The amount of good to brilliant songs that springsteen and U2 made in the 80's and 90's (not counting the last 2 deccenia) is HUGE !!!! Also more diverse then the other bands you mentionned... 80 % of rolling stones songs is made on the same simple rock-tempo.

Van Halen had a pretty electrifying live show.

It was tear-inducing. All of us had lost our voices by the end, we were singing so hard. Springsteen was kind of in between the two.

I agree with you and I don't think that Led Zeppelin should be number six and from the live performances I've seen between Queen and Led Zeppelin one or the other should be in first place and there is no way that Led Zeppelin should be behind anybody else except Queen perhaps but not number 6 definitely! I think these people that do these poles are just ignorant because I saw one that pulled the top 10 lead guitarist and Brian May from Queen was listed honorable mention and didn't even get in the top 10! That's horse crap because the guy is a genius and he and the bass player were able to get this amplifier the bass player made and his guitar kit sound like a Orchestra if he wanted it to. He's always perfected his craft and I think he's every bit as good of a guitar player as Jimmy Page and Eddie Van Halen it's just that he's got his own style and I think that you can listen to those guys you know in the top even though Jimi Hendrix is by far the best guitar player ever! I wasn't a big fan of his music because I was born in 1967 but I do like a lot of his music and his guitar playing is just phenomenal. There's just no reason that Brian May of Queen was given an honorable mention. I disagree with many of these polls.

Just Queen at Live Aid alone would put them in the #1 spot. They are legendary.

First I love all genres of music but the best live bands I’ve seen has been Tool (actually as good if not better live than on album) Prince, Metallica, Pink Floyd, The Allman Brothers, P Funk, A Perfect Circle, the Tea Party and BB King. I always compare every live act to Prince and Tool because they were beyond the best. I’ve seen Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Kiss, Bill Monroe, Ohio Players, the Beastie Boys, Smoky Robinson and a ton of other acts that were great live also.

Queen was just off the chain. Who is best? I do not know or care but if you ever get your hands on the Queen Live at Wembly Stadium concert.... grab it and fasten you seat belt. I saw them at the Philly Spectrum in the 80's. Blew me away. A better showman then Freddie has not been born yet. He was.......I miss him. Words cannot describe what he put into the show and the band was so tight it was stupid. I know why the band took a long time off because they missed him.

I can completely understand how anyone who has never been to a Queen concert might have a different opinion on who should be number 1 but for all of us that were lucky enough to see Queen live, it isn't even a contest. It was a religious experience. All hail Freddie. I saw them live back when Freddie was still sporting long hair and wearing many spandex outfits. An experience that will remain with me forever. I have seen some great concerts back in my day as well so it is not like I didn't have anything to compare them against. Just to name a few of the better concerts...Aerosmith (in 79 if I remember correctly), AC/DC (Bonn Scott, AC/DC), Rush (2112 tour), Judas Priest (Rob Halford, Judas Priest) and Van Halen (David Lee Roth, Van Halen).

Seen some of these people live and seen others in concert videos. Who is best in concert to you often depends on who you like most. My first ever concert was Led Zeppelin song remains the same in Madison Square Garden when I was like 13. To a 13 year old rock fan it was like watching the Gods play a concert. Bonzo played the drums like no other. He could beat them to death on one song and be complex and gentle on the next. Jimmy Page was magnetic, relaxed, and did things with his guitar that rivaled even Hendrix the TRUEST guitar master of all time. Then Robert plant came on stage as the archetype of all rock singers. Always imitated and never truly challenged. Then finally the bassist and most under rated musical genius in history John Paul Jones who could play every instrument, over a dozen of them, better than anyone else. Still a fan of Led Zeppelin after decades regardless of the naysayers claiming they stole some of their music, IF they stole it they must have done SOMETHING great with it as people like Randy California never had a hit. They were rock Gods and nothing could ever take that away. Still the fact that all Freddie needed was a white piano and a microphone stand, PLUS a great and talented band, and he could do whatever he wanted and effortlessly control a quarter of a million people at a time. He was the greatest front man to ever live. So I will give you my order for what it is worth. On my list I have seen Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, U2, and Pink Floyd. Had Pink Floyd no depended so much on light blasts and lasers I might have switched them with Led Zeppelin under duress. 10. Bruce Springsteen 9. Black Sabbath/ Ozzy 8. The Who 7. Rush 6. U2 5. The Doors 4. Jimi Hendrix 3. Pink Floyd 2. Led Zeppelin 1. Queen That's the way this humble aging guitarist sees it. I am not a fan of Iron Maidens sound that much. If I were to put a metal band other than Sabbath in there it would likely be Judas Priest.

@brazycastard7083

Talking from experience, Iron Maiden, is the most organized live band out there. From changing costumes and scenery in every single song, to using real flamethrowers and having swordfights. Apart from that, Iron maiden's live solos are even better than the studio version (in my opinion). Also, it would be necessary to mention that Bruce Dickinson is constantly running around while singing for 2+ hours, being in an extraordinarily good shape for a 56 year old. The other band members make their presence intense as well, by constantly interacting with the crowd, and picking on each other's guitars & generally smiling all the time. I find your own picks pretty reasonable, however I would include Maiden somewhere on the list, and AC/DC should definitely be on at least number 3, cuz ain't no other bands that can make the crowd jump simultaneously like a heart beat and sing louder than Brian. I'm not even gonna comment Angus Young presence, I think it's pretty obvious that he's the best live guitarist out there.
