It was super cool! I was watching from the Flight Deck (which is kind of on the side of the arena) and was able to see the drum set player was the one prepping for battery going into the scream.
Appreciate the Paradigm love. I run sound for Paradigm and we had an incredible bunch of students this season who really committed to the bit. Check us out next year!

Good morning! This is video 182 of me asking for a drumline gym made out of various marching percussion instruments, such as the tenor barbell, and bass drumbbells.
I really enjoy your channel! I'm 51yo now and when I started high school band, all we had for tenors were tri-toms my first year but we were ecstatic when we got to camp and they had gotten us quads (w/o a spock) but your videos are thoroughly entertaining and they certainly take me back 💙🥁
I’m from fruitport independent and we shared a hotel with groove drumline. The show is really cool and I am happy to see them on this list. (Edit) I’m the rack player
I've gotten to see Atlanta Quest in person in the GIPA circuit. Their show was phenomenal. Although the technical issues with the tvs seem to happen frequently. Every time, they've had a different tv not working. But it's my goal after high school to audition for Atlanta Quest.
I am always amazed by how many high schools have enough people that are good enough and have motivation to do this stuff, because my school can get a talented drumline, but theres always a few who dont bother to learn the music, and the front ensamble is consistently bad because its usually all the freshman, with a couple upperclassmen and this is just for outdoor marching band.
If you like sword fights/beheadings, check out 2019 Boston Crusaders DCI show Goliath! (shameless Mom plug, my son played the VERY HIGH trumpet note (twice!) about 7 minutes in, during the Hamilton/Rocky mash up :)
I wonder how many of these groups got some of their ideas by watching this channel. For example, the idea at 8:02 for breaking the Mandarin's record for the most amounts of spins in air and the chickens at 17:54 lol 🤣
Bro those props were giant headache for Ayala all season. They were often too wide to fit into doors and even got them a penalty for damaging doors and floors
Honestly kind of a shame that there weren't more PIO groups here, the class overall this year just kind of popped up and the top 5 all had some incredible products this year. I know Q2 put some judges to tears this year, Civitas's show was very surreal, and IMPACT had some really interesting section interplay. Hats off to IMPACT, it never feels good to see someone lose a medal to a penalty, but you just have to accept it because that's part of the game.
Marching IMPACT this year was a blast, losing a 2nd place spot means nothing when we put our hearts out in our finals run. Thank you so much for the recognition!!
Hey EMC, would you ever be willing to watch and rate SCPA shows of a year? my school can only do scpa, but we do some diffrent shows compared to the ones we always see, and think itd be something cool for you to rate?
@EMCproductions you should do one with trilogy independent please. We are three high schools put together competing in independent A. Maybe even get bumped up to open. But it would be cool if you did CWEA championships 2024 from Dorman Highschool. Our production was called Bluebird. We are the year CWEA Champions.
Video number 45 of asking you to learn how to play ever long by the foo fighters on drumset. No where near as hard as your bleed and master of puppets videos but still a great song that for the average person is really hard to play. If it’s too easy for you being an experienced drummer try playing the hi-hat 16th notes with one hand like normal
It's mostly just rhythms but for different sections or different hits there are different noteheads. For example, rim shots are generally notated with X's on the noteheads. And for tenors/quads, crossovers are notated with half note heads with slashes through them
Hey, you still need to tell us why The Brave Little Toaster is your favorite movie! I don't really want to go through the whole "Video 1 of asking etc etc" thing.
Which show was your favorite?
Not on this list, but my favorite was Beavercreek HS's " Moving out Loud"
Carmen Heights
Impact percussion or broken city
loved Homestead HS, definitely not biased (i go to Homestead and was in their winter guard this year!)
INFINITY
The MCM silence into the blood curdling scream gave me chills every time.
GO MICHAEL!!!
It was super cool! I was watching from the Flight Deck (which is kind of on the side of the arena) and was able to see the drum set player was the one prepping for battery going into the scream.
Holy balls I set EMC’s spin record.
🏆
*Ties* the Mandarins record,! 8:28
I was getting nauseous just watching at spin 5. Great work!!
That was you? Awesome!
Appreciate the Paradigm love. I run sound for Paradigm and we had an incredible bunch of students this season who really committed to the bit. Check us out next year!

