PENN STATE BLUE BAND - Halftime Show at the Alamo Bowl (onfield drumline POV) 2007
I've been meaning to upload this for a long time. The halftime show from the 2007 Alamo Bowl. It's a shortened version of a West Side Story show we played earlier that season.There were no GoPros in those days... I taped a point & shoot camera to my carrier and hoped for the best!

Some more fun notes. One of my favorite passages of BB music, towards the end: 4 eighth notes, diddles on "& 2 &" into an 8th note 5:4 tap roll over the barline (in 3/4) into an 8th note triplet tap roll, ending with two accented 8ths into the downbeat.

    • @TheMokeleMbembe
      @TheMokeleMbembe 3 роки тому

      This version of Parade Order's beginning is basically the same as the one from SCV's cadence Electric Wheelchair. Both that and Metamorph (I'd imagine, given how it goes) took from Steve Gadd's intro to "Legend of the One-Eyed Sailor" by Chuck Mangione. That intro was itself based on an old rudimental solo called Crazy Army.

      Yes indeed! It was a challenge to clean sometimes, but also fun to play in that large a line. Plus, the 2007 line only had one true rookie on snare (who I think had marched Surf already and would go on to play bass for the Cadets), so that aggregate skill level helped.

      @TheMokeleMbembe 3 роки тому

      ​@@zidanesousa18 Parade Order has been the name of the PSU cadence since the 80s at least. It used to have a different beginning (and evolved in other ways), but sometime in the early 90s it was changed to incorporate the Legend of the One-Eyed Sailor/Electric Wheelchair intro, as well as the Jam section from Wheelchair (which was itself based on a short drum break from Sting's 'Englishman in New York'). And yeah, in Parade Order, the singles that SCV plays at the end just became a roll. Sometimes we'd split it (as in this video). We did at one point work on cleaning the left handed 16ths into 32nd note singles but there was too much else to focus on so it just fell by the wayside. Also, just speaking of parts of other cadences that are incorporated, the tenor independence groove is from an old BD cadence called 'Dick.'
