The biggest factor I've found in bad live performances are bands that are used to having deluxe, ultra dialed in monitoring during practice. When they go on stage, they are not prepared for the bad monitoring and bad stage mix. This gets them lost sometimes on stage, particularly singers who haven't developed muscle memory for the songs and can't hear themselves. With a video, they have something to laugh about 10 years from now if they keep at it.

Jimi Hendrix said something along the lines of that he can find something to like in any ones playing. I try not to criticize others abilities, because there will always (most of the time) be a player out there better than I am . Musicians are more adapt at listening than others in the crowd. I never attend a gig wanting to watch them fail.
