Watch your mouth, kid.

Were you supposed to say that, or did you just improv?

Spitting straight bars! So cool!

I think thats just the BAC logo they use. ••|•|•••

Correct. Those are the Conquest Shots. Not morse code. Conquest is a song that has been played by the corps for decades and the shots are a tradition and part of the corp's history. We play the shots in the show every year. Listen to the brass as 4:00

Daniel Gutierrez I saw my tech had that tattoo. He said the whole 2018 Drumline got it tattooed on them

Jjynja damn, that’s one hell of a dedication to something.

Believe me, that’s my high schools field and it’s turf is so itchy and it digs into your skin and it burns all through practice and days after

PrayToShinji Thank you !! Much appreciated

close, but not quite ;)

@@danielgutierrez4132 ehhh

I believe it should be total demolition of the competition instead of total day shooting down competition

Not during the 2018 season. That is actually coincidentally another Daniel, Daniel Shinohara. However he aged out so now as of 2019 and on I will be section leader.

Ah. Good stuff though!

I only know the sticks they used for 2019, but I think they're the same. Colin McNutts for the sticks and Cookies for the mallets

@@dakotagodinez5763 no you're right I dmed him and he said that as well

I have the same question

Probably wanted more of a drier cut from top 2 and spock, but still wanted that warmth from 3 and 4. You can kind of hear it in the video.

Yeah, Pinstripes on 1, 2, and Spock for the high sounds and Ambassadors on 3 and 4 for warmth and tonal sounds. I'm usually not a fan of mixing heads but it worked out really well for BACQ

To mix that absolute juicy low tom power like scv’s quads but still having the tight clean and clear sound in the higher range. I actually love this combo. Best of both worlds.

Vorzink Blut wait what?

I printed out the transcription, that part isn't hard, but damn tasty!

たっち・みー well it does depend on the writer, Vanguard has 5 and they had a three-peat and world championship so I guess it’s preference

Salt Westlo they didnt have a three-peat world championship. 2016 was bluecoats, 2017 was blue devils, and 2018 was vanguard.

Matthew Harrison I meant as high drums, my bad for not clarifying

Basically depends on the writer. McNutt has used one Spock for awhile now.

Like a few people mentioned, it is indeed preference and also dictated by the writing style of the person writing the music. I have used both quints with Boston and sextets at RCC and few groups prior and both are equally as effective. 6 definitely has more variety if you know how to use both spocks but 5 can be just as good. At the end of the day, you gotta play clean.

A compass usually is pointed 330 degrees Northwest or 30 Degrees Northeast my assumption the heads were trying to mimic that cause the show theme is SOS.

nah it’s just a BAC thing, they’ve had the diagonal heads for a couple years

@@Carlejandro Good assumption but it's just a BAC thing, lol.

@@Carlejandro honestly genius if that was done on purpose lol

Yamaha's! The best in the biz!!

my guess is to get the resonance of the 3 and 4 drums using coated heads, and get the brightness of the spock, 1, and 2 drums using clear heads

The reason we did the hybrid mix match of the heads is because we wanted a fuller sound with more tone and resonance on the lower drums for all the marimba spiritual drum 4 16th note motifs and things of that sort. However we wanted to maintain the articulate sound and twang of the higher drums for all the fast shots and diddle passages written in the book and the pinstripes are perfect to keep that pretty sounding ringing tone

Daniel Gutierrez Awesome! You guys had a great season and actually ended up being my favorite line of the year. Good luck in the future!

“and 123. the 5 set me free, from the spock to the 4 brothers sound in harmony. nuts. quadic acrobatics. total demolition of the competition jedi mind status. bitch.”

close. but not quite it. :)

@@smoke_stacks I think its and 123, 45 set me free... Idk tho

Daniel Gutierrez how is that not it😂
