A lighthearted silent comedy short about two bumbling musicians who can't quite keep in step with their conductor, built entirely on physical gags and musical mishaps.

Members of a municipal band, Stanley and Oliver seem to be always following someone else's lead, rather than that of the temperamental conductor.
