I always struggle with this - I want our band to be tight as a drum, but we run the risk of getting sterile. Last night's practice was sort of an epiphanous moment - some people want to see a "live" band - improv'd solos, changes in the set, etc, me included. I don't want to see a click-track-near-cd-perfection version of the song, i want to see them play the song with all the little changes that happen.
