Watching this on high cam really shows you why they won. Great show
Not my favorite corps but in my top 3. I thought they should have won last year--they would have been the third corps to get a three-peat championship. That being the case, this year they would have been the first corps to get a four-peat
Some shows just seem to write themselves. This was one of em.
I honestly hated the show when I saw it in person. Looks a lot better now.
BD has several almost 3-peats... but they have always won the year following a missed 3-peat!
Personally, I enjoyed SCV's show more, but I can definitely see why BD won.
Just imagine joining the blue devils in 2014 and 2017 being your last year. My goodness, what a time to be alive.
Doctor: you have fourteen minutes to live
Me:
Alec Ryan then you have 30 seconds to rejoice in what you just heard
Alec Ryan what you gonna do the last 30 seconds
Alec Ryan this is actually a comment I’d take seriously for once (unlike a lot of these comments on memes and stuff) I’d want to die seeing/ hearing something beautiful.
200 likes congrats
Alec Ryan well Worth it
My only question is: How does someone come up with all this?? I mean arranging every single instrument of this entire piece is one thing but actually coming up with the movements for every player and performer....incredible
That trombone feature has to be the coolest thing ever
Crown 2018 outdid this one imo
You haven't heard a trombone feature until you hear this czcams.com/video/drhq4frGo60/video.html
Yeah, i really loved the trombone feature, that was awesome!!
@@charleyhibschweiler4555 this is a DCI show tho not a symphony show.
12:40 God that ending is so sexy.... Silence for a few seconds...then the announcer says their name and everybody starts freaking out for the final chord...goosebumps everytime
I think I’ve watched this show more times than my marching band has played our own show
There's one thing that I can't f*cking stand about this performance.
Its that I wasn't able to see it in person.
This is _the_ *most spectacular* DCI performance I've ever seen/heard
Aaron Anderson I was an ignorant asshole saying that scv should have won without watching Metamorph, then I took my time to watch this and I realized I was wrong, this show is way too espectacular and perfect, I'm out of words.
Aaron Anderson I saw it in person. Jesus Christ. It’s hands down the best show I’ve seen in person.
Was right in the front row of the 45 during finals and the encore, what an amazing experience, out of all my years of going to finals this show really got me
Yeah, I left right after bluecoats when I went. I should have stayed from crown and BD 😭
I couldn't see finals but I went to every California shoe tho (this was my cousins last year doing dci before college)
11:16 Look at the Contras on the left. They are having way to much fun lmaoo
Watching this run of the show literally since it came out, at least 3 times a week till today, I can honestly say I've figured out why people don't like BD. Simply speaking: because they're always "pompous and braggy", even this show I must admit was them basically saying "we've been around forever, we're gonna stay that way". But the thing is, they are that way because yeah, they win all the time, they've had so much media coverage from a 14 yo snare player, to being a subject of a tv show. The truth is though, they get stuff like that because they're such a masterful group of performers, and they deserve every medal they get. Watch the guard, the foot timing, anything you want, and you'll see it nearly perfectly in sync. So cheers to BD, your personality as a corps suits your capability. Personally, I don't like all their shows, but youd have to be insane to not love this one.
Rastafox if you are good it’s completely fine to be pompous and Braggy, they deliver and they are masters at their craft, it’s what they do and I don’t understand why people take issue with it. Music and performance in and off themselves are selfish endeavors, the goal is to create art that people love and in competitive marching, you are bettering yourself and your band to be the best.
Yes, I am one of those individuals who feel BD gets a leg up each year on scores based on prior years performances. Having said that, when I watched this show with some friends, my prediction was that BD would finish 0.5 pts ahead of SCV, based primarily on their music score (which I felt connected with the fans much more than SCV's program), but the final result turned out to be 0.93 points difference. Personally, I felt SCV was a much more technically challenging and cleaner show than BD. My friends thought SCV would overtake BD, but I did not agree. In the end, BD pulled off a stunning program, and the only BD show that I continually listen to on a regular basis.
11:07 - 11:28 the drum major in the back just going ham to get to the front
MY LITTLE FRESHMAN IN HIGH SCHOOL SELF CAN NOT HANDLE THIS.
