I played in High School during the early 1980s. IMO all six of them young brothers was spot-on... and I'm so delighted to see them all use traditional style stick grip and control. Old school sound for sure! Nice.
Jon DGAF umm snare drum is nowhere near simple. Their are 40 essential rudiments plus hybrid rudiments that go on for days. Its very complex but nowhere near simple
Awesome job to all of you! I watched the whole thing. I'm a bassist but I love drums. The way I see it, there's no point in criticizing these kids. Aren't they still in high school? A little encouragement goes a long way. Would you rather they not play drums and steal your car or knock you out instead? Regardless of how skilled they are, they are focused on something that will help them express their true selves. That's what's important. You don't have to be Buddy Rich or Tony Royster. Just be good enough to express yourself the way you want to.
***** Ok, if you check my kit playing you would not be thatimpressed I dont think.Still if you know your stuff you could give me some pointers. One guy said my wrists were not strong enough, too much fingers.
That was my first choice. The third guy was also nice the second round. The last three guys seem like they weren’t on the same level as the the first three
I'm watching this cause in band I wanna have the center attention on the three bass drums and I wanna do the biggest and greatest most unforgettable solo ever ;-)
People....why you have to be always judgemental, fuck I enjoy the video for few reason, reason number one they prove they love playing drums and today seeing young boys apply themselves to something instead, wasting time on the street its already an accomplishment, reason number 2, who are you in order to judge? reason 3 haters and experts why don't you post your vids and show the rest of us what did you accomplish?
So many people always want to critique. Remember: these are high school students, not professionals with professional equipment or technique. Each one of them has talent in varying degrees. Just stop hating or trying to "fix" this video with your opinion; it is not needed.
Those are real snare drums, the difference is they prefer a jazz drum set sound I'm guessing you're more into the core style sound of a snare drum. Which is fine everybody has their preference to sound and technique. But what you will find with show style drum lines as they prefer a drum set sound, not tonal bass drums not core style snares but a drum set feel. I used to get in debates with my high school band director all the time about tonal bass drums, like it's no longer a bass drum anymore if its tuned to high. But I eventually realize that he had his preference and I had mine didn't mean neither one of us was wrong.
***** and that's your preference, in music there is no wrong or right way to do things it just what do you prefer. Me myself I have marched both Corp in high school and show style in college I prefer show style that's my preference. Both have different attributes to contribute to a student musician. Just like the music you hear on the radio there are different styles in the world country R&B jazz rap rock and roll and metal the question you have to ask yourself is which one you like better and if you find that one that you like better there's no need to talk down the other genres of music or forms just food for thought.
itd depend on what type of drumming im doing for which snare drum ill use. If im marching im gonna use a really high tension snare with a lot of rebound and a clean quick sound. if i am jazz drumming, id use a different snare drum that is looser and better for jazz drumming.
Y'all keep on drumming! To the rest: 1) Somebody walking into this competition with a corps-tuned snare would have been out of place just like walking into a DCI competition with one of these would be out of place. 2) Drumming is culture. Yes, people like that "old fashioned" stuff. Interesting that some corps groups use traditional grip (technically "wrong" on a flat drum) and even tilt the drum on the harness (antithetical to the harness' intent). Don't bash on one person's expression because it's not yours. I expect to hear one thing when I listen to a corps or corps influenced group and something else when I listen to those that are not. Celebrate it all!
Thanks bro!!!!!!! Appreciate your kind words!!! And your knowledge. Many people (THAT ARE SUPPOSEDLY EXPERTS IN THESE COMMENTS) dont understand that Traditional grip was created because the drums were not leveled off and were tilted. SCV understands this concept as I have seen them play on tilted drums. Usually tilted so that the left hand is not at a disadvantage.... This is why match grip was even more prevalent when harnesses which kept the drums leveled off was utilized.
***** Oh no problem, but this is why Santa Clara VANGUARD played with the tilt. see 2005. Blue Stars just went to this as well 2014. Of course it can be done (traditional on a flat surface) as these kids marching DCI are some of the best in the country. But the actual technique of using the tilt was due to marching slings and the drums were not leveled off so traditional grip was used. The traditional styles was created because the drums were not leveled. Now that the drums are leveled due to harnesses one would think match would be more prevalent. as match grip can actually be more universally profitable as in playing in the pits with melodic instruments, tenors etc. But it's drumming and we embrace and love it all. PEACE!!!
There is a lot of negative comments but at least they are aspiring to do something positive and creative and in school getting an education and learning to play an instrument. Those are all good things and they should be commended and encouraged. There will always be someone better than us but it's about doing your best and enjoying it.
***** Dude shut up, its the damn lion king lick. Pull out the music and show me which portion/measure was wrong.... Its not even a difficult piece lolol
Needs some work on heights and technique, but, there was some choppy stuff in there. Better than most "Drum Duel" scenarios I've seen. Good job dudes. Keep drumming...
The one in the red had the ONLY hatorade face when that second boy played... like "That ain't shit" only to come up short on his go. so much so that the boy to his left.. The fourth boy was looking down on him correcting his technique. The second boy and that last boy were the nicest.
Never understood marching snares that sound like set snares. Dynamics would've been great so we can hear what you're doing. But other than that, good job everybody! It takes courage to do what you did.
No such thing as properly tensioned drum lolol Are you serious? Never tell anyone that. You are on youtube, I suggest you go look up west point hellcats. TRADITIONAL DRUMMING. You will see the folly in your comment hopefully.
This isn't Drum Corps International or World Guard International. This style of marching drumline requires a different sound, not the crisp, sharp sound of kevlar weave snare heads. Don't bash these guys just because their style doesn't conform to DCI or WGI standards.
Thanks for the speedy reply. Is there a model name besides 1970 ludwig? Is it wood with chrome wrap? or chrome drum? Also what's Aaron's last name? thanks-Dave
My school is show style and we have high tension snares with harnesses because the original director wanted to modernize the drumline. I believe it wasn't the greatest move but even so, we remain show style with a cool drumline. I'm on single tenor at my school. We wear the tenors like these guys wear their snares.
Its traditional drumming. Do you think goddamn civil war snares sounded like DCI tuning??? Did they teach you guys anything about drumming? There were no kevlar heads.
Andre Wicks yeah. Watermelon. They need harnesses id they can afford them and high tension heads. They all sound almost like fucking concert snares with straps.
I played in High School during the early 1980s. IMO all six of them young brothers was spot-on... and I'm so delighted to see them all use traditional style stick grip and control. Old school sound for sure! Nice.
I just love the drums....better than any other instrument, so simple yet complex.
Jon DGAF umm snare drum is nowhere near simple. Their are 40 essential rudiments plus hybrid rudiments that go on for days. Its very complex but nowhere near simple
@@dipout9570 he just said it was so complex
I think the guy in all black was tbe first one to realize that it is not about who can go the fastest, but who sounds the bea
the one dressed like he was going to prom was the best
lol right
Awesome job to all of you! I watched the whole thing. I'm a bassist but I love drums.

