Plot

Pierce Profitamole

When the piñatas form a rock band, the result is less than rockin’ – until a Sour profitamole joins the group and contributes some wild sounds. The piñatas join to tame the wild musician, but when they take the sour out of the mole, he also loses his musical edge. With the big concert coming up, how can they perform without a wild lead singer?
