I believe that all of the drummers had ear-pieces as did many of the other performers. The drummers probably had a click track as something like that being performed by 2,008 performers would be neigh impossible to keep so tight without some sort of guide track.

Many other other performers also (I believe) had ear pieces - probably for the same purpose.

That detail IMO does not denigrate from the performances. As I said in my first post on this