Where my boy Nick Cannon at?
I think the black guy was the best
+Robert Adamek lololololol
THERE ALL BLACK FOR GOD SAKES MATE
Which one?
+Aimee Gabrielle Aguinaldo the black one
There all black
I remember the civil war
Second from the right has the best sense of time and clean playing.
Second guy was the best. Classy, and NO HIGH TENSION. The way a snare should be
lol after like 5 seconds of every one, it just sounded like a bunch of jumbled up banging
Good overall playing from all of them
+sdjmalik yeah enjoyed that, some proper practice went into those plays. good post
not really, techniques are quite bad. the girls was the worst.
Guy in white tie did some fast flams. You must be good if you think are not so good
sure they were fast, but the grace notes on flams are supposed to be low, and most their heights were only up, with sloppy techniques.
***** Ok, if you check my kit playing you would not be thatimpressed I dont think.Still if you know your stuff you could give me some pointers. One guy said my wrists were not strong enough, too much fingers.
Seriously though the guy w the white tie and brass snare had the best chops. They're all great though.
Pappa Beats he plays for jsu
Do you guys know what snare hes playing with
@@vipergameplay7613 no he doesn't
O 4 e o 6 , tocam muito.
Os outros fazem barulhos quase iguais e sem muita coordenação .
Spoiler alert, they all sound the same after the first ten seconds
Very nice drumming! They all performed well, but my choice is the second guy from the right.
nottobey Thats my kid.....
+HEZEKYHWH what high school I can do all of this
emokyle piczko Huntington High School Shreveport Louisiana.
Thxs
HEZEKYHWH go Shreveport I live by Huntington
They need to put high tension heads on those
Yea, they have a long ringing drum, and they have a VERY LOOSE snare
Pksilenop Gaming and uenwmcchxxyxxjcxkzjddjzufjdduw of are the only one who knows how many ojebvsdgceeyrhbeevkurn
Vilchez85 ixrac o
Vilxxmxchez85

