That is because people at open mics people are listening for the performance, not the song. The vast majority of people do listen for the performance and production.
Not the case. Many of these were NSAI functions such as swaps and almost all were amateur songwriters singing to other amateur songwriters. They were listening to all aspects and most of them just politely passing the time until it was their moment. Not unlike here. If you want people to listen to your "song" then it will need to "sound" good...in any context. One bit of proof could be this thread. You can argue against that 50 ways to Sunday, but you are paddling against the current. "No groove, no song." Not my quote.
