Then go sit in your room and listen to the album
Just listen to the album then instead of wasting your money on tickets.
don't worry man, it be like that sometimes. at the end of the day though, i'm just doing me. you know what i'm saying?

if y'all talking about LCD Soundsystem, just wait. Murphy won't stop making post-punk music, and he needs a band to make it. In something like 5-6 years, LCD will make a new album, at least as good as the first LCD album, i bet a trillion on it.

If you have to play the same song multiple times in a row it means you lack other good songs to fill the time with. Sounds pretty typical for someone as shitty as bruce Springsteen
>>53850604
As everyone else else has already pointed out, that's generally a good thing. It's often at least interesting to hear bands reinterpret their own material, and it can even end up resulting in something very fresh being done.

>Being this indoctrinated into recordings
live music is the original form. recordings came later.
The only time you should have a problem with a live show being different is if its an orchestra and they fuck up playing the score pretty badly. Orchestras should have no excuse for fucking up. The scores right in front of them, they're rehearsed the pieces, they should be able to play it right on the night, or GTFO of the orchestra.

But that's a double standard right here : Why do classical orchestra need to be sound exactly as it supposed to, and not rok/pop bands?
In fact, sometimes, orchestra plays songs in a different tempo, that depends on the conductor, but again it's not really really different. So you raise a pretty good fallacy here man.

>>53850716
The moment Future Islands puts out a live recording, hopefully one that stretches over an hour and a half, is the moment they break the top fifty of the decade.
>>53853769
there's still leniency for conducor and interpretation, but the cold hard facts of the score (like notes and rhythms) should always be the same. when you're dealing with a score, you're dealing with something that provides all the information needed to reproduce the work the way the composer intended. thats why you gotta stick to it.
the reason rok/pop bands dont have to do this is that they're not playing from a score (except some touring musicians playing with big acts who actually score out live parts for their backing musicians - like top tier R&B artists.)

Most rock bands write their own material, so they have more authority on how to perform their shit, and it's just a completely different tradition. The role of the composer is very venerated in classical music, and most performers and conductors are all about reaching an interpretation that honors the composer's intentions. But some classical music does have room for improv, like many baroque thangs. Anyway, the deconstruction of established tunes is something that jazzers have done for ages, and it fits into rock music as well. Songs aren't seen as these sacred things.
