The marching band name "Antelope Titans Marching Band" did the prank and slightly show off to the judges for the Parade Marching Band Website: antelopeband.org/
For y'all that are commenting on our marching, we were doing heel-toe marching that year, and march with a DCI style rather than a southern style. We wanted to add Imperial March because there were a bunch of us who loved Star Wars and it was a favorite among our pep band songs. We wanted to stand out and make the Christmas parades more fun for both us and the audience, rather than having the stereotypical "band plays well known Christmas songs and marches down the street". It was more of a fun surprise rather than a prank. I was a freshman snare player in this video and I'm in college, so everyone that you see here has since graduated.
How fun to stumble across this! I have always enjoyed the Antelope Titan Marching Band's "Santa Parade", which incorporated the Imperial March into the middle of Jingle Bells. (Not necessarily a prank, per se, but it is fun!)
Aubrey Lyn Hayes please enlighten me.. As a marcher and lead trumpet for my hs band, I am having trouble understanding what about "imperial march" is a prank??
Just for everyone's knowledge the song they were playing was called "Santa's Parade" I played it in a Christmas parade in Junior college with the Bakersfield College Renegades Marching Band in the early 1990s. Yes we were marching heel to toe
If none of you get it heres your answer: Christmas themed band Plays christmas music Whats also in christmas? Star wars. Badabingbadaboom Play imperial march Now star wars is christmas
This is Admittedly one thing I greatly envy about, America. I'd LOVE to see a marching band parade!! Or a parade at all tbh. The only thing I've ever seen in England was the Royal Guard parade around Buckingham Palace - which was spectacular, don't get me wrong, but that was 15 years ago, I'd love to see another one!!
California eastern part of the state probably the southern region so around San diego to Arizona area around early morning or late afternoon from what I can tell!
I remember this, when i was a young boy my father took me in to the city to see this
Oof, this comment is so underrated, but of course, only certain people will get it.
I see what you did there
Ah, i see
Was it a long, long time ago?
Yes.

That was awesome
I think they have never been in band of they think this is a prank.
It looks good. Sounds good. What’s the issue?
Ah, so you were marching the only proper way? Good to know! :)
What college did you go to?
I bet they were all like "you know what lets put in a random song to spice it up"
David martinez this was a christmas parade in California, i believe. Not random song. The new star wars movie came out that month.
Oh Thanks
Oh I get it. In the middle the started playing the imperial march.
genius ! ^^
He is talking avout the imerpial march, it wasnt on the script.
DGC Incursio no shit sherlock
hah thats funny. that imperial march thing...
Thanks Captain Obvious...
That marching was flawless
Mr Pedit lol your joking right?
they don't even march
Mr Pedit I agree, their lines are very good. Btw, Christian, what do you mean they don’t march?
That's not marching😂😂😂😂😂😂
If you ain't pumping 90s you ain't marching 😂😂😂
You are never safe from the empire
I love how majestic they transition from the Star Wars song to the Christmas song.
Jingle🔔.
Honestly can we just appreciate how straight those lines were
They was not.
@@Kara_Kay_Eschel what do you mean? Cover downs were amazing
I'm sorry, I just can't get over how perfect that marching was.
*sees marching band video*
*clicks*
*sees them bend their knees*
AAAAAAAAA
Swingset you realize there are different marching techniques right?
I bet Santa Clara Vanguard marching technique would have you foaming at the mouth
Swingset I bet you would die seeing Cavaliers
Not all bands are the same.
Our band uses a mix of straight legged and bent so we bend the knee on the pass but it straightens out once it passes and you hit that spicy toe lift
do you know what "prank" means?
Edit: thanks for the likes😂
i told you our relationship is only for sex, please get out of my personal space...
sorry, but are you going to use the right hand tonight? ; )
im only yours because everyone else uses brazzers now
pornhub spider sex 😄😄😄
This is the best string of comments I have ever personally witnessed
I like how people didn't understand the prank. The band played the Imperial March from Star Wars in a middle of a Christmas Song.
How exactly playing 1 song in the middle of another is a prank?
@@HeavySandvichGuy1 you’ve never been in a band before, have you?
I love Star Wars and Christmas music. For them to do this is AMAZING lmao
pretty good marching band tbfh. wanna see what they look like on a field tho
How fun to stumble across this! I have always enjoyed the Antelope Titan Marching Band's "Santa Parade", which incorporated the Imperial March into the middle of Jingle Bells. (Not necessarily a prank, per se, but it is fun!)
That snare tho, AWESOME
Like how they all can march in sync with the music while playing their instruments while I'm having trouble saluting while marching in a straight line
i'm dying right now hahahhaha. how do you people not get it haha
Rippled no I don't
+BlueGaming are you in marching band?
Rippled I get it xD marching band is awesome!
Aubrey Lyn Hayes please enlighten me.. As a marcher and lead trumpet for my hs band, I am having trouble understanding what about "imperial march" is a prank??
How do you even get this? It's not even a prank wtf?
This looks like Roseville, CA. I say that because of the Train Yard in the background with the Rotaries
I don't get it, what was the prank?
Samuel Heavener yeah?
Maybe The Imperial March
Lol if you don’t get it you don’t deserve to know
Exhausted Preston Garvey I think they get it it’s just not really a prank
Jack Mclaughlin lmao Ik, I was just being sarcastic
That’s a big band,really organized
EEYYYY. THIS IS BEAUTIFUL! Also we played this song for the two holiday parades towards the beginning of December.
Girls: He probably cheating on me. Me and the boys:
So... when they were playing, I could here the solfege in my head.
Did we see a slip into an alternative universe for a few seconds?
UA-cam : *Sees 2021*
Ohhoo another year to recommend this video :D
This is randomly In my recommended and that’s 2 miles from my house
Bro switched games for a sec
OMG yes that is amazing 😂😂😂
Damn bro they straight up did that with a smooth transition
Just for everyone's knowledge the song they were playing was called
"Santa's Parade"
I played it in a Christmas parade in Junior college with the Bakersfield College Renegades Marching Band in the early 1990s.
Yes we were marching heel to toe
The transition was so good
Must be pretty tough having the entire band in on it without the conductor knowing.
May the force be with these godly musicians
Beautiful
That actually fits pretty well
That's a great band
If none of you get it heres your answer:
Christmas themed band
Plays christmas music

Badabingbadaboom

My band director absolutely hates the imperial march. This would be great to do to him.
What kind of person hates imperial march that just saying your hate ice cream
@@B1_224 well he was also a alto jazz sax player so it's kinda expected lol
I feel like my band would do something like this
Perhaps there is hope for humanity after all...
TOOOOOO FUNNY!!! LOVE IT!!!!👍👍👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
santa probably went to a bad mannered kid mid-song
no
California eastern part of the state probably the southern region so around San diego to Arizona area around early morning or late afternoon from what I can tell!
the ratio of quads to other percussion hurt me a little bit, but other than that it was pretty solid.
Darth vader force them to do it
Lol. Dude this isn’t a prank. This is the band. This is what marching band doe s
from the start i thought they were all about to start goose-stepping
This is the jingle march
DUH DUH DUH DUH DA DUH BUM BA DUM!

I remember this i see in this in my country before
Wow, what are the odds they all break into the imperial march all at once like that?? Amazing!!
This is so cool
