Plucky Plucky Bo Bucky!

There are several hallowed traditions that grace the halls of Acme Looniversity. Every year, the students play the famed "Name Game" while performing a frantic dance. This toon tradition takes place in some form of fashion in every grade level. Plucky Duck has never understood the excitement because he never knew how to play the game. Because of this, Plucky has never attended a "Name Game" dance party. Every year, something would always come up that would keep him away. It was almost as if it was his destiny to never go. When he was three, and in kindergarten, his mother 'fell down the hole' and he was forced to rescue her instead of attending the game.

Tune of the Week

Brooks Wood Band

“Made For Two”

Brooks Wood Band

Featured Jul 10 – Sep 1, 2006

Drawing from elements and genres across the board, BWB captures a sound all their own. One critic once coined the BWB genre-acoustic-soulful-funkadelic-country-rock. At the end of the day, it's feel good music that will save your soul. On a bad night BWB will play one of the most solid live shows you'll witness. On a good night, they'll complete you as a human being (other species are welcome, too).

Brooks Wood - rhythm guitar & vox
