And that is why getting a marching band scholarship to Ohio State is one of the hardest and most prestigious scholarships a person can get!
Yes, getting a scholarship in sports is hard enough but for the band, the competition I am sure is really hard. Matthew's reaction keeps making me laugh.
Said no one ever in the history of the world
I mean we get small scholarships but its only 1000 per year and you already have to be a student to join the band.
Its not like we get a full ride for making the band.
Not
I was a former member of TBDBITL. This was an extremely impressive show and I'm really glad you got to see it! Now consider that the students got all the music and marching drill on a Monday, and performed this the following Saturday. It was fully learned in 4-5 days including memorizing all of the music. And they also had classes at university during the week.
That’s INSANE! I figured they spent months learning these routines. It’s mind blowing that they learned this in a week 🤯
As a Michigan alumni who had a roommate in the Michigan band, we agree this is the best college halftime show in American football history.
I'm from Ohio and we are very proud of the OSU marching band (and the football team). It's nicknamed "The Best Damn Band in the Land". Go Buckeyes!
Damn straight. O-H
I'm legit not into marching bands, and I still always check out OSU's. And that may be the highest compliment you can pay people: So good, they transcend preference.
@@brandyroseann I-O! 💓💓💓💓💓
O-H!!!!
BTW, it is the Ohio State UNIVERSITY Marching band.
I'm Sebian immigrant and I saw FIESTA BOWL game in yr. 2,000 with (#1 ranked) Ohio State vs. (#2 ranked) Florida State in Tempe, AZ. I saw both marching bands performing and parading through the streets od Tempe, the night prior to the game. In military back home I was in marching band, and we were very good - but those two marching bands, especially the Ohio State really blew my mind! It was experience of a lifetime!
These guys practice up to 20-30 hours a week. Obviously it’s also not easy to get a spot in this band. They’re amazing.
There were huge state competitions for marching band in High school. We started to learn to do this before we learned to drive in some bands. It was tons of hard work and lots of hours during school and after but it was worth it. It made me happy to see someone this amazed by it.
I was a band kid. It got me through high school. I have the best memories from practice, band camp, and competition
How do you stay in the right position relative to those around you, and the field?
You are assigned spots based on the yard lines. If you look closely at the football field, there are 4 dashes, called hashmarks between each yard line. You use these as you are learning, and eventually it becomes natural and you don't have to look. You also have to remember to mark time when standing still, rolling you feet heel to toe while in motion, and your music. It takes a lot of skill. But it's so amazing. The constant group practices really make the band your family. It made high school bearable for me.
I loved marching band in high school! Some of my best memories.
I was in the marching band in high school.
I attended Ohio State on full Piano Scholarship. But I also took part in their Chorall progams. We went Salt Lake Ciity amd won the National Championship! The Ohio State Men's Glee Club!
I'm from southern Ohio and there is no band better than TBDBTL. What is even more impressive is that they do a different halftime show for each home game. From my understanding they practice 40-50 hours a week. GO BUCKS! I bleed scarlet and grey.
The Ohio State University stadium is only 10 minutes away from my apartment! The stadium can have over 110,000 people in the stands. The Ohio State University Marching Band is known as "The Best Damn Band in the Land!" This Hollywood Blockbuster video is my favorite!
Their Top Gun tribute was awesome! I never get tired of watching this band. So talented!
I did 6 years in marching band (7th-12th). I love competition season. Having a chilly night, you can see the steam coming from everyone's uniform. My senior show was Wizard of Oz. Had an emerald castle backdrop and when we have the final push to the end with Somewhere Over the Rainbow we had balloons released behind the castle.
DCI (Drum Corps International) are great shows to react to as well. My favorite is Carolina Crown 2011 Rach Star
I was in Marching Band at Appalachian State University. We learned a new show for every single home game. Sometimes we had 2 weeks to learn a show and some weeks we only had 1 week to learn a brand new show.
I was at this game- the performance was incredible!!!!!!!
As I remember, the marching is easy, its the designing that is hard. We spent months learning step width, pivots. Stepping without swaying. But muscle memory is great, just like any sport.
