Seriously - fell into a rabbit hole tonight having never given this any thought. Now I've watched the competition to become a drum major and seen firsthand where John's tryouts have taken him. What a gifted man!!!
Great vid, thank you. Coming from a football player perspective the skill, talent, discipline and team work these musicians show is impressive and inspiring

See you could have been a baton twirler, instead of a young nurse had you only applied yourself and worked hard at it. Instead you chose the easy way out. Understandable.
I’m only two years late watching this. Lol. But.......wow. Fantastic to watch. I was there in pers during his try outs. No one even came close to how good you are John!
@@WaterEnjoyerXD FROM WIKIPEDIA: During the introduction and verse of "Buckeye Battle Cry", the drum major enters the stadium running down the ramp, then struts through the band and comes to the front of the ranks where they execute a back bend, forming their body into the shape of an O.

It's an art that you dont understand. That move he dose is athletic and really hard to do. Just because your flexible doesn't mean you gay. But if a girl did it you wouldn't say a word...
@otisthecow...love your name....but to reply to your reply.....no, he wouldnt say a thing because guys like him are in the deepest and darkest of their closets...!!!! @@otisthecow
Lordmick roach: your lordship, off to the Tower with you. Such an unsavoury character you are old chap. I understand that these Americans, these colonials, one might say, are not of your class and upbringing. However, Drum Major LaVange (is he of dubious French heritage by chance?), bends over backwards to make amends. Off with your head old son.
even when i’m having a bad day i can watch the band and drum major entrance and it changes everything
John is clearly a special guy. He has such an apparent love for what he's doing that you can't help but feel it and be inspired by it.
had no idea this was a thing and now i am entirely obsessed

He’s the greatest Drum Major ever!!!
I love this guy! I really see him as one of the best drum majors of our time. He's also a very good musician and composer! Who knew? ¯
Yes. I clicked more on his channel & listened to his music- it's really good.

There should be a network dedicated to marching bands. We never get to see great stuff like this ion TV.

i'm not a "band" person at all - but the precision of the OSU band is mesmerizing.
Awww, too bad you aren’t a “band” person!
@@truthsetsyoufree4022 is there a point to that stupidity?.........or are you just that lonely to post meaningless drivel?
John LaVange:
Changing the World. One Baton at a Time.
I can watch good drum majors all day and night!!!
I used to love to twirl a baton when I was a teen.

Sir,YOU ROCK!!!!
Why do the Drum Majors bend backwards and touch their hats to the ground? What is the tradition? I never get tired of watching OS Band!!!
He bends his body into the shape of an "O."

I want to march walk like that at work, so they all know I`m a company trooper.
Absolutely perfection!!
Imagine doing a back bend, and not being able to get up again.
That is how to make an entrance. THE BEST!!
taking the goose step to a whole new level
John you’re the best !!! And very handsome
He is gooooood. The band is awesome.
the fist bump at the end was so hard ngl
I am going to do a call out....Let’s just do this!!!!! FAMU vs OSU in Atlanta!!!!!
Amazing
Great stuff Maynard.
at the end he gives the dude next to him a fist bump lol
I enjoy wayching this guy.
Kick ass !😎
Is this the same band where the tuba smacked the shit out of the camera man.
Everytime i see these i think of the jerry lewis movie family jewels lol
Absolutely hilarious! Love the goosestepping, but how did they train so many crossing guards to march so well?
You must be a Xichigan fan.
No matter the school, marching bands rule!!!!
If I recall, this game the cheerleaders could have played and still have beaten the MD Twerps!
That fist bump
Why is the crowd actually clapping in time lol
Look at the "Prancing Ponies"
TBDDMITL!!!
I like this tradition and dotting the I, but I'm not a fan of the "three knock" ceremony.
That’s that dance from fortnite. Fortnite is going to get sued again
That run that he dose is a thing a lot of drum majors do. Is not owned by anyone
No wonder he needed back surgery
Desperate 😂
GAY !!!!!

He was the goat of drum majors

@When mom doesnt find poop sock Oh indeed I am, but this is comedy surely?

This is truly hilarious and ridiculous at the same time, if this was the idea you nailed it.
