AUBwins 10,344 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 It doesn't get much better than this. Precision percussion at its best. Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/164158-au-marching-band-the-drumline/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerbelle 5,299 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 WOW OH WOW!!!! That was so awesome!!!! Very talented kids. Very tough too.....wearing those heavy, hot band uniforms and performing flawlessly when it's 100 degrees outside. I do not know how they do it. Thanks for posting that video.

Sully to Beasley 643 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 One of my favorite parts of the Auburn Gameday Experience is the march around by the Auburn University Marching Band prior to the pregame festivities beginning. They are and have always been an awesome band! Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/164158-au-marching-band-the-drumline/#findComment-2925945 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linayus 676 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 I played sax in school but tinkered around with other instruments, including the snare and quads. I definitely enjoyed playing the quads! Link to comment https://www.aufamily.com/topic/164158-au-marching-band-the-drumline/#findComment-2926137 Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Always tried to make the drumline performance a part of my visit on game day....still a great show. Thanks...

AUBwins 10,344 Posted September 28, 2018 Author Share Posted September 28, 2018 I played percussion through high school, so I have a bit of fondness towards it. Boy this video took me back a bit.

The quads are addictively fun. It is actually easier to pick up than you might think, since they are designed to flow alternately with your arms/wrists from left and right.

Would have to be a trombone, saxophone or the trumpet. Most likely the trumpet would be choice.

WVR 839 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I too played the drums throughout middle school and high school. That brings back some great memories. Thanks for posting.

AUFriction 1,179 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Here's the full video. Half of it is them warming up, but, if you were never a part of a drumline (or the marching band), you won't know the difference.

AUFriction 1,179 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Also, for those unfamiliar with percussion, marching band, or drumline, the goal of a drumline is to sound like there is only one person playing each instrument. When it sounds that way, it means everyone is playing everything correctly and perfectly in time. This is known as playing "clean." Notice that during most of the warm ups, each section sounds more or less this way. Dr. Rosener has done a great job with this year's drumline this year. Maybe he should coach our offense.

Thanks for posting the full video, and for the insight. I have to say it again. I admire these young people so much.....the talent, the many long hours of hard work that it takes to sound so great, and all of that on top of being a college student. They are amazing.

au701948 1,266 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I was in the AU Drumline and Band from 1966 through 1970. It was hard work but way way more enjoyable than it was hard. By no means however, did we have the number of percussionists in today's lineup. We only had 11 members back in the dark ages of 1969. It is amazing that I still remember the names of most of our group.