I started playing trombone in the 5th grade and played until I finished my bachelor dagree.
During football season (marching band season), you normally practice between 6 and 10 hrs a day. Normally, 4 hours a day during the off-season.
I would bet I spent more time on a football field than the football team. :)
Parade season is not really anything special because you learn the hard moves during football, and in the spring and summer, you just have to March in a line. :)
In the winter, we also did basketball games, and I competed in jazz festivals.
And most of these kids are 18-22 years old. Band kids are the best! Proud to be one!
1. Superman
2. Lord of the Rings
3. Harry Potter
4. Jurassic Park
5. Pirates of the Caribbean
I grew up 45 minutes east of Columbus, and I am a lifelong Buckeye fan.... And even though I live in NC, I am still a Buckeye through and through! Every time I see THE Ohio State Band perform, I am amazed! All the credit in the world to the band member! The Best Damn Band In The Land!
I marched when I was in high school (grew up in Ohio) and did some Drum Bugle Corp after HS. We used to have printed out sheets that showed all our moves for each song. We could learn an entire show along with the marching assignments in about two weeks total.
Ohio State at this point was using tablets instead of paper, which would have made things so much easier overall. We used to learn two complete shows with complex marching maneuvers at once: One to perform and one to replace that show or use at competitions.
The second formation is the Eye of Sauron by the way.
I would have loved to have done drum corps. I was a band kid in high school and it was my whole life. It seems so amazing now, looking back
Hearing from other band kids brings back some great memories.
You should watch their Disney tribute show, Top Gun show, and tribute to Classic Rock and Roll
As a Buckeye I can tell you going to a game is always such an event!!! And the band is such a major draw to the whole experience 👍🏻
NCAA needs a marching band competition at the end of the season. It would be huge
They took a lot of practice and time to achieve this goal 🎉😮😊🫡📷👏🏽
For the LOTR, they started with the ring and then the eye of Saruman. That's the snitch that Harry catches. You should watch their Top Gun Tribute next :). I did flag line in high school and band camp starts in the weeks before the next school year starts. Each section breaks into their respect groups to learn the choreography and time and then you put everyone together, run through the routine, making tweaks and hope it works, lol. We actually had to re-do the start of our 1st number because the timing was NEVER right with each beat of the opening song. I ended up with tendonitis as a result but it all came together. So it's at least a month for high school but I can't say for college. We did the same routine all year and went to competitions but from what I understand OSU does a different half time show every game so the practice for them must be in sane.
It’s the greatest marching band in the world. Every band kid dreams of going there
This Ohio State University Band video has become one of my favorite videos of all time. Every move they make is simply delightful ... and unbelievable! I've now watched this probably seven or eight times. What joy!
TBDBITL and the members of the OSU marching band earn that title every year. The best game to attend is alumni band day when four script Ohios are preformed
They change their show for every home game. So they probably have about 2 weeks between each home game.
A buckeye is a nut lol.
I like how he said go bucks though😆
I imagine soon after this is over the staff is coming up with a theme and script, then going through walk throughs, fixing timing and positioning, moving faster and smother, while practicing the music in the hall and on the field?
It’s nice seeing our band through fresh eyes. We take their talent for granted and wouldn’t expect anything less from them
Band members usually share the same schedule as the football time for hours of practice should help give you an idea, 2-4 hours in the morning and 2-4 in the afternoon each school is a bit different. Had friends in a band that would be out here there practicing while the Color Guard, football, and most other sports were too. in texas, it gets hot fast best to practice as many hours as you can in the morning.
3:30p to 6p - 3 times a week. If we didn't have a football game on Friday night, then we would come in at 4am in the morning to practice before heading out for competition. No issues because our 80-110 members are a family and if there is no football game we are all at the cinema.
