I saw this one live the 2nd day of the season. After missing an entire season...I cried for real after the first hit. I'm incredibly impressed in what they were able to put together in such a short time. This is easily a 90+ point show at this point in the short season. Could have potentially been a winner had they been scoring.
Hands down...this is one of the best DCI performances ever. I absolutely love the arrangement of Kiss from a Rose. Phenomenal. Outstanding. Incredible.
The green machine is back and ready to come back to the top 3. I am so proud of these members for a such great show. I loved the music and energy. I wish they can keep it for the next year. Congrats cavies....
Writer Michael Martin and Brass Caption Head Kevin LeBoeuf along with a super creative design team put there hearts into a performance to keep the true spirit of DCI alive .......in a year where there was no judging.

Mike Martin had wanted to put it on the field for years before the season. He is also one of the reasons we wore the hats during the first movement.@@robthedrummer
Long live the green machine, been watching since 2010 but I knew very well of your past. I was born in 1995, a championship year, they hold a special place in my heart.
@@claytonbinner that mega laser thing (don’t even know what to call it cuz it’s so phat 😂) at the end was crazy kudos to you guys for pulling it off and putting on a great show!
@@maizeorn8529 it is in fact called the Mega Lazer. Invented in 2018 and is a staple of Cavaliers bass drumming. It was actually the easiest of the hard parts of the feature. We had sixtuplets and 32nd notes up and down the drums and those were more difficult to play well.
Every Corps that were at the Celebration all deserves the upmost respect and credit for putting on a show of such incredible quality under difficult times. Unlike other "sports" you root for all participants whether or not they are your home town favorite. There are no losers, just winners.
This whole season there was only three shows that I’ve been watching on RUclips which were phantom, bluecoats, and the crusaders, and I always ranked the bluecoats show the number one of those shows but man this show changed my view of dci and now this is my favorite 2021 show and my second favorite dci show thank you for the upload!
This year has been great because drum corp has gone back to being somewhat traditional...most corps aren't using props and staging...just music and movement this year.
@@retro420 this year was really my first taste of traditional drum corps because I barely got into it in late 2018 and I really enjoyed even though I’m biased to the bluecoats, because they were the corps that got me into dci, I really enjoyed shows like the cadets, phantom regiment, and the cavaliers
Oh for sure! “Traditional” drum corps is definitely where it’s at!! And the shows that have been put on this year prove it. I hope BD and SCV are taking notes!
If you guys are only watching three drum corps, make sure to watch the drum corps that actually were fan favorites! Bluecoats and Boston Crusaders surprisingly didn’t make top five for fan favorite this season but rather they were 1. Phantom Regiment 2. Madison Scouts 3. Cadets 4. Troopers 5. Pacific Crest Personally my favorite show of the season was Cavies, but make sure to check out these guys too because your favorite may be a different show than you thought
I love this type of Cavaliers. Their prog not to abstract and complicated to think and understand, their music and reprtoire is catchy and the drill is so technical and insane... which the whole performance is eyecandy and earcandy... like during their golden era of 90s and 00s... initially I hope that Cavies regain back their identity for d following years after this prog. But it is still not there... i hope Cavies can revisit their past prog n identity... no need to try to bcome like other crops, sacrificing your own idntty for d sake of following trend or evolve through time. You r you. The Green Machine.
Rumor has it that the corps were actually adjudicated but scores were only given to the corps directors or smth, supposedly cavs would have been the winner this year had scores been published. Apparently a lot of the judges working in 2021 were rookie judges who were more or less learning the ropes. Idk how true any of this is tho so take it with a grain of salt
@@cavie95 All due respect to the kids who are working. No slight to them. But this is far, far, far...FAR below the mark for Cavaliers historically. That's just objectively true. I'm glad someone besides me recalls how masterfully designed and difficult those shows were. This is nowhere close. I'm a little appalled that anyone who knows the corps's history would think this compares in any way.
It is nice to see them move away from the boring anthems they played over the years. This is so much more entertaining. Even phantom and the cadets have become more entertaining to spectators. Their execution always was good, but the music choice was boring the last 5 years. I love drum corps.
Just read the contents of Show Design 101. I am assuming this person has some actual experience in this area and, if so, it goes a long way toward what for past 20 years or so has fucked up drum corps for the average viewer. Forget themes, through point and all of that crap. Is it entertaining and is it well done? Does it elicit emotion from the audience? If yes, it is successful. I don’t give a rip about what a bunch of music majors and choreographers think about advancing “the art”.
As an alumni, I might be in the minority here and say I wasn't really into the show. All the sections are great, the horns, percussion, guard... NOT into singing or vocals. Not a fan of the Seal song. The opener was great, certain bits were great. But I miss the power and the precision. This felt way too blue devils or cadets than my boys in green. At least you guys didn't use tv screens like BC I guess. I don't enjoy the activity like I did in the 90's and early 2000's.
While it wasnt the flashy and tight Cavies we know and love from the early 2000s still something about the show that just tickles the fans casuals and hardcore alike cant help but enjoy myself.
@@Dischingo maybe. I just don't see or feel it. Maybe it's an in person thing. Still, I feel it from my bluray discs of old shows so... is it the camera work? The sound? ....
I also didn't like the lack of marching. Lots of free forming and blobbing and body choreography and park n' bark. Seemed like only half the show had any actual marching in it. That being said, they had to make concessions for the shortened seasons and a drill with 30 fewer sets may have been one of those concessions.
@@cavie95 it's a cell phone/camcorder video. Of course it's not like being there live. Was there all 3 nights and it's a completely different experience being there as you well know
I remember when the Cavaliers would have done ten amazing and impossible things in the first two minutes of the show. How far can a corps fall? Apparently very far.
@@billmeistersinger5626 I never forget my coffee, or what a real Cavaliers show looks like. People are saying this is one of the best DCI performances ever? That is literally insane.
@@BruceRichardsonMusic who’s saying that was the best performance ever? It’s a damn entertaining show for a year that only lasted 6 weeks, but of course the drill/choreography isn’t going to be top tier. You’re expecting way too much from a group that had endless limitations. I can guarantee that the cavaliers will be absolutely killer next season though due to the vibe and work environment that was created in a non-competitive season

