“My brief, imaginary career as a punk rock drummer is now officially over.”(72)
Troy wants to be in a big band with Curt. Troy wants Curt to play the guitar since he already does and Curt wants to teach Troy how to play the drums. They want to be in a band together so they can play in the dump in front of hundreds of people cheering for them wanting them to play more songs. Troy and Curt start listening to old records like the Beatles and Smack Metal Puppets so they can get familiar to the music and the way everything works in a band. They had it all planned out until Troy got in trouble with his father and wanted to quit. I picked this quote because it’s a positive side of Troy’s personality, to want to try to do something.
