Best live band???
 

All I can think about lately is the VAST show Im going to see next month (Jan 23 at the Bluebird in Denver if youre interested) and its got me thinking about the best live hard rock/metal group out there? Any thougts on who puts on the best show???

In order:


Nine Inch Nails
Tool
Queens of the Stone Age
Autolux

QOTSA put on a good show a few years ago when I saw them, but found it kind of boring without Oliveri.

My vote would be for Mastodon.

i'm going to see Smashing Pumpkins in February I imagine they'll be stellar

Kiss

I don't like sounding like a try hard mod,
But the amount of "best band live" threads seems to be increasing.
*cough* search button.

Maybe I'm biased because I like these guys so much but Between The Buried and Me is amazing live for how technical their instrumentation is and their vocalist's growl and clean vocals sound exactly the same live as they do on the albums.

I also agree with whoever said Mastodon and Tool...Tool gives great performances.

Yep me too, seeing them in Dublin though. Its gonna be one hell of a gig. Best live bands i've seen are Metallica, Nine Inch Nails and Foo Fighters.

No doubt about it

Def Leppard. They're great live.