Much Love how does your sophomore in high school self feel
Look on the bright side, you were able to experience the Blue Devils at its prime
Much Love mood
those rifles were so together holy shit
This show motivates me to do DCI in the future
I hope you do! This is incredibly difficult. And anything worth its salt is pretty damn difficult. Excellence is worth the blood sweat and tears required. Go for it Shade!!
My goal is to move to Concord in 2-3 years and join BD
the fps of this video could cure cancer
I want to meet the people who choreographed and wrote this show, what an absolute spectacle!
Recorded in 4k
*watches in 144p*
Daniel McInnis don’t you dare
Definitely watched this is 1080p60FPS but even then it was ducking good
Justin Rios Get comcast my dads like a manager of the east coast or something one of them we get really high speed internet for free. But Comcast is good.
@@loganshort727 How do you figure out how much fps you're getting on a youtube vid?
Sensei Yeet Click “stats for nerds” on a comy
7:00-8:25 is without a doubt the most beautiful and incredibly powerful part of this entire show. My God.
Never seen so much energy put into an encore.
christiam taro then watch the bluecoats last year
Or the 1984 Garfield Cadets. It was amazing. Best victory performance ever.
Christian Prentice you haven’t seen many encores then.
10:47 “Presenting, The Krabby Patty!”
Ahah you saw that one too
YES
THE0RY_0F_XonaoN 1 year later but I’m still going to ask, was that a miles kenobbie reference
@@KingHeadass44 yeah from his quad cam video
@@KingHeadass44 it took me months to figure out, but yes
I am the guy right above "MAR." who essentially threw a punch at 12:10. Best internship ever.
Lucky you
How do i sign up
On the beat drop as well
10:55 is by far the best part, i know this is so late.
12:47 goosebumps.
what are you talking about man 7:48
Jasmine Aliya more like 0:00 - 13:30
I regret that I have but one thumbs-up to give.
We out here in 2017, while your camera is still in 2000!
Awesome video, thank you for this.
Congrats on life rite after if you were in it
Concord. Blue Devils. *eargasm*
Same though
Tbh... Blue Devils are not my favorite Drum Corp. I feel like they are so overrated sometimes.. but this...this performance legit brought tears to my eyes. Great show Blue Devils! Absolutely phenomenal!
William Parker honestly same!
6:30 - 6:56 I never noticed it before until I got a good pair of headphones. This entire solo is happening at the same time as the basses in the back. Even the hand to hands around 6:50. This is freaking nuts.
1:14. This show lampoons the Blue Devils early performances where the flugel horn soloist can't finish the last note of his short phrase without taking a breath. And 1:01 marchers in the rear front halt by mistake, and run to catch up to the line. These are the nuances of this brilliant design team. The show begins with thinly arranged music and simple rifle spins and ends with a complete transformation into a sophisticated performing company with depth and finesse. Brilliant.
2:24 always gives me chills. When ever I watch it its amazing.
Just jumped to that and immediately got shivers too, no context needed before that. Its just goddamn powerful dude.
Ever since I was a kid I have been a huge blue devils fan, I remember watching videos of Brandon Olander at age 12, dreaming to grow up to be a prodigy like him, i practiced my tail off and succeeded. I have an very strong emotional connection to this show as it was the very first BD show I saw live, a truly incredible show. We sat right where the ballads big hit was staged and I remember being speachless, every time I look back at this video I get choked up as it represents my dreams, I love what you guys do and how you do it. Continue to be the best in the world, blue devils
7:40 crazy goosebumps. Not only was it the emotion and music coming from the ensemble but the people on ground and in the seats reactions to it. Best ballad this year for sure.
I love victory runs! They let those who have worked the hardest perform their show, "one last time" and gives them the spine-tingling, bone-rattling "eargasm" that was that show! You can tell those kids had so much raw emotion in them on that run.
Note the butterfly larvae at 1:36 in full length white dance bags. Later the flags have a butterfly wing design, the Flight of the Bumblebee, all part of the theme of transformation and taking flight.
