Got the opportunity to play that trumpet solo with a good friend of mine who’s a senior doing the flugelhorn part, we ended up crushing it in our competitions and it was some of the most fun I’ve ever had
So the guy that has it is named Brian, he moved to Ontario last year. He doesn’t have a phone and we’re working on finding a way for him to send it to me either through a mutual friend or some other way

Looking at the is now makes me realize how cool my band teacher is. He was part of the blue devils and as of right now, he’s accomplished many goals after the Metamorph. Concluding him being the lead trumpets is very awesome. As a trombone player myself it’s very awesome seeing how much the brass can do. (8th grade btw)
This was the only time where I watched a corps’ show for the first time in June and knew they were winning the whole thing. Usually, there’s at least 2 corps that I think have a shot, but 2017, I knew the other guys had no chance.
This felt like watching a movie. I absolutely loved this show and i still watch it about at least once or twice every other day. Edit: I performed in dci's openclass and i saw blue devils live aswell as being able to perform in Indianapolis omg a dream come true
Competed drum and bugle corp 1975-1978 and The Concord Blue Devils were #1 Nationally back then. Now, I live in the area and am still awed 45 years later.
Yeah, but they are super underrated! Nobody claps for their solos and features, but if they are right after a drumline feature, then they get drowned out by clapping from the drumline fans. Its pretty sad
Definitely prerecorded midi synth. A synth can be quite brassy, especially on fast runs, where the attack of each brass synth note tends to be brighter than the sustain brightness.
At the very beginning, there are 16 snare players, and then 9 of them split off to get 4 tenors and 5 bass drums, so 7 dedicated snare players for this year.
I would love to audios to be in the blue devils marching band! I love their uniforms, and I would want to play the trumpet in this band. My high school marching band director was a member of this band.
My God.. it's all so good... the damn rifles hitting on point every...single... time.. and that low brass.. be still my 💗 lol Ah hell I gotta get myself to dci next year...
JuJu Styles there must of been another corps warming up behind the stadium lol if you listen with headphones at full blast you can hear someone singing
2 months late, but still, the reason that that was repeated was 2019’s show theme. It was about the Blue Devil’s past, them visiting a cemetery of their old shows. You saw motifs to tons of shows, really a legacy show at heart. They are the ghosts of the past illuminating the future of the corps, hence the name “Ghostlight”
I was working at a big event in Utah on finals weekend and basically had to steal one of the event’s courtesy cars to get to a movie theatre in SLC to see the Big Live and Loud simulcast. It was risky; I could have been blacklisted from that event in future years. But what would you have done?
Is it just me or every single time a DCI band gets to the best part, people just HAVE to yell or clap. I know, I'm cranky and I'd probably clap, too... but I just want to hear it clearly!!! ....if there was just one competition where the audience couldn't be present...wait, it's a pandemic, let's do this now!!! DCI 2020 for cranky youtubers ! 😷🤔🤒🤐😄
The drum corps activity has always encouraged the crowd to react to what they like and show appreciation to the kids as they perform - it’s a positive feedback loop enhancing the power, energy, and emotion of the performances in my opinion. I own numerous recordings of performances going back to the 1970s, and it’s great to hear the crowds enjoying the shows - they have become a part of the performances themselves for me.
At 12:25 they need 2 trumpet screamers to hold that note for 12 counts? When angelo in 2019 held that double G In the Britney part for also 12 counts by HIMSELF!
Yeah well you should also consider the fact that Angelo didn’t play any of the Britney part other than the double G and these two had to play a lot of high range before hitting the final double G
endeavor 132 I assume you’re referring to the narration that begins at 0:50 and ends at 1:48. It’s audio of Jerry Seawright, founding director of the Blue Devils Drum & Bugle Corps: “Ladies and Gentlemen, the corps on the field...This is their first year in competition...This is their very first field show...You may take the field when ready.” And it’s part of BD’s show.
One of the few shows this year where I loved every single minute of it.
This & Jagged Line were incredible
I’ve seen everyone and their momma’s view of this...and I never get tired of it. Love it. Don’t see this in South Africa.
Same.

Jesu Spectre woah
You sure like blue devils
Jesu Spectre thank you
BD alumni here.. I never got the larvae reference.. I just thought it was a person fucking a diamond LMAO but I guess that makes more sense. haha
and they also put in the “shine bright like a diamond” at 8:40
I’d hate to see the sheet music for pit
What is pit? I am only in 5th grade band.
@William Barnes Thank you.
Concert got cancelled.

This show truly is evolutionary of the Blue Devils history and idenity. Easy listening to relate and impactful to enjoy!! Great job!

