Well, dog my cat. I sure did not know about this trick. I can think of some songs where I will be happier without the opening accents.

I tried a new age style and now I hear what you are taking about. I changed the first measure as "C.bpgs, C" which has the drums sit out on beat 1. Worked pretty well, actually, on a couple slow songs.
