I'm having tempo issues with the start of songs only... the tempo I click in and what I end up playing aren't matching! Sometimes fast, sometimes slow... but once I'm playing, I'm good at holding tempo consistently.
Any tips on improving? I already practice a lot with gapped click (can go 4-8 measures at a wide range of tempos), but I don't feel like this is addressing my hands -> kit transition.
I started a new drill where I would count off for 2 measures, then play for 2 bars without click and then have the click come back in, and it's all over the place; confirming my problem. But I don't feel like this exercise is helping me get better as much as it ends up with me 'guessing'.