Jesu Spectre I didn't take a second to look for any theme or story to the show. I just love listening to it and watching the amount of energy out on the field
Oh so that was what the demented ghosts were
And the ballad fits in even as well (it's called "Everything must change")
I thought they were giant dancing pillows.
I wonder if they planned that 🤔🤔
10:38 AHHH I HEARD THAT FELLINIESQUE QUOTE IN THAT TRUMPET FEATURE DON'T TRY TO FOOL ME
12:10 is undeniably my favorite part of this performance. I've watched this so many times and have shamelessly forced it onto my family and friends (😂) and every time, it brought me to tears.
That closer gives me goosebumps.
Every. Single. Time.
I was a drum major and I am so proud to see these bands perform...this is what a marching band field show should be. Out of this world. Blood, sweat, and tears of hard work and extreme team work...
I’ve watched this upwards of 300 times and I still am not tired of it. They deserved to win this year.
I think I've watched this around 100 times now... addiction? Nah, perfection.
The bell tones at 10:08!!! Gets me every time :'D
Audio quality so good, you can actually hear the trombone call and response during the big ballad moment. Thank you for this.
Best ballad in 2017!
Best ballad...ever?
For me, it's up there.
Agree
Should look at Devils 2016 ballad
Jonesy For sure.
Relentless had a better one imo
I watch this once a day
Wonky same but at least 2 times
Same but 3 times
Me too!
Does anybody else get chills when they hear Javiers trumpet scream at 10:12??😳😳
7:40 brings tears to my eyes with the beautiful solo part and accompaniment.
it’s crazy how i’ve marched on the exact same field as these legends. i hope to join this wonderful group of people.
12:12 gave me so many goosebumps, it’s so much like the interstellar theme and if that’s what it is: holy shit
why am i crying
molly it’s beautiful 😍😭😭
Cause life is good
Bc excellence is a deeply beautiful thing. :D
It sucked
That I missed out I wish I had gone and I think 2017 was a good year for all corps, but I think the Blue Devils had the best show ever.
7:49 gives me chills every time! Such an amazing show this was!
The closer brings tears to my eyes every time
Out of my 25 years of being a DCI FAN, THIS is my favorite show.
You know your a true blue devils fan when you play this exact performance and know every single part by heart lol i was jamming to this and doing the dishes i was glad no one walked in bc i looked like i was straight out of a kids cartoon but i love this performance so much and i hope i can eventually play for the blue devils💙🖤🤍
7:38 that escalated quickly
10:46 that trombone solo though
the quality of the video makes want to cry.
remember, quality sex > quickie sex
That last 2 minutes, capped with Jerry Seawright (I think) saying, "Concord Blue Devils" tears me up with the greatest sense of Blue Devil pride I will take to my grave. And my marching years were 24 years before this.
Jerry Seawright... Legend... La Suerte de Los Tontos... the off the line.. the drums and bells... the classic Blue Devils color palette (with an obviously modern twist) and finally... the Pegasus wings. Take all of that and add to it a group of performers that were insanely talented and worked their asses off, and CLEARLY understood the show, and all it's intricacies... There was NO way this show wasn't gonna win this year.
That closer never fails to bring a tear to my eye...so many emotions mixed into that one moment.
Watched this a bazillion times and I swear it's always amazing.
It's really cool seeing the crowd's reaction and the activity on the field. Almost feels like you're there too. Thanks so much for uploading!
No matter how many times I watch this, I always will get chills.
yo i’m really high rn watching this and 7:49 gave me chills and almost made me cry 😂
and the ending just did it again
I'm sober and same
Bro same
I’m not even high and i deadass cried lol
I nutted at 2:24
I’m in marching band and we watch blue devils after every practice and it gives me chills every time I hear them play
Y'know you don't have to be a BD fan (I certainly am not) to cry for that ending. Just phenomenal
12:52 there’s a guard member in the right 40 line that hits a trumpet player.
