How many times did I say "cut" in this video?
A bunch. I have a degree in math, so you can trust my counting.

@Simon Walrod he took it down💀
As a non-American non-drummer I always thought 'getting cut' meant being kicked out of a team you were already on, not failing the audition/try-out in the first place
It's possible to get cut while on the team.
It’s the Old Guard’s loss, and our gain.
i got cut from every group i auditioned for and when i finally got contracted on snare for my age out i was still cut after the first rehearsal weekend. yeah that stung pretty bad LOL. i ended up getting good hands but i fell apart when we started playing on the move & i never got the experience of playing with a line outside of my high school. there isn’t always a happy ending and that’s just reality. best of luck to everyone else in future auditions! it’s over for this guy
Get behind a drum kit and play metal instead. Drumline guys can bust out outstanding fills and blast beats and their timing is usually impeccable. Do it :)

Eric, you’re simply not old enough to get into the old guard. And you need to start practicing fife. Do it. Fife really is the new chicken! Greetings from the Netherlands.
3:00 19/28 is only a 67.8%, not 69%, UNLESS you consider that he could be counting AGT. 20/29 = 69%, chicken man is advancing confirmed.
It's a joke
I can confirm getting cut will make you a better person if you go about it the right way. At the beginning of the year, before indoor percussion and the online wgi circuit, I was working my ass off to get cymbals and after months of practicing cymbals wrong, I got cut and put on glock. There were some nights were I was just really pissed the whole practice. I’d get home, tell my mom I was doing good, then go in my room and cry. I was obnoxiously loud some nights at practice when playing. Then one night, it hit me. I’m a trumpet player normally, so I get to play decently loud most of the time, but glock is entirely different. It sits on the top of the balance triangle. Sure, I failed at getting cymbals, but I can’t let it hold me back. Glock may have sucked some nights, but it taught me a lot about music and knowing your place in the ensemble. It also humbled me. I’ve been open minded more and more since the season started and even up to now, and when I try for southwind, I’ll sure as hell be ready.
Edit: also good luck other universe Eric
Not sure if this is still relevant to you, but Seavine is putting out instructional videos on how to play cymbals with East Coast technique. SCV also has a playlist with Zildjian demonstrating the West Coast technique; look for the 2018 version, their previous playlist is somewhat outdated.
i was cintracted to march trumpet in 2019. good luck!! i hope you get a full season
@@metazoinqb3rt299 thanks my dood😤🔥
@@tikala1 no I was trying out for trumpet. Thanks tho
I friggin' love all the Banished Beyond references.
Glad I’m not the only ones who saw these. Takes me back… 😂
This similar thing happened to me. I just auditioned for tenor drums for Kansas State University’s drumline in May and I freaking nailed my audition, but unfortunately they only keep 6 tenors as opposed to 12 snares basses and cymbals and the other people who auditioned were on the tenor line last year. As a transfer student from another college I basically just got screwed even though I played it pretty much perfect.
It’s true that you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take... I got cut a bunch from DCI lines and now I’m marching at Bluecoats. Perseverance, discipline, and patience will get you there.
Thanks for the shoutout and mentioning "The Beat of a Differerent Drummer." I knew you played "Moments Later" but didn't remember "Rhumba for Gus." If you don't mind sending me the video (I couldn't find a link) I'd love to see it. Again, thanks for the great performances of my music...I appreciate it!!!!!!!!!!!
Unfortunately I don’t have that video.
I auditioned for the Bluecoats in 2018 (for the 2019 season), and I got cut. I knew they were WAY above my skill level, as I was a self-taught Baritone player who had only been playing for a year.
The important thing is that I put myself outside my comfort zone and went out and tried. You never know what's gonna happen. If you do get cut, then at least you've gotten a great experience out of the audition.
good for you, I too was a baritone (3rd) for CMCC Warriors outta NY. didn't read music, but could play by rote, or written out notes. tried out for drumline, but was offered a euphonium slot (baby contra) and eventually a baritone.
@@user-yq3fz9ch5q We saw the CMCC Warriors in 1980 at DCI East if my memory serves me correct.
@@DennisJohnsonDrummer awesome, I left the corps to join the army then. Gave me focus and something to look forward to as a teenager.
When are you going to tell the stories you mentioned in your “why I joined the United States Marine Corps” video?
Played in a colonial style fife and drum corps in my teens, and to this day the sound of a rope tension drum gets me instantly emotional inside.
I got my first practice pad and drumsticks today just because of you....i know that this comment is off topic but you bring me happiness which is hard for me to have since i play 5 instruments and hopefully 6 (the snare drum once i save enough money for it) but anyways have a good morning and thank you for the content you bring to this community.....!
I got cut from Pacific Crest 3 times and now I'm a Drum Major at Crossmen. Getting cut can be good for you.
The chorus on the word "bunch" @ 0:29 is top tier editing
Expert Village lessons are the key!!
A friend of mine is retiring from the drumming which is why the spot is open
this was such a creative way to talk about rejection and your intro was cool!
Good luck with your auditions in the alternate universe. I'm rooting for you!
It is thundering and lightening and I am sitting under an overhang with music playing from a restaurant so I am playing this video and cannot hear a thing! But I was here ... Very early ... But not first!
I love your videos, Eric. I am a drummer as well. I've been in a marching band for just my Freshman year of high school. Now, I am homeschooled. I just graduated, and I have a drum set in my room. I do cadences, and very crazy drum grooves.
And now you're currently in another audition. 😏😉
😐

