I have always been intrigued by the fact that the night the Titanic sank the musicians on the upper deck continued to play as that mighty ship sank. In many ways music is a cultural marker. A song can define a generation, a war, an idea and those brave gentlemen chose to give what solace they could with the simple tools of their trade.
Could there be a more noble act?

One of the more touching parts portrayed in the movie. Music is such a powerful tool, for good and bad. I love music, what would life be like without it, eh?
I suggest a blanket ban on all music, until it can be safely distributed to all of mankind.
