is it just me or..

i get bored easily of listening to videos/recordings of songs I haven't heard before, but irl when some1 else is playing the piano in front of me it's way more interesting for me to listen, does this apply to anyone else?

I don't really get bored very easily, but I strongly prefer attending concerts. When I attend live concerts, I am able to communicate with the artist and the experience is so much different from watching a video. And the sound in a concert is different, it's real. Also, in a concert, you can always watch the musician which is more interesting than listening to a CD. However, I am interested in music and not in the pianist!
As for pieces I wasn't aware of before, it depends... If the piece is really interesting and beautiful, I don't mind if it is a video or not. I just get absorbed by the music.
