Some acts just don't translate - Aimee Mann for example I enjoy recorded, but was awful live. Thankfully her supporting act (David Ford) was and is fabulous in both formats, so the concert was worthwhile for his discovery.
I very much enjoy the experience of a live act and the ability to talk to the performers. Two of our favourite bands - Dave's True Story and GrooveLily - we met this way, while a third artist - Marian Call - should be doing a house concert at our place in October.
Mostly, though, yet another casualty of parenthood.
