Whats better, hearing an unheard song or one you know?

I just love nothing more in the world than going to see LIVE music and I try to see a band once a week but i've just only noticed there is very few gigs I've been to where I know EVERY song. I'm into so many bands and not really a huge fan of any (love prince but 100% sure I'd not know 1 or 2 songs if I got/get the chance to see him) so knowing all the songs played is often unlikely. The last band I saw which I knew everything to was Jamiroquai and I can't decide if it was a better experience because of this or not even though hanging on every word is pretty cool! So whats better, hearing a song for the first time or the 999th time?

p.s how terrible is it I've never seen P live sad

I'd hate to go to a Prince concert and not know as of the songs, but I'd rather that then go and have him just play "Kiss" all night. I'd rather hear songs I know, but not too well.
Am I allowed to say that? smile

The best to me is seeing a show where you know the studio versions of songs, but the live versions just blow you away and take the song you already liked to a higher level. Then you go home and anxiously await a boot.....er, live album official release! biggrin

Depends on how good the one you never heard before is.

I just drove 6 hours in a car with my friend and he was playing Passenger Disc Jockey. At one point we were listening to an old rap album I've heard many times. I was like "You brought any new stuff you wanted to play for me?"

Other times I'm not so adventurous. shrug