awful idea
@@shovel.515he literally said he liked the idea
@@shovel.515fr
…. Just, don’t
Day 182 of you posting a comment that doesn’t benefit anyone
Paradigm representing all of PIO 👀
I was preforming at a few high school competitions that also had Paradigm percussion competing there. The show was amazing to watch in person
Sparkman High School senior synth here, it's been an amazing season and I look forward to watching these shows in the future!
I was in the 2019 show, as an alumni I'm unbelievably proud to see how much further you all have gone. And Im undoubtedly excited for the future.
19:55 MCM did an amazing job with the silence/freeze effect I honestly thought the video was frozen until I looked at the audience!
BRING HUMOR BACK TO WGI!
Being in an EMC video for helping set a spinning record was not on the 2024 bingo card, but it is a welcome addition.
at 12:03, I am the synth guy headbanging in the back. Super glad you enjoyed the show. Rahh Matrix
I noticed you put the smiler (roller coaster with the most upside down moments) in the "flippy twisty reference" lmao
I love seeing sungazer in drumline, last year Redline played threshold as well

The Paradigm love!! ❤️❤️
My son was so happy to see you he got a picture with you
My friend is one of the girls that does rack for MCM and she always talks to me about how cool the dude on the drumset is. love your vids ‼️
We need some Cap City love! CC2 kicked ass finals night with the bronze 😈
I’m from fruitport independent and we shared a hotel with groove drumline. The show is really cool and I am happy to see them on this list.
(Edit) I’m the rack player
Cool little detail about Noblesville HS show is that some of the letter blocks spell “WGI”.super cute!
I've gotten to see Atlanta Quest in person in the GIPA circuit. Their show was phenomenal. Although the technical issues with the tvs seem to happen frequently. Every time, they've had a different tv not working. But it's my goal after high school to audition for Atlanta Quest.
Go for it bro!
I wish you luck in that endeavor, I don't know what your graduating class you're in but if it's '24 or '25 maybe I'll see you there
Glad somebody else recognized Kettering Fairmont, saw that show early season and was astounded by how mature the ensemble was
Ok that redline moment was crazy
seen dartmouth 3 times now at wgi+mac shows, they’re absolute freaks, crazy talented
Glad you enjoyed the Old Bridge show!
Appreciate the Paradigm Love! #FunnyShowsFTW
Good thumbnail.
I was able to see gallery x in person a few times leading up to finals, this season was great!
Most underrated drumline. Disney toy soldiers drum core in Disney world
From Pearl HS, Dartmouth and music city were my favorite 🗣🔥
I am always amazed by how many high schools have enough people that are good enough and have motivation to do this stuff, because my school can get a talented drumline, but theres always a few who dont bother to learn the music, and the front ensamble is consistently bad because its usually all the freshman, with a couple upperclassmen and this is just for outdoor marching band.
SOUTH DAKOTA MAKING AN APPEARANCE! LET’S GO!
Man that center snare for noblesville has some crazy chops!
Kettering Fairmont, let's go!! Great costumes, set, design and performers. 🥁❤️👹
As a former Center Grove HS marcher, I am very proud of what they accomplished this year! It was absolutely amazing.
old bridge my fav
my friend was there with rcc on tenors, their show is so much fun to watch.
Putting Paradigm over Rhythm X is insane
Would love to see emc transcribe that Avon bass drum feature
8:00 OMG GROOVE PURSUIT GOT MENTIONED 😭😭. They had a damn great show during the MPA Season!
If you like sword fights/beheadings, check out 2019 Boston Crusaders DCI show Goliath! (shameless Mom plug, my son played the VERY HIGH trumpet note (twice!) about 7 minutes in, during the Hamilton/Rocky mash up :)
Proud i can call RCC my school!
Good Morning! Love you vids!! Keep on doing you!! (I also marched United!)
Hey, nice video! You do have Center Grove pinned as Matrix in the caption
I was in groove pursuit!!!!!! I played bass guitar!!! such a fun show, had a bunch of technical issues tho on finals.
I wonder how many of these groups got some of their ideas by watching this channel. For example, the idea at 8:02 for breaking the Mandarin's record for the most amounts of spins in air and the chickens at 17:54 lol 🤣
Pretty often it’s staff intermingling and or just getting inspired by other ensembles to do something
Glad to see monarch in the mix this year!!! ❤
HOLY COW OLD BRIDGE WHAT????!!?!
WHAT!
Drum go boom!
Can we take the time to appreciate infinity 3 with the chandelier
First WGI competition I attended. And oddly enough, got first place in Scholastic Concert A class.
