This question (to release a live CD) came up last night at 92Y during the portion when Mr. Fricke read questions submitted from the audience. The audience member had attended one of the Radio City shows. Mellencamps response was (paraphrasing here) that during the live performance there is a connection that happens w\ the audience and that there's a vibe that' s created that only those that were in attendance would understand. He said it's kinda like the guy that tells a joke and ends with "...you had to be there." He feels that you can't recapture that same feeling in a recording of the performance, while he did acknowledge that the Radio City shows were great. There was no mention of the recent Life Death Live & Freedom CD, just the sense that he doesn't plan on releasing any live material.
