[@rocinanteferox4267]

"Oh, my god!"

[@Speedroute]

my heart stopped when your slide came out at 3:05 😭

[@holymanatee8464]

Blud’s slide came out😭

[@Athe1as]

I played mellophone in my high school marching band and really miss playing it. Loved watching this video!

[@FBarnacle]

If you don’t love, love, LOVE the dark, round sound of the mellophone, your soul is as black as the Coat’s guard’s black veiled hats. 😈💙💪

[@GavinDaniel154]

[@ThatOneBenjamin]

[@Zennex._]

Nothing can stop the m4 king Lucas Williams

[@bentonbankston9164]

At BOA San Antonio 2022 prelims, my main tuning slide on my mello flew out when I snapped down and I had to go through part 4/rest of the show with out it. Didn’t get it back until I got out to the parking lot with the props since boa is timed. So basically I couldn’t play anymore until I got it.

[@davispogor4460]

Benton? No way!

[@jace123453]

3:05 🤣

[@dci_boi]

The goat

[@kishibe__rohan]

Tak berkedip menontonnya 👏💪

[@NK12038]

That one slide always manages to fall out for me too, I oiled it one good time some months ago and now it's always trying to slip away

[@vikaauliaqoirun.8978]

WOAHHH

[@dripchico]

too much drip it’s getting in the way

[@finnley-7188]

This makes me want to switch from baritone to mellow

[@Femboyyssssss]

You should I was a baritone in concert band then switched to horn. Best change in my life and now I can play mellophone and it’s been a blast this year. Can’t wait for BOA at indi this week

[@jester8108]

i put a jolly rancher in mouth as you were mentioning the jolly rancher

[@InVizuol]

Imagine being a really good 16 year old player you makes the Blue Devils and this being one of your first years. Performing in front of hundreds of people after winning against a lot of adults

[@CnDpops]

What’s with the Blue devils trumpet players doing a jojo reference?

[@FeBacat-xq5lv]

2:51 everyone say gary

[@bysuke-]

BD uses hammond mello mouthpieces now right?

[@Teptep_803]

im a bit confused on why you kept on asking if you were blinking pls explain

[@izizwhatiziznt]

he's checking to see if he's still recording based on the blinking red light

[@jacobgarza3817]

What mouthpiece is that?

[@charleskee5495]

[@ThatOneHornPlayer]

[@ilikerabiez1830]

BDA uses Hammond mouthpieces for mellos

Hammond 6MP

[@jeofreelezcano8527]

What mellophone used? Is a King 1121SP?

[@sceu25]

Yep

[@Robloxyoutuber19]

Did he lose a point cause he dropped his slide at 3:05

[@sceu25]

No, this was a victory run

[@user-xm6vj9jg2p]

His instrument broke. That’s just crazy.
