I've always been jealous of the drumline as a wind player. they seem to have so much fun doing this with all the calling and funny shit they do during the shows and practice.

You can just tell these guys love what they do

It's really great how much fun they're having... All of the high fives and random verbal crap lol

8:18 casual talk with a drum major during run through

I don't know how i got here, but its amazing

Closest thing I've seen to what it's like marching on the field. You can kinda hear what's going on but you mainly just listen to each other and do your thing. It's a blur and you're going on pure talent and muscle memory from playing these licks literally thousands of times. Back when I marched we didn't have Go Pros, count yourselves lucky the technology you guys have these days to remember how great percussion and marching is. You can't describe it unless you've done it. Way to go Bloooooo! You've deserved this for a while.

I can't get over how damn good these snare drummers are.

*5:36** IS MY FAV PART LOL* *I love how everyone genuinely loves what they are doing our there and how they are all like family and goof around with each other!*

7:27 "come here often?"

2:32 "NEVER AGAIN"

At 12:38, I can't even imagine knowing what everyone is thinking, knowing that that was the last moment they would ever play of their show.

10:22 Lol just in case the Front Ensemble needed to hear those duts

4:13 Ja-ta-ta-ta ssss-dut... dut... PIZZA!

4:34-4:36 "I love you... I miss you"

It's the little things like when he shakes the guardswoman's hand and the fist bump right before the snare feature are so wholesome because you can tell they all have a level of respect for one another. You can tell with the audibles and stuff that they live what they do. This was a very good show.

My friend showed me this when It was released and it was my first time seeing what a drum corps was. Here I am now getting ready to march my first season of drum corps ever with legends. Thank you for starting my love for drumcorps.

Imagine what would or could happen if many of these players didn't have to quit at age-out. Imagine the top band, or an All-star mix, perform (and getting paid to) at Super Bowl half time, where fans get to see amazingly athletic maneuvers and hear full stadium Drum Corps Sound.

6:39 drumstick on the floor gets brutally stepped on R.I.P so sad :'(

4:15 PIZZA! 4:17 Kara Kara Kara killin' it! Ooo Zazki 4:34 I love you, I miss you. 5:36 Ja, Ja, Ja, Ja- woody- a- ta- 5:42 (I can't understand what they said) I GOT IT!

snare science should do a solo dissection on the opening snare lick, they never do solo dissections anymore. that shit is tight son.

Needs more 4-door minivan...

I love how excited these guys are to perform. I just hopped on 2nd bass for my highschool drumline and I get so hyped when we perform , can't wait for the next year's to come

5:37 I’m a colorguard girl, but things like this makes me wish I was in drumline

the drumline is just a perpetual "me and the boys" scene

Truly amazing to see the obvious bond and chemistry between these people! Really shows that Drum Corps is so much more than just marching and playing epic music!

I love you. I miss you lol

WHEN THE TRUMPET CAME IN I DIED IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!! I'm a snare player and freaking BEAUTIFUL!!!! super jealous.

I love how you can hear them singing the non-percussion parts when they aren’t playing

litterally have watched this a crap load of times one of my favorites also the counting tho

this makes me want to go back and relive marching band.

Oh man this takes me back to being on the drumline in my high school. God those were some of the BEST times in my life. I miss marching so much! It was just a blast! Our band was never this big but its not about the size of the band, its about how well u get along with ur band family. and that is what band is all about. Family. I miss being on the field. experiencing the rush of playing in front of people, knowing what i had to do when i stepped foot on that field. I loved every single moment of it!

I march snare for my high school, so I can only imagine the excitement and adrenaline all of them had when they were playing the last few measures. Truly amazing

Why would anyone dislike this video

Oh this brings up memories. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

The amount of swag and finesse these guys have is immeasurable. You can feel the energy through the screen

8:07 omg what are they doing xD Great job btw. It's great to see you have so much fun while being so good at the drums

Great moves keep it up :) proud of you

4:34 did he just

By far my favorite cam of them all, the energy is infectious

I love how friendly and supportive they are they seem like a super fun/good group of people

Really hope we get to see an on field battery cam from their last run through

5:32 Best Vocals.. 😂

I love the small talk and fun in between. You can tell that was their last show, victory run, theyre so nerve free and just having fun

As I recall we marched our hearts out when we knew we weren't being judged. We placed 13th in prelims year. DCI asked us to perform exhibition while the judges tallies were calculated. We killed it. Later Every. Single. Official said had we performed that well in prelims we would have made the top 12. Prelims are beastly.

This is my favorite "on-field perspective" video so far ~ really let's you see what goes into delivering such a show ~

6:34 *"Hoes around me"* I love how genuinely into it these guys are. I'm happy they got such an audience for this show, lmao God knows they deserve it

This man deserves a thank you, this is the video that got me into drum corps and band all together. It feels like it was yesterday that I was trying to pad along to this in seventh grade. I am now going into my first year marching and independent group this season. So thank you whoever uploaded this video you’ve changed my life for the better!!

I’m so jealous but I love it! I’m a big colts fan and seeing you guys playing on the Indianapolis Colts Football Field is just amazing! Marching band is a huge play in my life so being able to play on this field is a big dream! Good job guys and keep working hard!

