T'was a blast. Thanks for checking us out!
Love you guys🥺
This is my favorite of your guys' shows - y'all are amazing and I'm looking forward to your 2021 show!
The go pros are an awesome idea for a different angle on a show!!!!
Woah the blue devils actually commented
So the story behind this:
At DCI finals everyone is competing for first place, then the scores are announced, then whoever gets first place gets to perform their show again, hence the "victory run". That's why they are all wearing gopros and theres a film crew on the field since they arent being judged for this.
I love this camera view because it really helps you understand that each player down there is a person in a world of their own just living their life.
The age out show for BD snare legend Brandon Olander....so nice to see his full potential after he hung with the BD snare line on show music as 12 years old!
It’s been really nice to watch him over the years
Brandon is an absolute 🐐
@@amichaelnorden9835 Dude, Bryce is the GOAT. That dude has never messed up. Never a twitch. Never a dropped stick. Nothing. He's a cyborg. Brandon is a nice top 5.
@@Allison_Chaynes credit where credit is due, but at the same time, people always say "isn't that the dud who played with BD at 12?" whenever Brandon's name comes up, it's something about the recognition to his name that gets him the edge IMO over bryce
when was his first show? 2010?
This show beat Bluecoats by .083 points, one of the closest ending scores in DCI. Both performances were amazing in the end.
2008
Blue Devils: 98.100
Phantom: 98.125
another crazy one too
@@dylancouch7286 wasn't there also a year where the Blue Devils and Phantom Regiment tied?
@@benjaminli188 yes. there was also a year scv and bd tied
Funny moments
Me personally I thought bluecoats should’ve won
I performed in this! It was so great to see someone reacting to it to the first time again 🥺 it was definitely so much fun to be apart of that group and it felt like I was watching it for the first time with you 💙
So glad you enjoyed it 💙💙
what instrument?
@@mang058 mellophone! 😊
@@andrewguillen3684 so you got to do that amazing brassy wail at the end there! Got to see you guys live that year and I still get chills from that finale!
This show is called 'Ghostlight,' which is a small light left on the stages of theaters overnight, while the theater is empty and unoccupied. Practically speaking, it's meant to be a safety precaution in case anyone were working overnight, but there are many stories as to why this tradition exists. It is said that every theater has its share of spirits, and that the ghostlight lets them see on stage, allowing them to dance, sing, perform.
My point is: I hope drum corps finds its way back to the stage, when the time is right. Until then, thanks for helping us keep the light on!
Yeah, something like blast needs to happen again.
Sean Chen is the Violin player. He went to high school in the same town as me and I met him once. I think he's only 19. Freaking prodigy.
Quinten Moshy If you ever see him again, let him know he is a freaking God and us mere mortals are not worthy of him.
@@gunner-qf9eh cringe
@@malditobandito98 Thank you. God bless and enjoy your weekend.
p.s. he was only 18 during the summer :)
Specifically for Christmas- make sure to check out the Cadets 2012: 12.25.
I second this request.
I third this
I fourth this
I fifth this
I sixth this
Thanks for watching this! Maybe next time we should react to a show together 👀
Imagine that banger of a video
I am still waiting for this
Ive been waiting for this one. I saw this live in San Antonio and yoooooo this was an amazing showww. (Also Sean Parra cameo at 0:49 😂)
this was one of my favorite BD shows in a while. If someone can find a Cadets 12.25 full show it'd make a great show to watch just before the holidays :)
I am a traditionalist, usually when it comes to DCI (marched in early '90's), however, THIS was one of the most incredible shows I have ever seen!
2019 was amazing for dci, so many amazing shows in one season.
I'm so glad that I got to see this show live, it was my introduction into DCI as a freshman and I've been obsessed ever since.
I'm a grown man of 58 years and I get all emotional at every drum corps show to this day. I wanted to march snare so bad I swear I could feel actual physical pain in my chest. In my rural town there was absolutely no opportunity to learn how back in those pre-internet days.
Amazing pride, musicianship, guard. Just fills you with awe with what these wonderful young people can accomplish. BRAVO!!!!
Quick explanation of the brass section in these DCI groups. Traditionally the trumpets sit at the highest voice, The Blue Devils are known for their insane trumpet players, my band director used to march for them. They are the ones hitting the screaming notes, followed by the mellophones which are essentially a marching instrument in the same voice as a French horn. Then there are the baritones and euphoniums which have the same voice as a trombone. Finally the large shoulder mounted horns are Contras or Contrabass Tubas. The wrap-around horn that was used was a sousaphone, also in the voicing of a tuba.
AHH YESS I saw this live up front 🥺❤️
I have never liked a reaction channel so much. Been subbed for a few months now 🤘🏼 love the content
The person screaming in the beginning is one of my visual instructors kevin teak. him and another member were two people i looked up too when i wanted to join dci, sadly my marching days are over and im now in college football
The blue Devils are amazing!!! They are what my band director showed us when we were first getting started. It was super impressive and while I don't think we are quite to their level it certainly helped make us want to try a lot harder to get to that level.
