Drudged up from the subconscious comes a dream about a civil war submarine sunk during a battle in the sea off a coast somewhere in the south. The main character slowly descends into the depths. He hears the sounds of an old time string band coming from the sunken ship. The music distorted through the coal black waters. The engine still breathes life into the submarine and the band plays on and on. Thus the title Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot.
