When ur in a band the drummer keeps the beat anyway so why bother getting worried bout timing.

and what if the drummer is not precise? if you play to some noodling drummer all the time you might be on his rythm, but what happens when you get yourself involved in a studio situation? you HAVE to play to a click then. and when you are not used to it, it will get you in trouble. plus almost all of the realy good and experienced studio and live musicians are as precise as a metronome - and why? because they practiced to a metronome!
