29?
magic :D
@azahnd82 *facepalm* yeah I think all the girls in the Cavies will appreciate the compliment...
Do they have to cluck?
oh frameworks. how you get my excited.
fight club sounds great in this
who was teching this line?
My mistake. I realized that.
Score?
I've read it's supposed to be a Metallica reference to Lars Ulrich.
Clean as fuck! Did they win drums this year?
My favorite part is when the basses play at 2:40 :D
one word...space
whats making that 'duck' noise
Bret Kuhn need to instruct the Cavies battery again. I hate their drumline now...
=..(
@PeanutButterGorilla If you listen closely your statement is wong someone rips the last diddle of the split :) have a nice day
@wolfguy5020 the average for a corp is id say about 8-10
4:12-4:15 ! Holy F**k !!!
Those shots sound like guns
@flipboitj hey now just because the madison scouts dont have girls play doesnt mean anything i was in the madison scouts for a year and my dad for ten
