Remember the kids in your high school vocal jazz group who seriously thought they were god's gift to talent?
They graduated.

PARADITTLES WITH THOM YORKE
In case you were living under a rock, Thom Yorke and Johnny Greenwood of Radiohead invited USC's Trojan marching band to back them up on 15 Step for a performance at this year's Grammy's.
Here's the set-up:
And here's the final product:
USC gets a lot of shit for being packed with trust fund babies. Unfair when you consider some, not all, of the brightest musicians in the world are funneled in this very school.

FUCKIN' LASERS, BRO
Beamz is a MIDI machine controlled by lasers. NOW YOU, TOO, MAY BE A MUSICIAN!
Watch out for the guy at 0:52 ...he is lethal.

KELLY CLARINETSON
Kelly Clarkson - My Life Would Suck Without You (Clarinet Cover)
When the harmonies come in the chorus it's like a unicorn's jizzing rainbows all over me.
RIGHT LEFT RIGHT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT LEFT
My favorite part is the guy in the audience who, at the very end of the piece, goes, "...YEAH" in total agreement.
YOU KNOW YOUR MUSIC, MAN!
If you've ever been in marching band, this performance of Clapping Music by American composer Steve Reich should only bring back memories of drum line rehearsing the field show with claps at every opportune moment.
Still, though, I truly miss marching band. Shit was legit, son.
