I cannot tell you how much the members of this community both from regular marching bands and the drum corps Community appreciate this. There is a stigma that people who do this are simply nerds or geeks. However all forms of music stem from its most simplest form which is instrumental. Thank you so much for showcasing this and I hope that you enjoy the show! My favorite Corps is Carolina Crown. Should react to their 2013 show. They won gold with it.
DCI alumni here. 100% a simple nerd/geek. I don't appreciate you trying to break our stigma and stereotypes.
Drum corp kept us off the streets in the 70’s. Good times.
bro thank you for this!! and basically you audition for groups you want to be in and they pick the best out of the hundreds that try out for one group. it cost's thousands of dollars to march in a group and they practice all summer all day long to get ready to compete against the other groups. they also travel all over the country performing and competing. it's definitely very tough and takes lots of practice and dedication to do this activity. i look foward to your in person reaction to how loud and beautiful it sounds when they're in front of you. i recommend reacting to Santa Clara Vanguard 2018 "Babylon"
I think it’s really cool to see people who aren’t from the band community reacting to stuff like this. When you go to a show you should go check out the warm up area for all the drum corps while you’re there. That’s called “the lot”. You get to see everything the corps plays on the field and more plus it’s a much more intimate environment where you can hear all the music and see the performers right up close. Most people from outside the activity that go to support don’t know about the lot but it’s a super fun experience I personally wouldn’t wanna miss out on. The lot is always where I’ll be posted at when DCI comes to town!
Well I gotta give credit when credit is due. And I have tried playing multiple instruments and some I can pick up. But most are pretty hard for me to wrap my head around
It’s the wall of sound you hear live. It literally melts your face
I can’t wait
@@shakashinereacts my first experience with DCI was seeing the finals live when I was a kid and it pretty much solidified my proud band dork status. 🤣🤣🤣
You’re going to LOVE IT - Trusssss
Couple more days to go. Hopefully i can edit the videos quickly so all of you can see it!
To answer your question, they practice all summer long, for like 12 hours or more per day. They select people who are already good (from high school or college), so they have a strong baseline to work with. Each group is different, but you show up to their camp, play for the director (possibly a section leader) and they decide if you are good enough to join. They are constantly looking for new talent because the rules are that people age-out at 21. You can not be part of DCI once you are over 21.
You get bonus year if your birthday is during tour.
@@brothaNblue so if you turn 22 during like, July, you get to March the next year? or that means that current year would be the ageout
@@squillz8310 My birthday is in July. The rule is the last part you said. Instead of being 21 when you age out, you would be 22.
WAIT was it always 21???? I thought the age out was 24…. Fuck that means I lost my chance to join DCI 😩🥹 I’m currently 21 and moved to Asia was hoping before 24 I’ll be back someday to at least do one year but if it’s 21 then I’m screwed. Unless I fly back to the States before auditions this year.
Yes of course there’s always DCA but still DCI is a whole different level! Do you happen to know the age out for WGI?? Do they have open age programs by chance??
@@ZeraKonno There is another association called the DCA, which doesn't have an age-out limit.
I am a former show promoter and was certified as a visual judge back in 2003 (no longer active).
I can tell you that most of the staff I've interacted with say that for each minute of show on the field, each member of the corps will spend *100 hours* in rehearsal time over the course of the entire marching season.
Multiply that by a max corps size of 165 and that's an awful lot of hours spent out in the summer sun to make these shows exceptional.
(And, for me, it's a tie -- I saw the 2002 performance of the Cavaliers live at finals, and it was amazing! But, also partial to Phantom Regiment 2003 as they did a re-make of that last year and it was so filled with emotion it was hard to not love it every time I hear it).
Well thank you for your insights. Seems like you have you a lil more look behind the scenes then most people do.
you were certified as a visual judge in 2003?
what is your favorite show you judged (if any)?
@@macerunner4674 2003, so it would be "Harmonic Journey" by Phantom and "Spin Cycle" by Cavaliers. (To be fair, I was judging in the old DCM circuit... so didn't get a chance to see the East or West coast corps during my trial judging.)
