The Royalaires did a few years back and Cavaliers Anniversary Corps has a guy using a single tenor. I haven't seen a junior corps use one since the 60's.

They haven't been popular in corps-style lines for a few decades, but single tenors are used by Scottish pipe bands and southern show-style bands.

I've only seen a few schools with them, most of the show style bands I saw last season didn't have tenor drum, though 2-3 had quads.

But on have 7 snare 2 bass.... they were bad for show style.

oh, and our bands almost ran into each other marching out of the stadium

My high is a southern show style band and we are using them for the first time in 3 years. I was curious if the single tenor was still being played in modern drumlines.

Our High school band tries so hard to achieve the BD style, so naturally we are a band driven like a drum corps. which means we are using marching quads.

Have you noticed that they only use single tenors in the movie, but most of the cadences have quads in them?

Also, when he prints out the cadence, it's actually the sheet music for a cadence played earlier in the movie. Oversight?
