Mike Rowe Gets SCHOOLED in the Art of Drumlines and Dancing | FULL EPISODE | Somebody's Gotta Do It 

This is literally what we need more of in EVERY community...

Australia has town's like these. Drugs alcohol and crime.. then 8n one town. A indigenous elder said i have had enough. So he gathered the town's people together. And said instead of wasting money on alcohol and cigarettes. Let's have a working bee. And repair and paint all the houses.. the kids joined in because they could choose the colors. Within 2 years. The town won the tidiest town in Australia.. and crime had dropped 90%..

What a talented group of kids, with a dedicated and loving coach. I wish them all the best. I've always loved drumlines, and the special way that they dance and move. Very cool. Go Cobras!!

GOD BLESS THESE MEN !!! Thanks for showing these kids talents Mike they truly deserve it !

This really moved me. Been watching Mike for years now. It's never lost on me how well he interviews people, communicates with them. Regardless of their ethnic background, social status, gender, race, age etc. he AlWAYS finds a way to connect- human to human. It's really quite beautiful.

I'd watch Mike Rowe do underwater basket weaving at this point.

This is great this is discipline. I’m a United States Marine, and a colorguard is the best thing that I can think of to associate with these great young kids great job.

I’m only 1 minute into this video and I’m already overcome with emotion. At the time of this posting I have not yet watched in full, but I anticipate the remainder will prove very powerful indeed. Without knowing what is about to be said, I can testify that marching band is where I learned the importance of professionalism, tradition, dignity, commitment to a cause, overcoming adversity, loyalty, work ethic, the power of vision, precision, physicality, artistry and technique. All are tools I continue to use professionally to this very day. These kids are absolutely glowing and I think I know why.

These kids have found father/grandfather figures that they desire to follow. These men seem strong in character & morals enough to be what the kids NEED- to give direction, confidence, character, dicipline, & give a sense of positivity for their futures.

Willy, Don, and the bishop what humble beautiful people! Wonderful guys doing wonderful things! This old ranger salutes you! RESPECT!!!

Sick drum line. Hats off to KC Cobras. Ya'll are legends.

The discipline aspect is fantastic and really demonstrates their dedication and respect for what they're doing. A perspective very revitalizing in this day and age.

Don, Willie and Bishop Tolbert, mad respect for you three. Keep doing what you're doing, saving kids, saving families.

"These kids learn differently, but make NO MISTAKE, they learn" 💜💜💜

Mr. Willie took Each one Teach one to a whole nother level. Respect!

This literally brought a tear to my eye and a catch in my breath when he mentioned that anyone who's been a Cobra can come back at any time and rejoin them and march or drum again. That they always have "a seat at the table". This is something a lot of people dream of, a Brotherhood (Sisterhood, Family) that will always have your back, because blood family can be unreliable sometimes, and they can be small, thus fading away to Life and Death as the years go by, but a Brotherhood (Sisterhood, Family) lasts forever, because they are much much larger and constantly growing. Blood family can, for some people, consist of only a mother & father (single child marries a single child and they have a single child), and once they pass, the "child" is alone in the World. It's a lonely place to be. It's why the Brotherhood of Fraternities and Sisterhood of Sororities are so popular; why cops and firefighters become tight families; and why gangs are such a big thing. If they can give these people a Family that grows and is always there for them, these kids can do anything, be anything, because they have the power of belonging and unconditional Love behind them. These Families are always on your side. They'll fight for you first and ask questions later.

They sure make this Missouri girl proud!!! We’re the Show Me state and y’all sure showed ‘em!!💜

People can learn a lot of humility from this group. Respect!

This is Genuine, heart warming content right here.

Some people, you can just SEE their heart - they radiate love and grace. Willie is one of those people ❤

Couldn't help bringing some moisture to my eyes! Thanks Mike and the production crew!!!

The drummers are outrageously good!

Thank you, Mr. Rowe, this is the most uplifting video I've seen in a long time! This is an antidote for our country's ills. God Bless.

10,000 kids! I got chills. Awesome program

Crying for joy. This is what life is all about.

