For me the definition of a rock band has to be AC/DC - they have it all, the songs, the history, the tragedy, the performances, the identity and the absolute sense of what a rock band should be about.

The best rock band by far was Bon Scott era ACDC, nothing comes close.
This one proves it
YouTube - AC/DC - Go Down (taken from Let There Be Rock album 1977)

Actually, the best 'rock' band I have seen live is.........
Supergrass.
Technically brilliant, and with a sound many more popular bands can't get near.
Maybe not rock, but they do rock and I'd recommend them to anyone.

You should have backed them up with a utube vid

Not the best rock band imo though.
As a technical marvel, lamb of god are pretty amazing but that's very very metal though.
I think I would have to agree with Led Zep, very influential but also a suprisingly timeless sound. ACDC are far more catchy though if that's how you want to rate them.

I have no favorite rock band just tunes
YouTube - The Who - Baba O'riley (live Keith Moon)
YouTube - AC/DC - Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
YouTube - Kiss - Beth - Live
YouTube - Fleetwood Mac - Go Your Own Way - Dance Tour '97
YouTube - Gary Moore with Phil Lynott - Parisienne Walkways (live)
5 of my all time tracks featuring possibly the greatest drummer and the greatest guitarist of all times
(that should kick off a good debate
)

Deep Purple as we're talking Rock bands. From the same era Sabbath, Led Zep, Hendrix, Judas priest etc. They were all real rock not like a lot of the soft cr*p bands that are more worried about their Perrier or hair conditioner being in the hotel room.
Bands of today probably have to go with the Chilli's or Foo Fighters.

Not even my preferred genre of music, but we won't go there as I am sure it won't meet with UB's eclectic tastes and I may get infracted
