Watching these videos always makes me wanna be in a marching band cause the hype level you get from just watching it is incredible, imagine how great it feels to actually do it and HEAR people hyping you up?! Also just the drums I've always wanted to play ✨
@@AntonioSilva-ib3rt I wouldn't honestly love to but I'm a sophmore in highschool now and I was told that if I didn't start instruments in middle school then I can't join in highschool at all. :/
Jelly Belly why I joined in high school too you just got to be committed to your instrument and not give up and that come from a tuba player because tuba is one of the hardest instruments to learn but I have love for the horn and now I’m pretty good at it it’s never too late
Two different style drumline.A&T CS is just all entertainment. They put on a show for the people. NSU "MT" focused on being clean and showing technique. Displaying discipline and musicianship.
I have to agree, while I don’t know much about HBCU bands and drumlines I’ve noticed that NSU is highly focused on technique and playing clean. While I think these guys are good, they don’t compare to NSU. I’ve only ever been exposed to corps style marching and have started watching these more and more. Every video I see of NSU I’m constantly blown away.
I will never understand why they be hating on Cold Steel. Norfolk is great too but they don't have what Cold Steel has. They both NCA&T & NORFOLK bring their own unique style to the MEAC.
Both drum lines are great. The boos are annoying though. It’s the only thing I hate when other bands come to NSU to perform. I can’t even hear certain cadences well because of the boos. And this is coming from a Virginia resident 👏🏾
" I ain't even gonna lie... COLD STEEL is the best male DANCE GROUP in all of HBCU bands!!.............and the way that they add a little drumming here and there into their routine is super creative!
@@musyckman I have watched band brawls and drum line comps between NCAT and Norfolk from all the way from 2008 to now , and it is always Norfolk crowd doing most of the booing. Regardless of who is booing, it is so unnecessary. Especially when you knowww a band did a good job and you boo them? That is just straight up hate lol. Both are bands are good . And i am well aware it's rivalry. I didn't need the explanation, but thanks.
Please trust me when i tell you that im being as objective as i possibly can. Mdfs didnt do anything that cs could not have done themselves.However, it was mdfs quints that put their performance over the top. Yes, *plinks* and all. Which brings me to this. A&T has some of the best quints in the business, been that way for several years now. Video after video shows these guys playing some difficult and technical passages all on the heads. No rim shots no plinks. Cs needs to capitalize on these guys more.
operative words: COULD NOT HAVE DONE. Fact is that they didn't do anything close to what MD could do. If that was the case then they should have demonstrated that during this exhibition. THAT is the time you show what your section is made of. If A&T has some of the best quints in the business then please tell this guy in the video link below who saw both lines and said that to him MDFS had the best tenor feature of all time because I didn't find CS on his list. plinks and all. ruclips.net/video/FWGptlh_KA8/видео.html
To put dance coordination with unique style of play is hard, to do something that no other drumline has done before shows precession, and well put together show. To attract younger people that are in high school. Recruitment for these guys are easy. No brainer, I'm from Hampton Va. NSU was okay the quincy was good, but do the samething without looking down and standing still. That would have empress me. A&T STAYED MOVING ALL THE TIME. NO wonder they get requested every year internationally. And win Honda battle of the bands each year.
Totally agree. Even during NSU quint segment some were looking up others looking down details and syncing is important too. That takes skill and practice.
Thankyou. All these folks be talkin about CS focus on entertainment while MD focus on being technical and clean. Bullllllshit, CS has increased their technicality and cleanliness exponentially over the last 10 years but it'll never be good enough for yall unless they change their instrumentation, style and become as one dimensional as most of these other lines, then you'll claim they jackin yall style. Please move on with that.
Raven Bell they real clean. That’s cuz the Hardest thing they play is triplets. They are a great great entertainment drum line. Probably the best. But we ain’t EVEN about to pretend Cold steel is the most technical and musically inclined. Not saying they the worst... just that ain’t they area
Who is that had they hater aide talkin about boo. They know that was 🔥 NCAT all day baby. They did that!!! Bet yall ass was cheering at the end of this one!!!
NCAT show was so basic and predictable. They looked like a middle school line compared to MDF$ looking like Top tier DCI corp.. Yall gotta step it up. Y'all getting lazy living off y'all old reputation..
Colin Harris played every rudiment in every time signature with all dynamics displayed. They was chopping so hard the crowd that's dumb to music knew they was laying some heat down.
All them moves and no clean sound to many pepole playing louder than eachother i like white college drum lines they are more cleaner like duke there chops are stupid clean
Adrienne Smith The best way to describe it is sounding together. If you can hear multiple voices, then it’s not together and thus dirty. In this context, the snares should sound like one (though the sound would be thicker than if it was just one person playing). Example: If you take both your hands and tap them on the same surface at the same time, you’ve played cleanly. If you however offset one hand and let them fall, one hand will obviously hit before the other and won’t be together, or dirty.
itsvenise S there’s nothing to like frfr their whole show is just them throwing drums and doing backflips and it’s the same routine everytime I see them!!
TJ it’s show style they are not going change that. You are better off watching dci and NSU. Cold steel are hitting rudiments but you are not going to notice bc they will always give you visuals. I like the show style mix with corps. When they perform a new show, you are not going to like it bc it will always have the visuals. They have some videos where they are not moving.
Girl on tenor pushed dude out the way at 5:15 and got her jam on! Lol
I think that was planned but great showmanship lol
Nah that wasn’t planned hit it was still funny. I dug it
I’ll just say this. I got respect for CS and when y’all slowed it down and grooved, that was tough.
Watching these videos always makes me wanna be in a marching band cause the hype level you get from just watching it is incredible, imagine how great it feels to actually do it and HEAR people hyping you up?! Also just the drums I've always wanted to play ✨
Join i promise it’s worth it and that helps you out in college to get more money