It was incredible
Karnivool to open it up. Amazing!

My boys! I was there! Cheering them on! And crying of course. Being a Cavalier was the best thing I ever did
How long were u a cavalier?
probably my favorite 2021 show
after a few listens this became my favorite show
they need to write more stuff like this!
The whole "Kiss From A Rose," section had me in chills the whole time. Even felt it in my legs lol
6:40 is the coolest thing ive ever seen live.

Bravo guys. Just want to know who's idea it was to put in Karnivool. I never expected to hear my favorite Aussie band's music in a DCI show..
Mike Martin had wanted to put it on the field for years before the season. He is also one of the reasons we wore the hats during the first movement.@@robthedrummer
I just saw the cavaliers perform in person and what a great marching band they are!!!
Lmao
Lol.
Long live the green machine, been watching since 2010 but I knew very well of your past. I was born in 1995, a championship year, they hold a special place in my heart.
This was FUN! I love how they work fragments of tunes together to create these wild mash ups. I really loved that meaty helping of Kiss from a Rose!
WOW! I saw this live many times, but to this day, it never fails to amaze me.
that is the most perfect ballad of all time
like bro
those transitions in the brass
the percussion writing
HOW DO THEY WRITE THIS STUFF????
Yes Yes Yes from beginning to end my fav of the season and totally unexpected.
Easily the best show of the night for me. I was in the lower stands, middle right. Got blown away by that brass.
What a fun show! Just what we needed after a year off,,,Well Done Cavies!
This is my favorite drum corps show of all time!💚💚
same!
❤️ I got chills multiple times!!
They were astounding, wonderful!!!
Crazy! Great memories of competing against them in the 70’s. I was in Nisei Ambassadors from Chicago. Great to see this!
Their brass certainly did not skip a beat from 2019's line.
8:20 is one of the nastiest bass features in a long time
So so dope
Glad you enjoyed it. It was very difficult to play.

