I’m not asking you to list your favorite concerts. I think that there is another thread for that. Rather, we shouldn’t judge pop bands solely on the basis of their recorded music. Some bands are simply better on stage than they are in the recording studio. I’ll cite the following for their consistent ability to put on a great live show.
1. The Cramps 2. The Ramones 3. Toots Hibbert (touring as Toots and the Maytals, even though Toots fired the original Maytals some time ago) 4. GWAR 5. The UK Subs (crap music, brilliant live show) 6. AC-DC (when Bon Scott was their front man) 7. The Meat Puppets 8. Tom Waits 9. The Anti-Nowhere League 10. Van Halen (w/ David Lee Roth: I hate their music, but I saw them twice, and had a rocking good time!) 11. Iggy Pop 12. Ted Nugent (This man is the redneck Iggy Pop) 13. Joe Ely 14. The Butthole Surfers 15. The Clash 16. The Mentors 17. Nig Heist 18. Emmy Lou Harris
