I was in the Contra line that year. Thanks for posting this video - it's like a distant dream popping out into reality. Can't even imagine how many times I heard these exercises in the background. It was a GREAT drum line - they deserved a better show.
I laugh every time I see this video---the narration cracks me up every time. The exercise at 1:30 is called "G-Spot" I believe...a spree. Good times ;)
Don't forget Mike Apodoca and Matt Altmire on the quad line. Dudes are awesome. I had the pleasure of being under the instruction of both of them. Altmire in 2006 and Apodoca in 2007. Really cool dudes!
Yeah, he was caption head in 1993. If you search for videos from 1993 you'll see that golden ski-jump mullet in front of some pretty nice beats! :} (you were right about 1990; he was a consultant under Hardimon that year.)
It's really too bad they had such a rammin' book; they ended up not getting rewarded on the field for the talent they put out there. This really was the bookend of ramma-jamma-fighter-pilot lines.
So much talent that year. It just never seemed like they jelled. So many high expectations on the line and the corps as a whole. Loved 'em, tho. Still do.
OMG, I had wondered what happened to this video. It was made by Scotty Sells, and distributed to the pit members in 1992. Is there more footage of it? Thanks for posting it!
yeah man! damn straight! I saw this show (lot & field) so many times that summer! And yeah, let's not forget SCV/ Sco-Jo '93! Dude, listen to that show and some of the breaks! All BD influence my friends! but with SCV style... the one '93 break kinda reminds me of BD '90!... (funk in the tenors/ line!) anyway, that's my take. Love ~""
WOw !!! this first part of the video sounds so DIRTY...sounds like a high school drumline....sure other recordings of this line, are probably better, but this line had some individual talent...
SCV always has been and always will be good... if you think otherwise, try marching Corps, then talk about who is or isn't "good". Any Corps out there is incredible.
At 4:21 the farthest left snare drummer should have better discipline than to wipe his face like that. Even in warm-up. Great video though. By far my favorite Corp. Also my favorite year for this corp.
Wayne viar taught my drumline in HS. I haven't seen this vid in forever. I had the whole thing on VHS back in the day.
0:48 some sound eighth notes there. Drum 2 on those tenors sound amazing too

That tenor fill in electric wheelchair has NEVER sounded that good since

Let's be precise, he was percussion caption head for SCV from 1991 to 1993.

notice the guy with the blue windbreaker on at 2:07? it's scott johnson. he was with SCV from 91-93. you can spot that mullet anywhere.
Colin Mcutt throwing down wild he ending up a tech at Star next year

thanks Myron Vazquez for making this awesome video.
2:39 to 3:03 is the most glorious 24 seconds in film making history.
Lol...old school corps...no filters...
@Papermate123123 His name is Scotty Sells. Aged out in 1991. He was our Tympanist. Was hired as the pit instructor for 92
Right off the at, some Spartacus and some One-Eyed Sailor. Good old 70s-80s.
scv's tenique was a lot more tight back then. now its really relaxed but they are still good as hell though

Maybe it was the vid but a little little bit of dirt there at the beginning....but mad props. This was one of the lines which got me drumming.
haha tenors with the blu blockers on lol
i agreeee
you are right it was 94
you should be able to get it from the DCI web site
at 4:20 far left snare scratches his nose...just thought i'd point that out.
what exercise was the first one the snares played in the dark????
Is there any significance to the t-shirt colors they wear during warmup while they're in halves? It seems pretty random.