@grking01 Each school system and state is different. Where I lived your last two periods where football and band would continue tell 4-4:30. Five days a week and some time Saturday morning. There was also morning practice come in at 6am and first two classes of the day football and band, other sports too. We had A and B days. Allowed for student to have longer in classes and more classes for trade skill learning in school. Got my home health aid and can before graduating high school, while also doing JROTC and color guard. Liked the A and B day schedule.
@@CantTakeTheSkysFromME Back when I was in high school, the football team sucked. After the marching band plays during half time, no one is in the stands. Depending how big of a blow out, the band would leave too. Our marching band went as much as 110 members (high school only have 700 students), we could have formed a football team and beat my school.
@@grking01 sounds like mine is bigger closer to over 1300, our football team was the worse and our band was okay. put people came out and stayed the whole time. I use to be the one commanding or holding one of the flags, in the color guard to come out to the field for the pledge and other events. and then we stayed to watch the band people's stuff while they were on the field. We were free to enjoy the game on our own that's how I got in for free. lol
I ushered the games back in the 1970's. the band could do this because they had their own football field marked off in one of the parking lots next to the satdium. and lots and lots of practice
Check out when they went with the NFL to London and did a show at Whimbley !
The 2nd formation was MOUNT DOOM from LORDS OF THE RINGS..
I am trying to make a push to get this reclassified or at least treated as a sport, it meets all the criteria technically speaking, and there is a competition and pro-competition level, but HS still refuse to treat them as athletes. yet will count cheerleaders as athletes.
All while studying 😊
Buckeye chiming in... The second one was The Eye of Sauron from Lord of the Rings.
All the band members get ipads to help with learning the show. The usually start practicing 6 months before the football season. I go to OSU and they are definitely tbdbitl!!!
involved in choreographing these lol it’s actually way easier with computers now. Lol but this is incredibly well done. Bravo to the conductors, illustrators, drum majors and the band marching their butts off. I was always much thinner at the end of marching season. 🤣😂
You'll see the flag from TTUN, Buckeye for (X)ichigan, quite often. Always getting sunk, put in a garbage can, etc. And always remember. OH
He guy they ate, was a guy wearing the uniform of their Arch Rivals, University of Michigan
Good video, Matthew. Ohio State is my Alma Mater. Thank you for sharing.
Watch the individual musicians.. They are often marching backward (in step, mind you) or sideways, right where they belong. There are several vids on CZcams taken by GoPro cameras mounted on band members' hats or instruments that show some of these moves from their point of view. It must be such a joy to perform!
By the way, the Lord of the Rings fanfare at about 5:15 is not from the movie score, but is the start of Johan de Meij's excellent Symphony #1, The Lord of the Rings (1988). I give extra points to the music director for quoting it here. It was written for concert band, and it is a pity that it is not used more often for such performances. You can find good performances of it on CZcams.
I note that you expressed a heraldic preference for Michigan State's Swedish-flag colors. A good many ears ago, the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) experienced a popularity fad in Sweden, with UCLA school caps, sweatshirts, and similar merchandise worn by many young people (who had no idea what UCLA was - they just pronounced it Ooklah), simply because the colors were (and are) blue and gold/yellow. UCLA has a marching band too ('The solid gold sound') but they are not at all as ambitious as OSU's wonderful troupe.
Hey! Thank you for watching!
🗨 Comment what you want to see next time!

here are two videos that I put together, if you are interested! I felt like we needed an updated Best College Football Environments video on CZcams. About half of the videos I took personally at games I went to. Part 1: czcams.com/video/E1BBhqWDJJQ/video.html and Part 2: czcams.com/video/X5MU9Ph8DZI/video.html
Remember, these type of performances, although a little less complicated, have been done by these members since their 9th grade in High School. Many of the University players are on Music Scholarships, but not all. In High School, we would begin a month prior to the school year starting for at least 3 hours 5 times per week, reducing to 2 hours or more during the school
This does not include the hours of memorizing and perfecting your music at home …. And this was just in their High School years
My Dad, Uncle and 3 out of 5 siblings OSU Band !!
