This video never went viral. I'm a little bit upset. Such a great love story. Congrat to them both!
Thanks! It sort of did, it sort of didn't. There was a good chunk of days where it was being posted all over Tumblr, and the views went from a couple hundred to several thousand. I still get new people watching it all the time. Glad so many have enjoyed the video and the moment.
Their children are going to be insane horn players I'm telling you now. By somewhere around 2029 you'll see his kid's name in the books
God, every single time the same three words get me. "I am home." I can't wait to soon have a corps to call home.
iamtheipodman did you find one
“i am home” i’m crying yo same😭😭😭
Baritone players cry?? Understandable though
opienick OWEN WTF HAHAHAHAHAHA
I'm a baritone junior and I haven't seen one cry
They wish they were a Melli . . . JUST KIDDING!!!
A real "drum corp(s) bride"
@Ray Fallon We are married. Have been since Sep 2014 but no plans to change that. This was much more than a tour romance.
JTS Entertainment late congrats, and Brian beck is my teacher now lmao
Lol anyone notice where he's standing there at 2:00 his feet are at 45's, like naturally at 45's. I find that funny. :)
I catch myself doing that from time to time tbh.
I do that regardless.
That happens
Destiny B lol only marching band people understand
I naturally stand this way now too lmao
Hahaha this is so great especially because you pulled the ring out of your fanny pack 😂😂! But seriously, congrats I wish you two prosperity and many years of happiness ^.^
That glove tan tho.
I almost cried, which is saying a lot. I don't cry for anything. Sad parts in movies, happy joyous moments, etc. This was truly the most amazing thing I've ever seen.
Im just impressed that they stood at attention that long. Their arms must be either really freakin buff cause the practice a bunch or that theres like 50 of those people shaking lmao (I know its cause the practice)
12 people weren't proposed to at their age-outs.
I love how the majority of the rest of the corps in the circle stayed at attention.
If I had five seconds... I'd risk running it to ten by saying, "The ones that come after you will forever look up to you. Be always worthy of that respect, and never fail to show it in return."
Congratulations, best of luck, and strive every day to be just a little more worthy of one another.
Crossmen soprano (trumpet =P ) '87 - '89
Proud Dad for a Crossmen age-out (cg) '14-'15
982
i'd say "don't give up, enjoy it while it lasts because it doesn't last forever."
omg thats the most adorable thing I've ever seen!! I wish those two a happy life together
He could have said, "I'm aging out of band, and now I want to age out in life w/ you!" But, yeah, very well done! best wishes
Wow, this video is making me cry.
From sixth grade to aging out, love withstands the test of time
Fucking that zelda level complete sound
i'm glad i wasn't the only one who heard!!
Loved it!
patrickguyum I thought That was Final Fantasy?
Wasn't this held at Emmerich Manual High School at Indianapolis, In?! Lol, I go there. This is my second year here! I wish next year DCI would come and talk and help marching band and band students overall!! It makes me sad because it's my senior year next school year. I'm a mellophone/French Horn player and I really want to do DCI, but I'm not financially ready, I need help going out and being out there since I'm use to blending. This will be my third year in marching band. We don't do band camps, I might go to California and if I don't I want to do band camp, and also strengthen my skills and also on my Violin.. My goal as a musician is to play every instrument and create any type of style of music .... I don't know where to start, scholarships, and so on... Usually, programs make you study on one instrument, but I love both...ughh..idk
+Rosebud-Lynn Euneice Yes, it was! The Oregon Crusaders have rehearsed there every summer since 2011, if I remember correctly. They are there the week before championships, so around the second week of August. I don't know if they will be using this housing site again or not -- I aged out the year this video was made, in 2012, so I am out of the loop mostly now. Pursue your musical dreams!
This is such a great event! So happy for the two of you! May you both always hear the harmony of love!
HOlY SHIT IM SO HAPPY I FOUND THIS
Relationship goals.
I'm not crying you're crying.
W-what no I am not crying....y-your crying
I love that the ring was in the fanny pack instead of the pocket...that's a band nerd for ya
Not gonna lie... This here got me good, I was breaking out in tears. I'm a band nerd here and usually proposals never get to me but this one here... I felt it, I don't know how to explain it but yeah. I'm a senior in high school not expecting to get into a drum corps of any kind but I get it. Last year, moving on, it is gonna be one tough mother out there. I know this is an old vid but congrats my dude and dudett!
Someone should of yelled "NOW GIVE HER THE" and some play a loud D on their horn.
What a stupid idea
I've never heard such a great idea before in my life
Actually the greatest idea ever
I hope she doesn’t have perfect pitch...
I absolutely positively am in love with this. thank you for posting
“Don’t ever take anything for granite”
-tall bari guy
I’m very sorry...
I literally started crying
That's so cute I can't wait till I get into drum corps
Ugh this is just too amazing.
