What I mean by that is, obviously the guitars and other instruments are not plugged in, but the drums don’t have that option. So why can we not hear that the drums are actually live? Hopefully that makes sense what I am asking.

In a professional mainstream TV show, usually you have drum heads that made to not create sounds, so called “mesh heads”. Cymbals are usually two cymbals on top of each others (you can’t use rubber as you’d see it on TV). Kickdrum very often has a special trigger that doesn’t produce proper sound. The drummer needs to know what he is playing, but his set will give an extremely muffled sound. The audience will not hear anything he does as long as he is playing in time and knows his breaks.
