Synopsis: A promotional video by the acclaimed claymation animator for this John Fogerty solo follows the exploits of a break dancer and his pickpocket pig.

Cartoon Cat: At the start of the short a group of people are gathered on the street waiting. One person is tapping his foot to a rhythm. Unfortunately a tabby cat is sitting at the man’s feet and having his tail stepped upon with every tap, letting out a Poor Cat Screech each time for good measure.
