THE ADVENTURES OF RACE CANYON,
WHOSE NERVES OF STEEL
AND IRON WILL GIVE HIM
TROUBLE AT THE AIRPORT.
RACE, WITH THE HELP
OF HIS COMPANION, SKEETARI
MUST RETRIEVE
THE GOLDEN WHIZZER OF WACKY
FROM THE DREADED
CAVES OF THOMPSON.
YOU MADE IT THROUGH
THE LAVA PITS
THE DEADLY
RAZOR SPIKES
AND THE TREACHEROUS
MINEFIELD WITHOUT A SCRATCH.
IT WAS NOTHING,
SKEETARI.
I MUST RETRIEVE THAT WHIZZER
FOR PATRICIA.
WHOA!
SHH!
BE CAREFUL,
RACE.
IT MIGHT BE
BOOBY-TRAPPED.
HMM.
WOW!
AAH!
RACE!
PHEW! THAT WAS CLOSE.
NOW, ONLY ONE
MORE OBSTACLE
AND THE WHIZZER

BY THE WAY, WHAT IS
THE LAST OBSTACLE?
[ screams]
[ growling, then barking]
BIG DOG, REALLY BIG DOG!
[ barking]
BIG DOG

I TRIED
TO TELL YOU--
THE THOMPSONS HAVE
A DOG, LADY.
THAT'S NOT A DOG,

HOW WILL WE GE
PATTI'S WHIZZER BACK?
Skeeter:
WELL, CAN YOU SEE
WHERE IT LANDED?
NOPE.

HUH?

PATTI'S WACKY WHIZZER
SHE'LL KILL US.
LET'S MOVE
HER FROM IT.
SOUNDS GOOD, BUT HOW
ARE WE GOING TO DO THAT?
WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO, RACE?
WHAT WILL WE DO?
NOT TO WORRY, SKEETARI.
WE MUST DISTRACT THIS FOUL BEAS
TO GET TO THE WHIZZER.
AH!

SOMETHING LEF
FROM THE RACE
CANYON ADVENTURE
OF THE BOTSWANI
BUTCHER WE WERE ON.

IT WORKED, RACE, IT WORKED!
GOT IT!
WE COULDN'T AFFORD STEAK, SO WE
WENT FOR THE NEXT BEST THING.
[ barking]
OH, MAN!
[ air escaping]
OKAY, SKEET,
FORGET THE TOY FOOD.
TIME FOR THE CARRO
ON A STRING.
YOU SAID
THAT'S SALAMI.
CARROT ON
A STRING MEANS
WE'LL DANGLE THIS
IN FRONT OF LADY
WHILE YOU GE
THE WACKY WHIZZER.
COOL!

WHY DO I HAVE TO GO IN?

WE THREW I

BUT A BIG DOG
CHEWED IT UP.
WE DIDN'T MEAN IT.
YOU GUYS SHOULD HAVE
TOLD ME EARLIER.
I KNOW.
I WAS EMBARRASSED,
I GUESS.
YOU COULD HAVE HAD ANOTHER ONE.
ANOTHER ONE!?
MY DAD GETS THESE
FREE FROM WORK.
TAKE A WHOLE BOX OF THEM.
IF I HAD JUST TOLD YOU
WE WOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO GO

DOUG SKEETER,
ARE YOU OKAY?
YOO-HOO, GUYS!
[ drumming and scatting]
BANGING ON A TRASH CAN
DRUMMING ON A STREETLIGHT
YEAH!
CAN YOU KEEP IT DOWN?
Chop, tell me.
All right.
We know that
The Beets started
in that garage
in Liverpill.
My shed, right.
LOOK, DOUG,
CHOP LIPMAN!
But before that, how did Chop
Lipman get interested in music?
Well, I'd just be hitting
a bowl or a cat
and me mum would say,
"Clyde"-- my real name--
"quit hitting that cat
or I'll smack you."
So me and the guys went
into the shed
and hit stuff until
we created "Killer Tofu"
which skyrocketed us
to international celebrity,
didn't it?
And the rest
is history.
Right, isn't it?
WOW, DOUG,
THAT'S JUST LIKE US!
HEY, MAYBE
WE COULD
YEAH!
[ banging]
HEY, DO YOU MIND?
I'M ON THE PHONE.
START OUR OWN BAND!

[ snoring and mumbling]
CONNIE GOT AN "A" IN HOME EC
SO I WENT TO ASK FOR HELP
TO MAKE A BIG SUIT.
BEEBE TOLD US
ALL ABOUT IT.
IT'S SO EXCITING.
MAYBE YOU CAN HELP ME?
OH, WE'D LOVE TO BE
PART OF YOUR BAND.
WHAT? YOU THOUGHT
YOU PLAY AN INSTRUMENT?
SURE, DRUMS.
I'VE GOT THEM
IN STORAGE SOMEPLACE.
OH, BUT WE

WE ALREADY HAVE A DRUMMER.
OH.
BUT I WAIT A MINUTE.
THINK BIG.
WHAT IF WE HAD A BAND WITH TWO
DRUMMERS AND AN AUTOHARP PLAYER?
REALLY? YOU THINK?