Never actually went on to judge a DCI show (outside of the trial judging I did, which was about 6 shows and the DCM championships in Dekalb, IL), but did a high school show or two in the years following and enjoy it thoroughly! :)
Bro! U can’t beat Cavies 2002! Ur favorite was spot on! That was pure poetry in motion! And it was all original music… Which is such a rarity!
Green machine
You need to do some individual shows, man!! Do Carolina Crown 2009, 2012, and 2013. And take a listen to that hornline practice!!!!!
They probably practice on average 6-10 hours a day pretty much 7 days a week for months. Going to a corps practice really lets you know how much efforts goes into these shows
Thank you!
@@shakashinereacts what show are you going to out of curiosity?
Im going to the Boise show
I am standing about 20 feet away from the soloist in the first corps... this was one of the best moments isn my life.....
Hey man! Former member here (Crown and Boston Crusaders)
Everyone here pretty much basically hit the nail on the head. You audition for whichever group you want to be in and most of the time they are in their respective home states. Just to give you my personal example I live in Miami, but every month I would have to drive to Fort Mill South Carolina because flying was too expensive and every month in the winter from November to April do you have a time were you meet one weekend out of the month each month, essentially like a 6 month audition process where they judge you not only on how well you play/move but how you are as a person and human etc then around May 19 you drop your real life and go to Spring Training which is a months length about (May 19 - June 20th.). To answer another question homie, In that month for me when i Marched it was
7am-8am Wake/Breakfast
8-12pm Block 1 usually visual mo music
12-1 Lunch
1-5 Block 2 music with some visual
5-6 Dinner
6-10 Everyone comes together that night for “Ensemble”
You get the occasional free day obviously here and there and a free block off one night sometimes but it’s about 12 hour rehearsal days. Then June 21st to Aug8-11 you spend some days rehearsing but a lot of days you end at 2-3 pm to get ready for shows because you tour the east or west coast depending on where you audition , and then there’s Regionals where all 25+ world class groups meet and compete.
There’s so much i didn’t cover because i was rapid typing this before work, but super glad i stumbled upon your channel this morning! I HIGHLY recommend for anyone new to dci:
2008 Phantom Regiment
2011 Carolina Crown
2014 Bluecoats
2016 Crown (one of my years so slight bias haha) but I’m here for anything else you drop dci wise!
My wife marched with crossman back in i think 2015 or 2016! It was between her junior year and senior year of highschool. Absolutely insane what they go through to do this. I remember all her horror stories and stuff about training every day. She still actually has some health issues with her hips and knees because of it.
Drum corps meet one weekend a month November-April, then move in for intense spring training to learn show May-beginning of June. Hit the road and tour the USA a different show and city every night performing and perfecting the show. Wake up at 8am, rehearse all day and do show in that city that night, then load up and head to next city. Ends with World championships in August. There is World class and open class divisions. My favorites are The Cavaliers, Blue Devils, Carolina Crown, Santa Clara Vanguard and Phantom Regiments.
No 1 show of alltime in my opinion is Phantom Regiments 2008 Spartacus. That show was electric.
This years tour just started this week!!
Dude! You're going to vlog a trip to a live DCI show? Count me in. That sounds like fun!
I was definitely thinking about it
@@shakashinereacts it's a great idea. It's *200%* worth the money to get really good seats. As close to the 50 yardline as possible, and higher up in the stands. That way you feel the power of the brass, and see all of the overall visuals
@@shakashinereacts if you’ve never been to a drum corps show live it’s something you must experience. Videos don’t capture the raw sound these corps produce. You will be blown away by this sound in person.
You have a new subscriber my friend as the DCI World welcomes new fans and I am sure you have seen a lot of new subscribers. It looks like a lot of people answered your questions already but I want to say welcome to the journey as the marching arts has so much to offer. I am an alum of The Cavaliers which you picked as your favorite so 👍
If you want to see how much DCI has changed since the years in this video. Look up Bluecoats Garden of Love. They're the same corps as the last blue and black corps in this video lol.
Saw all but the first and last in person: Cavaliers were the best, but both Phantom shows had ridiculous amounts of emotion, and Madison was just _fire_ in person.
