Seen em twice live, will see them again if they come by. I vote for Chris Cornell. This guy can do it all, he has a four octave range. Click to expand... I would say Maynard, hands down, for modern rock. I skipped out on seeing them last time around. I think the band has gotten stale and should hang it up. Definitely one of my favorite bands though.

If last goodbye is the only song you've heard by him, consider yourself in the dark. What about Amos Lee kids? Joe Cocker? Antony? Boy George? Mick Hucknall (Simply Red) Huge thumbs up for Chris Cornell, Axl Rose, Thom Yorke, Bono, George Michael, and Aaron Neville. Oh and please stop picking on Steve Perry, he deserves the props - particularly for his live perfomances. (hold up your lighter worthy)

F Faustblix Junior Audioholic Jun 10, 2010 58 0 6 Quebec - Canada Jun 14, 2010 #269 Although I'm not crazy about A Perfect Circle, or Tool... I've seen a Perfect Circle in concert, and Maynard did something that was more warped than anything I'd ever seen or experienced before. The whole outdoor show was moshing, and moving around, and he just hit this one note that shell shocked everyone. It wasn't anything wild like Rob Halford could do, but it was a flawless, heavy hitting tone, that made everyone stop in their tracks. Dead. Zombies! It was messed. Personal favorites: Curtis Mayfield, Halford, Chino Moreno (Deftones).
