I like to see a band which has interesting studio productions and then a
really good live act.  Where most bands blow it is either in not "capturing
their live sound" in the studio, or else attempting to exactly recreate their
studio hits live.

I'm usually impressed when a band can play live and come up with a good live
version/adaption of their studio stuff - changing whatever doesn't translate
well to the stage.
