tmwsiy It is absolutely outrageous to assume that a reviewer needs to be at a show to offer insightful reviews of the music. Sure, you want some additional details on the pre-show lot or "scene", gotta be there.

Great musical reviews of Jazz shows from recordings from smoky clubs of the 1940's & 1950's appear all the time. Did the reviewer attend? Hell no. He LISTENED. We have the technology.