Of course the one year I'm not able to go in person, this show and so many other great ones are performed! I only got to see their prelims run during the cinema show, and I was absolutely blown away by them!
Seeing this live gave me a whole new perspective in dci. Completely deserved to win.
This has to be the most fun shes had reacting to one of these. Makes me happy
6:19 It's a sousaphone, commonly mistaken for a tuba, but has different characteristics. Warning, don't go down this rabbit hole exploring. You might get tangled up in all the different types of tubas and how they came about. Sousaphone, helicon, saxhorn, euphoniums, bass tuba, contrabass tuba, the monstrous subcontrabass tuba....it becomes a mess.
Sousa’s are not very fun to march or play in at all I can’t stand them. I come back from a summer of Drum Corps then have to play the Sousa instead of contras. Sorry for that rant I just felt the need to express my hate for them
@@Justincredible24 they hurt but they do help make you appreciate the finer things in life after you get up experience that abusive relationship
Its so nice to see my teachers and people ive met in the show.
Blue Devils are local to me and they're just fantastic. I mostly interacted with their Winterguard team in the early-mid 90's when I was in high school. Them and San Jose Raiders (also near me, but a little further south) would often go back and forth between winning their division in the WGI championships in Dayton, OH back then. Sadly, it's hard to find any of the 90's performances on UA-cam. There's one video of the Raiders' awesome Good Morning Vietnam routine, but the video quality is so bad you can't hardly see anything. Man, being part of the colorguard (rifle line specifically) gave me such great memories.
I see blue devils, I leave a like 😈
One of the best BD shows, I was there Live!!
Same!!!
Is it me or was the screamer part at the end off a bit?
@@tredaviousbowser7931 It's possible. But since this was their victory run (not scored) and they was just having fun and letting loose for the final time, it's excused lol.
@@tredaviousbowser7931 his chops were very blown off considering he had already played a bunch that day
You are going to have so much fun at Finals! This was one of my favorite live performances to watch. Especially the slow section! #DOITUPDEVILS
Blue Devils design staff knocked it for six (cricket reference for you Courtney) with this show! The show was based around the theatre and the tradition of leaving a light on all the time to assuage the spirits of the theatre... the "Ghostlight" hence the name. I absolutely adore this show.
I am glad someone exposed you to BD music, I have been a fan since I was in HS back in the 90's, and got to see them perform when I was still a kid. They have always been of trhe highest quality and I look forward to seeing their latest performances with you!
I saw them in person and took my wife to her first drum corps show. Oh were the tears flowing 😢 She is from the UK, so this was a first for her. I am an old guy and used to March against them in the 1980s and they were as great then as they were great now minus violins, guitars, and sound systems. I personally know all of the work that goes into a 14 minute show. It's months of work and selecting the best talent to make such a unbelievable show. I love your videos.
Hats off to not only the BD band but to the entire Arts Department.
Remember Courtney, these are kids. VERY DRIVEN, and DEDICATED!
when u get a chance, 97 Blue Devils is AMAZING!!
Yes!!! Im so glad you reacted to this!!! 😃😃
another kiwi here! I’m finishing up college/high school here in the us, being in marching band was so rewarding :)
How in the world did I MISS THIS!! Yes!!
Yoooo, I'm gonna audition in '22!!!
Pettition for Courtney to react to the funliner podcast or drum corps Af
only if you make a video of you reacting to her reacting to other people's reactions.
@@phobass bet
This is a more entertaining performance than their actual Finals run
I'm gonna toss in Cavaliers 2006 and Blue Devils 2008 as recommendations
The cadets 2011 behind the scenes video gets me teary eyed every time! Great recommendation
the feature at 4:04 gives me chills TWICE every time I hear it...
Your reactions made my day!
High notes were from the Trumpet. Trumpet players that play that high and like that are called Screamers
The only thing more exiting than seeing a show irl is seeing someone not involved in the activity be exited to watch a show
Bluecoats 2018 that's a show that you would love
facts
@@-5249 that ballad and the finale is just a beautiful ending to a great show.
Hi Courtney! Loved the 1995 Madison Scouts and 1989 Santa Clara Vanguard shows! However, I think the most heartachingly beautiful show (from a corps I hate, by the way), is the Garfield Cadets' 1987 show, "Appalachian Spring." They incorporated their retreat (exit from the field) within the show, which was super-original. If you were touched by Vanguard's "Phantom of the Opera," you'll absolutely break down watching Cadets' 1987 "Appalachian Spring!"
I wonder how many GoPros they had to use to shoot this. Editing this must have taken a while!! That "huge instrument" is called a Sousaphone. It's basically a marching Tuba. They wrap around the player's body so they are easier to carry and actually aren't as heavy as they look. Most high school and college marching bands use them instead of tubas, but DCI usually doesn't, so it's unusual to see one in one of these shows. And add the violin and you've got an interesting combination.
This one was wild CC..wow! great reaction girl..keep em' comin...Kent in Ohio
If that ending doesn't give you chills every time, I don't know what will
You should check out the Old Guard fife and drum corps. Almost all of those guys in there drumline did dci and they had a guy that did dci at 14 years old
There’s an old phantom performance of swan lake that always takes my breath away,
Ove to see her react to it
Courtney, I have been to several and there are now words for the excitement from everyone and music is just fantastic! Hope the virous goes away and they start the events by the time you come! Be well and be safe.
