VIDEO: Texas high school students play drums blindfolded

[FiveStarHobo]

I just played the drum kit for about half an hour blindfolded and let me tell you I played so much better than normal than when I'm not worrying about what I'm seeing and just feeling the music

[TobleroneTobi]

i cant stop playing this video its soooo amazing

[treasurebertrand]

They killed it that was amazing i can't stop watching this amazing drums playing i will watch it all over again u go boys show your stuff

[JamesTrumpet]

If anyone is wondering, this cadence is called “jig 2”

[boredaf]

playing blindfolded is much easier if you have muscle memory, i dont think people realise how easy it is

[CoolerStar-lzjr]

It is funny, to other people that don't play the tenors think it's incredible to play blind folded/ with eyes closed, but once you play enough, you know where the drum is and don't need to constantly look down to know what you are playing. So in reality, you almost are always playing blind folded.

This is how you learn to know your drums. Exercise, practicing,

[mitchkorte]

This is the kind of thing I wish I could do probs to these guys for their dedication. Yall are crazy good

[lucasstevens]

I've had to play upside down on the snare and tenor, it's fun, but it makes your head hurt

[xflashrulesx]

I swear every marching drumline has played Jig 2, or has their own version. Like our school did jig 2 but with 2 solos. A tenor solo, and the bass drums also did one.

All these kids are insanely talented and I mean this in the best way possible, I could do none of this blindfolded or not, but did anyone else think that it may honestly be easier blindfolded after awhile? 🤔 🤣

I don't play tenors, but at my school they never look at their drums anyways, they look up.

[MajaVuEdits]

The last part where they all play was satisfying.

Muscle memory when you Play a instrument Muscle memory is a skill you are getting

I CAN'T EVEN ESCAPE JIG 2 ON YOUTUBE

[coletron]

Snares need to work on playing together

[zacharylebak]

Tell me how I knew it was going to be Jig 2 before I even clicked on the video? Oh wait...it's a popular video with tenors and on a news youtube channel

[windowsvistasuxalot]

[alejandromata]

I'm going to join band and get drums

[Zadlyn]
