I found this happened a fair bit in my old rock days. I just assumed that audiences are ghoulish (look at people's taste in movies) and they got off on the desperate energy. Everyone looks at a car crash, yes? People can often sense when a band is comfortable and just trotting the music out. There's no risk. Everything is down pat and under control.
There are certain kinds of audiences - esp fans of 60s, garage rock, punk and early classic rock - who prefer watching musicians struggle for competence. It's for the same reason that the Man in Black harms the AI hosts in Westworld - it makes them more real
