Radiohead completely destroys Arcade Fire both in studio and live. It's not even close.

lolradiohead
yea Thom Yorke moaning on incessantly over IDM beats is so sick guys
Radiohead hasn't come out with a truly outstanding album in what? 11 years?
Funeral is better than anything lolradioheadsux put out, outside of OK Computer and MAYBE Kid A

I've seen 6 of the top 10 live and wouldn't put any in my own personal top 10 of live bands. One of them (Radiohead), I'd rank among the worst live bands I have ever seen.
That's a horrible list.

I've been off the Radiohead live act bandwagon ever since.

Muse needs to be somewhere on the list (unless they don't tour anymore cause I don't actually follow them).
I never have really listened to their music but they were awesome at voodoo fest a few years ago. Crazy production and all that good stuff.

I don't know. I'd have to think on it. But being a great live act is different than being a great studio artist. I love De La Soul, for example. I think 3 Feet High and Rising is one of the greatest albums ever recorded by mankind. I love all of their recorded stuff. That said, they are utter shite live.
Off the top of my head, and in no order, the best live acts I've ever seen (which means some of these will be really outdated):
Fugazi
Peter Gabriel
They Might Be Giants
Nas
FOALS
Drive by Truckers
The Hold Steady
Nicky da B
AC/DC
Less Than Jake
ETA: Damn it, should've had Arcade Fire on there. They were amazing. And Man Man. Holy shite, I thought I was gonna die at their show. Oh, and of course the Residents.

Pretty lame list, but I guess it's what is trendy right now.

That is actually a pretty hilarious episode

I don't even really like FOALS. My wife dragged me to the show because she really likes them. Unbelievably great live. Had the lead singer asked us to go into the balcony and murder everyone up there, we probably would have. He whipped the crowd into a frenzy. Just an amazing show.
If anyone has the chance to see them, you totally should.

I love Illmatic, but I thought Nas was meh live.
Fugazi in their prime would be awesome to see.
Ween is one of the best shows I've seen.
