NSU has an absolutely amazing drumline. They are the cleanest HBCU live I’ve ever heard. The fact they are using system blue drums too makes it even better

How could System Blue drums make anything better? If anything it makes it worse. This is a fantastic line, and they deserve better sounding drums than what they have.

@@Inspadave .. Inspa Dave is 98% Spot-On-Correct. They are only sufficient/tolerable with out Horns on Concrete or a Hard Surface. Add Grass/Turf &/or Horns/Winds = Forget It. Blue Devils have proved year after year that feeble/fragile System Blue Drums lack the energy force needed to DRIVE a powerful hornline.

@rogermakarov Жыл бұрын

@@Inspadave System Blue joints are on point. But, I love that NSU use high tension drums. Alot of HBCU use mid grade drums with Mylar heads and for me I don't like the sound cuase I grew up with DCI. But, NSU is the bomb hands down my fav HBCU drumline.

@@brokenx9264I wouldn’t put them over DCI drum lines, especially a top 12 Drum Corps International finalist Line. They can play the same rudiments and technique on the field, on the move, with little to no flaws. I’m not taking anything away from Norfolk State, as far as HBCU drum lines go, this line is hot! Their snare line definitely shows drum corps style of technique, along with their clean tenors. The one thing I would like to hear from all HBCU lines is Please tune your bases. You can really exciting parts for them, especially when you have so many!

A little sick of seeing thumbs down for something like this -- and being an older dude, I see a LOT of young people doing something positive, firstly, which is just totally cool. Secondly, being from a "drum corps/everything should be executed perfectly" perspective, I see this as a 100% awesome fusion of tradition AND a HUGE "raising the bar" from that traditional style to adding expectational excellence. I do not see what the heck there is to dislike about this at all. It is like these folks decided, "We shouldn't;t ditch tradition AT ALL but let's make it even better in THIS way". What's more---they ACHIEVED this and NAILED IT!

It's so funny how some people mention the drumstick drop as if that was shameful. My question is WHY do they have 2 in their side punch??? I would think b/c it may drop or break so they carry a backup. In addition, THEY sounded and looked so good I wouldn't care if the stick FLEW into the stands! THAT WAS SOULFUL and we all know where the drums came from...i.e. the Mother Land along with all that base and rhythm they are playing which was mesmerizing.
