Back to the original question. Live has toured with other people as part of the band before. For example they had the keyboards on their tour for The Distance To Here Album (my personal favorite). Michael Railton and Jerry Harrison put down the keys on the album and for all purposes were part of the band at this time. Adam was also on this album and he played on the tour too.

It seems to me that Live will add people to change the sound, but they like to maintain that the original four members are their band. I don't know the exact reason for this, but I do think that it is pretty cool. Even though Adam is "kool", has been played with them extensively on tour, and has been a large part of Live's recordings he is not part of the original band.

As it says in the Secret Samadi album info, as well as the other CD's, "Live is Chad Taylor, Patrick Dalheimer, Chad Gracey, and Edward Kowalczyk." The band itself will always be Ed, Chad, Chad, and Pat and the fact they have stuck to this statment for all these years is awesome.

Rock on guys!
