that's a load of crap. seriously, questioning whether or not one enjoys live music because they want to see a specific record played?
i am definitely getting tired of the Don't Look Back meme but I've seen some great ones...getting to hear specific songs that would likely never get played normally is the allure for me.
plus, sometimes the record is a complete musical statement on its own (cf. _Feedbacker_ or _Millions Now Living_).