REALLY?
IF I DO THAT,
CAN I ALSO BE IN THE BAND
PLEASE, DOUG?
I'LL TRY HARD, I REALLY WILL.
JUST LET ME PLAY WITH YOU
THIS WEEKEND

I NEEDED A BIG LIGHT SHOW.
I HAD TO THINK BIG.
OKAY, WHAT INSTRUMEN
DO YOU PLAY?
DRUMS.
AND WHEN I WANTED
SPECIAL EFFECTS
LET ME GUESS--
YOU WANT TO PLAY DRUMS.
Both:
NO, LEAD GUITAR.

OKAY, EVERYBODY,
NICE AND EASY.
SKEETER?

[ musical commotion]
STOP! STOP!
OOH!
OKAY, SO WE NEEDED
SOME PRACTICE.
BUT AFTER A WHILE, OUR BAND
STARTED COMING TOGETHER.
DOUG DOUG!
WOULD THIS BE
A GOOD PLACE
FOR A DRUM SOLO?
WE HAD TWO DRUM SOLOS, ELMO.
LINCOLN SOLOED
BUT I'VE PLAYED MORE YEARS.
BEEBE SOLOED AND SHE'S TERRIBLE.
THE LIGHTS
WERE IN MY EYES!
WE ONLY HAVE
15 MINUTES BETWEEN SETS.
EVERYBODY CAN'T HAVE A SOLO.
[ everyone groans]
OKAY, EVERYBODY GETS A SOLO.
WE WERE BIG, ALL RIGHT.
I WAS JUST HOPING IT WOULD
ALL COME TOGETHER THE NEXT DAY.
WE WERE PLAYING AT A PARTY.
THE OTHER BAND WAS FINISHING
THEIR FIRST SET.
OH, IT'S YOU.
PLEASE GO TO THE
BACK OF THE HOUSE.
[ laughing and carnival music]
BUT THIS IS A
A BIRTHDAY PARTY--
COOL!
IT'S ALL YOURS, KID.
OKAY, JUST REMEMBER
THIS IS OUR BIG CHANCE.
NOW, LET'S BLOW THESE KIDS
OUT OF THE WATER.
WE SNAPPED INTO ACTION

IF THIS IS WHAT I HAD
TO DO TO BE FAMOUS
[ song winds down]
AMAZING! THAT WAS
SO RADICAL, BEEB.
I GUESS THE BIG GUY
NEVER SHOWED UP.
I DON'T KNOW IF
THINKING BIG WAS FOR US.
OH, DOUG,
SKEETER!
THIS IS JIMMY SPACKLE.
GLAD TO MEET YOU.
POWERFUL STUFF.
YOU? YOU'RE SPACKLE?
HE'S THE GUY FROM
THE RECORD STORE.
I WANT TO GO TALK TO
THOSE GUITAR PLAYERS.
THEY WERE WAY RADICAL.
"I HAVE A FRIEND
IN THE RECORD BUSINESS"?
COULD YOU
EXCUSE US?
I NEED TO TALK
TO DOUG.
COOL! I'LL GO
GET SOME CAKE.
WHAT IS IT,
BEEBE?
I HAVE
SOME BAD NEWS.
WHAT?
YOU'RE OU
OF THE BAND.
[ weakly]:
WHAT? OH NO, REALLY?
JIMMY LIKES
THE BANJO.
HE JUS
DOESN'T THINK
IT FITS WITH
ROCK 'N' ROLL.
DON'T YOU PLAY ANY
OTHER INSTRUMENTS?
DRUMS.
JIMMY THOUGHT WE NEEDED
ANOTHER DRUMMER.
NO, I'M KIDDING.
[ sighs]
I GUESS YOU GUYS
WILL JUST HAVE TO
GET ON WITHOUT ME.
OH, I'M GLAD YOU'RE
TAKING THIS SO WELL, DOUG.
I WAS LUCKY TO GET OUT
WHEN I DID.
SPACKLE GOT THEM ANOTHER JOB