" Hey- - I dont mind sirens." What a GREAT MAN Mike Rowe is as a Celebrity.

Go marching Cobras! Sure wish I could have gotten involved in a team like this when I was a foster kid. They all should be proud. Thanks Mike for bringing them to us!

Positive influence, we need more of that in our nation.

I grew in Baltimore city (born in 1983), down by the inner harbor. I’m very thankful for having the boys & girls club, and other rec centers. I believe it kept me out of trouble because I always had a place to go. A place to spend time having fun with other kids. These days it’s hard to find a open rec center. There are organizations you can pay to play for but not everyone has the extra money to spend, or a car to get them there.

Mike is such a class act. Americans are so luck that we have him on our side

Thank you Mike for putting such people and groups out there as a positive example.

The most valuable and important message I get from your shows is....There are still good, decent, energetic, positive, hard-working, caring, dedicated, solid people in this Country. If you watch the news, you start to think people like that don't exist anymore. This little show of yours shows us that, at heart, Americans are still good. It restores my faith in mankind. It gives me reason to hope that the country I am leaving to my great grandkids has a chance. Thank you, Mike. ❤❤

I moved to KC,MO in 1975 and left in 1988. I remember seeing the Cobras in parades and it blew me away on how talented those kids are and were perfect in every way. I'm sure I saw Willie and Don but had no idea who they were. I know exactly where 3400 Tracy is and it was drug infested even back then. Great! to see kids doing something besides selling drugs in that part of the hood. Kudos to all the Cobras and all their mentors! and Mike for doing this video.

Simply beautiful! The perfect mixture of pride and love. . .

Bless the people who take time to invest in kids, especially in rough areas or less fortunate. It makes a massive difference in their lives and the communities they live in.

This is one of the coolest and most wholesome things I've seen all year

Those children are learning responsibility, discipline and hard work. I bet every one of those children love the hard work it is taking to be a part of the Marching Cobras.

Celebrating greatness Mike Rowe, we appreciate you!

3 lives invest in 10,000 lives. God bless those men!

I sincerely smiled the whole way through this. What a fantastic group of kids. Huge thumbs up to Don and Willie for their continued faith in these kids. Just brilliant. Thanks Mike for showing us the mighty Cobras.

Makes my heart soar! Love this spirit, this love!!

One of the most incredible things I have seen.

Thanks Mike, this is beautiful. It benefits each child and also each community they visit. Go Cobras!

Amazing story! I wish here in Australia, in the cities, we had people with so much passion and love for their community and kids that there were organisations like this, to give kids a sense of belonging. And Mike...you never disapoint!! Thanks for such an uplifting story! Peace and Love from Australia

What an awesome program. Wish more people would take and put this much effort into their communities.

A great organization, and a credit to the founders and coaches

idk who's idea it was to put these on youtube instead of TV but they deserve a promotion.

That was awesome. I love it when people give back to the community.

With So Much Doom & Gloom around THIS Does My Soul Good!

This makes me proud to be from Kansas City!!

God bless Don his team and especially these children

this is what kids need these days to keep them out of trouble. cities should be funding programs like this. these kids have a much better aspect on the future than other kids thanks to these dedicated people who run it. and they look like they have alot of fun.

This is one of the few videos where I wish I could give extra thumbs-up.

As an American in general, its good to see this positivity in the black community it desperately needs. There is a whole band of kids that have a better outlook in life because of this one man. We need more of these types of men.

They are all awesome . Full hearts..that's the way!!! 💖🤗💖🤗💖🤗💖🤗

I believe this is the best episode so far. I'm an Okie that lived in the rough part of Springfield Mo. for several years. I was a Boy scout leader while I was there and I know what the reward these fine gentlemen are taking about. Seeing a young person succeed despite adversity is worth every hour, every dollar, and every heartache spent.

So many truly beautiful people who look beyond themselves to help others. Just ❤❤❤❤ them all!!

So wonderful! “Where you been all my life”. My grandpa used to always say that to me. 🤗

Mike's awesome 💞

I’ve really been enjoying this series. Truly shows the work ethic that has become your mantra!

Awesomeness!

