What does this quote mean? (Meaning & Context)
Tommy runs by as the band is still playing on the deck. He makes a sarcastic comment about how “fancy” it is to have live music while you’re sinking. It’s a sharp way of pointing out the absurdity of the “high style” first-class lifestyle in the middle of a tragedy.
