The band played while the Titanic sank, didn't it? There had to be one guy with a trombone or something.

Yes; one of the ship's bands kept playing to the end.

Nothing else to do; help minimize panic.

Some reported the last tune played was the hymn "Nearer My God To Thee", though it might have been "Autumn Leaves", a tune from the time in the band's sheet music with the same chords which might have been mistaken for it.

I'm glad I played trombone publically three times within the day and a half before leaving town. Sound tracks are usefull.
