Wow. This is one of the best solos I’ve ever seen...even amongst other DCI snare champions. Great execution and technicality but-most importantly-it’s INCREDIBLY well written. He really knows how to play to a crowd. Awesome. 10/10.
I disagree. I love the fact that they're so hyped for him and just having a good time. The soloist's performance + the audience's response to that performance = pure positive synergy.
for some reason, it feels weird seing someone from vanguard do all those stick tricks. but this was great, he actually played some musically sensical beats as opposed to the BD guys who did stick tricks and played some somewhat random stuff
I'm literally crying! This is... I'm speechless!!!! And, if this is how good all the snares on Santa Clara Vanguard are, I want to see the whole drumline in action!!
I love people hatein just cause they could never do this in their wildest dreams!! I have seen people do all of this in real life. There is nothing fake about it, just raw talent!
This man has chops that all you fools wish you had. hes my best friend and jonz brother so i better not see any negative crap on here. he did his thing and left his legacy so i suggest you all try and do the same. a proud day in scv history right here.
no... Both Emmanuel and Anthony have a great quality of sound. They both march with great corps. And they are both great people. You can not say that one or the other has way better sound quality than the other. You just can't! They are both masters of their craft with very different styles. They both have contributed a lot to the activity. Keep it positive people!
I was there and it was amazing. Hype???!!! You should have been at the tenor "show", we were dancing on our chairs. As an alumni of SCV it was a proud moment.
don't get me wrong, i thought anthony porter's solo was visual rapage. but when i was watching it i felt like i was watching blast and every other i&e snare solo all over again. either way, hey they're still awesome
All I know is, I wasn't doing stuff like that back in the 1980s when I marched with thw Bluecoats! Great Chops, and lots of shedding gives you alot more options musically.
@evega420 manny himself said that the reason he auditioned for bd was that scv had scheduled camps on performance dates for pulse, the winter line he was already playing with at the time. pulse went on to win wgi. i think any drum staff with their wits about them would encourage their players (especially one such as manny who'd been on the line for three years at that point) to perform in wgi instead of forcing them to choose. another member went to the coats because of the whole ordeal.
He played a much more difficult solo this year. But it was given a score of 92.(I heard he dropped his stick or something) This year was just way more competitive.
The good part- This guy's sound quality, drum tuning, execution, and playing style/form seemed a little better than the other guys. But the not so good part- a couple of the other guys had better content and more notes, more difficulty, and better structure in their solos, particularly R Nader. But, I can see the justification for this solo winning, though I would have placed it second (based on the solos/vids I saw). This guy did a very good job and his playing looks and sounds great.
major props, w/e on the ticks, but it sounded a lot cleaner than some of the vids i've seen of recent winners, I'm really impressed by this guy, my only thing is the other SCV guys shouldn't have been right in fron tof the judges and then go crowd him at the end, be a little more professional...
cause of the tricks he does i think. my high school plays with tilts and i tried doing the tricks he does with the tilt and it was real tricky. but i can get them playing flat. that's my best guess.
How they said E M A N U E L in the beginning gets me everytime
Pearl snares sound so great. His rimshots are like gunshots.
I agree

My man was NO JOKE playa! One the best very best to ever do it.
I just don't know what to make of this, its incredible but the crowd hype has me losing my shit lmao
I disagree. I love the fact that they're so hyped for him and just having a good time. The soloist's performance + the audience's response to that performance = pure positive synergy.
13 years later, and I'm cheering out loud with his fellow members/audience!
wow, he's got amazing sound quality and is in total control
I agree. SCV has been layin it down for the past several years with a light touch. Remember the '04 line?
When he opens up the sound vents you can actually hear a difference! Cool.
What just what did I just watch? Mind warp. UNDENIABLY GREAT.
for some reason, it feels weird seing someone from vanguard do all those stick tricks. but this was great, he actually played some musically sensical beats as opposed to the BD guys who did stick tricks and played some somewhat random stuff
he killed all the devils that year!
I'm literally crying! This is... I'm speechless!!!! And, if this is how good all the snares on Santa Clara Vanguard are, I want to see the whole drumline in action!!
*shot* *click* *smack* *kick*
I love people hatein just cause they could never do this in their wildest dreams!! I have seen people do all of this in real life. There is nothing fake about it, just raw talent!
dude he rocked. i was there. in fact i think i was right behind this camera guy.
This man has chops that all you fools wish you had. hes my best friend and jonz brother so i better not see any negative crap on here. he did his thing and left his legacy so i suggest you all try and do the same. a proud day in scv history right here.
Hahahah i love the way he kicked his stick

