In the 1987 live version of Everywhere you had tears of joy when Stevie would come in early "I wanna be with you" and beat Christine to the chorus.

Yes. Yes. Yes.
I want any wall of sound to be smooth. No rough edges showing. Starting and stopping a half second off from the lead sucks. It's distracting and sloppy.
Watching Eagle's rehearsals, I'm sure Glenn had a problem with this as well, as he'd complain about hearing "too many dropoffs", when they were working on harmony singing. And The Eagles obviously trump FM.
