Craig O'Reilly is given a piano for his thirteenth birthday. But this piano is bad - it smokes, it drinks, it eats the family cat! It kills the school bully, Famous Fahey. And when Craig, making his stage debut with the High School rock band, The Banshees, decides to use an electric organ rather than the piano, it gets MAD!
