"Today is leg day and you never skip leg day"
*curls a dumbbell*
"So I'm going to do some squats followed by some arms."
The USMC drum & bugle corps is just extreme DCI
Yeah, with 12 weeks of extra training
And 15 minutes of extra show length
are they better than dci?
Mac 'N Cheese without a boubt
@@mac_n_cheesie and most of them ate actually dci veterants lol
I like the fact you named your drum solo “field day”
Because it's clean af

4:48 Guy behind and to the left of you is my band director. Thank you for giving me and the rest of my band mates the opportunity to make even more memes of our band director
I’m a percussionist, and just did honor band tryout. I hope I made it! I had just watched your videos about it before I went. Thanks for your help.
Good luck!!
In November I get to try out for district band :)
Can you please update us?
Can you update please
I made it and it was great!

EMC: "You still have a change to see me before sunday."
Me: "how is 15 year old me going to skip school and get a plane ticket to texas."
I can drvive 8 or 9 hours to Austin
I live in South texas
It's actually legal (not skipping school, but getting plane tickets). Wanna come with? I'm 15 too, sophomore year yay (no longer a frosh lmao)
School on Sunday?
Are you going to the fair every year
While I didn’t get to see him at the state fair, I got to see him at the HEB competition
AuMiPe Gaming Same. It was amazing
Same
Same my school didn’t do well but we still saw
Same my school made finals in HEB.
6:18 In the words of Jeff Prosperie "The spock roll was clean!....very clean!"
Also the words: “if I can doge an axe, I can dodge that”.
Anyone else literally never even thought about marching band drumming before but quarantined and binging this channel
My friend and I bonded over your channel! The more hertas ya got, the more friends you'll have, guys.
Do you guys want me to tell the whole story?
Okay, someone liked, so here it is!
So I'm in high school, and my main instruments are violin and piano (it's been 10 years of music now! Holy crap, I'm 15...) and I only started familiarizing myself with percussion in August for some school stuff, then I discovered EMC and drum corps and all that good stuff. Anyways, because of this, I started hanging out with my school's oldest percussionist (Martha, she's a junior and also a complete beast, I'm a sophomore). Then, one day after school, Martha and I were chilling in the band room like all the cool kids do, and we were talking about percussion and stuff. And she walks over to the aux. percussion cabinet (love that thing) and starts using it as a practice pad. And I was like, "Are... are you using the cabinet as a practice pad?" And she was like "Yeah, it's kind of bouncy (there's this weird carpet thing on top of it), and I mean, I can play hertas on it..." And she plays a couple of hertas, and she says, "Oh wait, you're new to this stuff, you probably don't know what hertas are." And I was like "Um... isn't that a marching meme?" And she was like "Yes." So I said "Didn't it originate from that one video, 'My Hertas' by EMC Productions?" And she said, "Yeah! Huh, you really got into this stuff didn't you?"
She had to go do something soon after but we had a conversation via text about drum corps and maybe seeing a show together next year. She's a legend - if you're reading this Martha, I hope you're okay (you were frustrated with that xylophone part Gable made you record last time I saw you). So that's how I bonded with my friend over this very channel.
Bonus story time!
Martha is playing with me and a few of my other friends in our school's musical theatre show pit (The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee), and in one of the songs (I Speak Six Languages), there's a pretty long bongo thing that you can play pretty much whatever the heck you want during. So Martha's going to be playing hertas for that entire time (18 bars). What a legend.
LifeOnTheLedgerLines this is a cool story
Was nice meeting you at the state fair! Glad you liked my green chicken
One of my first schools when I started private teaching was Lewisville HS. That was in 1989 - THIRTY YEARS AGO! (Damn, I'm old.) I was a 24 year old sophomore at UNT majoring in Music Performance. (I had been serving in an Army Band up to the year before.)
I bet some of my LHS tuba students are still there, too. HAHAHA!!!
Small world! I was going to attend Lewisville highschool after Durham Middle and Rockbrook Elementary but I moved to Missouri!
King Jordan is my drum tech at my high school. Say hi to him for me!
