Black Fire Percussion/Brooklyn Steppers Marching

Found some linkage for videos of this Brooklyn high school drum corps on MetaFilter. Black Fire Percussion is the drumline of the Brooklyn "Steppers" Marching Band (well worth a YouTube search on its own, btw), a division of the Brooklyn Music and Arts Program, and they are TEH AWESOME.





Some of them perform at Nets games as the New York Sticks. Here they are in an appearance on Fox 5:


SO great!

Precision marching is VERY popular here in the Midwest, especially in Chicago. There is a big tournament of area bands played every year at St Paul's Roy Wilkins Arena in down town. It typically draws a huge crowd.