I COULDN'T SLEEP.
I JUST KEPT GETTING IDEAS.
IDEA: GET BIG SUIT.
[ snoring and mumbling]
CONNIE GOT AN "A" IN HOME EC
SO I WENT TO ASK FOR HELP
TO MAKE A BIG SUIT.
BEEBE TOLD US
ALL ABOUT IT.
IT'S SO EXCITING.
MAYBE YOU CAN HELP ME?
OH, WE'D LOVE TO BE
PART OF YOUR BAND.
WHAT? YOU THOUGHT
YOU PLAY AN INSTRUMENT?
SURE, DRUMS.
I'VE GOT THEM
IN STORAGE SOMEPLACE.
OH, BUT WE
AND I HAVE AN AUTOHARP.
WE ALREADY HAVE A DRUMMER.
OH.
BUT I WAIT A MINUTE.
THINK BIG.
WHAT IF WE HAD A BAND WITH TWO
DRUMMERS AND AN AUTOHARP PLAYER?
REALLY? YOU THINK?
OH, DOUG, THANK YOU.
THIS WILL BE SO GREAT.
I'LL DO A LIGHT SHOW
FOR YOUR BAND.
REALLY?
IF I DO THAT,
CAN I ALSO BE IN THE BAND
PLEASE, DOUG?
I'LL TRY HARD, I REALLY WILL.
JUST LET ME PLAY WITH YOU
THIS WEEKEND
AND I'LL DO THE LIGHT SHOW.
I NEEDED A BIG LIGHT SHOW.
I HAD TO THINK BIG.
OKAY, WHAT INSTRUMEN
DO YOU PLAY?
DRUMS.
AND WHEN I WANTED
SPECIAL EFFECTS
LET ME GUESS--
YOU WANT TO PLAY DRUMS.
Both:
NO, LEAD GUITAR.
[ imitating twangy

WE WEREN'T JUST GOING TO BE BIG,
WE WERE GOING TO BE HUGE!
OKAY, EVERYBODY,
NICE AND EASY.
SKEETER?
ONE, TWO, THREE, FOUR.
[ musical commotion]
STOP! STOP!
OOH!
OKAY, SO WE NEEDED
SOME PRACTICE.
BUT AFTER A WHILE, OUR BAND
STARTED COMING TOGETHER.
DOUG DOUG!
WOULD THIS BE
A GOOD PLACE
FOR A DRUM SOLO?
WE HAD TWO DRUM SOLOS, ELMO.
LINCOLN SOLOED
BUT I'VE PLAYED MORE YEARS.
BEEBE SOLOED AND SHE'S TERRIBLE.
THE LIGHTS
WERE IN MY EYES!
WE ONLY HAVE
15 MINUTES BETWEEN SETS.
EVERYBODY CAN'T HAVE A SOLO.
[ everyone groans]
OKAY, EVERYBODY GETS A SOLO.
WE WERE BIG, ALL RIGHT.
I WAS JUST HOPING IT WOULD
ALL COME TOGETHER THE NEXT DAY.
WE WERE PLAYING AT A PARTY.
THE OTHER BAND WAS FINISHING
THEIR FIRST SET.
OH, IT'S YOU.
PLEASE GO TO THE
BACK OF THE HOUSE.
[ laughing and carnival music]
BUT THIS IS A
A BIRTHDAY PARTY--
COOL!
IT'S ALL YOURS, KID.
OKAY, JUST REMEMBER
THIS IS OUR BIG CHANCE.
NOW, LET'S BLOW THESE KIDS
OUT OF THE WATER.
WE SNAPPED INTO ACTION
AND SOON WE WERE READY TO PLAY.

IF THIS IS WHAT I HAD
TO DO TO BE FAMOUS
[ song winds down]
AMAZING! THAT WAS
SO RADICAL, BEEB.
I GUESS THE BIG GUY
NEVER SHOWED UP.
I DON'T KNOW IF
THINKING BIG WAS FOR US.
OH, DOUG,
SKEETER!
THIS IS JIMMY SPACKLE.
GLAD TO MEET YOU.
POWERFUL STUFF.
YOU? YOU'RE SPACKLE?
HE'S THE GUY FROM
THE RECORD STORE.
I WANT TO GO TALK TO
THOSE GUITAR PLAYERS.
THEY WERE WAY RADICAL.
"I HAVE A FRIEND
IN THE RECORD BUSINESS"?
COULD YOU
EXCUSE US?
I NEED TO TALK
TO DOUG.
COOL! I'LL GO
GET SOME CAKE.
WHAT IS IT,
BEEBE?
I HAVE
SOME BAD NEWS.
WHAT?
YOU'RE OU
OF THE BAND.
[ weakly]:
WHAT? OH NO, REALLY?
JIMMY LIKES
THE BANJO.
HE JUS
DOESN'T THINK
IT FITS WITH
ROCK 'N' ROLL.
DON'T YOU PLAY ANY
OTHER INSTRUMENTS?
DRUMS.
JIMMY THOUGHT WE NEEDED
ANOTHER DRUMMER.
NO, I'M KIDDING.
[ sighs]
I GUESS YOU GUYS
WILL JUST HAVE TO
GET ON WITHOUT ME.
OH, I'M GLAD YOU'RE
TAKING THIS SO WELL, DOUG.
I WAS LUCKY TO GET OUT
WHEN I DID.
SPACKLE GOT THEM ANOTHER JOB
BEFORE THEY BROKE UP
AT THE YODELING SOCIETY
CAKEWALK JAMBOREE.
[ angry commotion]
[ clamor of voices]

MEANWHILE, SKEETER AND I DECIDED