Grant Hamilton what’s up grant
in public school in Texas everyone is given a free fair ticket and a day off, saw you there, wasn't sure if it was you but I am now
EMC you should play the cadence called “this is Sparta” search it up on RUclips, it’s the first one
Luke facts
Oh nvm wrong comment
Fun fact: Jordan's primary instrument going into music school was clarinet.
KEI HARVIN! I marched with him In 2014 Boston Crusaders! Also, I love all your content, man. Keep it up!
one of my life’s biggest regrets is not joining the military (Marines, Air Force) knowing they have good music programs - especially drum-lines and concert bands…just was never educated or counseled in that area. REALLY JEALOUS of your accomplishments and experiences in the military! Btw - thank you for your service, as always! You are too cool, my dude. Keep up the content as it enthralling!
They played at HEB Marching contest and it was amazing
Blue FaceBaby Ya they were great 👍
20 percent of the corp was there but it was still amazing
What band are you in? I'm in The Colony High School with poppycock
I came and saw you at the state fair last Sunday. The show was amazing and it was so awesome to meet you!
Inquiring minds like mine would like to know is how you guys travel on the road -- is it DCI World Class style (dedicated tractor trailers for equipment and uniforms and a luxury charter bus --- OR -- do you have your own caravan equivalent to Air Force One on wheels?)
7:07 That Voice Crack😂💀
He says
Man I totally would come to the state fair but I have band ☹️
Best reason though
nicholas lang it’s a joke
BAHAHAHAHA
Aye I live in Texas! I wish I could see y’all play, I’m currently a freshman on snare, and I would love to see a performance by marines!
Hey Eric, you should do a random stick solo.
It is true. They are both Marines and Band Geeks for life!
Omg I go to the Texas state fair every year because I live in Plano, and I love seeing the parade and now I recall seeing someone like you this year while watching
Best most relaxed technique I have ever seen in drum corps type music. In the 90’s they taught he no arm movement was permitted in marching band- it drove me nuts.
That was a great peak into the corps!
You're in my town!
Well I'll probably stop by Sunday to catch a 4pm concert.
Hope you're having a great time here!
Yes!!!! Those are Sean Vegas tenor sticks. I went to the same High School he did.
I watched y'all play at the HEB competition, loved it!!! I was part of Marcus HS
Jacob Faber Aw man, Yalls show was amazing, Good job 👏
Y’all’s show was amazing, I’m an equipment manager for Keller Central’s Band.
Dude, this is sweet! Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Clean as hell
Fond memories of Texas State Fair and Col. Truman Crawford!
My band preformed at HEB, I wanted to stay and watch y’all but we had to load and leave after our second run
I saw you guys on the 6th for your last day and I took a picture with 2 of the snares, I play snare at my school and you guys were absolutely amazing
who knew the youtuber i just found out about 2 weeks ago because i started playing quads was gonna be 30 minutes away from me. life surprises me sometimes
Eric is the only person I’ve seen use a selfie stick and not look absolutely horrible
I rember see you from the crowd and when you got the stick I screamed! LOVE YOU!
IM GOING TO THE STAR FAIR ON SUNDAY
Going to the state fair this week, can't wait to see you play
I remember watching this and thinking that it’s cool, hope you were cool at the state fair. This September was unusually hot and humid.
Hey man I saw you at the HEB marching contest I was in the stands! I loved your proformance!!!!
it is so badass that you are positioned DIRECTLY BEHING THE LEAD DRUM MAJOR during the cadence marches to and from!
just fyi - Twin Peaks - you devils, you! - is Texas’ version of HOOTERS. LOL
Dude, you’re like, the coolest and chillest dude ever...
I know a bunch of people at a high school in alexandria VA (west potomac) and they told me a bunch of their marching band staff wasnt gonna be there for a couple weeks. This explains why lol
Love your content. So glad I found your channel! oh and Fly Eagles Fly!
9:40 thats what i heard in the marine corps museum
i love how they had the marine corps anthem in there! learned that in middle achool at a patriotic middle school
Served in the D&B from 95-98 and it as the same exact schedule!
I live in texas but the state fair is in dallas i think so i cant make it ;/, its 6 hours away ._. but im glad you are here! Have a wonderful time!
