Mogey and Smush immediately forked over the cash and proceeded behind the curtain where a white duck stood looking at what appeared to be an extremely short sheet music stand. The two pals stared at Honkman expectantly.

"How cool was that?" Mogey whispered sharply to Smush as they hustled out of the little room.
"I know!" Smush replied. "Should we get back in line and go again?"
