  • This is a formerly top secret drum troop from Switzerland that made this debut performance at the 2003 Edinburgh Tattoo. They do not do this for a living but rather just for the fun of it.

    From the Middle Ages up until after the battle of Blenheim, side (snare) drummers throughout Europe were called 'Schwaschers'...because the Swiss were regarded as the Masters of the instrument. Just one of of those historical coincidences that send a shiver down your spine....

      That's really interesting! I wondered if there was a cultural/historical connection with Swiss and drums. Now I see.

    Those guys are like a Swiss clock: synchronized, precise, perfect.

    Even as someone who has marched drill like what they're doing around halfway thru in the circle with the slowly increasing double stroke roll, those camera cuts made me wanna throw up....

    Thanks for this video. They get better year by year. I saw another vid from 2004 where they only had 8 snares, but this says 2003 & they had 12. Just curious, maybe had a man shortage in 2004 Rotterdam /#/ watch?xl=xl_blazer&v= 1cTgZUAIEGk&bmb=1

    Eversince when did doing other rudiments determined a good show - .- ........ I'd rather keep comments like these urself then saying it out to others. Rythm X is awesome it's just that u shouldnt say bad things about other peopls show. Unless ur superior at drumming then them.

    Great show - shoddy producer, no wait a bit ... actually crappy producer. Constantly cross-cutting between close-ups of a tattoo-performance?

  • @ArtemisScribe
    @ArtemisScribe Před 11 lety +1

    i hate it when an audience claps and cheers through a performance, save it til the end, as both a performer and an audience member i find nothing more distracting, rude or annoying.
