    well,that aint live anymore [/b][/quote]
    If that is your opinon on how a live cd/movie should be, than Nine Inch Nails, Story Of The Year, Cyndi Lauper, Kiss, and Metallica haven't released a live album. Come on, it was recorded and filmed at a true live show. It's automaticly a live album. They just edited it so you get the best preformance.

    Exactly. I saw a thing on TV a while back about how Kiss overdubbed the vocals on the Alive! album, they didn't do it by choice, they did it because in some places Paul Stanley sang off-key to the point you wouldn't even want to listen to it. When you're at an actual concert you only hear things once, so the band can get away with imperfections and still sound good. A live album is still an album, and realistically you can't go out in a live setting and do everything perfectly.

    And in any case, we dunno how much Live in Texas was really edited. I mean look at how LP played at Rock Am Ring 2004. That show was webcast live as it happened and then aired on TV subsequently, without being studio edited or mixed at all, and LP pulled of a nearly flawless performance. For the most part, any studio corrections done on a live album are done for the sake of the listener's ears, so really I don't see what the big deal is.

    So here's my solution:

    Recall every copy of Live In Texas and give us a copy of Live in Germany. :lol:

    Then people can't compain about it not being as live as we think.

    Yea. I like when the crowds loud because it shows you that there playing good and that everyone there is loving it. And yea it should have just been raw video, nothing edited. Thats pretty much what alot of people thought they were paying for. But anyway its still a good performance.
