I'm in the AF, trust me, I know what you're saying! Everyone thinks Emergency Services personnel don't matter until they actual need us! Thanks for what you do
@SuperBozek It's college....not high school. High School is made of kids who need credits to graduate...College bands are made of people who have a genuine passion to be there.
Word. Sometimes in bigger college bands they'll put the battery in the center because you wouldn't be able to hear them from a quarter mile away in a band of 300+ people, but most of the time they're near the back. It's a visual thing to put tubas behind everyone.
They may sound like the Top Secret Drum Corps, but they don't look like them. The point of the Corps is to play extremely well at the exact same rate as 40 others.
excuse me... as an EMT, I'm siding with the firefighters... indeed we do have the right of way over ANY marching band because when we save one of your relatives from a heart attack you'll thank us!
snares get all the glory but the best drummers in the line are the tenors. snares only have to play one drum. tenors are playing five, and having a blast doing it. i would grab a snare from one of them and play their part easily. they couldn't dream of playing mine.
Good god, im glad i gave up drums and marching band for fire and EMS. Im laughing at the comments with the band kids trying to be bad ass. BTW, South Bend is my dream career fire department.
Don't know if its just normal respect or what......really the ambulance had it's lights on and trying to race through the band to either make it to someone or to a hospital but NORMAL hospitality is to move out the way which they did but really if there was someone in the ambulance at least stop playing for the respect of the person in the ambulance,not hating just saying😕
Go to class, destroy some exams, watch some anime, hang out with a few bros, and hit the gym. What does that have to do with anything? You're still not supposed to cross the ranks, civilian.
I respect what EMT'S have done for the population, but as a marching band member i'm gonna have to say your incredibly cheesy and terrible first line of insults doesn't scare me either. in any other situation, you never cross the ranks. this MIGHT be an exception had you been respectful and polite, but no you had to insult a random marching band kid. good for you, Mr. Paramedic.
look bro, a bunch of pimple faced braces wearing band geeks armed with drumsticks doesn't scare me. if you saw a quarter of what I've seen on some of the emergency calls I've been on you'd have nightmares for 6 months.
Sorry, no. Stanford has an unband that wears ununiforms, and my dear alma mater Oregon wears exercise clothing designed by Nike. Of those with real uniforms, I rate Ohio State's as about the worst.
so cool that they didn't miss a beat, got off the road for the ambulance, and went right back at it.
Thanks for posting!
Iconic
diggin those subtle sevens by the snares between the flashes, a pretty ballin line
they played all the way through the fiasco, see....that's the kind of showmanship/ discipline I grew up with, You guys rock out loud.
I love how they just go right into form WOOOOOOOO MSU drumline!!!
This is the kind of video that I'd show to students.
Good Job u guys sound awesome i am comin to the game tomorrow n live in Grand Ledge u guys came to my school a couple of weeks ago
I'm in the Michigan Marching Band, and an ambulance drove through us yesterday. Maybe it's a conspiracy...
Lauryn Lehman as a Michigan band member, what was it like playing the iconic fight song for the first time during a game.
2:10 pull off to the right and keep playing.
And the beat goes on.
I'm in the AF, trust me, I know what you're saying! Everyone thinks Emergency Services personnel don't matter until they actual need us! Thanks for what you do
Wow BOSS. Not as dirty as I expected. Ambulance? No big deal. Still continue playing like a boss.
You gotta give respect where its due. They handled the situation like professionals.
In my band, we have 1 snare, he can barely keep a beat. We need them!
It is called the series
i love that drum line :D
haha, this was so weird. and we kept playing. deff a great story to share, even if we lost that game
@SuperBozek It's college....not high school. High School is made of kids who need credits to graduate...College bands are made of people who have a genuine passion to be there.
Greatest Drumline in the Big Ten!
Yea, that's him for sure.
really good
Damn, the tubas in the beginning though
Great discipline.
tuba's going HARD!!!!
Hell yeah brother wicked
it would be nice i they showed the colorguard and not just the drumline
I Didnt know an ambulance was in a marching band ? :O
If this video shows anything, it is the discipline that one learns while in marching band.
and that drummers will play through anything that could happen
petersonkid2 that's the MSU drumline for ya hahaha
9 months ago
i heard that they sent the EMS though on purpose
in my high school marching band (which I'm in) Pitt and perc. is always first
who asked?
