Bluecoats play show music at the Rockford, IL show on 7/15/12 Thanks to Alex Hinds for helping with Audio! Watch with good speakers/headphones, and watch in HD Canon 5DmkII 24-105L Tascam DR-07mkII
Maybe so. But if you go back to 2010 they copied a whole lotta notes/elements from that show which is why I actually prefer that year to 2012. But hey, to each their own.
This editing is reaaaally cool. It feels really gonzo and super street (or I guess 'in the lot' since its drumline). This is kickass man, very creative. Well done
my school has 3 and they al have broken in completely different ways ie the back snaps the screw that holds the mount breaks the hinge nut gets rubbed down untill your harness isnt solid
Those are just regular IP snare sticks (Probably Casellas) but they have these little Innovative Percussion mutes on the butt ends. I've seen them available on Musician's Friend before. It's just a little black rubbery kind of thing that's meant to put on snare sticks to make them into practice sticks. They just used them for a different timbre and put them on the butt ends so they could flip it back and forth between the muted sound and regular tip. Cool stuff.
We played hertas, paradiddlediddles, rolls, cha-chudas, cheese cha-chudas, inverts, flam taps, fast flam taps, singles! And it's always been my dream to be part of the Bluecoats. Unfortunately, I've never made it past the first round or got a call back yet. One more year to try though!
I just learned the 2nd movement mostly from this video - THANK YOU! Btw for those looking at the snare transcription of the 2nd movement on snarescience... it's like 80% correct. Check the lot videos for the right stickings because the transcription is reeeally dummed-down, haha.
Scoops, they take sound and project it forward and up to the box. Otherwise a lot of the snare sound is going to the ground, which is kind of like a horn angle facing straight down.
It's called 'dutting'; It's basically count out the rests, but saying numbers takes too much time for high tempo parts, so they 'dut'. it's only used in actual drum corp and DCI bands, you'd never see it on a drum set. But thanks for asking.
If you think these guys aren't playing the fuck out these drums... you're wrong. So wrong it's hilarious. They easily were one of the best lines (if not THE best) in DCI this year, hands-down. Show some freaking respect.
I mo need ta go change my shotes nah! Whoever wrote these cadences: Genius. The percussionists performing: Virtuossos. If I've heard better I don't remember it! Well done Gents and (Ladies if you were there but I missed ya or you wrote the music).
I've played on a lot of lines. Everybody wants the fast rolls and the cheese inverts, but I'm here to tell you. :24 to :26 is the most impressive part of this video. Simple beats played cleanly beats all.
Im sorry what corps do you march? oh and which do you play tenors,bass, or snare? If your line is better than this and without duts i'm dying to hear them
@Luke A dude duts are what you use on field to make sure everyone attacks together. They use a met or drum major for tempo. If you aren't used to this idea I'm assuming that your drumline is AWEFUL. Besides, how do these clean beats not
Yeah just so you know. Soccer guy here made a snare cam trying to show the world "how much he ticked" his trolling hard as shit bro. You need to realize that.
Corps don't use Tama because they don't make equipment for the front ensemble. For example, lines that use pearl use adams marimbas or lines that use yamaha drums use yamaha front ensemble equipment. It's part of the contracts. Sooooo nobody in DCI uses Tama.
the most _groovy. book. ever._
Their 2015 was better.
Maybe so. But if you go back to 2010 they copied a whole lotta notes/elements from that show which is why I actually prefer that year to 2012. But hey, to each their own.
Quad line was so beast that year, then again the bluecoats tenors are always great
People wonder why i love this drumline. Then, I show them this video. love the Bluecoats!!!!!!!
I got motion sickness from the camera operator.
Best drumline I have ever heard and I was on the drumline at USC..
You've never looked into DCI?
lol vanguard got third, and their line was sick. But I marched on the quad line at coats. We got 2nd.
Dang! This drumline blends so well and the clarity is amazing. Everything is very crisp!
how dynamically good they were and the cleanliness is what makes this sound amazing
I'm so glad I have a sub-woofer in my room. Those bass-runs are just incredible.
Thank you for the wonderful audio quality. Well done.
my favorite tenor line/book ever. good job guys
This should be a movie.
I love the tuning on those snares.
now THIS is a true drumline. Straight groovin' with just the right amount of complexity and flow
words cant describe my love for the Bluecoats drumline
I really love the fast pace camera. With the quick zoom and everything. Adds great effect.
I can't stop watching the beginning of this..
Those Quads
This editing is reaaaally cool. It feels really gonzo and super street (or I guess 'in the lot' since its drumline). This is kickass man, very creative. Well done
Sooo... Many.... Grooves..... Bluecoats are ROCKIN'
The dynamics in this are fantastic. Slowed down a little at times, but other than that pretty frickin amazing, especially their doubles
before the big tenor break huh? interesting add...
Never heard a buzz roll that clean with that many people.
I watched/listened to this with really expensive [borrowed] Bose headphones... it's so lifelike!
3:24 holy shit base 1 did a full 360
fab
This is exactly why I love the Bluecoats
my dude onye is kickin ass with this line. this is prob the best line ive ever seen in person
I want our drumline at school to get those harnesses !
you definitely dont..
why not, Mr.Conlee?
my school has 3 and they al have broken in completely different ways ie the back snaps the screw that holds the mount breaks the hinge nut gets rubbed down untill your harness isnt solid
ok thanks!

