That usually comes with the beginning stages of learning HOW to play with a click. I hear mine,,,"I think",,but mainly, I feel the timing and then express away like there;s no tomorrow. I didn;t do that in the early stages. It was probably emotionless, as you say. Just need to do it often enough to where the emotion and epressions are fully there,,,,but in time!

Then, wen playing with a drummer that may want to surge here and there,,,,the good sense ofo sticking with the clicker has us sticking to the drummer, no matter what. With out drummer, Marnie will sometimes not use the click and experiment with stepping up the chorus one click,,from his now good sense of timing, from knowing the steady click in the first place through much time on it beforehand.

So,,,it is mostly with not using the click enough that leads to not playing with emotion with one. They just should play with all the time! Ha!!!

Thanks Matt! Good to talk with ya,