The person the T-Rex swallowed is dressed as a Michigan football player, if you look close you will see the T-Rex spit out his helmet
So it is 😅😆 ty for the tip😊
@@cleftheart1969 We were playing Penn State that game but no matter who we played we teased our hated rivals Michigan
@brendawalters3728 🤭 that's funny 😁 why do yall hate each other? I'm not a sports person but I would kill too see your band live 🙏🏾🙌🏾👏🏾
I was in the band in the ,80s now they use iPhones to chart movements and on the beg of the week all halftime music is recorded
They take this recording to the practice field and map this show to the recording
The second one is the eye of sauron
Bro you have to get on a plane and get a ticket to one of these games and be in the stands to experience it live. C'mon over!!!
This is the best Damn Band in the Land! bar none!!!!
I matched for 6 years when I was younger. Some of my best memories came from putting these shows together.
I am enjoying your reaction. Ohio State Band members are mostly on scholarship to the University. Students start in Junior High (6th Grade). They build these skills to get the awaited honor of being part of such a prestigious Band. University usually take 4 years but these people usually take an additional year to enjoy it longer.
I’m in my high school’s marching band haven’t made it to university but we spend at least 3 weeks of our summer vacation working on our show and hours on school days but we never had set shapes that look that cool I mean we’ve had really hard choreography especially from our last season show but not when it came to forms and the shapes we make for it.
The only relevant information I can share is what it was like as the only girl in our drumline - but in Highschool, not college/university...
Still, we were to report hours before school every weekday and practice at other scheduled times, also after school. Weekends were for football games & we also had to travel to perform sometimes.
Yet nothing our band ever did even paled in comparison to what OSU does.
My point is: Whether in college or highschool, band = life. I quit that scat & got my degree in fine art & studio art at University.
A new program each week . . . PRACTICE - DEDICATION - PERFECTION!
Thanks , i told you so. lol , The 2015 NFL show in London is almost as good.
Look up the DCI (drum corps international) teams. They do annual competitions and some of the best bands around come together.
It’s really a matter of knowing the music and knowing what yard line you’re supposed to hit at the right time. If it all goes well, then you’ll never notice an individual musician.
There is a Ohio State "Back to the Future" marching band😊
You should check out DCI! It’s professional marching band, with the best of the best. Highly recommend Bluecoats or Boston Crusaders 2022
Kingsmen too!
he went into the phone booth as Clark Kent and came outas Superman to save the falling bldg !!
You should see them do script "Ohio"!
I cant deny it I’m so glad and grateful to be American (grew up in Texas) I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else ( Ive been to Europe,Central American, Mexico,Canada, Caribbean ,Pacific Islands - I wouldn’t move for anything. My father fought for this country and so did my son - I love my country. It’s God Family Country
FYI: At 9:46 after the dinosaur formation ate the drum major...it "spit" out his hat! Ya skillllllllz
Hey EVERYONE, the dinosaur in the Jurassic Park part, didn't eat the Drum Major, he ate a Michigan State University football player! This was the game where they play against their BIGGEST rival, Michigan! The Drum Major was wearing Red, and Michigan State colors are Green and White, which the football player was wearing.
I forget which team won the game. But that's why the player was eaten and Michigan's ship was destroyed. Both items were a bit of fun but also a bit of intimidation.
Best band in all the land
Every international person I meet is so enamored by marching bands lol That and walmart
They start practicing the repertoire for the season during the summer and rehearse each rehearsal hours and hours a day throughout the week before the game
Should check out the Blugold Marching Band! We are the largest in college level for a D3 school, over 400 people!
No, the T. Rex is eating a poor soul wearing a University of Michigan T shirt. The rivalry between UoM and OSU is intense and decades old. It's part of the fun of half time. The Drum Major is standing in the middle of the formation.
1 week to memorize and practice
You have to check out DCI, Drum Corps International, competitions.
As cool as this is, remember they are also playing their instruments and they have a new show at different games during the year.
