Another thing not yet mentioned is that with live performances, the speakers tend to be directed outward, directly toward the audience. On-stage, the music might be a lot quieter than you think. Meanwhile, the singer is probably producing quite a high volume of sound directly inside their throat. Between these two things, it may be hard to hear the rest of the band.

I’ve noticed this before doing some karaoke – I was singing, but was loud enough that I couldn’t hear the music, and got off tempo. I wasn’t even particularly loud, but the acoustics were bad and directed away from me.
