|
|
By:
there are videos on youtube where he seems quite at home in the audience and even allows them up on stage in spite of the dangers etc..his brother is even more extrovert

Not a fan but it would have to be Freddy Mercury - totally stole the show at Live Aid when put up against some of the (then) greatest performenrs on the planet.
At a much less exposed level, anyone who has seen Henry Rollins lead Black Flag or his own band, has witnessed someone with stage presence by the bucketload. |

tony ive seen them twice and they were amazing, i think the whole band in general has just such a big presence about them when performing coz they really go for it

I saw henry rollins in person last year when I was in Edinburgh. H was just coming into Tescos as I was leaving. I let him know I recognised him, without actually saying anything, as you do. I was surprised how short he is - maybe 5 10 - considering how much larger than life he looks on stage...

There's loads of brilliant front men from now & from back in the day. In addition to the ones mentioned...
Jack White (White Stripes/Raconteurs/Dead Weather) (NAP) Adam Ant Watty (Exploited) Animal (Anti-Nowhere League) Brett Anderson (Suede) Damon Albarn (Blur) Liam Gallacher, Ian Brown, Mike Skinner etc etc etc None of the above are brilliant singers (although Anderson was beter live than I'd expected) but all had phenomenal stage presence for one reason or another. |

Michael Stipe was amazing when REM played Ipswich a couple of years ago.
Never thought he would be 'all that', but he was a quality frontman. When they did a track without him, they became a pub band. |

Greatest frontman for greatest band the World has ever, or will ever, seen. Sam Baker----singer songwriter from Texas. Of all the current crop, if you can, go see this man when he is next over here. A magnetic stage presence. Uncanny. |

Freddie Mercury definitely

By:
Saw Morrissey a month back.
Excellent gig, he's a genuine great, whatever people think of him. Not sure about him being a great frontman as such, more just an all round 'character'. Lemmy - he's not a bad frontman for his age either. |
