Would also like to hear the songs played as they are on the CD without all the little add ons. A little too much pretention.
I hate bands who play things exactly the same and exactly like the record all the time - if I wanted to hear that I could simply put the CD. I far prefer bands to push songs forward and evolve ideas over time. It also makes for a unique live performance every time rather than a stagnant run through of the same old songs.
