I agree with you on this. I would never expect perfection and sometimes it's the mistakes that make a live performance more memorable, in a good way. A simple, "I'm under the weather" would be enough for me forgive every mistake. Heck, If the singers voice was completely gone and they admitted to lip syncing before the performance would be enough for me to look past it.

However, to just lip sync without saying anything about it is tantamount to robbery. I would just have bought the recording.

This only applies when I pay for a performance. If it's free, I don't make any judgments.