Movie #1 - Superman / Man of Steel
Movie #2 - Lord of the Rings (One Ring & then the Eye of Sauron)
Movie #3 - Harry Potter (with the winged Golden Snitch)
Movie #4 - Jurrasic Park (T-rex eating a dude on the field)
Movie #5 - Pirates of the Caribbean (ship battle - Ohio against Michigan)
I imagine this has gotten much easier with computers and the huge stadium screens. Easy to do the animation. Each person a dot on the screen and create the animation. Put the animation on the stadium big screen. Camera on the field superimposed over animation and each person has to stay on their mark. Playing and walking is like walking and talking. Once you know the music it's automatic.
In high school I was in the marching band and during the summer before school got back in session the band directors would plan and design the halftime show. We had a full week of band camp in a nearby town which had a small college. We stayed there 24/7 for the week staying in the dorms. I think we did this the week before school started. The first game was the second Friday of the new school year so that first week of school we’d have band practice after school for 3 hours twice that week. During band camp we started learning the halftime show routine so those practices after school were really just perfecting it. Of course our routines were not nearly as elaborate as Ohio State’s! People always ask the same thing you did…how can they learn this and perform it perfectly? It all comes down to muscle memory. You run through the routine over and over again until your body basically just runs on automatic pilot. I remember many times after our halftime performance I realized I didn’t even actually think out there. My body just kinda did what it had learned.
One week to get it down and memorized , and also a full class load ! For four years your life is spoken for !
The flag on the left is University of MIchigan and of course OSU, there has been a rivalry between the two states before Michigan was a state, it was all over the toledo strip and Ohio was given the toledo strip and Michigan was given statehood and the upper peninsula of Michigan, which in the end MIchigan got the better deal, toledo is a crap hole full of crime and the Upper peninsula was chalk full of minerals such as copper, iron, and gold which brought the state a ton of money and toledo gave Ohio a port. I will say that the marching band truly is the best in the world.
Look at script Ohio by the Ohio State university marching band
Every home game has a new theme and sometimes they only get a week to practice
Late subscriber but, you recognized Clarck Kent going in and Superman coming out! That is RARE for people that react outside of the United States! Plus you are a football athlete, ⚽️, we just don't call it football! I played soccer in school, it is not so much strength, your CARDIO better be on point or they will kick your butt😅😅😅😅😅
Love your reaction to this Amazing band. Please check out their performances to Seasame Street, Back to the Future, Video Games, and when they performed in London at Wembly. Probably the easiest is go on CZcams and pull up The Ohio State University Marching Band! Your in for a treat with all of their performances. Enjoy watching TBDBITL.
There is nothing like Buckeye pride. If you pass me on the street and say O-H, I’m gonna say I-O. We’re friends now - never seen you before and won’t see you again, but we’re friends. O-H…I-O. Say less. We’re related.
AMAZING!!!!
superman, harry potter, jurasic park and at the end , a skull and cross bones. this was very cool.
It’s kind of sad they never show the band on television when the games are being broadcast. You gotta go to CZcams to find these.
And you should watch their pregame show where they do their famous tradition. Script Ohio
I was about to say the same thing.
I strongly suggest you check out the Texas A&M Aggie Marching Band; their performance is completely different than O.S.U., but it's outstanding. I promise!
There's a huge rivalry between Ohio & Michigan. How about University of Michigan or Michigan State marching band?
Marching band in college is a full time job. Pretty much...with studies on top!!
The dinosaur ate a Michigan player which is OSUs biggest rival
Matthew ...... it's called practice, practice, practice ......rinse and repeat.
As a fan of Ohio State's chief nemesis, "The Team Up North," (University of Michigan) I've gotta give up for the Ohio State Marching Band, lol.
Agreed! We have the last 2 wins though, that's gotta sting a little, lol.
He’s actually eating a member of the opposing team
they dont call the Ohio State marching bad "THE BEST DAMN BAND IN THE LAND" for nothing
drum major !
I watch many British reactions. You guys want BBQ and a college football game experience. Get over here and I'm sure someone can help you with those. Football is in the fall and BBQ is everyday. ❤ From Alabama
have u watched marine corps silent drill team or the old guard.?
Wolverines !
You should watch them do script Ohio
