They used the school band budget for this prop. EDIT: *entire school band budget*

That’s the most “band kid” thing I’ve ever seen. A+

you dont you grab your orange slices for halftime and make the trip back home

this honestly isnt too bad, i was at a marching band assessment and one band did the exact same thing but it was spinning like 10 times faster, i didnt even understand how he could play

Director: All right you guys are gonna do great, just don’t be nervous! The band before us:

“The world turned upside down” omg its hamilton 😭

Playing that his hard itself. Playing that while spinning: 😵‍💫

"mom can I have a drum set?" "No we have one at home" The one at home:

They’re just training the drummer boys for if we ever go to war over the moon.

“Yeah I was in the band, instrument? No I spun the drummer.”

BROOO THATS MY FRIEND I GO TO THAT SCHOOL THATS CRAZYYYYY

"so, what are your talents?" Him: Her*

For anyone wondering this is Westfield High School last year competing at James Madison University’s Parade of Champions

Biblically accurate drum set

I was at a comp once and there was this one part that this really rich high school did where they had a color guard member wear a giant red dress and then they fucking pretended to burn her on a like 65 foot tall stake as if she was a witch, and then the dress “unfurled” and turned into like a 50 foot “tent” of sorts below her. They were doing some kind of narrative based performance with like a story. Shit was nuts.

When you're ready to intern for NASA but your parents want you to do band first

absolute slay to any band kid that can survive that fr i’m a guardie and CANNOT IMAGINE doing that 😭

Remember when Slipknot had something like this?

nah that dudes training to become an astronaut

As a band kid, I'm not surprised they didn't put the whole drumline in one of those😂

"guys look what I built over summer vacation!"

the best comment my marching band ever received from a judge was him asking for more cymbals?? he really made it clear he wanted more cymbals in that tape

Bro what this is the high school we competed against. Crazy part is they didn’t even come first for a the competitions

Mans didn't put his uniform away nicely so his punishment is hamster ball

That’s gotta be the sickest Tenor drummer I’ve ever seen

Flat earthers be like: THIS IS PHOTOSHOPPED

Dang, and I thought our drum line had a neat party trick where one of the drummers held another drummer upside down while the guy upside down would play the song.

me who plays the tenor for my band and seeing this with my heart rate spiking:

Forget spiderman we got spinningman

Bruh imagine that gets off it's track and rolls across the field He can play his own chase scene music as he Mows down the entire opposing team

playing the quads like that takes skill

BRO TURNED INTO A HUMAN CENTRIFUGE LMAOOOOO

Kid 1: Dude I’m in band too, I play tuba, what do you play? Kid 2: I play the drum spinner

slipknot: "taking notes"

They take playing the quads to a whole new level.

This years show is crazy with the trombones.

Why is that necessary 😂

Look it's Benson from regular show

Imagine if this was a marching band and they just rolled them down the road 😂

They may have beat us last year but yesterday we took first! Love you Westfield, u guys are awesome!!!

Holy shit I was there. I was there watching that one drummer dude.

WOW!!!! Can not wait for the next one 🙌

omfgg like Motley Crue that’s actually sick as shit go lil mann!

Bros experiencing his gs

Am I the only one who sees the guard in revolutionary era uniforms?? Drippy as fuck

Because a drummers life isn't complicated enough

This is especially amazing because Westfield’s band isn’t really funded by the school. This is all them!

When they take the band competition too seriously. 😂

I don't wanna be in band anymore 🥲

Joey Jordison, band camp 1987. (colorized)

Let's get this guy ready for NASA

I actually got to see this band in person last year,

When you have to compensate for skill

You can beat gimmicks with a higher, more consistent group skill

he experience real life stranger things episode

Bro forgot the no eating in the band hall rule This is his punishment

Ah, yes. The James Madison University Parade of Champions. Recognize that stadium anywhere. This is probably Chantilly or some gnarly, rich band. Edit: it's Westfield. The last Parade of Champs I played in (18 or so years ago), Chantilly took it. I can remember sitting about right where this camera is. Our top bass marked a good five or six hashes too far in the way in and stayed that way until the ballad, if i recall correctly. Ah, good times.

I couldn't. They folded us at JMU too lmao.

It was crazy competing against these guys at JMU POC. Definitely a great show

The absolute madman

I'm marching tenor this year... unfortunately there are more people in this video than our entire band. We are poor. No spin :(

This is actually a special drum kit. It’s designed to amplify the drum sounds in all directions and make the drummer extremely dizzy.

This is iconic 🥲

Our band used that too during last season, so it's good to see other people doing it to

Holy crap! I was competing in that competition against this school…. We got our asses kicked😂

When you just showing off.

bros on god mode 💀

Makes me miss marching band contests back in the day. No props. No Gimmicks. Just marching bands.

He's going to throw up after that

I was dumbfounded when i saw this part of the show

This show was so cool to see in person, I march in the same division as this school, and they are super rich.

Those state marching competitions are getting real competitive they must be looking for an edge

Bruh save this for Winter Percussion lol

You should see what some high schools get up to during indoor drumline season

Wow, the tens in attendance must have gone wild!

my man is training for nasa

He’s training for when he goes to space so he can still play via zoom

This is making me even more excited for competition season

That man just said,"Gotta go fast"

Bros on whole other level 😂

Reminds me of my highschool band during my senior year, we had a circus themed show. The band directors saw a bunch of our talents from last years band camp talent show. So they worked it into the show. My friend was playing accordian, some color guard girl was doing a little contortion, two kids were riding unicycles, another girl in the second movement was doing aerial silks (yes we had a rig), and I was the announcer for the show (the whole "Ladies and gentleman..." Thing). Near the final part of our shows 3rd movement, right at the climax of the song we turned around this field prop, and it was a spinning wheel that our drum captain (snare) was strapped to, and yes he was playing while spinning. I'll never forget it, everytime we did that show at a competition we got a standing ovation it was a great feeling.

Band director was a Motley Crue fan

The 7 people in the crowd looked pumped during that “performance “.

As a quint player i can confirm you cannot beat this legend

In my head when the band teacher asks me a question.

Its giving.... Spinner man, the Mandarins show last year

WHAT?? AMAZING! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The kid is training to be an astronaut. And if that doesn't work for her, drummer.

😃 That drummer is clearly on a fasttrack for NASA!

This guy is training for the NASA orchestra

Training for drumline on the moon

He must be training to be an astronaut

so proud

Benson wildin

omg and they are clean and the colour guard seems clean to and they sounds pretty good.... scary

I remember my band teacher showing us this last year… the look of awe on his face 😂

If they did not get outstanding visual affect I swear

Bro doin the solo that benson did in regular show

Lol competitions are crazy. I’ve seen bears using smoke and trains, and even one where a girl was dressed up as Kim possible with an inflatable dress or something

Anyone else get flash backs to that one regular show episode?