@@sordonic9195 I'm talking about AGT. 🤦♂️
I commented thus before watching the video, okay?

AGT! Can't wait to see you on there!
it was kinda funny i started this video and a ad popped up of emc doing a ad for aeroband
Not even a drummer here but there's some fun skills and insight from your channel with an obvious proficiency in music that I find entertaining. Maybe could even be applied to my own music in making my own drum sections better.
Good luck alt-dem EMC!
Alternate dimension Eric at ~ 8:09 is pulsing the doubles as he gets faster. His left hand appears to have a slightly higher stick height when compared to his right. However the drum's striking plane + camera angle may be causing an optical illusion. The pulsing is still there, whether intentional for the prescribed style or not.
I've never been cut... but I have been placed very low in line before. 😂 I guess I need to start trying harder.
Also, AGT did you so dirty!
"Hopefully you've done something in your life up to this point."
Shots fired
1:17 you should put the black rims on either drums 1 and 2 or 3 and 4. My OCD is killing me. Either way, nice vid
the real old guard auditions were the friends we made along the way
LOL I didn't realize that your shirt said baseball but had a picture of a football on it until you mentioned buying a custom tshirt at the end of the video.
Speaking of AGT, are we ever going to get to see those actual performances? Like do they send you tapes of your auditions that you can put on share with us? I'd assume that this would go at the end of the season, but it would be nice to see the amazingness that is chicken man and what looks like drumming-on-everything Eric
super underrated youtuber
Emc make a video about the history of drumline!
It's really all about being in the right place at the right time. You may be a great player with great technique, but you may
not be a good fit for a particular ensemble at that point in time. Some younger players audition too early in their musical
development, which acounts for a lot of "cuts" in the "cut world". I waited until I was ready back in the day until I was a
sophomore in college to audition for D.C.I. (Spirit of Atlanta) Had I auditioned earlier I'm sure I would have gotten the
heave ho from Tom Float because I was not ready to blend with the style he taught. Marching in college alongside guys
who marched in Atlanta gave me an advantage. This was before computers and You Tube, so you would have to learn
the style and exercises from someone in person. (friend-lessons-etc) So there you go. My take on this subject.
* Also, D.C.I. back in the day was not as populated with high school kids because they simply didn't have the skill sets
that many have in the computer age. The only way to emulate great players back in the day was to actually see them
briefly in action on the field at a show or at a rehearsal. There were no videos to speak of and certainly no video
auditions. Young players today really have no excuse for not having the skill sets needed except for a lack of work
ethic, natural talent, and depriving themselves from phone time and the computer screen. Sermon complete.
As you were soldiers.
I wonder how many people watching have no idea why he’s using the scream mask every time he says “cut.” It’s such a niche reference, I love it
Imagine reading sheet music for the extreme quads
Catching up on unwatched EMCproductions videos ... under THIS account! With Ads!!! Earning Eric the big bucks!!!
My drum instructor told me last year(8th grade year) told me I’d never play snare and now after this drum camp he was making me and another kid swap on snare saying that’ll be the drumline come band camp and the 2nd snare moved to tenors and I’m gonna try out for snare at band camp and hopefully I’ll get it and change my drum instructors mind
I just auditioned for the Michigan State University Marching Band on trumpet, I’m still waiting to hear back but I think I have a really good shot!
I'm a bass, bass 1 to be exact, and my school has 4 basses. 1,2,3, and 5. We don't use 4 because it is broken. Basically our 3rd movement had basic bass music (In like the middle before the woodwind feature). Basses 1, 2, and 3 were cut from playing it because we were to "pingy". We were so angry because it was a basic, but good beat.
May the force be with your audition..... im kinda on the same quest, maybe... even though i know my drummer is the right man for tne job :) good luck, good day
I would feel rejected and very upset if I got cut for something I love that I auditioned for that I really wanted to be a member of. I have to be in a few marching bands, jazz bands, rock bands, ensembles, and orchestras.
I got into my schools honor choir in 7th and 8th grade (the only years you could join) then my schools Jazz band 7th and 8th grade (also the only years you could join) then my choir teacher specifically asked me to join the New Jersey all state honor choir in 7th grade. Then I auditioned for the honor choir again and got the 4th highest audition score out of 60 something people. Then I got into my high schools select choir, and select men's choir. Then I got into my high school drumline and Jazz band (which not many freshman did).
This just happened to be during audition like 3 weeks ago
12/28/1998 11:31am Snare tech informs me that I am cut from the corps I was auditioning for in last year of age eligibility. "no dream for you" sucks, but like Eric says, it's part of life.
Goodluck alternate universe emc!
I have noticed that visual ability has become a much more important part of the audition process than back in "my day" which was the 90s and it makes sense. Back then I think they figured if you could play well, they could beat you enough to make you good at the visual stuff which was far less complex than today. If I had to audition based on today's visual standards, they would have laughed me out of the room.
That's a nice Loyal Drums sling! Ngl
Can't wait till you get into the old guard!
I haven't really auditioned for anything, especially since mb and my nearest drum line is no cut. But i did do a seating audition for orchestra. For context, I play both percussion and Viola and in my orchestra there are 9 violas. I did so bad lmao, I was 2nd chair Viola the year before for a time, and 3rd or 4th (of 6th) most of the time. But I got 7th chair.
Good luck, alternate universe Eric! You can do it!
Hey EMCproduction what do you think of front ensemble
How can I send you a percussion video? You have GOT to take a look at this, and it would be awesome if you could do a rendition of it!
I like your videos 👌🏻🥁
I am thinking about auditioning to be in the blue devils drum Corp marching band after I graduate high school. I will feel very debastated (I can’t spell it) if I got cut for that one.
Unrelated, what are head zones like on mega tenors?
What if you just try out for the old guard again just to see how far you make it
Hey Eric, when do the sunset parades start up again at the Marine Corps Memorial? I tried calling the protocol office at the barracks and no one answered.
They already started. 2nd one is tonight
Can you analyze Danny Carey's drumming? I'm curious to see that.
You auditioned 7x and got cut?
Jeez, and I used to feel bad about getting cut from ALLIANCE 3x in a row
10:44 tax dollars lmao
We should make a group called the New Guard! Eric can use his chickens and BBC can lead us all
Goodluck Eric C-137!!
so thats where the us military budget goes, to your multidimensional transport...
I need help with something, its basically 2 sixteenth notes both double stroke , then transfers to another drum, i just need help with those any techniques for only doing it in single hand
I like those traditional string drums. I think they sound better.
Did you ever try out for Blast?
PLEASE let us know when that AGT airs your audition! I smell a EMC AGT “airing party”, with plenty of drinking games…
Hopefully they did NOT vote to “cut” you!!!
They did
I also got cut from the Blue Man Group, twice, so we have that in common
Once for me.
Looks like it's gonna have to be 18 then
Nothing stings worse than getting cut on your rook out year.
10 points for filming the practice pad/plastic bag hack infront of Walmart 👍
Four way coordination
You forgot your Blue Devils audition video
Where can I get one of those basketball shirts!?!

