Who has been the greatest live act ever?
The Stones, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Queen, Pink Floyd, Bowie, Nirvana or someone else?

Pink Floyd, Rush (back when Geddy still used amps on stage), Queensryche on ther Building Empires tour was amazing, saw Pantera when Dimebag snapped off the headstcok on the ML he was playing but thanks to the clamping nut stayed in tune, many other memorable concerts but nothing recent.

I saw them in a fairly intimate setting and they really created a party atmosphere. We even helped a guy in a wheelchair crowd surf.

My favorite band of all-time. In their prime they really could not be beat!

When I saw them he had his hair styled into a curving point from front to back and his beard styled in a curve forward that almost touched his hair(imagine a half moon) and all he was wearing was a black garbage bag. Hilarious. But the guy can play.

Earth, Wind & Fire is another act that blew me away back in the day (when Verdine was actually playing)! Chicago was another killer live act! | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
