At 5:12 he did his shit he played the hell outta that part. Still watching in 2k21 love this battle. Horsepower some straight bullies lol gotta love it
@cuhstuba00 You can see plenty of other videos of VSU Horsepower but to answer the question VSU is Virginia State University located in Petersburg, VA about 30 minutes from the capital (Richmond). BSU (Bowie State University) is located in Bowie, Maryland.
Can someone who is a sousaphone/tuba player at any college please tell me how do you guys know what to play when playing fanfares. The beginning of this video they where play cords and adding on just how do you know?
it is 3 tuba play 1st part other 3 play 2nd and 1or 2 play harmony and leader just throw in something dat will make it sound good like the dude dat stepped out
Nathan, there are plenty of clips up here of Horsepower battling NSU. VSU has battled Hampton as well and a tone of others. Look for their Honda clips and Labor Day classic clips.
5:20 they actually started playing like they are intended good tone but the bigger group wtf blast everything who cares about sound quality dont make us sound bad....
@Beanz826 Not exactly accurate. VSU did there drumline and the band went into the building. Bowie was further up the street and by the time they marched around to their buses on the other side of the building and finished kicking down, VSU was already in the building changing to leave. BSU blocked up outside and did a few call outs and the rest is on tape...
We tried to make it happen at Honda. We had the lower level banquet area of the hotel set up for it but TnSU left Saturday after Honda so it didn't happen. Maybe next time.
i say both groups were pretty good but id like to VSU attempt to play spook horse power got alot of talent as well as many other tuba sections i'd like to see em battle "LOWDOWN" from HU and "BODACIOUS" from NSU in a 3 way battle that would be interesting
loved the intro nice work and the battle haha they was getting hype. overall both held their own but it would have been even better if vsu let bsu play their whole punch before coming back at them.
@ladycurl2xcel Nooooo Its Not rude To Play Ova The BAnd That Stoped You From Going Home And Called You Out All VSU Did Was Whoop That Ass And Showed Them Who House That Is Thats All!
VSU are some babies they knew they were losing so they started playing while BSU was playing 5:41 thats just plain disrespectful and amateur...its a battle you don't do that.!!!!
HORSEPOWER CRANKED ON THEM AND SHOWED THEM WHAT HAPPEN WHEN YOU TRY TO PLAY THEIR SHIT THATS WHY BSU LEFT AND DIDNT PLAY ANYTHING ELSE BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT THEY LOST
you cant just cut through a SMALLER section nd act like you doin sumn....thats messed up it was fye wen they did it to ASU in the tunnel at Honda that one year cuz THEY were outnumbered...i preferred bowie state
although i luv vsu horse pwer bowie gave them a good run but i say any section that has to play in while another section is playing is either scared to lose or to damn cocky
Ive seen many clips of vsu and i think that they could have done better.i am a very big fan of vsu but this time they lost. I think they could have did better but didn't attempt to cuz they already have that mind set that everybody knows that they would win.
bsu was in um cant lie vsu is the tubas to beat but that pink panther or watever im only in 7th grade idk all the fanfares so exsuese me but im form kentucky so im all about kentucky state university
Damn this is one of the reasons why i wanna join horsepower.
@5:20 the greatest moment in tuba history
2:14 Some dude said "Is someone gonna play somethin besides B flat?" Those are F's tf.
At 5:12 he did his shit he played the hell outta that part. Still watching in 2k21 love this battle. Horsepower some straight bullies lol gotta love it
i Know the numbers are low this year but i would like to know when you will post some more videos?
@cuhstuba00 You can see plenty of other videos of VSU Horsepower but to answer the question VSU is Virginia State University located in Petersburg, VA about 30 minutes from the capital (Richmond). BSU (Bowie State University) is located in Bowie, Maryland.
bsu got this one. sounds like vsu was mad and wanted to blow over bsu. vsu had numbers but they got beat. that shit @ 5.05 was dope.
They sound like a bunch of broken kazoos 😂😂😂
Best tuba battle on UA-cam!
So hey yea im new to these guys. I was wondering where VSU and BSU are actually located.
What's the name of the solo at 5:05
Good job BSU. That was a fun night...maybe next time we'll open the book..lls
5:05 which song do they play there? It sounds great
Habanera
i can say that im impressed i checked the clips and im impressed with the sound
@jesseplata Habanera from Carmen by Bizet
Gentlemen do u have any idea of the name of that fanfare bowie played at 5:07
from what i was told bowie waited tell hp went in the building and then tried to call them out
@cuhstuba00 Yes, BSU is still in full uniform. VSU was half dressed on their way home when they came back out to battle.
Can someone who is a sousaphone/tuba player at any college please tell me how do you guys know what to play when playing fanfares. The beginning of this video they where play cords and adding on just how do you know?
section rehearsal and he tell us what we finna play
but it seems like its just mixed
it is 3 tuba play 1st part other 3 play 2nd and 1or 2 play harmony and leader just throw in something dat will make it sound good like the dude dat stepped out
o ok
yea
what the hell is up with the beggining of this video?!?!?!?!?!
go watch the movie called warriors -__-
For the record the piece at 5:12 is called "Habanera" not Carmen
Does anybody know what the solo at 3:55 is?
You a fool for that intro
Nathan, there are plenty of clips up here of Horsepower battling NSU. VSU has battled Hampton as well and a tone of others. Look for their Honda clips and Labor Day classic clips.
I miss the old horsepower but good job to both section props to Bowie state though
5:20 they actually started playing like they are intended good tone but the bigger group wtf blast everything who cares about sound quality dont make us sound bad....