4:58 starts playing Carolina crown Bohemia crown set*
I miss this. I miss all of you wonderful people.
I love my OC family.
I sure hope these wonderful 2 are still together and doing well bless❤
We are! Thank you!
This is fantastic. I'm very proud to have marched with both of you.
Oh my Lord, you're the Watchtower Database guy!
Oh wow!
mah oh man oh man. Seeing this video makes me really miss my days of marching band/drum corps. Congrats.
D'AWWWWWW!! Too stinkin cute!
Literally sobbing when he was talking about how he's going to miss band. He took the words right out of my mouth.
That was beautiful, brought me to tears '88-92 PR-Suncoast
That was so freaking cute!!! Loved it! But the poor color guard had to stand at right shoulder the whole time xD
Tuba And A Trumpet I Thought They Said This Was Impossible
Thats a Euphonium not a tuba
And she didn't even put her trumpet down.
This is amazing!!
That guy on staff is such a vibe, id love to march with him
I feel so sorry for those contras! They had to keep their horns there through that entire entire thing? Dear lord I'm sorry! I feel your pain contra brothers!
Don't worry they trained for this
i dont usually cry at proposals, but when it has to be like this..i cry like a baby...
I laughed when she took off her glove to put the ring on and she had a tan line hahaha. They are both so cute!
Started crying and I don't even march here
Oh my gosh that is so beautiful!
That Zelda tune at the end. GOLDEN !
I’m not crying, you are!
that bass 5 is fucking monstrous
That feel... I feel a feely feel. The kind of feely feel... That makes me feel...
feely...
the glove tan line
Scott steele, and max logan! woah! after marching with them this video takes on a whole new meaning. congratulations on the open class title, and the marriage.
This is the cutest proposal!!!
I am crying so much right now.
Lie down.
Try not to cry.
Cry a lot.
Final fantasy victory theme on a horn in the background after she agrees. made my day random fellow nerd in corp, whoever you may be.
At AIA championships the senior winterguard had a proposal at the end of the show. It was a doctor show so her boyfriend runs out in the end with a doctor outfit on and proposes. It was the cutest thing ever. /watch?v=FOwraAYmF5k&list=WL7867B535219694FC
Poor contras
AND AHHHAHAHAHA THE GLOVE TAN LINE WHEN SHE TAKES IT OFF
This is my dream 😭❤
The guy with the brown cape was our high school field instructor and the guy with the beard and bro shirt is our drill instructor.
I'm a guy and I thought this was absolutely freaking cute.
awwwwww he cried for his women so sweet
This was so fucking cute... :')
Fuck you sir for making me cry lol good job and I hope you two are so happy and stay happy for as long as you both may live
How will she perform with that ring
That made me cryyyyyyy 😭😭❤️❤️
why am i watching this
im in guard and this is the cutest, adorable, and geeky thing I have ever seen and I absolutely love it!!!!!!
there really is no bond like the ones formed in corps.
I swear it's not tears running down my face, it's just sweat I SWEAR
Notice the title, "drum corps" proposal. This is not high school or college band. This is drum corps. We travel the country every summer, performing in dozens of stadiums and competing against other corps, culminating in the Drum Corps International World Championships in Indianapolis, Indiana. The year this was filmed, we (the Oregon Crusaders) won the Open Class division gold medal, and it was also my and my fiancée's age-out year, meaning we were too old to do drum corps anymore.
Good shit.....
OH Y GOSH THIS IS AMAZING
When she took off her glove I was like, "Oh my gosh! That glove tan is intense!" Lol. So cute though
I meant was that was so cute I can't wait till I get into drum corps
Best traditions night ever. I mean, I've only had 2, but I doubt there'll be another like it.
I'm not sure if I started crying when he proposed or they all started saying goodbye...
seriously... every low brass player in the world plays the Victory Theme after EVER occasion. They have been trained well.
This was just so cute, really nice.
I'm not crying, you're crying.
ALL drum corps use contras. Contras have a way better sound than sousaphones. Contras are made to mimic the sound of a concert tuba, which is what most groups want. A concert- like sound on the marching field
Congrats!
THAT GLOVE TAN THOUGH
So cute! asdfghjkl I hope they have a great life together
Did these kids a) get married and b) stay married? So few tour romances last into September. These kids seem nice but more into keeping the corps memories alive than starting a romance outside drum corps... (I'm happy to be wrong about that)
It sounds as if they knew each other since 6th grade, and had been dating for three years, so....
You mean every Drum Corps
I want a drum corp proposal!
oh my goodness that tan line from her glove
OH MY GOD I'M BAWLING EVERYWHERRRRE
That would have been an awkward season if she said no.
omg this is too great i cant take it... i cried ha
They haven't aged out at that point... They are only almost old.
Oh, the feels.... :')
The glove tan 😂
Them feels!! And that glove tan!
Shoulda told the drumline to make as much noise as possible