Cavvies were pretty amazing though, ngl, I was gobsmacked at the time. =D
The second one (‘88 Scouts) is what got me to march DCI. I was in high school 1992 when I first heard that recording.
If you want to know how long they would practice for this, try outs usually start mid-autumn and then ramp up full swing every day getting up at the crack of dawn and ending after the sun goes down around May-June.
Thanks for posting this! I marched in 1975 and 1976 with a corps called Guardsman, from the northwest suburbs of Chicago. The others who posted explained correctly about the hard work and practices. Loved them all. My corps folded many years ago. My favorite corps (also from Illinois) is Phantom Regiment. 5:46 and 11:30. 5:46 is Dvorak's New World Symphony. 2nd place but me and many others thought they should have placed first. A much loved move at the end of each segment is the tight wedge formation with leg kick out. Thanks again!
Watch Blue Devils’ “House is not a Home” from their 2011 show. One of my favorite moments.
Tryouts usually start around thanksgiving and will have rehearsals every month till around Memorial Day, then they will practice every day for a month till the tour starts around the middle to late June.
I love how your eyes SMILE while watching this! The same happens to me!!
And we practice for about 12 hours a day from end of may to middle of august
I never had a chance to go dci but did Comp marching in high school which is molded from dci we practiced all summer long and about 20hrs per week during the season
I'm with you. I liked the Cavaliers the best because of their energy.
Hey, there. Thank you for doing these. Even though these are just snippets/samples of the approximately 12 minute shows they do represent an evolution in years of DCI (Drum Corps Internation). Whoever created this had some sort of bias because this video included only Midwestern corps. I marched in a small Midwestern corps in the early to mid 1990s. I was a 5 time horn captain, 1st trumpet (back in those days they were called soprano and it was in the key of G instead of concert B-flat) and soloist. We practiced between 4 to 6 hours on everything like music, drill, marching, ensemble work, movement. The big corps could practice up to 10 or so hours if necessary. Here it is 30 plus years later and the evolutionary difference is tempo, movement, athleticism, dance, drill, professionalism and more!! The level of sophistication is crazy these days!! Things are not so much rooted in straight lines any more. It is about curves and certain formations. You have to have sophisticated and dedicated, talented staff that will train your participants relentlessly. They are less taskmasters than back in the day. You are expected to learn the music before getting to camp a lot of times AND memorize that. We used to use 2 valve and valve and rotary horns. Now they are all 3 valve b-flat horns. This changed in the year 2000. So I marched in a different era. The greatest corps in the Midwest are Madison Scouts (you saw them 2nd 2-time DCI champion), Phantom Regiment (3rd and 5th 2-time DCI champion), The Cavaliers (4th 7-time DCI champions), The Bluecoats (6th and 1 DCI championship), The Blue Stars (no championships yet). The Star of Indiana left competition in 1993, but they won in 1991 and lost in 1993 by .1 of a point in the finals!!!!! The next year they were gone from competition. Drum corps changed my life. This is the 50th anniversary of DCI. I will never forget what it gave to me.
Yep. Back in the day I was a lead soprano on the Crossmen. You're right... 2 valve key of G bugles. I auditioned live and had never held a 2 valve instrument before then. But I was a jazz player and recognized I could improvise in the key of G with 2 valves when they asked me to riff for them (director and drill sergeant). It worked out well and they placed me as lead. It was pretty cool.
@@PixelPro-4000 What years did you play?
@@veot.2869 Only one year, 87.
@@veot.2869 It was the first year the Crossmen made the finals at DCI.
@@PixelPro-4000 The first year I saw the Crossmen was on a VHS tape from '88 or '89, a year or two after yours. My years were '90 through '94. Sorry it took so long!! Didn't know about the reply!!!
All those shows were over 25 years ago. You should see DCI today!
There is an audition process. It's not necessarily easy to get in, but if you put in the time and the work to get in, you can. I struggled with it because I had never played Mellophone before and I did not understand it at all until it was too late.
5:03 All the most talented, diehard band nerds in the high schools and colleges know about Drum Corps International. It's our Olympics. (21 and younger)
CHILLS!!!
