Usually by the time I see Sonic Youth on tour, I've listened to the new album so many times that it is nearly as familiar as the older stuff. And I'm more curious about what the fuck they do to get their sounds on the songs I've never seen them play. But of course, I always go apeshit if they throw down "Brother James" or "I Love Her All of the Time".
Overall though, I respect them more for continuing to put out great new albums worthy of focusing on than being a jukebox of their past catalog.
