Michael Dafferner is a satellite engineer struggling with the mundane existence of working a nine-to-five job. During his off hours he plays in a “math-core” metal band called Car Bomb. In 2007 Car Bomb ventures out on its first U.S. tour. It is during this tour that Michael questions his band mates, and the other band they are touring with, to find out why they are putting so much effort into something that has so little reward. He also interviews a co-worker to find out what the people at his work think of his off-hours hobby.
