  • NOW WITH OVER 17 MILLION VIEWS, this version of JIG 2 is the MOST VIEWED VERSION IN THE WORLD! It is actually the second version (thus why it is called "Jig 2 - Redux" or "Re-do") to be posted by me and I am not sure why it garnered more views than the original. Many say this one is the best...what do you think??
    Thanks to all the Fans of Jig 2 who have made it so great and shared it around the world! Please be sure to subscribe and hit the notification bell to get more great content!
    The Oak Mountain High School Spirit of Cahaba Drumline in Birmingham, AL performs this popular stands tune during the marching season. This year's finale performance on November 2, 2012 featured the Bass Drums doing some cool splits.

    I really really love this video. While there are many saying that this performance is choppy and not the most "amazing," I still think this video does a great job in capturing the essence of marching band and drumline. The excitement, the smiles, and just everyone having a great time. While it's not a perfect performance, it's just a high school stand tune and they have probably had better performances of it as well. I think people are missing the point and should just enjoy the video as it is.

    • @bwfitz
      @bwfitz  Před 9 lety +11

      FACADE Music Of all the hundreds of comments I have got on this, I think yours really hit the mark. That was exactly the point of sharing this. Its a group of high school kids having a fun time. It's not perfect and all those who criticize all the little things are missing the point. This was shot in the fall of 2012 and most of these kids have gone on to perform in college. Just realize what this is....a fun capture of the time they had in high school. When they play this the whole crowd gets into it and the kids have a blast. Thanks for bringing a little perspective to this.

      I know that look. That's the look of someone who wants to he on tenors but is stuck on bass. I had that look throughout high school. I bet that section leader is a bitch too. She counted off because she wanted a solo before the splits. She was the only one happy even though the splits were dirty as hell. I don't want to have to judge her that way (obviously, I don't know her) but I just get that vibe because my bass section leader did the same stuff whenever we played cadences and there was a bass feature. I feel for bass one here.

      @@Handleoriginal12 At least we were the ones that invented jig 2, also, even after listening again, I heard no mess-ups. How about you get your ears checked?

    It crazy in the solo part that they can move their wrists that fast. Great job guys!

    As a percussionist, I thought this was amazing. All these other percussionists who are insulting these amazing and talented HIGH SCHOOL students are narcissistic. Do you guys not realize how amazing this is? Do it better and post it. I dare you.