I love me some horsepower, but BSU wasn't backing down. This was a much better battle between them. Go Horsepower!!!
Parris is the name of that run at 3:10 and is it all 1 3 and 5 cords?
the category in the description!
Not sure who they are …. But the smaller section ;;;;murdered the larger one. crisp, clear …lots of melodies!!.. baller!!!
Just a sousaphone workshop is what this is man!! BSU impressed me at 5:11 but VSU had it the whole time
my mans MIKE killed the carmon solo LOL!!
@Beanz826 Not exactly accurate. VSU did there drumline and the band went into the building. Bowie was further up the street and by the time they marched around to their buses on the other side of the building and finished kicking down, VSU was already in the building changing to leave. BSU blocked up outside and did a few call outs and the rest is on tape...
Yes, it was a night game and both bands marched back to the band room.
aite cool ill check yall out
Not sure. Probably won't see them again until the championship game. No telling.
question how many of yall are there on that section ?
Well DAMN!
What's the song that starts at 6:25
So this is how sousaphones communicate
Whta's that called at 3:27???? PLease Reply
U just gota love da hypeness.. #sousa world shawwttyyy
VSU Horsepower at its best. Bowie St DAMN.
you guys got alot of talent i like the sound that y'all crank out id like to see yall take on NSU and Hampton University or maybe MBU
anyone who says BSU won this should be tested. VSU did them in with ease.
What is the name of the song at 5:10-ish.
God damn I would love the score to that tuba solo, does anyone have it or figured it out?
Horsepower!!!
too coooool
WOW
Next time try having same number of tuba players
ramadan castillo size don't matter
Wats the solo at 5:12?
@Qminor7 that waz the point of the battle to crank over the other section - _ -
just to be sure BSU are the ones fully dressed right? i dont have a good enough quality on my phone to tell the difference.
Horsepower!
We tried to make it happen at Honda. We had the lower level banquet area of the hotel set up for it but TnSU left Saturday after Honda so it didn't happen. Maybe next time.
i say both groups were pretty good but id like to VSU attempt to play spook horse power got alot of talent as well as many other tuba sections i'd like to see em battle "LOWDOWN" from HU and "BODACIOUS" from NSU in a 3 way battle that would be interesting
loved the intro nice work and the battle haha they was getting hype. overall both held their own but it would have been even better if vsu let bsu play their whole punch before coming back at them.
It almost happened the previous year but Tenn St. went home right after Honda.
To be honest Bowie state won this battle, but V-State was very rude and disrespectful when Bowie state was playing something really nice.
At 5:05 bsu took the win. Vsu tubas get down but they lost this one.
Bowie came a long damn way.... and they were entertaining... hell i'll give em a W just for that lol
but hole time this was a good battle, but whole time tho
wish VSU woulda played more fanfares tho!!
Whaddaya bet all these 11 dislikes are band directors?
vsu showed up half dress vsu said fvck that shit vsu killed they ass
I'd love to see VSU vs TnSU.
@ladycurl2xcel Nooooo Its Not rude To Play Ova The BAnd That Stoped You From Going Home And Called You Out All VSU Did Was Whoop That Ass And Showed Them Who House That Is Thats All!
VSU averages between 14-16 depending on band size and miliary/work schedule during the season.
I cant get enough of this video! I love how disrespect horsepower is!
idk, i'd make a strong case for TSU knowing how to play it.
VSU are some babies they knew they were losing so they started playing while BSU was playing 5:41 thats just plain disrespectful and amateur...its a battle you don't do that.!!!!
They lost why was they so hype at the end!?!?
That dude killed Carmen tho!
somebody was cruisin for a bruising lol
damn look like 30 of yall
HORSEPOWER CRANKED ON THEM AND SHOWED THEM WHAT HAPPEN WHEN YOU TRY TO PLAY THEIR SHIT THATS WHY BSU LEFT AND DIDNT PLAY ANYTHING ELSE BECAUSE THEY KNOW THAT THEY LOST
1:53 "that's a whole new group"
@Pooty21 HUH?!?!?!?!?
Vsu lost no versatility all Power That power gets boring every fanfare play me a song or something
you cant just cut through a SMALLER section nd act like you doin sumn....thats messed up it was fye wen they did it to ASU in the tunnel at Honda that one year cuz THEY were outnumbered...i preferred bowie state
The beginning killed me. Him talking over the clip lmao.
wheeeww dat thang crank @3:11
still sound good though
Who was vsu?
v.s.u. got it but it was a hot battle
bowie has heart love it
wow what up with that camera man he freak out there
Press 6.
although i luv vsu horse pwer bowie gave them a good run but i say any section that has to play in while another section is playing is either scared to lose or to damn cocky
BSU Had Better Fanfares But There Tone Is Off . VSU Had Better Tone, Thats All .
I just feel like if y'all gon call them out knowing what you were up against, you should've came better prepared. Horsepower gets the W again...
I love the Intro!
dis wont da right time to try to go through yo whole set list of songs...just crank dats it
If there's anyone that knows how to play 'Deebo', it'd be VSU
5:06 best fanfare ever i swear! Vsu killed by hittin that deebo during the fanfare! >:/
???
Ive seen many clips of vsu and i think that they could have done better.i am a very big fan of vsu but this time they lost. I think they could have did better but didn't attempt to cuz they already have that mind set that everybody knows that they would win.
bsu was in um cant lie vsu is the tubas to beat but that pink panther or watever im only in 7th grade idk all the fanfares so exsuese me but im form kentucky so im all about kentucky state university
5:12 I had an organism
bowie went in
VSU is the group that came out the band building in shorts and band tops off.
Bowie was still in full uniform.