8:08 kills me everytime

God I love their tuning so much. Those rimshots sound so crisp, and they have a great resonant quality that I don't hear anywhere else. Been trying to tune my snare like this forever. IMHO best tuning in DCI, but I'm sure I'm gonna get shit on for saying that...

has to be one of my favorite DCI shows ever. It is just so creative, i think they really earned the title they got.

You guys are so lucky you have no idea.. In my country marching bands don't even exist. Every time I watch these videos, I cry because they're so beautiful and awesome💖 I'm a drummer myself but I play an acoustic set. I'd do anything to be in a marching band, playing a tenor or snare drum

did any body eles get the chills at 8:30

Anyone else looking for the trumpet guy?

Good GOD that lick at 11:13...followed by the singles. My favorite of 2016.

5:16 me building the puzzle in lego Star Wars

I love you, I miss you.

The bluecoats are amazing

I'm a freshman in high school and I play euphonium/marching baritone and I have always wanted to march for a drum corps for dci! I really want to when I'm older. It's a dream of mine. It looks like so much fun and the amount of work these talented people put into these shows are absolutely amazing!!

This is the type of show I’ve always dreamed of performing. There will be nothing like this show ever again. So drumline/groove/jazz heavy.

The coolest thing ever. Love the chanting!

that guy in front of you with the floppy ears 😂

8:55 Ben Gunnarson from the Trumpet soloist video. I stopped at exactly that part that he was on the ramp in his video to find him in Matt Allen's video.

Most amazing marching band video I've seen, that you so much!

When he said "dah dah dah dahdah dah" I felt that😭❤

Amazing as usual. Awesome because my 2017 show bought those ramps from you!

That was dope. Yalls movements and duts are spot on. I love yalls enjoyment with this. Ive only been to 1 DCI comp but I love percussion.

This was actually the first DCI video I ever watched, back around the end of 2019. I was looking for a performance of a percussion ensemble piece the other half of Percussion Ensemble 2 was doing in my freshman year of high school (for anyone curious, the piece I was looking for is called _Downside, Up and Around_ and is by Jeffrey Barudin), to which there was only like one, maybe two videos of it that I could find. Basically everything else was just stuff from this show. While _Down Side Up_ may not necessarily be my absolute favorite DCI show, it is certainly pretty high up there, and this video will always hold a very, very special place in my heart. Thanks for the HeadCam, Matt, and thanks for the video, Andrew.

Big flex this guy is my drum teacher

I wish my middle school drum line could do this

There is something that no non band member will ever know when it comes to marching band. In marching band your band becomes more than a family as you trust everyone while they do their moves. Your section/squad becomes more and more of your family as you guys work all season together and share the same instrument. You almost spend countless hours perfecting formations with all of these people! This is my senior year and I've made a friend this year from it that I hope lasts years to come as we share the same instrument and interests.

Im in love with 8:35 when they have the 5 stroked sixteenths with the rim click in there! Its soo clean and beautiful😍😍

Is it wierd that at 9:20 i started swaying with them?

I love the great gig in the sky part it is just so great as being a mellophone and a Pink Floyd fan this just hits the spot and i hope to do something like this one day

I've always loved Downside Up, but the inside view makes it so amazing!

this is super impressive and really cool to watch but oh man the amount of effort and work you have to put into something like this is almost unimaginable

if this sport was open... imagine... but its so expensive to be at this level...

no tenor cam😭

This show is so iconic and you all are icons

Incredible footage, simply amazing point of view! Thanks for the perspective. :-)

A little less pizza and more 4 door minivan

12:40 I never realized how hard he really *smacked* that last note 👌

Congrats! So much fun and intensity! I wished I was there with the band, but at the same time I felt I was!!

I’m in 6th grade just started playing percussion and loving it!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

9:16 That must've been the wink, because the crowd went crazy!

10:08 is the " stick toss" and at the end there's another but the one he was talking to the drum major about was at 10:08 if you had trouble looking for it

Incredible performance and view. I'm a woodwind player so it's crazy seeing the show from the percussion side. Having a TON of fun.

i’m watching this in 2020 to remember the simpler times. i miss this

8:30 that part was epic

4:17 “Carol. Carol. Carol... KILLING IT.” Confirmed: *CAROL BASKIN KILLED HER HUSBAND*

I used to be a percussionist in a marching band. But this.... this is really something else!!! Amazing xD

i love them so much and i get to go see them soon for free since i’m in guard and my band director is giving the entire band free tickets to go watch them and i’m so happy

As an alto sax player this wants me to just quit that and learn how to play snare

doz or shnoz then doz

ok, this is one of the best things I've ever watched

So cool to think I marched on the same field as my favorite DCI team last year, can’t wait to do it again my junior year at BOA

"2 I love ya 3 I miss you" Im gonna use that to count from now on.

4:16 made me laugh so hard. "PIZZA!!"

I always liked to watch such performances but the stands thanks for showing what it looks like from the other side You are all GREAT :) Greetings from PolandSorry for the grammar mistakes etc Angielski is not my native language;)

Being a high school freshmen in marching band I just find this absolutely stunning