I love that meaty, resonant bass sound.
Non, Il s'appelle TJ. Right end snare. You can find him in Mystiques vids this year too.
3:00. love it when you're jammin and another band marches by. best feeling ever
I love the tuning of all these drums. Whoo!!!!
Are they saying "booty" at 1:47?
Lol thats awesome. No one in pur colorguard has a booty haha but thats definitely something like my drumoine would do
OMG the tuning is amazing. especially the snares
This is the most perfect anything of everything
oh my god the rumble of the bass on good headphones/speakers.
Man there's crazy bass splits every 10 seconds
Legendary video
I can't tell who's more badass: Center snare this year for coats, or center for Cavies in 2011..
those bass drums sound amazing
SO CLEAN
The bass drums are so frickin' cool.
The snare tech for my indoor line is the outside snare on the left. Taha's awesome!
The Chairmen, The Phantom Recliners, Carolina Cradles, The Ottoman Crusaders, Playstation Crest, The Cots...

rarick wrote my highschool's music this year, its pretty crazy

Great production too
No, drummers are a different breed of people and whatever they say seems to work for them. We do what we please as drummers.
It's how they stay in time.
It's called 'dutting'; It's basically count out the rests, but saying numbers takes too much time for high tempo parts, so they 'dut'. it's only used in actual drum corp and DCI bands, you'd never see it on a drum set. But thanks for asking.
From snare player to snare player.....THAT WAS GREAT!!!
They Should of won drums this year. Hands Down
If you think these guys aren't playing the fuck out these drums... you're wrong. So wrong it's hilarious. They easily were one of the best lines (if not THE best) in DCI this year, hands-down. Show some freaking respect.
Tom Rarick, legendary
I LoVe this video, l. I've watched it about 20x
my babies... have them all
snare science has a good transcription of the opener and drum break
Hey great video! Thanks for posting it! I was wondering what camera you used to film this? It's a great quality video. Thanks again! (:
That tenor line is full of really good looking people.
Amazing sound quality
Great recording man. Sounds and looks great!
Which is not to say that rest isn't great! It is!
To the posts of ticks. Rockford. In July. Finals is August. That's still early season if you ask me.
Nice man, three snares that can play some flam fives. I'm so proud. When was the last time you marched coats?
I think I'll have to agree with that.. Dan is a monster both in chops and physique
Look how early in the season it is..
I mo need ta go change my shotes nah! Whoever wrote these cadences: Genius. The percussionists performing: Virtuossos. If I've heard better I don't remember it! Well done Gents and (Ladies if you were there but I missed ya or you wrote the music).
i love the bluecoats, forever and always haha
Pssst.... Soccerdrummer13 was the end snare at Bluecoats in '12 and in the center 5 at Music City Mystique this season. He's trollin you hard bud.
this book is insane
Why does no one ever comment on how good the bass drums are in these videos?
Oh my god.. That tuning..
I've played on a lot of lines. Everybody wants the fast rolls and the cheese inverts, but I'm here to tell you. :24 to :26 is the most impressive part of this video. Simple beats played cleanly beats all.
Lovin' the clear scoops
i fucking love bluecoats
Did you use a different clip for 6:28? I was flipping out like where in the hell did those come from.. lol
Great audio work.
flows so hard. i love it
Awesome, I'll definetly learn this music!
Im sorry what corps do you march? oh and which do you play tenors,bass, or snare? If your line is better than this and without duts i'm dying to hear them
Why was the Tenor break not included in this video?
Oh yes, I love it too. It's so cool.
Love the visuals
Bass line...play louder!!! I'm starving for it!
1:35 the guy to the left of Onye is my hero
I'm just saying that he was IN this line. He was the right end snare. He wasn't being serious... lol...
what don't the judges see in these guys.. honestly they should be beating BD every year.
+ the fact that you're in bluecoats right?
@Luke A dude duts are what you use on field to make sure everyone attacks together. They use a met or drum major for tempo. If you aren't used to this idea I'm assuming that your drumline is AWEFUL. Besides, how do these clean beats not
Snare and Tenor tuning: Can I get an amen?
If you dont already know. Bluecoats got 2nd overall percussion.... so how do they suck
their drumline instructor is on the Tama Marching Percussion videos.. why do they have yamaha then?
Yeah just so you know. Soccer guy here made a snare cam trying to show the world "how much he ticked" his trolling hard as shit bro. You need to realize that.
he doesnt march at Bloo at all. nope. he just got a snare cam from a member
1:33-1:42 they're just grooving!
and you know they're saying "dut" right.... and why u hatin on all the dci vids?... did you not make a corps this past summer?
Corps don't use Tama because they don't make equipment for the front ensemble. For example, lines that use pearl use adams marimbas or lines that use yamaha drums use yamaha front ensemble equipment. It's part of the contracts. Sooooo nobody in DCI uses Tama.
Well yeah but when i watch the I&E solos they all say "corp" not "corps" but i guess you're still right.