Chief Keef does it really matter
Does it matter if anyone asked? Yes, it does. Otherwise everyone would spew out random statements that aren't necessary to the topic at hand.

bama born and raised well that's wrong drum line is always in the middle that doesn't make sense
1:19 for actual march.
What happens if a Sousa's bell falls off?
Sticks For Sale they still just keep on marching. They lose mouthpieces, they still march.
What a weird thing to worry about! What if a band member's pants fall down around his ankles?
Real life. Paramedics through a marching band. ;)
Glen or Madden for sure
what is the nameof the cadence!!!!!!!!!!!!
The series! :)
im still watching this video since my last comment
The Series
Gangsta Spartan!
Nice
The best college band around go mus 🤍💚
Cool
do you even know what fire truck looks like. that was an ambulance that interupted the parade
party broken up @ 2:14 party reunited @ 2:39
What kind of dog is that?
I was wondering the same thing.
they definitely sound like the top secret drum corp. i really wanna be as good as them, and even better then them when i get into the military
They may sound like the Top Secret Drum Corps, but they don't look like them. The point of the Corps is to play extremely well at the exact same rate as 40 others.
Qq3weeeekkkkooo
Ay,that rescue vehicle broke ranks! A definite no-no......
Tubastein1 even though that is the case, I must side with the fact that they had to. Because it's an emergency vehicle.
did anyone else record more then just the snare drums? if so let me know......i got bored after 1 min
True story.
lol the sousa player is all like whoops wrong spot at the very beginning
If M.S.U. pushes the Eagle Mega Site then I will always say No Green, No White. I am tossing my Spartan gear.
ambulance breaks through parade order. no big deal.
you're very welcome. I love what I do.
excuse me... as an EMT, I'm siding with the firefighters... indeed we do have the right of way over ANY marching band because when we save one of your relatives from a heart attack you'll thank us!
lol at tubas(if im correct)
there had to be another road rather than make the entire MSU marching band move, probaly would of been quicker
Doubtful. Emergency vehicles have the right of way. Even over a marching band 🙄
@SuperBozek r u kidding meh?? this is michigan state!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude it was a joke!
snares get all the glory but the best drummers in the line are the tenors. snares only have to play one drum. tenors are playing five, and having a blast doing it. i would grab a snare from one of them and play their part easily. they couldn't dream of playing mine.
Egypt Son damn dude you're badass
GO GREEN! GO WHITE!
No, you don't. Cross the ranks of the band, and you might need saving.
Oh calm down man it was a joke!
ok, then I apoligize for not finding it funny. however you'd be suprised how under-appreciated we are as EMT's.
We're smarter in Ann Arbor. When we hear a siren that means pull the hell over, not keep going and hopefully it'll turn the other way.
There is nothing smart about ANYTHING in Ann Arbor.
Go Green!! Go white !!!
Good god, im glad i gave up drums and marching band for fire and EMS. Im laughing at the comments with the band kids trying to be bad ass. BTW, South Bend is my dream career fire department.
You're a dick....
John Moore I am a giant dick head. After working fire and ems for 10 years you lose every ounce of fucks one can have. Thank you for recognizing!
He has his sirens on, State just doesent care about anything but themselves. GO BLUE!
Get a megaphone!
It’s Called a cadence, which requires a whole drumline. Come on MSU Drumline have some pride
Whachu mean my boy
LOL, you guys had to vacate the street. cute.
GO BLUE

Their not very good at attention... lol,
look bro, a bunch of pimple faced braces wearing band geeks armed with drumsticks doesn't scare me. if you saw a quarter of what I've seen on some of the emergency calls I've been on you'd have nightmares for 6 months.
Mike Hruby oh boy. Tough keyboard warrior here, also not everyone has pimples, half of them have clean faces.
Lighten the hell up, kid.....
And.....I don't really care what you've seen....
horrible sound
Alejandro Walters video quality man... watch it live and say it again.
worst uniforms in the country
Sorry, no. Stanford has an unband that wears ununiforms, and my dear alma mater Oregon wears exercise clothing designed by Nike. Of those with real uniforms, I rate Ohio State's as about the worst.
You're a dumb ass..... stomped your liberal ass!
