changing the way songs were originally done at concerts

what i am referring to are performers whether they be individuals or bands that say that they just have to change the way songs were originally done to keep it fresh. they say that after playing a certain song over and over again they tire of doing so. my reply is that many people that go to see artists are going there to hear certain songs that they fell in love with on radio or however and not some other version of that song. combine that with some fans may have only one chance to ever see this individual or band perform and would like to hear songs performed how the fan first heard them. i am not saying that a different version of all songs are bad but i would rather hear a song performed how i originally heard it

If that's how you feel then pop in your headphones and turn up your iPod.
No need to attend a concert at all.

Double disappoint. If you want to hear the album version, listen to the damn album.

I agree. I paid to hear what I know, not some "artistic" take on what I already know I like. I've demanded my money back more than a few times when "artists" bastardized my favorite songs just cause they thought they could. That guitar solo wasn't three minutes on the radio, why should it be now? I consider it false advertising to play something different.

Yeah I hate going to concerts and hearing a completely original and unique version of a song.

I mean, they're just like making it up and shite. I wanna hear wagon wheel the way it was meant to be played.

I feel the same way about this. Saw Eric Clapton in New Orleans a few years back and he played the unplugged version of Layla.

The fricking nerve of that guy!! I hope you wrote an angry letter.

I'm with you OP... obviously, there is some freedom there... I don't mind an acoustic song done electric or a slight change in lyrics or tempo... things like that...
But no, I don't want to here a good song, reworked as a reggae song cause your fricking tired of playing it..

Why go see live music then?
Posted on 9/13/14 at 10:27 am to TreyAnastasio
I love the songs... and the energy, volume, etc of live music... Like I said, I don't mind a little freedom to do things, but I don't want them to do a version where I don't recognize a song until halfway through...
Is it a deal breaker if I know a band does it here and there? No... If I knew they were going to do a whole set of reworked songs, I'd prob skip the show... unless it was an acoustic set or something like that

Well in that particular case Duane Allman is dead so the slide portion is pretty impossible to replicate (with all respect to Derek Trucks on the Clapton 2006 World Tour)
