Artists who still play live properly

[MGB Boy]

So I think anyone with half a brain cell now who has seen an 'artist' performing 'live' (either on TV or in person) has realised that a lot of them 'mime' (I.e cheat).
So I believe we need a good ol' fashioned list. A list of those who still perform properly!

The ones that I can think of off the top of my head are:
Paramore
Lady Gaga
Guns 'N Roses (cant vouch for this as I don't like their new music)
AC/DC

Dragonforce haven't got a vocalist at the moment so that could change.

I think we've probably exhausted all those artists who dont mime now.

Best bet if you don't want miming is to go and see as many live bands in pubs and clubs as you can.
There's a whole world of music out there without joining the sheep and trailing along to see yet another closely choreographed and planned gig by a band who couldn't give a fk as long as they get paid.

More like a "band" who formed after answering a record company's audition, rather than working their way up to the top.

True, but there are plenty of bands who did it the right way, but gave up caring about the performance and just banked the cheque.
