The ultimate rock star?
 

I was thinking today that there aren't many real rock stars around in music today and if there is they were probably around 20+ years ago too.

I'm not talking the best musical talent but rather somebody that fits the persona of a rock star.

I think I am giving my vote for the ultimate rock star to Robert Plant.

Your vote?

Although way different in style and approach than Plant, my vote would go to Marilyn Manson. Highly contemporary, highly controversial, high-profile. Not sure you need a lot more than that.

I gotta go with Gene
the tunes, the history and the lifestyle with attitude

Oh, and I think Dave Coverdale could give Plant a good run for the money.

Axl Rose had the world in the palm of his hands.

Yeah, I would say he is one of the few actual rock stars around today. Though even he is getting old these days.

True..though I can't watch him now. Too sad.

Boy George.

Tommy fucking Lee

So true!!!


Can you imagine having EVERYTHING you ever dreamed about and yet still being so much of an asshole that you trash it all for your ego!

Im still pissed at that fucking guy!

I think Steven Tyler of Aerosmith would take that title currently.

I was with them until they did music for Armegedon

Ziggy Stardust

Don't we all? :)

Those of us that can't afford surgery, yes.

hmm, some good suggestions, but how about David Lee Roth? Maybe over the hill now, but back in the day, he was the ultimate frontman...when he took that stage, it was HIS stage.

I must admit........being an old geezer who grew up in the late 70's that back in "the day" there was no better front man for a Rock Group than Diamond Dave! He played the part to the MAX! :thumbsup

And even those who can. Just see the Stones. :1orglaugh

I suppose somebody should mention Ozzy.

yeah but he fucked it up bad!

Really James I thought it was....

steven tyler
robert plant
i like that dude in radio head as well thom something or other =))

obviously.

Thom Yorke

Surprised no one has mentioned Keith Richards.

I can't imagine that dude doing/being anything other than a rock star.

Next in line is a toss-up between Ozzy, Roth or Plant in their heyday.
