the greatest front man ever!
whats your thoughts...
mine is and probably allways will be Freddie Mercury... there is no one that comes close to his stage presence...
never has a single man had a sold-out wembley stadium in the palm of his hand.... other than Freddie.

its a hard one to be honest imo..
you have your likes of freddie mercury/ robbie williams (forgive me lord for i have sinned saying that name)
/mick jagger etc who are great entertainers on stage going around all theatrical and that but then you have your front men like liam gallagher/ian brown for expamples who can just stand there and have such a stage presence aswell
i wasnt really a fan of queen tbh so i would say mick jagger or paul weller or liam gallagher personally

PassionFord Post Whore!!
We'll if we're talking frontmen without guitars (free to roam) then i'd say the man that:
- Took a flying leap off his ramp on the custom built stage and broke his ankle
-Changes clothes for every song
- Has a steering wheel as the bottom of his long mic stand
- Jumped in the crowd and smacked someone as security weren't listening
- Had the spotlight on him even though Slash was next to him
- and had Queen/Freddie as his favourite

Freddie Mercury (Legend, R.I.P)
Bruce Dickenson (Never really got into Maiden but got a few albums and vids now)
James Hetfield (During Seek And Destroy Live Shit in mexico, to one bloke in the crowd - "Hey, you having fun man ? Cheer up fuck )

For me if we are talking purely show and not based on musical taste etc.. then I'd have to go with freddie, although I hate queen.
For talent/frontman of a proper band I'd say either Jagger or Daltry for me.

Not really my thing but Bruce Sprinsteen deserves a mention.
Or more up my street, the people I have seen and thought were great:
1, Steven Tayler
2, James Hetfield
3, Robert Plant
Or other type of front men i.e not singers, has to be angus young.
