Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

Is there a way to add a bar at the beginning of a Logic song and at
the same time move 
the automation and tempo changes.   I can't get my Virtual guitarist
to play on the first 
note, but I'm sure if I added a bar and game him more time to 'think'
he would be a good 
boy.  But I don't want to have to re-do my automation and tempo
changes.  I realize this is 
a VG problem but I have often come upon this situation - where I add
time and Logic 
moves the note data but not the tempo changes.
