Musical Wing

Foo just loved that this sculpture had a perfect place for him to sit. What he couldn't quite figure out was if it was built to represent music, birds or Nike. Whatever it was, Foo was glad that the artist just did it.

Nina Love

Foo always gets a little starstruck when he meets music legends, but Nina Simone was so gracious and welcoming that she even invited Foo to play with her on her cool floating keyboard.

Swamp Session

Foo is always up for a free concert, and such was the case with these gators and their Swamp Music. Naturally, being the musical Fu Dog that he is, he jumped right in and offered up his vocals to round out the song!

Hootie You Do?

Driving along, Foo saw this really wacky sculpture and decided to stop on by to check it out.
As he walked underneath it, Foo found a gigantic guitar pick celebrating Hootie and the Blow Fish, apparently local boys. Ah Hootie... Foo only wants to be with you.

Music on the Wall

Foo loved finding this fabulously musical wall. He just wishes he could play the bricks to be the best mural musician on the planet.

Harp O' the Irish

Foo really wanted to tap into his Irish blood when he saw this harp at an Irish pub. Although he tried to play it, the sound was more like tapping on glass than actual music. Ah well, maybe the strings were just too stiff.

On That Note

Foo makes music everywhere he goes. It just seeps out of everywhere and even follows him down the street.

Rock Out!

Right as Foo was leaving the sculpture park, he came across this guy who was rockin' out to his walkman. Those looked like some pretty cool headphones, but he wouldn't let Foo have a listen so he doesn't know if he was playing heavy metal or hard rock.

Magical Music Hat

Foo knows that if you dress the part, that puts you halfway toward your goal. That is why he wanted to try on this cool scat-cat hat when he visited South Austin Music. In the end, it didn’t really make him all that musical, but it did make him quite popular. He had to beat the groupies away with a stick!

Foo-Dolin Player

Foo decided against the gigantic guitar and went inside South Austin Music to find an instrument more to his speed. At the recommendation of the very help store employees, they fitted him out with this stunning mandolin. Now if he only had hands...

Tinkling the Ivories

Foo just couldn't resist the chance to play a little tune while in a music capital such as New Orleans! Sadly, the keys were a little too soft and it sounded like a sick hippo more than a piano...

Dancing in the Streets

Foo was delighted by the prevalence of fun and funky street musicians in New Orleans. Naturally one with be-bopping rhythm, Foo just loved having actual music all the time to go with his street-savvy dance moves.

Panned Piper of Orange

Foo turned a corner at the Orange Show and heard a sweet piping tune, only to find this little boy playing a panpipe and making Foo dance to the music! At least the piper wasn't trying to drive him out like a rat...

Blu Devil

Foo didn't really like the bow-bow music at Blu in Sugar Land, so he got really really angry.... so angry he made the bartop a flow of molten lava that glowed like the fiery pits of Hell. He was taken outside shortly after that to prevent further damage...

Tres Mariachis!

Foo made some new friends as always with the strolling mariachis along the riverwalk in San Antonio. They were eager and excited to get Foo-toed. They followed it up with a charming love song in Spanish. Foo wants to be a mariachi in his next life, but he first needs to learn Guantanamera.... and have opposable thumbs or lungs... hmmm maybe he should just be their mascota!
