I agree. Much as I dislike Metallica, I have to admit, my respect for James, Kirk, and especially Robert went up dramatically after I realised how badly handicapped they are by such a horrible timekeeper. The fact that all three of them can keep soldiering on, and can still sound reasonably good and coherent live, is astonishing, given the total yutz on the skins who looks like he is in Special Needs, and sounds like he is having a spaz attack.

Do they have a click track on their monitor and just ignore Lars, who is just playing along rather than leading the band?
Look at the issues Iron Maiden had on the recent tour with Wasted Years, as Adrian Smith could no longer 100% rely on Nicko McBrain’s timing during his solo.
At Metallica, they’re used to play to the drums that are totally off.
