Way back when. Poor Marten, he is a tertiary-educated music nerd, and his band-mates... aren't.

Oh, yeah, now I remember.
aaaannnnd... off on another archives expedition...
If no one sees me by Wednesday, send in a search party :-D
WAYF:
I wonder if some of those things that Marten's playing, aside from "Enter Sandman" obviously, are Marten's and by extension Jeph's own compositions. Some of them look like they'd be really fun to play!
... not that I can play guitar, sadly.
snubnose:
Uh.
So why is it bad to be in a "Metallica cover band" ?
Not that I would like Metallica much or anything.
Method of Madness:
Hanners will not sleep with one eye open, nor will she grip her pillow tight, for both are inefficient things to do while sleeping. As for the sandman, sand is full of germs.
Welu:
Marten's expressed a couple times his desire to make a living off of music:

http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1292 <- This is the big one I always think of when Marten's goals discussions comes up.
I think his goal is good. He wants to make a living doing something he enjoys and right now he has a job that gives him enough to get by, have a little bit of money leftover (I'm guessing, since Marten doesn't seem to be struggling) and it leaves him with enough time to work on what he really wants.
Going to college or going to job interviews would involve having to quit or miss work which he (and Faye since she needs help paying rent and bills) can't afford to do. As others have said, if his goal involved needing a higher education then he should try to go for that but since it doesn't, he's pretty much got the ideal set-up.
These two comics haven't shown much enthusiasm working with Amir and Hanners though. Maybe just because they're so excited. Once they're settled it'll hopefully pick up. A plotline looking for another guitarist or singer could be fun. Although they've got this far without a singer, I wonder if it'd even come up.
Got a major deja-vu while writing this post. Think I had a future-prediction-dream where I wrote these exact sentences.