I really would love to see this show in person again! Much respect for the corps for putting out an amazing show
6:45 its time to get serious
Bruh I noticed that too lol
At first I thought you meant pit then I looked at the drum major
Too sexy
One of the recent Blue Devils that I really enjoy every part of. Music, theme, visual package, and execution are fabulous. Bravo.
I feel that way about their 2019 show as well - I actually like it a little bit better than the 2017 show.
listening to the brass gives me goosebumps and chills
Ditto. Trumpet player here!
So much effort put in by everyone concerned to produce this show. It is phenomenal. What’s not to like? It is great. Thank you.
That was amazing!!!!!! I loved it and was captivated the entire show!!!! 👊🏽
slowly spiraling into another youtube marching band binge!
12:28 and 12:45 the unison lead trumpet double high Gs sounded good.
The rifles clicking at 3:57 is so satisfying
The fact the entire battery played snare at the beginning, and that clean is absolutely insane
You can tell the PIT is having so much fun, you can just see their energy. 10:57
Yeah, but they are super underrated! Nobody claps for their solos and features, but if they are right after a drumline feature, then they get drowned out by clapping from the drumline fans. Its pretty sad
The audio quality on this video is on point!!
7:46 looks like somebody forgot to tighten their cymbal arms
4:46 am i the only one hearing it zipper up chromatically?
it's a synth right? I don't hear it quite well to tell lol
@@robert7357 it sounds too brassy to be a synth... it's weird
it should be the lead trumpet as it’s range increases it the top not of that chord in the pyramid
@@judenoles8784 ah okay i see what you're saying
Definitely prerecorded midi synth. A synth can be quite brassy, especially on fast runs, where the attack of each brass synth note tends to be brighter than the sustain brightness.
All i can say is great show and i want one of those sheet things in the beginning ( to the right )
7:46 the vibe guy lost both cymbals 😂
shouldve tightened those wingnuts lmaoo
2:38 dat snare part tho
Literally my favorite thing ever
@@Thatwhitef36 same
Call BD overrated all you want, that closer will bring anyone who loves the sport to tears
Good show and I like how the drumset is listening to the battery I really want to be a blue devil
Holy sh*t how many snares do they have 😱
Ultimately not as many as you see. Similar to mellophones playing trumpet for a bit during the show.
In the beginning, there are 16 snares, but then 4 of them playyed Tenor Drum and 5 of them playyed the Bass Drum.
At the very beginning, there are 16 snare players, and then 9 of them split off to get 4 tenors and 5 bass drums, so 7 dedicated snare players for this year.
@@broken_stick8906 I believe there are 9 snares. The total size of the battery is 18.
Actually that’s weird. They start the show with 16 snares. Idk where the other two are but eventually there are 9 total.
12:35 never gets old
11:26 is my favorite part
p i t f e a t u r e
@@SaneTheBro let's be honest. This entire show was a pit feature lol
@@Ilostmyschmungus and thats why we love it
7:49 I never noticed that second trombone solo until now, but damn those are some high notes.
Edit: This is the only version where I can even hear it
I need 6:55 on spotify. I'd jam to it all the fucking time.
Absolutely BADASS!
I would love to audios to be in the blue devils marching band! I love their uniforms, and I would want to play the trumpet in this band. My high school marching band director was a member of this band.
Nice video T. Great seats too. None better in my opinion: the seats...and The Devils.
Oh my god I’ve performed here 5 times for boa (we won our most recent)
2:15 wasn't there a stick click there
Bruh Momment yes I was thinking the same thing
Since it’s an earlier run in the season it seems that they hadn’t added the stick click yet
Oh i thought they cut it lol
This run was on Saturday, July 29, 2017, two weeks before world championship finals.
They changed it later on
Love Javier's tone man....
This is why blue devils best line
My God.. it's all so good... the damn rifles hitting on point every...single... time.. and that low brass.. be still my 💗 lol Ah hell I gotta get myself to dci next year...
I had a competition here 2018
Wow at 7:45 the cymbal on the vibraphone falls, and at 8:02 the cymbal on that same vibraphone tips over
Okey he must’ve been hitting that cymbal really hard then!!
I’m very confused. I’m looking at whatever I can, and I don’t see the cymbals falling? Can someone help me please?
O
@@finnlinray bottom right marimba
Tip over I mean
10:13 that modulation
Early season; cool. :)
This is late season, there was around 2 more weeks then it was finals weekend.
Bro where’s the stick hits
Yeah, its almost impossible to synchronize them, so they sound sloppy
I think he's talking about snares in the beginning. This was early season so it wasn't added until later on.
7:49 dont tell me that for the amount of times i've listened to this ballad that i've never heard that soundtrack in the back of the girl singing
P Mil ok wtf I’m freaking out they must’ve cut it or I’m deaf wtf
What do you mean? Im confused
JuJu Styles there must of been another corps warming up behind the stadium lol if you listen with headphones at full blast you can hear someone singing
Cooper M it’s cool cause it matches perfectly with the melody
99% sure it's horns and not vocals. You can sort of hear the same thing in this video: ruclips.net/video/2OMBh_GwfaQ/видео.html
i just realised this is McEachern high school...
Just realized I’m about to compete on the same place BD 2017 preformed. Nice.
Nvm it’s just an exhibition. Still nice doe
6:54 best trumpet solo ever

ya this is the the bit they played for 2019
They played felliniesque in the trumpet feature
This whole show is pure bliss
I only wish I couldn’t seen and heard this in person
Everyone starts somewhere keep your heads up🙏
1:33 thats blue rondo
That hit at 12:38 is PRISTINE
is it me or is this performance at a higher tempo than normal
Andy I agree but this was an earlier run so mabye they just sped up and stuck with it or slowed down later runs
Perfect lines

16 snares..... so cool that they switch instruments though.
2:51 there you go
at 8:04 a cymbal stand falls down

Want a time machine so I get can show this to Ben Franklin. Bet he’d crap his freakin pants.
t ask foe this recording what camera you use for nice recorded musc i think i like to hear PIT (percusion in tools)
nice good quality
Which model Samsung? Great audio range you have recorded for the listening audience
Julianto suroso.. Wah.. Ada juga orang indonesia disini 😁
My bd was in this show
how do you perform behind this... its sucks to be the corps waiting to perform next thinking WTF :(

They were doing this at the beginning of the season?? That was unreal!
