just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
Not sure I'm clear enough here: being in time with the beat does not necessarily (in fact usually doesn't) mean playing on the beat. A good drummer will often stick the snare behind and the kick on or slightly in front of. You know what I'm talking about. And they do it consistently. We are not talking about playing robotically.
If it's not just you onstage, do we have five versions (or more) of where that point of reference is? Imagine a horn section of four where three agree on where the beat is (and on the space between beats) and one doesn't....
Also practice exercises are not performed onstage, obvs. It's about having control and the ability to make informed choices. Upgrading an attribute and associated skills. That's why we practice, right?
