Chapter 3 The One-Man Funky Groove Machine First this weird purple smoke started pouring out on the floor in the front of the music room. Then the sound of drums started pounding out of a boom box on Mr. Loring's desk. Then the lights went out and these laser beams started shooting around the music room in all

We all started clapping. Mr. Hynde

danced around awhile, and then he threw off his purple cape and started rap- ping to the beat: "Old Mr. Loring he was over the hill. So the board of education told him he would have to chill. My name is Hynde, and I'm gonna blow your mind. I ain't no music teacher, I'm a born music creature. 'Cause my daddy's name was Amos, but he never became famous.