Mike1
So I was looking at Jackson State videos, and I came through your channel, I think you should react to Skyline Raider Band as there recent members in past 4 years have Blown up recently. Nice Videos too by the way. It’s good to see other people from other countries see some of the things The U.S has in show specifically the bands
You need to attend a live DCI Finals. It will knock your socks off!!! Great reaction videos!
I went 2017 and it was AMAZING🤩
I loved this reaction!!! I recommend Bluecoats 2015 too!
Nobody throws it down quite like the Devils. My favorite corps for 25 years.
I have been waiting months for this video
You should totally react to Phantom Regiment 2003 (Harmonic Journey). They have so many good shows (1996, 2003, 2007, 2008, and 2011 to name a few) but the closer of 2003 sets it apart. Arguably one the of the best shows ever musically imo.
Just an FYI:
Usually, the hype isn't as vocal as it is in that video, because it isn't considered professional. However, this is a victory run, meaning that the Blue Devils already won the DCI World Championships, and this is their victory run, or encore. As you could probably tell, the energy is bursting at the seams, so celebration and hype is acceptable.
I watched this show at finals and I remember feeling shocked at how incredibly clean their visuals were. And of course, BD brass is always on another level.
Definitely the winning show for a reason
You should check out Blue Devils 1994 My Spanish Heart. Back from the days before speakers and electronics. The videos do not compare to being there. I loved following by siblings during the summer and seeing the shows.
Wooooooo DO IT UP DEVILS
You should watch Carolina Crown 2014, it’s my favorite show and there’s a lot of cool stuff in it
We need more head cam reactions!😂
Why not Ben Gunnarsson's? Bluecoats 2016. Pretty sure it's if not the most viewed, but one of them with like 2mil
The Blue Devils, there is nothing better!
Courtney look up Bayonne bridgemen!!!! From nj!!! Hope to see your reaction to one of their amazing shows!!❤️❤️❤️
Blue devils 2018 show dreams and nighthawks she might like because of their ballad
You really ought to watch blue devils 2011
4:22 look jesus plays the contra
Courtney, please please please somehow film your reaction at your first live DCI show in 2022...that reaction vid will be killer...
Sean with the barks 😼
It use to be, that being on the marching band was a geeky thing to do but now it's a much-wanted thing to do
This makes my heart so happy!! As a member of the
2019 Blue Devils thank you for watching/reacting to our encore!! 💙💙
Blue Devils 2003- The Phenomenon of Cool PLEASE!
You should do the "Astartes" WH40k fan film. It's an amazing piece of art, and just FULL of heresy
Considering you've seen a lot of the amazing modern shows, I'd like to throw Cadets 2005 as a recommendation
I know you've been doing a lot of DCI. Here is something else that is very uniquely American. Specifically Philadelphia. Every New Year's Day, Philadelphia hosts the Mummer's Parade.
The favorite division in the parade is called the String Bands. They march up Broad Street from South Philadelphia to Center City, entertaining the city along the way. Typically there are about 15 bands performing.
Check out this performance from last year by the South Philadelphia String Band. (ua-cam.com/video/oiBtsr2iPSc/v-deo.html)
React to Carolina Crown's Hornline Drops The Hammer in Houston
Hey 👋 nice vids ,for next video you should react to blue devil 2018 show it's very clean
Majority of the cameta work was Go-Pros by the members themselves.
No shit
Please do a reaction video to Navy Seal Admiral McRaven graduation speech. Thank you Courtney you are awesome little lady... ;)
Did you find the 2017 trombone feature?
I know most people will deny it, but they all start in High School, not sure if you have seen any?
Courtney, I am a 1971 & 1972 Cadet alumnus who would like to recommend the 2012 Cadets Christmas-themed show "12.25". Here is a good UA-cam link and I think you will enjoy all the Christmas symbolism both musically and visually if you pay attention & watch it several times. It is very old-school but I think it would be great for a "Christmas" show from you. LINK: Christmas Cadet Cookies 2012 - UA-cam
You should react to the Blue Devils 1995- Carpe Noctem!
BLUE KNIGHTS 2019
I'll say it again you need to watch the 1991 NHL All-Star game national anthem. I promise you will not regret it
You know it really is a big deal when another corps wins DCI cuz that means for one year a corps beat this and that's gotta be extremely difficult lol BD is just something else man 🙌
I liked both Bluecoats and Blue Devils that year. Bluecoats was the better show imo but both great. I recommend time traveling back to 2005, Cadets. The zone. The show that got me into DCI
YESS
At 6:09 the trombones did the same thing they did in 2017 but faster
Pkease react to Kevin Durant's MVP speech!
Hehehe... "This is how we do it"
You wanna see some great bands? Check it she HBCUs (historically black colleges and universities) like Prairie View A&M, NC A&T, Jackson St., Grambling St., and Bethune-Cookman.