What a way to burn off stress! Keep working for the good. God Bless!

That building needs a beautiful giant mural in front and all around it!! Bright and colorful 🐍 cobra with their motto. This is what Chicago needs ten fold!! I believe this works just like “El Sistema” worked in Venezuela from which Dudamel and other greats have risen.. music is the answer

God bless this man need more great people like him

I almost didn't watch this episode, I am so glad I did!

Clubs like this to make those kids turn into great adults is so amazing!

What a wonderful, uplifting story! Great for the kids!!!

This is awesome ! The Cobra's rock !!

Ad-lib drumming is a natural skill ( my dad has it) but learning to read music teaches so much to young people. i was in a drum line in high school and we dreamed of doing stuff like this! glad these kids are doing somethiing that will make their lives better!

This makes me proud to be an American. I am really impressed by these special kids.

Great role models and very talented young men and women!!! Love this

Just like others have said, a positive group, discipline, and a true sense of a actual accomplishment does more to help young people escape the pitfalls of poverty and find the inner strength to become positive influences in their families, neighborhoods and society at large!!!! I love this group!

Thank you Cobras > I'm feeling a renewed sense of Hope...

I look forward to anything you upload sir, thank you for continuing to do this!

Mike Rowe should be in the next National Treasure sequel

I've been binging trough your stuff. This one hit home and made a grown man cry. Bless you, for making this content.

❤ I have deep love for this group and especially the “hit-it-2-3-4” step. 🐍

I wish, I wish, I wish, this was what news organizations covered. Beautiful. Positive. Beneficial.

Thank you for uploading another video. These have been really nice to watch. My dad and I always used to watch dirty jobs growing up and idk it’s just nostalgic and just nice watchin this show. Mikes personality is always so awesome

Inspirational young people, and some older ones too. Appreciate yall for all u give

I love this. Being in band myself this is a great way to mentor and keep kids off the streets!

Being a master barber 💈 for 30+ years, I love this Hair Museum episode...it was hilarious 🤣 😆 😂 💀

God bless Don and Mike, and others like them.

Why do we not see more of the best of the USA, but only the worst. Thank You Mike, From a Old USN Squid, Regards

Those kids got it going on! Great episode!

Such healthy, beautiful and well-behaved children. This is a piece of the old America. Love it!

We need more great people like don

i love your uplifting content. thank you🤟

God bless the men who cared about the kids to create this program. God bless the kids who participate! This is wonderful derful,,!

1. FANTASTIC KIDS! AMAZING DON! 2. Gotta love Mike Rowe.

What a great spotlight of a great organization. Kudos to these men.

Mike, best jobs ever! I'm so glad that I came across this channel. Keep up the great job!!

Absolutely loved this episode. So pure.

Very impressive and such a great experience for the kids and the adults as well. Great stuff!

Mike, keep doing what you do. Love your show and happy to see you back at it. This... Was a great episode. That children look so happy and the leaders all are doing a great job with those young minds. I would love to see more of this kind of stuff. But, in general, all your shows are like this. Talking to us all with respect. I have noticed that no matter how frustrating the jobs are that you are looking at, you are always respectful of those people who do these things day in and day out. That is why I love watching your shows. And hey, Somebody's Gotta Do It, so why not you? Thank you!

Programs like this definitely need more attention. If we can help offer an alternative future for our troubled youth that happened to be born and raised in a bad part of the city (the ghetto, crime ridden ugly parts of town) I think that organisations like the Marching Cobras is a very good investment by my tax dollars. I wish more of our "elected" officials would visit places like this in the worst parts of the city/state they supposedly represent. The only way to get people that actually represent a community is to get out and vote every single chance you get. Talk about the person's and policies they align with to all of your friends and encourage them to vote. You can make a difference in this country simply by learning, talking, and voting.

Keep up the great work Mike..you are an inspiration to all👍 Canadian fan Larry

Thank you for such an amazing uplifting story. Bless these angels

This was a great story. Thank you!

A beautiful story. Very inspirational. This is what the United States is all about. Education, hard work, dedication and opportunity is the formula for success. These young people understand. Thanks for sharing.