I went on a DC trip with my school and saw yall perform over the summer and It was an amazing performance
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MARINE!!!!!
That's gotta be the best montage music I've probably ever heard.
Great work!!!
Semper Fidelis!
Man I’m glad I watched this video.
I was gonna mount a go pro on the quints at my school and I was thinking about the side of the drum to get a view going across but now I know to put it on the carrier
I would never voluntarily go to a gym especially in Texas.
Man, I really wish I could be there. My mom and brother are going there in 2 days, on a field trip for my brothers food science class. I asked them if they could film y'all playing so I could watch.
You‘re living the life. Thanks for your videos
That whole experience looks so fun!!!
welcome back! when the person who stole your phone deleted your channel i was still watching your videos then i clicked on another one of yours and it said this person has closed their channel lmao
I live about 2 hours from the fair and I would love to go but none of my family does.
I really wish I could see you. I have a horse show on Saturday in Wichita Falls but I might be able to come Sunday hopefully
loved watching u im a big tenor fan myself
Great Job Guys. God bless America......Barry miller
Your “NJP” reference was hilarious. Great vid!
I remember watching the marine Corp drum line perform at Dayton Ohio during the wgi world championships in like 2015 or 2016 I forgot what year maybe both but they are good at it
Bruuuuh even marines be playing smash bros on the bus ride to a performance
Jberry former Boston crusader jr/sr/Air Force band of west. 4 weeks basic tng?, They took me out of basic to do the west coast tour with band in 56 (that is 1956 smart a- -.Love your work, keep it up, the work that is.USMC is my favorite corps.
Make sure you are getting enough crayons will all the work you do
Yall should come to Kansas State Fair during the Marching Band Day, where high schools from around the state come and perform
That's some nice vlog energy you got there Mr.Carr
I love your content Eric! Keep it up
Hey man I have a marching competition in Texarkana you should totally come.
What's the cadence that always plays in the background? I love it.
He made a video called EMC Background Cadences where he goes over both of them and gives sheet music for them.
theGreatPanda I think it's something he created during his days with WGI indoor. I'm pretty sure I bookmarked it - cause I like it too - will get back to you later
It's called White Boy Smooth, and that is not a joke. The intro one is called False Hype.
That snare sound is naiiiwce
Damn that quad line is clean
proud of you man! never stop challenging yourself
I liked it as soon as he said great state of texas
I remember that USMC was the first DrumCorps that I saw in the US(Im from the Philippines) it was Texas State Fair 2016 I think.
i live in texas :D
edit: i remember going to this but i never heard the band
Hey Eric, I'm actually going to be in Texas on Friday and Saturday, as a part of the "Bring it Home" Guinness World Record attempt of the largest parade of Harley Davidson motorcycles at Cox Airfield in Paris, Texas for Motorcycle Missions that help veterans with PTSD. So, if I know what time the Commandant's Own is playing and where at the Texas State Fair, I would love to come see you guys, being a drum corps alumni and Navy veteran.
Haha... brings back memories! 84-87 drum line. Oohrah!
The drumline track at 1:35 is so cool!!!
Do they rotate room-mates for you, or does someone have to lose a contest?? :)
Yes! Milk and cookies. The most respected meal of the day.
I saw the video on the usmc channel man yall were good
awesome video! Love your vids dood!
The writing is absolutely beastly
I tried out for snare as a freshman in high school. They told me I got it but put me on tenors. Those things weight so much it hurt my back. So I switched to the pit crew and played the marimba.
There is a football game in this friday october 9th and the UHS band will play with the middle school im at :P
i was motivated so i hit the like button.
I actually live in Texas but I didn’t know that there was a festival :( maybe if you come next year I can see y’all’s performance :)
Yung skeeter just chillin
Bro i saw you at the HEB contest bro it was so awesome
We saw him a few weeks ago and we named a warm up exercise after Jordan
Surreal
EMC you can see me at pasic if you go to it this year I'm performing with my high school BHS.
You know you’re special when you get that police escort
7:30 It sounds like they’re playing an exert from Paul Lovett Coopers - Fire in the Blood, if that’s the case that’s pretty awesome!!
