Stones... Partly because I simply prefer their stuff, but when there are two bands as gold as these two, I sort of look at secondary traits, and being a great live performer is pretty high up there on the list IMO. Even though the Beatles focused more on creating studio albums, the ability to be a great live band is something different altogether and just as difficult in many aspects. There are plenty of bands where I hate their studio albums but I would willingly shell out a bit of dough to see them live simply because of the quality of their live performances.
