Greatest 'LIVE' Act

Gotta say although I don't like them as much as I used to, Slipknot were king live! Although so were Deftones, Funeral for a friend, Zebrahead, Brand New.

In all honesty, its gotta be Rage Against The Machine. (For Me)

Tool for me.

Metallica were awesome. People say "Ahh the new album is shit..." blah blah blah. Live? They're the same old Metallica. They ****ing rock.

Incubus are very good live.

GNR, baby!

Megadeth was good too. VR wasn't bad, either.

Korn had the sickest Mosh pit, though.

Best I've seen is The Hives. They put on such an incredible stage show, and Howlin Pelle Almqvist is the perfect frontman for a band.

The Hives are great. I love their persona on stage, especially Howlin Pelle's crazy arrogant, sarcastic demeanor. Cool characters.

Green Day have always been consistent in their live awesomeness.

Also, The Dropkick Murphys really impressed me. They seemed to turn an entire field on a summers day into a tight folk-like atmosphere, like a pub or something. A pub with a tornado of a moshpit.

And, my guilty pleasure The Darkness put on a great live show. Pyrotechnics, crazy theatrics and extended solos, and firework displays.

Then there's Guns and Roses, Metallica and RATM.

However, the best, my fave, only slightly beating AC/DC: The Red Hot Chilli Peppers. They have everything.

You havent seen a moshpit untill you've seen Hatebreed. The best shows I've been to were Slipknot, Slayer, The Greatful Dead (when Jerry was alive) and Hatebreed.

System of a Down
Slayer

Static X
Glassjaw
Morbid Angel

You saw Slayer? 🙁 I want to see them!

Hatebreed, huh? They're not really my thing, and I'm not just saying that because Jamey Jasta makes HB Ball as boring as hell. 😉

"Best I've seen is The Hives. They put on such an incredible stage show, and Howlin Pelle Almqvist is the perfect frontman for a band."

Howlin Pelle is the man. Dr.Matt Destruction is the coolest in the most UNcool way.

Dr Matt Destruction is so hilarious...reminds me of a muppet. Their lead guitarist is pretty funny too.

KISS had the best live show....
"Had".....😛

Tool easily.

i hear all teh time that green day has awesome live concerts...
i wanna see them this spring on there next tour...

RATM were amazing live... Though I'm ashamed to say I've never actually been to one of their shows.

I completely agree, Ricky was the best.

Slayer is great live.

I thought you hated Slipknot?

Shadows Fall, good band.

Alice Cooper had the best live show. Even though Kiss stole a lot from him...

The best concert I'VE SEEN was U2's Zooropa show at Wembley Stadium. I dont know what your criteria is for greatest live act is but they were the greatest live band i've seen.
