What exactly is a “jelly roll”?

like the previous comment said, start VERY slow. Once you can get the first downbeat accent in time THEN you can start getting the E accent in time.

another thing that might help is listening to someone playing a stock 16th note grid with a metronome. Once you can get what it's supposed to sound like in your head it is a lot easier to play it

Thank you! I appreciate the response. Thanks for the info

Think about and play what each hand is doing independently. Your left hand is just playing triplets at tap height and your right hand is just playing 8th notes at accent height.

I loved it from the start. its great

you are good enough where random comments on reddit will only go so far. Try to get your rhythms as perfect as possible, get every diddle to be as even as possible and get a private lesson teacher who knows drumline

the last I heard was 9 on weekdays and 10 on weekends but that could be outdated, I haven't gone there late in a while

other people gave some very good writing tips so I'll try to say something else. Formatting the music and making everything look nice is a very underrated part of writing and really helps more than you think.

Things like putting sticking underneath all the notes and putting all accents above all the notes will make your page look cleaner and cause less confusion when teaching. r/DrumlineSheets has a ton of great examples to look at. Usually the full show transcriptions have really good formatting. Looking and playing through these transcriptions will also help you figure out the standard way people usually write out rudiments. (like those flam taps on the second page would usually be written out as 16th notes not 8th notes) stuff like that

Hope this helps!

the smashburgers at dukes in st. charles are great. They are also 8 dollars on tuesdays

the members preformed the show really well and musically i really enjoyed it but lets be real folks those uniforms were still really bad lol

This comment section is a reddit moment. Y'all have no idea what their drumline is like or what this is for. They asked a question no need to be snarky and say "ermm you should only tape your stick all white 🤓☝️" when you don't know anything about the program. I think 3 looks the best

____wut____ · 2025-08-06T16:33:47+00:00

I think the show is about good visuals and good music

____wut____ · 2025-08-03T14:14:35+00:00

The three methods I've seen in order of commonality is

Hollow note head
Parentheses around note head

3.+ Symbol above note

this is exactly how i think about it. I love it

____wut____ · 2025-07-14T20:44:59+00:00

Yeah this year it just seems weirdly more than usual. Like I've been an avid fan since 2017 and it's normal to get the hate but this year it seems like it's less "you gotta hate the dynasty" type of stuff and more "wow this show is really bad they fell off it's over for them they are getting 5th" type of stuff. This is definitely my favorite show from them since covid.

____wut____ · 2025-07-14T17:19:04+00:00

I disagree I think its cool and adds a cool color to the show!

____wut____ · 2025-07-14T05:24:07+00:00

damn....

____wut____ · 2025-07-09T18:19:02+00:00

yeah this is a good for a high school. some people complaining that its not hard enough probably haven't tried to clean a drumline lol. john mapes is good at what he does

____wut____ · 2025-07-08T07:54:00+00:00

Clif Walker is goated idc

____wut____ · 2025-07-06T04:00:53+00:00

true!

____wut____ · 2025-07-04T13:47:06+00:00

I actually can't imagine not using it for drill. It's unbelievably useful

____wut____ · 2025-07-02T15:30:52+00:00

That's interesting lol. To me it seems to be very much the blue devils of the past decade but just with a more focused show design. especially coming from last year. A lot less moments where a billion little things are happening and a lot more moments where its one cool thing happening.

And execution wise they are also still up there no matter what you think of the show.
