sorry to tell you that i thought they were rather poor live :(
although that may be because Everclear were their tour support and were very, VERY good the night i saw them, anyone would've looked a bit tame after them.

QOTSA
Metallica
Foo Fighters
Guns N Roses
Feeder

I've seen loads of live footage for Guns and Roses, and I can honestly say I prefer their album versions.

I almost always prefer studio to live anyway, so that's a given.

Sometimes that's true, but in the case of CLimbing up the Walls, the live intro is so much more suited to a live performance, than the album one. It's only a slight difference but worth seeing live.

Likewise with other songs. Sometimes, you'd miss out on amazing added on solos and stuff.

The Beatles
Guns 'n' Roses
Keane
Maroon 5
Rolling Stones