thats the cleanest solo i have ever heard.
Sound Quality is just perfect!
Put me in that room in my dreams brain.
Some of the sickest chops I've seen in a while and I marched Blue Devils in 2005.
Art Vandelay I thought you were an architect ?
he was so much better than every one else.
AMAZING!!!
the quality is out this world .. damn i wish i could play like that ;(
that solo was awesome
amazing sound quality!
Oh yeah so you have an I&E First place ring. You sir must be great!
i dont get why he is playing flat...but they play on tilts
Keelan Tobia in the beginning he was playing on the other side of the drum so if it was tilted it wouldn’t work
It's his solo, he chose to have it flat lmao
that drum sounds great
Ay lowkey keelan comment under all this hate
proud to say that is my drum now.
My son wanted me to mention the he thought this was the best solo and he also said the solo and player both seemed the "coolest".
I'm glad that someone other than BD (and out of all that could have, SCV!!!) won snare individuals.
excellent sound quality :D
Those alternated ruffs are amazing...
WOW! it's a fucking miracle! one positive comment concerning rudimental drumming to actually come out of betoyeyo.....
Best. Crowd. Ever.
Loved the Grandmas 3:26
His technique is FLAWLESS.
don't get me wrong, i thought anthony porter's solo was visual rapage. but when i was watching it i felt like i was watching blast and every other i&e snare solo all over again. either way, hey they're still awesome
that was a really clutch solo
emmanuel deleon
This is why I want to be in the Vanguard more the any other corp. They always have the best sound quality when I comes to solos IMO.
fkn amazing and the crowd is all SCV Dick! im hella impressed!
He had the hype of the crowd. That's why he won. Look at past winners they didn't have the best solo structure they had the crowd involved.
crazy clean.
This is the definition of sound quality. If anyone ask you what type of SQ they want to strive for? Refer them to this video!
because he's a badass.
what hands.. awesome.
yes, the best
All I know is, I wasn't doing stuff like that back in the 1980s when I marched with thw Bluecoats! Great Chops, and lots of shedding gives you alot more options musically.
anyone else lurking hard for his 2010 performance?
HOLY CRAP! By the way, you know it's clean when you don't hear inconsistencies. And this kid needs to be in his on dumline!
thats the prettiest snare tone I've ever heard, loved the tuning and those roles are unbelievably clean!
damn thats a beast.
btw this is steven from school.
Hooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hey is this manny's channel? well anyway, DUDE your F***in Crazy! I finally got to see your one man show, hope you're doing good neighbor!
Jonez 04
Thats a tastey sounding snare.
Roll sound is sickening. I like really like the wa the drum is tuned. what heads is he using?
That man at 4:29 is the most single most intimidating person I have ever watched in the lot, those who have seen him will agree
holy shit
ahehe !
thanks !
MABUHAY ANG MGA PINOY ! :D

word
@PeanutButterGorilla he has amazing control.
i wish i had that many friends lol
not human
good God...
what place he got?
where can i get a copy of this?
I noticed he placed 4th or 5th this year. I wonder if he played this same (or similar) solo, anyone know?
what did the girl put under his snare?
Wow. It's not fake. It's called a roll.
No, he taps for Vanguard, there is another guy from SCV thats at COats now though.
does any one no where this guys from cuz my last name is de leon
Because of the technique he was using.
his drum harness
I believe his name is emmanuel de leon
what did katherine put on the ground to make everybody cheer?
Who is marching with now
He played a much more difficult solo this year. But it was given a score of 92.(I heard he dropped his stick or something) This year was just way more competitive.
0:04???
oh okay, thanks.... well he's a cool guy to hang with :)
SCV Snare Line ?
FIST PUMP
ivan pacheco did it with his elbow
cpt morgan pose is actually the left leg
Lickers split guy?
The good part- This guy's sound quality, drum tuning, execution, and playing style/form seemed a little better than the other guys. But the not so good part- a couple of the other guys had better content and more notes, more difficulty, and better structure in their solos, particularly R Nader. But, I can see the justification for this solo winning, though I would have placed it second (based on the solos/vids I saw). This guy did a very good job and his playing looks and sounds great.
they have people competing every year.
same judge too
What the heck is he playing at 4:04 going on. That stick flash going with the music is just crazy.
major props, w/e on the ticks, but it sounded a lot cleaner than some of the vids i've seen of recent winners, I'm really impressed by this guy, my only thing is the other SCV guys shouldn't have been right in fron tof the judges and then go crowd him at the end, be a little more professional...
This was the best solo last year?
@PeanutButterGorilla truth
cause of the tricks he does i think. my high school plays with tilts and i tried doing the tricks he does with the tilt and it was real tricky. but i can get them playing flat. that's my best guess.