Him: *cut*
Also him: *proceeds to show the face from scream*
I have a theory. What if all of Eric's characters are just a scape goat for him having split personality disorder? 🤣 Just a joke. I have to clarify because I don't wanna take a chance with idiots taking it to heart.
You had to have advanced in the competition unless you do a costume change in the middle 😂
It's the alternate Universe Erics.
What year was he in United percussion
My piano teachers piano teacher was in the blue man group
What year did you march Crown?
Can you channel yourself in the alternate dimension where you upload daily?
I miss Banished Beyond
Eric I've made a horrible mistake. I told my mom about the "Hit it scribe" you were given and now my mom's saying "hit it scribe" randomly.
In all of your cutaways there are not left hand flips, only right. You should change that. Also marching/playing with Gus is fantastic.
What does emc stand for, Eric marine Corp?
His name is Eric Carr. I can only assume M is his middle initial.
stand still for 30 minutes? That's insane
that sounds like good advice for dating as well.
Marine Corps’ gain to have you.
Video 15 of commenting until EMC makes an entire battery percussion section out of spocks and 8 inch splash cymbals

Hello Eric
Glasses clean😎
Never give up.
Unless it's your rook out year and you have no choice but to accept you'll never get a chance to be in that corps ever again.
@@brothaNblue ok
@@replicated what I'm saying is don't wait til your last opportunity to try out for these groups. You'll go the rest of your life thinking your a failure and you'll never be good enough to pursue anything else.
As theatrical as you are how did you get cut from Stomp.
0:47. That statement aged well.
I thought you got cut from the Blue Devils?