Same! Except I got 21st in PSA
It’s bc noblesville got bumped up a class, if they didn’t they would’ve wiped yall
According to my band director my marching band is using the Ayala Props for our outdoor show this year so we are excited to say the least.
Whats your marching band?
Bro those props were giant headache for Ayala all season. They were often too wide to fit into doors and even got them a penalty for damaging doors and floors
If you watch Sparkman again when the Bass 1 and 2 are in the center there is a loud siren like noise that was me screaming 😁
It was intentional
I know at least 3 people from CGHS, including one of the Snares! He also does MB, and has been a big support in my first season as an 8th grader.
mr emc i’m a freshmen next year and just made snare for next years drumline 🎉🎉🎉
do a video on the tenor feature from coldsteels performance at the sound check 2024 in the video its at 7:24
Believe it or not my marching band got the wings from Rhythm X's, "Blackbird". Really cool to use those
Lego tenors would go crazy
Idk how you’d do it but they’d look cool
George Mason University was a perfect show I am so sad to not see it on the list
I second that
Honestly kind of a shame that there weren't more PIO groups here, the class overall this year just kind of popped up and the top 5 all had some incredible products this year. I know Q2 put some judges to tears this year, Civitas's show was very surreal, and IMPACT had some really interesting section interplay.

Meraki showing everyone how it’s done.
Sungazer mentioned!!! 🔥 🔥 🗣️🗣️
"What will you leave behind when you're dead? For me, it will be thousands and thousands of RUclips videos."
Nice to meet you.
Most, if not all, of these groups are larger than my HS’s entire band.
where’s the Q2 love? (In all seriousness would love to hear your thoughts on Q2)
guys idk the one doll vibe player on the left seems to be really getting in to during noblesville guys in the attic performance at 3:59 🤭🤭
The one cowboy in the middle of the front ensemble too, he’s pretty cool
i just had tryouts and i cant believe i made tenorline at my hs
Are you going to rank DCI all age this year too?
You should do a WGASC video too
Hey EMC, would you ever be willing to watch and rate SCPA shows of a year? my school can only do scpa, but we do some diffrent shows compared to the ones we always see, and think itd be something cool for you to rate?
for refrence my school is Rowland highschool
Thoughts on oci ?
You played a Sungazer song, once, remember? They gave you a shout-out.
I am pretty sure you will also be leaving behind a large number of rubber chickens as well.
Hertas go rah, like crayon 🖍️
@EMCproductions you should make another best and worst gifts for percussionists
@EMCproductions you should do one with trilogy independent please. We are three high schools put together competing in independent A. Maybe even get bumped up to open. But it would be cool if you did CWEA championships 2024 from Dorman Highschool. Our production was called Bluebird. We are the year CWEA Champions.
You should make a top 20 show list of the century taking the winning shows from each class the past 24 years and ranking them…
Did center grove use music from attack on Titan???
You should have added the up bass feature
you should check out Glenn HS even though there open class, their show was super entertaining!
my High School got first place in CO, Sko Cougs!!
I am very much against gimmicks like LEDs on drums, but flutes are always welcome
Video 301 of asking for a Video of you playing exactly 69420 Notes
119 to go
@21:03 LOL
Yo EMC, any comments or thoughts about Orange County Independent?
First comment, I have been watching you for a while you are an inspiration
Video number 45 of asking you to learn how to play ever long by the foo fighters on drumset. No where near as hard as your bleed and master of puppets videos but still a great song that for the average person is really hard to play. If it’s too easy for you being an experienced drummer try playing the hi-hat 16th notes with one hand like normal
The fact Q2 isn’t in this hurts my soul. However Quest is so its levels out a bit.
Top Secret Drum Corp are NO.1
you should learn all the features from MCM 2024 show
How do you read notes in drum line?
It's mostly just rhythms but for different sections or different hits there are different noteheads. For example, rim shots are generally notated with X's on the noteheads. And for tenors/quads, crossovers are notated with half note heads with slashes through them
A class where :(
Dartmouth was so goofy this year
Hey, you still need to tell us why The Brave Little Toaster is your favorite movie! I don't really want to go through the whole "Video 1 of asking etc etc" thing.
Wheres A class 🤔
DARTMOUTH!!!!!!!!!!!
WHERE IS BEAVERCREEK OH?
Right here
Once again the great shows from PSA class are ignored.
me watching this to see if my school (psa) is on the list:
