Which exercise was your favorite?
Ur moms 🥴
Russian Twist
What practice pad did you have in the solo video. I'm looking to find a good tenor pad.
I was going to say the exercise in futility, but somehow this audition tape actually worked haha
Figure it out for sure!
Eric: *hits a rim*
Eric: 😳

The way he looks at the camera when he hits rim kills me every time

I ended up making Cavaliers 2010 tenors so thanks for not going 😂😂😂
Jacob Thompson I looked up “Jacob Thompson dci” and I got an iowa sex offender 😐

16:30 little late but here you go Ian
THE WORSE THING was the haircut.
The real crime
The real crime is your spelling.
Dude I'm German and I know that it's worst instead of worse.
@DeutscherSoldat1871 ja, das ist richtig!
@@MegaMech yes that is right
I would've asked for a drug test before accepting you
Why, just wondering...
@@busunit3824 because his chops and playing are absolutely nuts
@@Mr_Gray_1995 ? Can you elaborate?
@@Mr_Gray_1995?
Come on now being a Marine you should understand why it worked. Commanders intent: make a team. Best way is to go to an audition camp, but through the precepts of maneuver warfare you arrived and found a better-way to accomplish that commanders intent and that was by sending out the tape. Mission accomplished.
I'm really happy I stayed until the end. That racecar sound effect on your Razor at the end was the piece de resistance.
You make band geek percussionists proud across the world.
Crown, BD, Bluecoats, and Cavies? Now that’s ambitious.
Ik a guy that sent in a tape and Spirit was like come on down he thought he flunked his live audition and spent some money on other stuff but they were gonna take him but he couldn't afford the fees. RIP Mini W.
seeing Eric send in all his auditions this year makes this video, an actual serious analysis and commentary on audition "do"s and "don't"s, even better
2010 was my favorite year of drum corps! So many incredible shows that year! Congrats on making it. So many super talented students choose not to audition every year because they create excuses or scenarios in their mind of why they shouldn’t go. This is a perfect example of shooting your shot and giving your best effort in your current situation. All students need to remember, there’s always a chance to make the corps you want to be, but there’s never a chance if you don’t try!
My band director was a drum major on phantom regiment in 2010
Man you had/have mad chops! Pretty crazy you marched Crown 2010. I marched SCV Tenors in 2010 I was 17 and the youngest guy in the battery, and I was a big fan of crown tenors that year. Big fan of yours and cool to know we marched the same season
LMAO this tape is fire man idk what you mean, this audition tape is gold. you literally covered all bases
He played tenors, not bases.
Spoonwood what
@@Spoonwood b ruh
@@Spoonwood lol
5:51 sounds like some jig 2 right here
3:03-3:09 cursed emc. Recommend u skip. If you don’t skip you’ll need to [CUT] off the hot water in your shower.
Your audition tape was interesting. I auditioned for SCV wayyyyy back in the "80's. At that time Ralph Hardimon had talked to me on the phone and written a letter. It was my first DCI tryout. I was instructed to make a VHS (old school video) of any and every instrument I could play not to exceed 15 minutes. Needless to say I had no instructions, no direction, no help, and I didn't know anyone that had marched DCI. No internet or UA-cam then either. He was super cool and nice about my audition but told me I needed DCI experience. I marched elsewhere and unfortunately didn't have the funds to march SCV or DCI again. However, I had members I marched with march SCV, BD, Cavies, and Cadets. So, your audition is not so weird just dated. Although I would have loved to know or see Scott Johnson's reaction. Thanks for sharing your videos and insight.
I like him a lot more because he tried out for the cavaliers
When you’re wanking and your door opens but it’s just you’re dog 11:06
I’d stop if it was my dog
I didnt know murr from impractical jokers auditioned for the blue devils god damn
New Sub! Not having a completely perfect tape actually helped you most likely. Sending in a tape with a tik a couple of times when trying to "make it on" is realistic. Someone sending a tape that is absolutely perfect when they trying to impress enough the same I would have to ask myself how many times did they attempt this and re-watch before they had it good enough in their mind to send? Great channel! Your passion and enthusiasm is palpable! Fine job!
Whether people feel like the video should have worked or not, it's no joke being a rookie section leader in a finalist corps! I can't wait for your DCA audition video. I've heard some legendary tales from that era of Bushwackers.
RCC actually uses the first part of “Figure It Out” as a warmup! I doubt it’s called that, but it’s the same thing. Triplets in one hand, 1 e t on the other.
i just found your vids and holy hell box drill brought back memories. i only marched in my high school band, and one particularly muddy day my freshman year i tripped the entire trumpet line during box drill. im small (like less than 5') and when i lost traction and went down in the mud i took everyone with me as they tripped over me. not my proudest moment lol
Love your videos Eric!❤️
Everything you did on drum 1 was nuts. The chops were serious
This video has been up for 20 hours and it has already reached it's like goal.
I'll be honest--I could never march tenors bro 😭
Like I can barely carry a snare for 4 hours, I wouldn't last 1 with tenors. Not to mention that I've gotten far too comfortable with traditional grip, it feels really uncomfortable to use matched grip. I'm really not even that good at snare, I need to learn flammed 16ths and a lot more rudiments. I'll probably be a lot better in a good 5 years, as long as I keep at it.
Great video, by the way! You inspired me to do drumline, and I'm really glad that you're still actively posting!
The glance at the camera every time you hit a rim was awesome.
I played with Scott Johnson once after a Dci show. I think my dad was teaching at phantom regiment that year. I was 10 and i remember tapping him off and everyone around died laughing. I didn't know any better and really had no clue who he was until afterwards.. Gave me his sticks afterwards and told me I'll see you next year right?. Well I Ended up playing trumpet so I never marched drumline unfortunately. I was definitely a prodigy snare drummer when I was that age and younger lol. That same year I met the blue devil center snare and had a similar experience playing with him too. Got another pair of sticks and I actually kept in touch with him for awhile after that through email. Still have both pairs of sticks to this day even though I haven't played in well over a decade. Those memories will always be with me.
U are really Skilled Bro..I played Quads in High School...And u got Skill Bro!!!
If only one group asked to take you and you're this good, I should just give up now.
This video was made 3 years ago today. Happy birthday
It was really goofy.. Well it's good to see you kept things consistent
That’s also some great lighting for your intro tape!
Killer playing- chops always help
No cringe. Thank you for doing what you do.
The “figure it out” reminds me of Billy Rymer for some odd reason
Nice man, btw I had Darick Kelly as an instructor in 07 at the DCA corps I marched that year. That's a name I haven't heard in a few years but he was a good instructor.
25 frustrating minutes later and i can FINALLY play figure it out
So today I was taking to my band director for my independent winds group and we brought you up and he said you guys were both teachers at jersey surf and I was like “no way” I geeked out
YO we had Scott Johnson judge our Winter Regional performance this year
Man, you must rrally love marching drums.
i literally laughed so hard everytime you went 🤨. 😂 i heard the rim and i wus like OH HERE HE GOES.
You are SO extra and it makes me so happy.
dude sick ass transfer from the doubles into single holy crap
I would love to see ScoJo’s reac to your audition tape. Love your channel and content!
Just found this channel, those rim shot stares LOOOOL.
I really like the style in your playing I need to learn how to play like this
Video auditions have definitely become more accessible in recent years.
Almost 150k!
I marched tenors at SCV in 2010 haha crazy coincidence I stumbled on this vid
Dude you had some friggin hands in high school. 👏🏼👏🏼
I think that's actually a GREAT video!
Just found your channel. Gotta love the fact I bet we all cringe with the rims. Haha makes me want to bust out my drum pad.
Why did I feel like I was at a hibachi restaurant the entire time of his solo
Dude honestly this whole time i didnt realize you were THE Eric Carr
I mean he isn't the Eric Carr of Kiss if that's what you mean
My band director (Mr.Greg Neff) marched the cavalires machine in 2006 on tuba.
So I found you by grace of algorithm looking for an audition tape to parody for a recent video and subscribed for the wholesome drum content lmao
Please wear the Shirt from the Video when you rewrite the Solo
You did really good.
Things you did well:
1. You're not me
2. That's all you need to be good
6:07 sounds like a machine gun going off!😂
I miss drum corps and WGI. Some of the best times of my life
Wondering if you have gotten to play under Colonel Bourgeois in the Corps. Fun fact, we got to play under him at a small high-school in Tennessee. Was a phenomenal experience.
Dude that grid at the end was nuts
Press F for all the people that disliked, after attempting "Figure It Out"
Rest in piece
Nothing cringy about this at all, you did great.
Everytime he hits a rim
Eric: 👀
What A Good Job. What A Nut!
Hard work paid off.
I marched Empire Statesmen 04-06, Syracuse Brigadiers 07-09, White Sabers 19.
:) first off you had me at Marine .. but then drummer too .. Semper f'in Fi :)
"I'll give you guys a Sec2nd Chance" I see what you did there
After that 4th close up I had to like the video.... so intense
I'd say that's not bad at all. I went to Colts camp in 2001 as a snare audition. I knew I wasn't going to make it so I tried out on bass...which was the first time I'd ever even touched a bass drum. My little 5 min private audition was awful, but they saw technique potential and taught me how to be good at it, and it worked out great. Soooo, hey, whatever works!
Bet, I wore Vans during my last week of rehearsals and matched without any limitations, the only thing I felt was comfort.
That ending though 🤣gold
I love the 2017 blew devils marching band
Liked during the ad
My first year in Dutch Boy (1993) I didn't even get an audition. Al DiCroce came to my high-school and my band teacher pointed him my way.
1995 Oakland Crusaders, AL DiCroce came calling again.
BUT, 1996 Phantom was the corps I did audition for...sent in an audio recording on a tape(not even a video). Actually got an invite to go to Rockford...
Unfortunately, I had a mother who stopped my summer in its tracks so I could work the summer before going to VaTech... BUT, yes, I have sent in an audition...and no, not as awkward as yours
I know I’m not the only one who was mesmerized by the body of water behind him the entire time 😂
😲 When did it strike you that the four corps you submitted to ended up being the top four that year?!?! What the heck are the Vegas odds on that happening 🤯?!
@EMCProductions Oh man is that the business building at Rowan in the scooter scene? It looks so different
That was crazy!
Let’s get another 👏🏼 for youngerish Eric.
“Sign my Petition so I can marry my cowbell”
Ok imma subscribe.
Can you make a video about your time at Carolina Crown?
The best part of my morning is when Einstein's disembodied head squawks "HERE WE GOOOO!" as it caroms off the bass drum. True story.
That was some good playing, sir, even though the audio was a little off. I enjoyed those double/single transitions
16:32 is the highlight of my life.
Hey there eric!! I was wondering if you could make a video on my high school band on two marches we did the first one being suspicious minds- jacket regiment and Imaginarium- jacket regiment please and thank you if not i understand for suspicious minds we got 8th place at state and imaginarium 5th at state so i was wondering if you could judge it and see what we did wrong and how to improve it best of luck in you future video peace ✌️!
I want that sheet music so bad😂
Me: I’m good I can’t wait for dci
Him:😎😎😎
Me: ahh man I suck
That "Good Afternoon" reveal, though.
Dude I pray every audition round I receive a video like yours lmao.
Do you teach anywhere in DCI/WGI?
