Similar situation here. My high school band was playing Ive's Country Band March at a contest in Gattlenburg TN. Our conductor missed, I think it was, the second 3/8 bar and got lost for a few bars. About half the band stopped, while the rest tried to hold it together (I think I was one of 2 tubas that kept track, or tried atleast). The band got it back, then the conductor found where we were. He later told us that he was about to cut us off, apologize to the judges, and restart before he found his spot. Man, those few bars felt like an eternity.
Needles to say we one first place in our division (AAAA i think, I just remember there where a bunch of A's)

That was one of my best band trips