You have to audition into dci and it's very competitive. Some corps actually most of the top ones only take people with corp experience. So usually you start in a minor corp and then you're last year or two you go to a big one. Also there's a 22 yr age limit
As a point of reminder to all reacting to or watching this, ALL of these musicians are 14 to 21 years old!!
Also please react to Phantom Regiment Spartacus!
11:15 this show is tied for being the second highest ever. A score of 99.150!!!!
In competition, each group starts off with a score of 100 points. Each time they make a mistake (out of step, bad spacing interval, etc.) they get deducted points. They are judged for marching, music, and color guard. In this video you see those random guys walking around on the field. Those are field judges taking note of any mistakes they find. But it's up to them to get out of the way. If they are in your way during a move, you get penalized for actually breaking formation to avoid hitting them! That's right, you are supposed to stay in formation even if it means knocking a judge to the ground.
The only group in this video that was judged under the "Tic" system that you descibe is the 1st corps, 1978 North Star. That was changed when DCI went to a Build Up Judging System in 1984. Since then Judge score the corps based on what and how they perform placing them in score range of 1-5 boxes of achievement.
I thought they were using tics. Thanks for clarifying!
Ok...to clarify...judging is out of 100 however, it is divided into 3 main groups; general effect accounts for 40%, visual accounts for 30% and music accounts for 30%. General effect is how the show mixes visuals and music together. It's a bit subjective but normally the top 3 are easy to pick out. Visual is what the word says; how the show looks as well as how it is technically performed. Spacing intervals, shapes, forms, use of non human visuals, etc. Also, colorgaurd is in this category and is the biggest mover, score wise. Music consists of brass, it's difficulty, execution, composition, etc. Music also includes percussion and the battery unit. If you go back and look at the 2019 score sheet you will see how it is done. The unfortunate thing is the scoring also has a ranking which can affect things a lot.
Honestly, enjoy the shows. Don't get too connected to scores. You may like a show cause of its emotion and how the crowd reacts with you. Then when scores come down, that show may not even crack the top 5. Scores are subjective, the shows are personal for the viewer. Have fun bro!
Could you please react to 2nd Most Popular Song Each Month in the 60s?
I will try to fit that in. 👌
Theres a really good video up on youtube called "What is DCI?" by Grant Miller and i think you'd really enjoy it, it should answer a lot of your questions. Hope this helps!
2011 Blue Coats is one of the tightest and best sounding shows of all time, however, Santa Clara Vanguard and ‘Cadets are always favorites. However Phantom Regiment will alway be my favorite
Check out 2018 Blue Coats "Suzie"
Former DCI, WGI and USMC Percussion Section Leader here....
Great reaction!
How long do they rehearse? Starting in May all the way through early/mid August, the answers is YES.
I have a few great ones you would love and we would love for you to react to. How do we request?
Watch Carolina Crown 2015 "Inferno." I promise you WILL NOT be dissappointed!
Could you do a reaction to 2012 Carolina Crown's "For The Common Good", idk how they can play while moving the way they do in this show
How do we request you to react to a dci video? Where is link?
The only shows that are taken down are I believe 2013 and newer or around there, you shouldn’t have to worry about anything before that.
You should react to the God’s Hornline Video (Carolina Crown)
Yes I’d love to see u go to a show live! Bluecoats just performed at there first contest of the season a few days ago it’s a cool show but my favorite is Bluecoats 2015
How much DCI members practice: 12+ hours per day 7 days a week for 4 months or so
It varies from Corps to Corps but that's about the average
Kind of a funny compilation! Why these six, particularly?
They have tryout camps
you should definitely react to more recent shows , they have gotten crazy good! Check out basicaly and show that was at finals in 2014 - 2018
Me too! Gives me chills everytime. Although Spartacus was my roommate for years so I'm probably a bit biased 🤣
Hey, can you react to bluecoats 2016? (My name is Lee if you want credit)
Things have changed a lot. There used to be smaller corps where they taught you everything. Unfortunately, most of them are no longer around. Seems like a lot of people have answered your questions so I won't repeat, just wanted to add that little tidbit of info. What show are you going to?
It’s not like this anymore tho.
Those were actual bugles too!!!!!!!! the hornkine had to be dummed down to play trumpets
