I have that problem with instruments every now and then.. Ive made it a 
habit to just start my songs at either bar 1 or 2 (we usually need a 
count in from the drum machine anyways so it all works out hehe)..

Ok going off the top of my head, Im at work here and dont have access to 
Logic so bear with me, grab the first measure or however many you need, 
and set your locater points to this measure(s).. On one of the menus in 
the arrange window (this is where being at home wouldve been really 
handy), there is a command to Insert Time based on the locater points 
you have set.. I want to say its on the Track menu but I dont think so. 
Now if everything works as it should, you should now have an extra 
bar(s) inserted where you set the locate points, and Logic should give 
you that message about tracks containing Automation Data and ask you 
whether you want to move/copy/keep/etc..
