It's really common for concerts to be midi controlled these days. Midi control is when all the lighting and sound equipment is synchronized to a click track that the drummer is playing along to. This way the light show will match the tempo of the song and musicians only have to worry about playing while the midi system manages their sound settings. It saves a lot of hassle and coordination, but turns the concert into an extremely regimented affair.


It'd be hard to name a modern drummer that doesn't play to click track, Lars Ulrich is the only one that comes to mind.
