A lighthearted 1980s comedy romp built on absurd encounters and physical humor as a drummer navigates wedding chaos and eccentric characters.

John Bourgignon, a drummer-chauffeur engaged to the daughter of a United States senator, encounters a sleazy film director, the leader of an aerobics cult, and other crazed characters in the days leading up to his wedding.