That bad ass performance and your worried about a trumpet player lol
Oh yeah, that must’ve hurt
Outlaw_Run it’s on the guy’s headcam. He says adrenaline was so high that it didn’t break his embouchure on a double g and he barely even felt it
A guy also fell behind him
I’ve had flags like that take me out more than once 😂
11:03 Conductor at the rear running hard to get to the front..:)
Rjsals' Aviation Workshop drum major*
Thank you for capturing this wonderful video. Awesome to be able to relive an amazing memory!
Evan Espanto tell Dave Gibbs not to file a copyright strike like in ‘14
Evan Espanto Hey you went to Ayala!!! I go to another high school in CVUSD...
at 6:22 i was watching the snareline and the rifle looked like a stick, i got actually scared XD
I always thought that these dude were overrated until I saw this and realized they are just that good
what a hornline!!
Reagan T crown is better
you have to admit though, these BD trumpets are fantastic :) they have such a hard book in this show
Man I'm STILL amazed by this show!!!! Love BD!
There is only ONE drum corps that can use Pegasus Wings in the guard and that corps is the CONCORD BLUE DEVILS! This show is dripping with nostalgia of all the great BD corps of the past whilst still being current and fresh. When those Pegasus Wings came out in the end though.. I mean holy crap... Something got caught in my eye.
Bruh this show is from 3 years ago and I still can’t stop watching 8:06
I love that at 6:59 the backfield drum major just casually tosses the cape and continues on conducting
Man this is already 19 years old. Time really does fly
That was worth watch 2+ years later. As much as they continue to improve year over, this is a signature performance for the Concord Blue Devils. Their alumni would be proud to have witnessed just how great the corps has gotten.
My biggest regret is not seeing this masterpiece in person. The sheer energy just from a recording of this show is most likely amplified in person. Plus, I’d be able to hear the pit percussion, as Tran is an absolute legend. He is always full of energy when he plays. I am also in pit percussion, and am nowhere near that level, but I hope to someday be on the same level as him when I get a little older. Ever since this recording came out, I watched it religiously. It’s one of the few videos that brings me to tears every time I watch it. Thank you for uploading it in such quality. I am forever grateful. 💖💖
There are no words to describe how loud that trumpet feature was live, let alone the rest of the show.
12:10
Cooper: I thought they chose me. They didn't choose me, they chose her.
TARS: For what, Cooper?
Cooper: To save the world!
Even though I'm a drum line guy and fucking love the quad break my favorite part of the show has to be 10:00 - 10:15, gives me fucking chills everytime I hear it.
10:08 hits different
I love stacking harmonies and I've never seen it done on the field before
I never thought that I would appreciate having a 4K monitor this much until after I watched this.
Zach Barnett what brand?
Damn man, Just when you think the entire band's at triple forte, they pull out all the stops and get even louder. Even in the high notes. This is crazy good
Still gives me chills at the end, best show I've ever seen
ThatWasSexy
Bob Ross everything we post is sexy
that crowd reaction 7:41 wow!
Wesley Pijoh my favorite moment of the dci 2017 season. I'll always remember how it felt in that stadium when they hit that part. UGH
Wesley Pijoh goosebumps
I have watched this so many time omg, this makes me marching band:(
My god. Brought tears to my eyes even after all this time.
This is as close to perfection as humanly possible
my god, that drumline feature gave me chills. Also, 7:48 . 'Nuff said. Feel like that should have been the closer, but my god, that made me shake. Had an opportunity to go to Drums along the Rockies and see this show, but I had to give it up for a family trip. I would have given up Paris and London to see this.
I was bawling my eyes out during the ballad; this show was SO GOOD
ahh still watching my favorite show in 2019!!!
1:23 a euph went to make the circle early but came back haha
Eyoel Abera lmao nice catch
Rip
lmao
omg that's fricking great XD
tsk tsk
YO 2:47 zachary hudson the drum set guy dabs
Jimp iX he also dabs a second time around 9:10
I listened to the generated recording of the entire show couldn't believe some of the stuff I heard. Didn't think anyone could ever pull that off but the blue devils do it here flawlessly. I used to be in marching band and am completely amazed at this performance. Fn awesome guys everyone did great work to bring this show about
12:11 interestelar theme
Forever my favorite group. Love the DCI bands
From 7:30 to the end of that feature it ALWAYS gets me crying
