That kind of tuba is called

All:
good morning, mr. Grouper.

- Well, good morning,
everyone.

- I'm marching like
in the marching band I saw.

Both: oh.

- I like marching bands.

- Me too.

- They had a trumpet
and drums.

- Did they have a piano?

- I didn't see a piano.

- Marching bands use instruments
that they can carry

So they can march and play music
at the same time.

- What kinds of instruments,
mr. Grouper?

- Let's think
about some instruments

That you see
in a marching band.

Marching bands
march to a beat,

And they keep the beat
by banging on a...

- [Plays steady rhythm]

- Drum.

- That's right,
a drum.

And a marching band instrument

That you blow into
is called a...

- [Plays bubble guppiestheme]

- Trumpet.

- A trumpet.

And a really big
marching band instrument

That you blow into
is called a...

- [Plays bubble guppiestheme]

- Tuba.

- That's right.

And a tuba you march with
is called a sousaphone.

a marching band.

- I like to march to the beat.

Come with me
to the marching mart.

Hiya.

- How may I help you,
marching band enthusiast?

- Well, I'm looking
for an instrument

That will help me keep the beat
when I march.

- What you need
is a percussion instrument.

- Percussion?

- A percussion instrument
makes music when you bang on it.

Right this way.

Take these, for example.

- I don't think you bang
on all of these instruments.

- Hmm.

- Which one of these instruments
do you bang on,

A guitar, a drum,
or a trumpet?

Both:
the drum.

- Right.

You strum a guitar
and blow into a trumpet,

But you can bang on the drum.

- Of course.

The drum
is the percussion instrument.

Give me a beat, drummer boy.

- [Plays steady rhythm]

It's easy to march when you have
a percussion instrument.

Thanks.

- You're welcome.

Welcome to the marching mart.

What can I get for you?

- I'd like an instrument
that sounds like this.

♪ Doo doo doo-doo

♪ Doo doo doo-doo

- I think you want
a wind instrument.

You blow in one end,

And the sound
comes out the other.

Which one would you like?

- Hmm, I don't know.

Which one of these
is a wind instrument,

The trumpet, the xylophone,
or the cymbals?

Both:
the trumpet.

- Of course.

You blow into a trumpet
to play the melody.

A-one, two, three, four!

Both:

- I think we need

- What's a conductor?

- The conductor
tells the marching band

When and where to march.

- You can be the conductor,
nonny.

- But you're going
to need this.

- What's that?

- It's a whistle.

The conductor uses a whistle
to lead the marching band.

When I blow the whistle,

Everybody start playing
and marching.

[Blows whistle]

[Uncoordinated playing]

It's not working,

- Well, there are

When and where to march

start to play their music

When the conductor blows a...

- I'm a cowhand.

- Me too.

- That means we take care
of cows.

Both:
yee-haw!

- Once upon a time...

There were two cowhands.

- We got to march these cows
to the cattle ranch, partner.

- Okay, partner.

Uh-oh.

- What's wrong?

- It says here
that the marching bandit

Is on the loose again.

- I hope he doesn't try
to steal our cows.

Let's get to the cattle ranch
so the cows will be safe.

- So the cowhands marched
their cows to the cattle ranch.

- I sure hope we don't run
into that old marching bandit.

- Me too.

- Howdy, partners.

Both:
the marching bandit!

- Hand over the drum,
little lady.

Now, you stay right there
while I steal your cows.

- Oh, no!

He's stealing our cows.

- Ah, rattlesnakes!

- So long, partners.

- Now what do we do?

- We've got to get
our cows back.

- So the cowhands
went into the hills

To get back their cows.

- What are we going to do?

- We'll wait for him
to fall asleep.

Then we'll take
our drum back.

- [Yawns]

Reckon it's time
for my nap.

[Snoring]

- Now's our chance, partner.

Come on!

- [Snoring]

- What about our drum?

- We'll have to figure out
something else.

We're going to have
to keep the beat by clapping.

Clap with us
to keep the beat.

One, two...

Both:
three, four.

One, two,

Three, four.

One, two, three.

- Hey, you all come back now!

- Oh, no, we have
to get out of here!

Clap faster.

One, two,

Three, four.

One, two,

Three, four.

- I'ma get you cowhands!

Both:
clap faster.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

The cattle ranch!

Let's get the cows inside
where they'll be safe.

There.

The marching bandit
can't get our cows now.

Hey, where is he?

- Rattlesnakes!

- Look!

[Rattling]

- Don't move,
marching bandit.

We'll get you out of there.

- Well, hurry up,

'Cause then I'm gonna get you.

- Well, that doesn't seem
very nice.

- Hey, molly, look.

There's the jail.

- Let's march him straight
into jail so he can't get us.

- Hurry up, slowpokes.

- Help us march the bandit
away from the rattlesnakes

And right into jail.

Both:
one, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four.

- Can I open my eyes yet?

Both:
not yet.

[Door creaks shut]

Both:
we did it.

- Hey, let me out of here.

- No way.

You stole our drum
and our cows.

- Boo-hoo-hoo!

Please let me out of jail.

I'll give them back.

- You promise?

- I promise.

Here you go.

Both:
yee-haw!

- And so the cowhands
and the marching bandit

Became friends,

And they marched
happily ever after.

- Hooray!
- Yay!

- All right!
- Yay!

- One, two, three, four.

I love marching.

Hi, gil.

Are you still having trouble
with your tuba?

- Yeah, I'm playing it right,

But I'm pretty sure there's