I think Drummer #2 pretty much gave everyone else a lesson. He needs a drum line.
Hank Gant he plays for jsu
Viper Gameplay he do?? He must b a crab??
That was my first choice. The third guy was also nice the second round. The last three guys seem like they weren’t on the same level as the the first three
@@vipergameplay7613 No he doesnt.
HEZEKYHWH probably not now but did
I like the guy w the hat Bc he wasn’t just beating on the drum he actually made a beat that I could follow
the guy with the tie on fucking killlllled it
I'm watching this cause in band I wanna have the center attention on the three bass drums and I wanna do the biggest and greatest most unforgettable solo ever ;-)
The first, second and fourth were the lit of them all
Man...I love the sound of mylar heads for solo snares. I wish I knew more about what drums, heads and tunings they used.
Great job all of you..nicely done
SALUDO DESDE LA REPÚBLICA DOMINICANA 👌
Just wanna point out that guy 2 plays SCV Flammus :D
Vaalnn999999999
second dude was playing flammus
4th one my favourite.
was it just me or did all of these sound basically the same?
just you
i mean they dont sound like, exactly the same, but they sounds relatively similar
+HeresWhatsNext they were different at first it sounded the same but they added a little taste to each one
+HeresWhatsNext Theres only so much you can do on a snare drum
non of it sounded the same what are you listening too. at a fast speed sure you just here pudadadadaddaadadadada
They're all nice on the drums. # 2 (neck tie) & #3 (red top) #6 (M) are fast as hell. Red might be the fastest tho.
Alrighty! Imagine this... Someone with drum corps chops playing this style drumming. Muah muah tasty beats. It'd be so groovy

I'll take a REAL snare drum over one of those super high tension tin cans anytime.
I think it's just the Mylar head
***** Yeah, I know. I Like these, don't like those (high tension things).

If I'm ever leading an army into battle, ima find that second dude (the one with the white tie) to play whilst we march.
Red jacket waz clean all da way through
I love it work on dynamics speed sticking playing clean.
for me the best is the 2nd on the right. does the stick tricks count?
Y'all keep on drumming!

Let's fight ALL our wars this way! I'm talking to you Assad - if you a real gangsta show up with your snares for battle!
I liked the one with the drumsticks the best.
deoman The one with pants, yes.
Dreams just got shattered.

That is the result of being along on your room . Fast hands :v . If you know what i mean xD .
Btw . I salute your talents man .
lololololol
Dude in the red hoodie now plays snare for Alcorn in college
Tuning issues, certainly; I still love the sound of mylar! Takes a good deal more chops to play on than kevlar and sounds so much better.
is this woodside high school in newport news ? i can only think of one high school named "wolverines" this is my old school
Mansfield Louisiana.
Kenneth Wilson
Kenneth Wilson jjjj
I like how snare professionals are critiquing them in the comments
I felt uncomfortable with that one guy constantly starring at the camera
Always admire marching band drum line!!!
Rudimental drumming is alive and well.
At 3:36 was that the lion king lick he played? awesome.
Yes it was.
o
***** Dude shut up, its the damn lion king lick. Pull out the music and show me which portion/measure was wrong.... Its not even a difficult piece lolol
The guy that went second was the best tbh
0:34 anyone know where i can get a pair of sticks like these for my flute band here in Northern Ireland?
between gray shirt and feathers were the 2 best ones
Needs some work on heights and technique, but, there was some choppy stuff in there. Better than most "Drum Duel" scenarios I've seen. Good job dudes. Keep drumming...
Im diggin the combat boots for most of the outfits/uniforms haha
I like the way they drum,but I don't like the way their drums sound.good jobs dudes
this is amazing no joke
Great job all of yall got chops
Headdress nailed it.. complete focus.
For me the guy in red played the best but I didn't care for his attitude and general demeanour. Feathers was completely outclassed in this line up.
that's awesome.... came from western branch bruins and I know the Newport News wolverines lol...
Mansfield*
The one in the red had the ONLY hatorade face when that second boy played... like "That ain't shit" only to come up short on his go. so much so that the boy to his left.. The fourth boy was looking down on him correcting his technique. The second boy and that last boy were the nicest.
The boy after the red bey he is good
Still better than drumline the movie
No where to be found
Plz someone help me what kind of strap does the first guy have?
+Evan TV REGULAR BLACK STRAP. CAN BE FOUND AT ANY MUSIC STORE. ALL OF THEM HAVE THE SAME STRAP.
These would be nice chops with better tuning
wish i could play like that
dude in the red got it hands-down
nice job gentleman
Never understood marching snares that sound like set snares. Dynamics would've been great so we can hear what you're doing. But other than that, good job everybody! It takes courage to do what you did.
guy in the red has the only properly tensioned drum
No such thing as properly tensioned drum lolol Are you serious? Never tell anyone that. You are on youtube, I suggest you go look up west point hellcats. TRADITIONAL DRUMMING. You will see the folly in your comment hopefully.

