 Topic: Who has been the greatest live act ever?

I found a used GG Allin DVD, watched it once, and tossed it. That dude was just broken, not really entertaining. Obviously someone was entertained by him.

Funnily, your signature is well accorded to the reference to GG Allin.

That's extending the definition of "Greatest" into a very gray area.

The graytest of them all, pardon the pun. For those who'd like to do a search for G. G. Allin - the warning in my sig applies.

How about Rock Bitch? Definitely the most pornographic live show. I saw some of their videos.

I´m with you crimson87, so I´ll go with the better I´ve ever seen: AC/DC 
A show is a show, so what does it matter? If is a show, the better is the one who really
makes you move and the one you´ll never forget

The water rushes over all
cities crash in the mighty wave;
the final man is very small,
plunging in for his final bathe

Gabriel Genesis, just imagine watching The Lamb with those screens passing 5,000 photos when computers were not availlable and Peter gabriel appearing simultaneously at the two extremes of the stage (Of course it was a guy dressed like him).
And nobody filmed it, so it will always be like an urban myth.

Forget KISS, Liberace had the fire (candelabras) and the costumes (sequined tuxes) way before KISS.

Foe me it's a strange tie between Black Oak Arkansas (circa 1973) and The Sensational Alex Harvey Band from the same year. so different, but both so much fun. Why isn't S.A.H.B. in the archives anyway?
