Best frontman in a Band

[Icy Gull]

Continuing the musical theme

Jagger in the early days of the Stones

Freddie Mercury probably pips Jagger as the complete showman. Hard to forget his amazing performance (against doctor's orders I seem to remember) at Live Aid, where I thought they were the best band on show, and I didn't even like Queen.

I'll second that. Ian Hunter was fairly useful as well.

Busted have a frontman? They all seem to ponce around stage equally, with their songs that pinch bits of other songs for their intros, e.g. the part of Dream Attack at the start of 3AM.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

3am is not there best work

 

[Easy 10]

Steve Tyler - Aerosmith. Hope I can do what he does at his age.

Richard Ashcroft - The Verve

Sleeping with the Light On. Wicked.

Scared to admit thats actually on my HDD. Don't ask me why, I've no fecking clue where half my music came from or why I have it. And I never delete any either...

Although looking at the folder its in it appears to be a full rip of a Now! collection.

 

[Hungry Joe]

Have to say from seeing him loads of times that Kirk Brandon takes a lot of beating. Could be terrifying one minute then like your best mate the next. Damn fine showman, sang most of 'Mickey' at one show to me as I dangled from the lighting rig.

 

[Kylies Stunt Arse]

Had to be Jim Morrison, or maybe Morrissey.

Closely followed by Arthur Lee and Robert Smith.
