For live shows, mix in Ableton, or leave to sound guy

I have a bunch of backing tracks and I'm trying to figure out how to do things. Should I mix them myself and just have one backing track with everything on it but my live vocals/guitar, or should I break up the instruments in to, say, drums, bass, synths and send those out to the house's mixing board for them to mix for the specific set of speakers/building? Thanks for any input.
Edit: I think I will, at least, put the drums on a separate track because sometimes, I'll have a live drummer, and then, I can just mute the drum track when I don't need it.
