Very little, all in all, considering today's practice of keeping the backing boys active from the very start of the set to the very close. But, as we all know, every band is doing this now. The appeal of that live rock band sound, which was so popular from the late '50s through the late '70s, seems to have nearly disappeared, thanks to live rock's move into a more variety-hour or Vegas-show style, where the rapping or the dancing become the focus.

Even small-time bands that play in clubs & casinos prerecord their tracks & their harmonies. They can't afford to hire backing musicians (like Fleetwood Mac) but they still want everything to sound "perfect"--& so do their buyers.