love the second drummer!! better sense of groove. Does anyone know what snare he is playing? Also his name?
Yeah its a 1970 Ludwig snare with a Falams K-series II head. 15".
his name is Aaron.
Thanks for the speedy reply. Is there a model name besides 1970 ludwig? Is it wood with chrome wrap? or chrome drum? Also what's Aaron's last name?
thanks-Dave
davetube11 No its just a ludwig 1970's model. 15" snare/ his last name is Jefferson..
Feathers... All 💯
I liked the guy who went tapity tappity tap tap tappity tappity tap tap tap tappity tap tappity tap.
I hate saggy snares
SaucyD agreed we did that with our line at my school and it sounds 10 times better #2aAllSuperiorBackAgain
I swear
Snares and saggin.......
the one with the feathers on their head was using no kind of wrist movement, straight arms the entirety of both solos.
Agreed
My school is show style and we have high tension snares with harnesses because the original director wanted to modernize the drumline. I believe it wasn't the greatest move but even so, we remain show style with a cool drumline. I'm on single tenor at my school. We wear the tenors like these guys wear their snares.
they sound decent but they look nervous lol. I remember those days
the second one is the best
Watching this in stonewall lol
Louisiana??? WHATS UP NEIGHBOR!!?!?! LOLOL
Lol chilling wassup
How old a e these kids? Damn good!!!
the one in the red came from my school old Acadian Middle School
All of the drums sound terrible. They need high tension heads. That's not what a marching snare is supposed to sound like.😂
That's how they suppose to sound with traditional marching style.
Its traditional drumming. Do you think goddamn civil war snares sounded like DCI tuning??? Did they teach you guys anything about drumming? There were no kevlar heads.
Thank you!!!!! Field drums DO NOT sound like modern DCI drums..
Go peep Cold Steal snare line. They're on something serious.
Andre Wicks yeah. Watermelon. They need harnesses id they can afford them and high tension heads. They all sound almost like fucking concert snares with straps.
why are the high tension snares tuned like traditionals?
because of the heads they're using.
@swagdipper123...:D didn't I battle you before....you and your sec leader...
What is the kenneths last name (the drummer)
4th dude had more control and creativity
White tie smoked it. Great job to all keep practicing. Female nice tricks. You all should relax and have more fun with playing, too serious.
#2 win for technical performance ; #6 for technique... #5 just do you boo boo.
When I know the guy on the left end
Mylar sucks on a high tension drum loved #2 He wins
so who won
what kind of drum is the silver snare drum
NCCU use those kind of drums but they are not as loose as that
I hope their not that loose. Those drums need tuning bad
I bet she feels cool with those feathers
0:55 - 0:59 sounded like the drum intro for Painkiller by Judas Priest.
hights?
The 2nd to the last was good 😊
The girl kicked their ass!
Shade Smoke the girl was ass her solos were so simple
DID YOU JUST ASSUME THEIR GENDER?
Fletcher Vail thats a girl. I know because i marched with fair park band with her
yeah she did the best, it seemed simple but it had more like rythym to it, it sounded better
EarBlasterStudios that's not even her solo it's a jsu solo and she played the same thing twice just faster the second time
In the black sound the best to me
