This actually makes me wonder--is the way that both sides are viewing live albums a generational thing?
Music was meant to be perform live. I don't understand anti-live album snowflakes that melt when a band goes onstage performs in front of a "live" audience. So it gets recorded, is that a crime? That is the purpose of a band, to perform in front of people. When did the definition of being musicians became to mean only being confined to a room with mics sealed off from the rest of the world? Maybe the next Rush wants to record a live performance they can construct a sound-proof room onstage and isolated themselves from the crowd and record what they did and everyone can be happy.
