Is that a bad thing --seeing an artist you love performing something you never heard before? Should everything you see and hear performed be familiar to be a satisfying show? If you really love the artist, it shouldn't matter what the f*ck they play. It's a show- not a juke box. (Note: my frustation is not targeted to you, but to the general mentality & corporatized state of the music industry in the current time.)
