Yes, you are right. There isn't much recent stuff on youtube, either. She doesn't allow recording devices in her concert. She caught two people recording last night, and took their phones away--and (pretended to call?) called one woman's father telling him she had been a bad girl. :)
I understand her reasons. These days it seems no one wants to actually "be" at the concert; instead, they want a poor recording to prove they were there.

I'm not really sure why she is like that ... maybe she is a perfectionist.
In the YouTube video I posted on Ted Talk ... she actually told the audience to stop clapping ... tone it down. Then she told them ... I'll show you how to clap to this song ... and she' so damn good, she gets away with it.
Anyway ... she is unbelievable live ... she has a real presence and palpable feeling to her music.
If you ever get a chance to buy the LaserDisc of 10,000 Maniacs MTV unplugged ... don't pass it up ... even if you have to buy an old LD player.
If you understand, things are just as they are; if you do not understand, things are just as they are.

She did have to quiet the audience at one point last night...some people, with some substance on board, I presume, were getting rather out of control with their shouting. But she handled it like an old pro, which she is, of course.