Your body goes into automatic. It's a rush!! You turn into a robot when you really into it. When it's showtime ain't no feeling like it.

Smh I ain’t gone front son, I got my cardio done fa the day just watching Cold Steel
Nate B. ChillinG they did too lol!! The most dancing ass drum line I ever seen lol
Both drum lines are great. The boos are annoying though. It’s the only thing I hate when other bands come to NSU to perform. I can’t even hear certain cadences well because of the boos. And this is coming from a Virginia resident 👏🏾
They boo because they rivals. Many HBCU rival bands boo each other no matter how good
no matter how good the performance is.
When NSU travels to T its the same environment sooo...
A King's Kid exactly
2018 band brawl you don’t hear that much booing at Greensboro. The videos show that.
DANG! My eyes couldn't even keep up this was so amazing. Great job
NCAT has some nice funky cadences
I can't lie I Enjoyed both bands were awesome and it took hard work to perform the cadences. GREAT JOB COLD STEEL 🥰💛💛💛
Those cymbals are dope! Cool shit
Gotta give respect to these guys for doing all those stick tricks with no spare sticks
Dope
I totally agree. The tricks and visual are amazing.
Shit makes me anxious lol
" I ain't even gonna lie... COLD STEEL is the best male DANCE GROUP in all of HBCU bands!!.............and the way that they add a little drumming here and there into their routine is super creative!
🤣
Boy yo ass wish you was STEEL don't you? Yo weird ass be on all they videos hating and commenting LMAO
They showed out! #ColdSteel
Was the Booing necessary?? Very distasteful.
Autumn Cox I guess: call it a repeat of what A&Ts crowd did to NSU last year...which was way worse. It’s a rivalry after all

@@autumn5211 when you comment be ready for replies or don't post lol
Both schools boo and I mean BOTH. Those cats in Aggieland don’t play. So save that mother Teresa stuff for another day.
A&T gets boo'd in Norfolk and NSU gets boo'd in Greensboro. Is what it is. College rivalries are hostile environments
Excellent!!!!! Despite what goes on outside the world they still hold true to their foundation and core values

