    Ben, you are why i auditioned for drum corps. Your drive and spirit pushed me to audition for the '17 season. Now I'm spending my rookie year with Guardians. Thank you for being an inspiration to young musicians everywhere, you have no clue the huge effect you have on the music world as a whole.

    Revisiting this head cam after three years gives me a special type of sweet and sour fuzz. Downside Up was my introduction to the amazing world of drum corps, especially this video amongst the collection of many others. Hearing the ballad moved me beyond belief. As an eighth grade, I thought that I’d never have the opportunity to march drum corps because I’m a clarinet player. Recently, I joined my first corps as a junior on baritone and looking back at this gave me hope for a bigger future in drum corps. I can’t believe how far I’ve come, and I’d like to give some credit to this. Thank you to all the performers out there that have overtaken me, it has been the utmost pleasure to shape who I am through you

    This is so awesome to watch. I'm 13 and I want to audition for drum corps when I'm older because I have discovered the blue coats. My school lets 8th graders march up in our marching if they are good enough. ( I had to audition.) I was super lucky to have made it in and it lit a flame in my heart. I love to play trumpet, and I practice for hours every day. its practically in my blood, ( my mother, father, and sister all play/d trumpet) and I was always jealous of my sister because she was so good. she was the main soloist at our school and was considered a legend ( she was GOOD.) I was always just seen as her little sister, ( until she quit.) this video has inspired me to be part of the blue coats when I'm older, loved the video your awesome!
    Edit: heyo guys it’s been awhile. Dreams still going good, at the moment I’m seventeen and heading into my senior year. I’m mostly focused on getting into music school at the moment for music education and trumpet performance, but I’m also back in the swing of marching since band is back. (Stupid COVID) my plans to audition are still there but will probably not be put into place untill Next year because I’m just too busy to go to audition for drum core this year and have plans for next summer. Buttttt after next summer when I’ve got into a good collage I’m for sure going to audition. I even have a few friends who want to come along as well. That’s the plan for now. :)

I've not found anything in life yet that compares to crushing like that in front of so many people. The teamwork, the skill, the talent, the hard work, the time, all of it came flooding back to me watching this. Woof, my eyes got wet and it was startling to feel those things again, because as I said I had forgotten lol
    Especially getting to flex and scream like that as we did. The dream of so many trumpet players that only a handful get to experience. Ugh

    I occasionally come back to watch this video, I remember going to a DCI show back in highschool and this show was my first experience to DCI. I really wanted to get bettter and join a DCI band myself, but unfortunately, that dream is long gone. Due to complications of my highschool and other parts of my life, I'll unfortunately never be able to experience the joy and fun of being a part of a DCI level band.
    This video is probably the closest I could ever get to feeling what it's like. 7 years later, thanks for the awesome performance, Ben.

      @Ten O Okay look i wasnt going to be an asshole but if you want to try it pick up a fucking trombone play a Bb in the staff and lip down to a pedal. Theyre both in 1st. Do the same with A. Theyre both in 2nd. Go down chromatically and you'll find G in 4th position. E can be played in 7th but its out of tune and not reliable so a trigger should be used. No one was being rude to you asshole at least learn to play the instrument before fucking with other people over it

      Xeno Player I can barely hit a e‘‘‘. I can only dream of hitting a double c. But I think I am on a good way.
      But don‘t practice too much. I played every day 2 hours until I couldn‘t play any longer.
      I needed one year to get my abilities back. This was terrible. I could barely a g‘‘ at this time.
      But I think you will do good. Just keep smiling and do stuff that motivates you.

    Ben, I know since this is like 7 years old so you probably won't see this, but as a snare player, you have got to be my favorite trumpet of all time, from your opener solo in Tilt to your flugelhorn (i think flugelhorn) solo in the ballad in 2016, it's all just absolutely golden.
    also on a completely unrelated note, nobody talks about how absolutely amazing the part at 12:24 sounds, i have no idea what it's technically called since i'm a snare but it just sounds. SO. GOOD.
