Lots of music starts with rests. If the first note isn't on the 1, you'll have rests before it. Not usual at all.

If the first note isn't on the 1, you'll write rests before it, so that the person reading your sheet music understands what's going on. That doesn't mean the music has started yet. The notation is not the music.
