Who has been the greatest live act ever?

October 29, 2008, 05:10:01 PM

Who has been the greatest live act ever?

The best band or act you've ever seen?

The Stones, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Queen, Pink Floyd, Prince, The Who, David Bowie, Bob Dylan, Kiss, AC/DC, Nirvana or someone else?

This Day in Music have just started a poll to find out. If you fancy voting for who you think should win go to http://www.thisdayinmusic.com

You can vote for any act, just go to 'other' on the list.

Don't let anyone drive you crazy when you know it's in walking distance.

Re: Who has been the greatest live act ever?

Ive seen none of the bands on that list, except part of Led Zep when they helped Foo Fighters do the encore at Wembley earlier this year.

So i voted others > Foo Fighters, best "band" ive ever seen live.

If i had seen Queen, i would have voted for them.

Re: Who has been the greatest live act ever?

I've seen U2 a number of times, and they are one of those bands that have been doing it so long, they really know how to put on a good show. Of the arena-sized shows, that would probably get my vote.

Some of the more memorable shows were smaller bands at smaller venues, though. Some notables:

GWAR
The Cramps
The Samples
Big Head Todd (opening band flaked, so they came out and played an acoustic set to open for themselves -- was very, very cool)
Dead Milkmen

I could go on and on...

Pink Floyd without a doubt.. even recreations of DSOTM are impressive but will never be matched.

U2. by and far.

you could put an Emfire release on for 2 minutes and you would be a sleep before it finishes - Chunky

it's RA. they'd blow their load all over some stupid 20 minute loop of a snare if it had a quirky flange setting. - Tiddles
