A long line of kids have been a part of the Marching band but I don't think any of them ever had as much fun as this group of Austin High band members seem to be having.
I can't believe this happened a year ago. I was in this band playing bass drum in the very back. We were given 4 days notice and had one rehearsal the day before. I am proud to say that I was one of the few that signed that clock we gave them. I played cymbals the year before when we filmed big easy express and performed on fourth street with them. As for the keyboard problem, I was told that he had it set to transpose to a different key and it was apparently the wrong key. I had the time of my
I'm guessing that Ben couldn't really hear himself playing and then unknowingly hit some kind of transpose button on his keyboard. I can't imagine any other reason for which he'd be so perfectly out of key for that long without realizing it.
This was a highlight in the DVD BIG EASY EXPRESS! I’m not sure how long rehearsals took, but judging from the many trophies shelved in the background they must have gotten into the song pretty easily. It is an absolute joy to watch them perform together, and they are having a blast as well! I wrote a long review here: h t t p : / / notnicolajames . wordpress . com
As much as I love mf&s, it was actually their fault. The piano player was out of tune, not the band. The band is actually very good as far as HS marching bands go
I was there, that was one hell of a show they put on. One of the best live bands out there.
I love Mumford and Sons! I’m so glad that they got to hang out with only THE best damn band in all the land! Go Austin High! ❤️❤️❤️

I go to that school, Austin High, and know some of the guys who played at this. they're some cool people.
My two favorite parts are, "Hey Ben!" And "Whoever they are, fuck em!"
Really! What a nice change to see the kids get to really enjoy the music instead of just marching around in formation!
Haha Marcus is like BEN WHAT THE!? So funny. It sounded horrible, maybe Ben couldn't hear what he was playing!?
Love how Marcus screams out Ben when he's off lol :P
that key change was brutal.

oh my god you can hear it so badly how did he not notice hahahaha
I'm glad he recovered, but god damn... 6:57 is possibly the worst mistake I've heard in a live performance.
Oh. Deer. God! Gore this poor player on your mighty antlers and put them out of their misery
i think ben started playing it in the wrong key..thats why you see marcus yelling ben's name around 7:14 hahaha
6:57 ROFL
It sounded so MUCH better in the big easy express movie
Love that it's real though! Take that any day!
Brilliant!!!
07:02 what happened with the piano part 😂 overall fantastic show !!
You are correct
That sax dancing at the end of their song make it clear that marching bands everywhere have all the sex addicts not just mine
What just happened at 7 minutes? Someone playing in the wrong key?
Are there any more professional videos from this night? Anyone?!
Does anyone have the sheet music for waco groove
6:57 is Satanic
How come their uniforms say SFA?
It sounded terrible at 6:57
Didier Morin-Laprise TBH, the whole thing sounds terrible, cause Mumford & Sons.
Didier Morin-Laprise it sounded creepy
Didier Morin-Laprise How can you tell? Mumford & Sons always sounds terrible.
Ha! Poor Ben!
THE GUY DANCING IN THE BACK AT 6:00 OH MY GOD
WHAT IS AIR

What a combination! This marching band & Mumford and Sons. Still, it fits. Nearly disruptive...
Mesmeric. Yup, those kids have no rhythm but they are great musicians.
aaaaaaaahahahahaha xD
Ben you're drunk go home, haha
Those kids were in tune, Mumford and sons were out of tune!
King Shite Yeah, the marching band didn't mess up, it was Mumford's Pianist.
omg, that was bad. He need to look at Marcus more often
lulz
LOL. Ben ruined it.
Hazardous. Sure no risk assessment was completed before putting so many people on stage.
Go Chaps
Those kids have no rhythm at all lol.
so bad
AHAHAHHAHAHA SOOOOO OFF, wasn't mumfords fault, it was that god awful band
