Who has been the greatest live act ever?

The best band or act you've ever seen?

The Stones, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna, Queen, Pink Floyd, The Who, Bowie, Dylan, Kiss, Nirvana or someone else?

This Day in Music have just started a poll to find out. If you fancy voting for who you think should win go to http://www.thisdayinmusic.com

You can vote for any act, just go to 'other' on the list.

The answer is Gwar.

But aside from them...um Nirvana? They were notoriously garbage live. I wont judge anyone that I did not actually see in concert, so Prince is up there. KISS is an experience...kind of like Gwar...in that the quality of the music takes a backseat to the fact that so much is going on.

Best show I have ever seen was David Bowie/Nine Inch Nails, there was no break were one band stopped and the other started. They simply transitioned between the 2 by doing duets of each others material in between acts.

Billy Joel is the best I've ever seen. No flashy explosions or elaborate lighting displays, just 3 1/2 hours of great music.

Second would be The Rolling Stones

Seconded...his 'Musicology' Show was unforgettable.

Acoustic "Little Red Corvette" = Brilliance.
