And actually, I find it strange that someone would reconsider their opinion of a band based on their live performance.

I don't really care what a band is like live if I'm at home listening to a cd. If I just shelled out money to see them live, and they suck, then surprise, surprise, I suddenly care. Somehow, I can't imagine you'd be any different, "Oh, I just wasted my money, and my night, but I don't mind, because they are studio geniuses!"
Mind, I won't stop listening to good recordings just because somebody can't pull it off live. I already said that I still listen to Autechre constantly, despite the fact that their "live" set was terminally boring. However, no matter how good their albums may continue to be, I would only see them live again if I heard things had drastically changed.
