It’s time for yet another comic strip that features LOUIE LOUIE!

This one is from the November 30, 2016 edition of Free Range by Bill Whitehead.

Believe it not, the situation described in this comic strip actually happened! Someone DID try to ban the instrumental version of this song by a marching band in 2005. This very thing took place when McCord Middle School Marching Band was was scheduled to play at the Grand Floral Parade in Benton Harbor, Michigan!