No.
I LOVED IT 😘😘😘
Not the cleanest, but I respect their originality and entertainment value. You definitely get a cardio workout on Coldsteel line. LOL!
TheTriggerMan they’re clean ash

justjay07 you sound dumb asab lmao
Awesome job I enjoyed this!
That STEELE was out COLD💛👏👏👏
The Booing cause they good. Name another college drumline that has a movie name after them
Morris brown...
Bryan Kinsey 🤣🤣...touché
Amazing
MDF$ had that. Both were good. But there was a distinct difference.
F.A.O.D !
Who is that had they hater aide talkin about boo. They know that was 🔥 NCAT all day baby. They did that!!! Bet yall ass was cheering at the end of this one!!!
Lol that shit was cold no capp😂😂 A&T coming with High Musical 5 out here🔥
anyone know where I can get one of those NCAT ADIDAS warmups? Outfit is MEAN!
🔥🔥🔥
Cold Steel EAT every time
Cool
MDF$ gave Coldsteel a free “How To Finesse” workshop!!
Band means everyone
boos really????
Haterz
Maybe cause they were at Norfolk
@@Angel-vi4ry because you don't come to Norfolk with halfway sh*t, must not know their crowd very well
Lazurus Redd nah it’s only because they in Norfolk lol
@@zaishaw6602 would have been no different if they were in the Carolinas
What’s the rudiment @ 9:32 ?
Nick Coleman Herta’s
I think A&t would benefit by using white sticks. I can't see the visuals.
Yeahmon
Throw the damn thang
11:40
I should have not watched the other side first...they mopped this crew!
Definitely did not.
Love cold steel but the cymbal females players need some work done... sticking out like a sore thumb......
ALLOT GOING ON HERE 😒 I'LL STICK TO THE SWAC..
Too much going on.......gimme WT & I'm good!
SWAC drumlines really don't chop like MEAC drumlines
@@ProtectYaNeck01 at all…
cold steel took it simple
If you wanna be MDFS you gotta come to NSU! There is only1!
MDF$ washed, or better yet dry cleaned them. It was cute but MDF$ was inspired, even with the drum stick drop. That was a historic was whooping.
These lines have the wrong names. NSU is colder and NCAT is funkier.
NCAT show was so basic and predictable. They looked like a middle school line compared to MDF$ looking like Top tier DCI corp.. Yall gotta step it up. Y'all getting lazy living off y'all old reputation..
pfunkbro I enjoyed it but true it is starting to get kinda predictable tbh
pfunkbro and what mdf do that was not basic
Colin Harris played every rudiment in every time signature with all dynamics displayed. They was chopping so hard the crowd that's dumb to music knew they was laying some heat down.
pfunkbro yeah that’s true the crowd did go crazy but they did have home court advantage
Why should they do something new there. I wouldn’t. You wouldn’t be able to hear it with all that booing plus it is not their hometown.
Not the band
The title says nothing about the band 🥴
A&T took that L
Nigga no.
Elijah Highsmith Nigga yes
KaiTheGuy
😂😂😂😂 LMAO
@@kaitheguy3634 nigga hell no they def cranked up on Norfolk drumline maybe a different story but nah they def didn't take a L
You funny
This was weak af lmao
All them moves and no clean sound to many pepole playing louder than eachother i like white college drum lines they are more cleaner like duke there chops are stupid clean
But they no rythm and there boring
And white college bands are boring asf
Marquil Biggers im talking about there drum lines
Rayshawn cross they not same as a hbcu drumline
They drumline will never do what hbcu can do with that dry mess. We created musicshipology period.
Snares sound dirty
I’m really asking a question...what does it mean when people say playing dirty on snares? I am just curious.
Adrienne Smith The best way to describe it is sounding together. If you can hear multiple voices, then it’s not together and thus dirty. In this context, the snares should sound like one (though the sound would be thicker than if it was just one person playing).
Example:
If you take both your hands and tap them on the same surface at the same time, you’ve played cleanly. If you however offset one hand and let them fall, one hand will obviously hit before the other and won’t be together, or dirty.
Jon B thank you I always wonder about that. I see that comment all the time.
Adrienne Smith Yeah what he said. Lol! .
@@itsvenises2520 honestly these people don't know what clean is. They played very well.
I’m ready for a new show from warm rust I mean cold steel............ 🙄
TJ 😂😂😂
Demitry Smith honest mistake 😂😂😂🤷🏾♀️
Why you don’t like them?
itsvenise S there’s nothing to like frfr their whole show is just them throwing drums and doing backflips and it’s the same routine everytime I see them!!