Love this opener, Themata, that is.
This show was so cool!
Lord have Mercy!! Just TOO GOOD!!
Total ear and eye candy. Thank you, Cavaliers, for being awesome.
reminds me a bit of the Cadets shows from 00 and 02 with trademark Cavies all the way through. Nice Show, way to have fun with it!!
This show is so good! The drum features are sooooo good!
hands down best dci ballad
Absolutely the best show of the year
I like it, but it's not like it didn't have competition.
@@declandougan7243 no one is saying they smoked everyone. We're just saying it's probably the best or at least top 2
@@whenisdinner2137 The original commenter did actually just say that. No harm in having that opinion but felt like stating my own.
Love this!! 🔥🔥🔥
New favorite show
Dang this was great
Soooo sick!!!!! Gave me chills! Karnivool!!!!!!
Love it!
Drum Corp shows were so damn entertaining this shortened season. Hopefully the trend will continue.
the marching director at my school was in the cavs. hes a beast
The boys killed it this year!!
Best mellophone section I ever heard hahahaha
There's a throwback to their 2011 show (XtraordinarY) with upside-down playing @8:40 on the left side 30-40yd line!
And the bass line hints at it too during the low brass feature in the opener
They're playing Karnivool!
Dude… that was rad
hella underrated
Sheesh, Cavies brought enough energy to make up for 2020 and more
BRAVO!!!!!!!!
the sing sing sing part 👌
My first dci someone came near me to the cavs now I understand
Karnivool - awesome!
This was thousands times better than the blue devils this year.
This is the cavaliers.
That contra ripple at 8:33 is sick
it was a bit messy, but I mean I have nothing but respect I can't flip a tuba like that
Thanks for pointing that out. I actually marched Cavaliers contra, and didn't even notice that, even though I went back to see the bass feature again.
PR ALWAYS!
8:21 bass feature
My band's low brass instructor is in this. I forgot his last name but his first name is Ryan
WOW.
Is there another video of this performance that shows multiple camera angles? Did DCI judt take the easy road in the celebration night broadcast?
FloMarching probably has a multi-cam video on their website.
WOW!!
Karnivool too?! Awesome
It's a shame they weren't competing that year I think they could have won with this show
FloMarching has nothing on JaydenDSG
Lol
Are you kidding me, this show would've won hands down
They better have some bangers they held on to if they're throwing this show out in a nonscoring season LMAO
cavies owned 2021 no doubt
7:04 got that mars type beat😩😩

This show would have had a lot of corps SHOOK that year. It's almost like they had something to prove.
Basses starting at 8:23…SHWING!!!
during the snare break whats the rest of them saying??
theyre just making drum sounds
It’s called a scat section.

@@oakman978 its written by Miles Kennobie so maybe you've heard something from him which is similar

What is this show about
The cavies 40 year anniversary being taken in by Rosemont Illinois
Sucks for battery not being heard because of the acoustics of the stadium
DCI needs to move Finals/Celebration back outdoors. Too much echo in the drumline. Hard to hear the low brass!
I love the sing sing sing allusion
7:25
The pick up the pieces set threw me off
8:33
This is the original song - Themata by Karnivool!
ruclips.net/video/7nDxSmjJsko/видео.html
Does anyone know what the rest of the band saying during the snare break????
They're scatting
Boo bop be bop la ti dih dah. Jazz scatting.
does the guard seem small? only like 24.
They were smaller than normal but damn they were good
Started as 24, one had to go home for family reasons, other injury, ended with 22
Gee I wonder why a college band can't do anything even close to this.
Green bevils
Classic dci. No glitz outside of the music, drill and guard. The roaring cavies are back
You must have a head injury. Seriously. This is so far off anything they did from 1991 until 2010 or so. Not even remotely in the ballpark.
uh what? Not even close.
