Try Hammill and VdGG.

And Jethro Tull. Ian Anderson practically defines the word "frontman"!

Actually, it must be said that when I saw VDGG live t'other month, Hammill seemed a bit awkward onstage. It looked like he didn't really know what to do with himself.

I had the same experience with your beloved Ian Anderson a few years ago when I attended a Tull concert  . He seemed really nervous, the poor bloke.

Still it was great to have been to a Tull concert. A dream come true at last.

From the list I vote for Gabriel..

I think the greatest frontman ever - trying to be objective- was Freddie Mercury. I'm not a huge Queen fan, but not only was he a brilliant vocalist, but I have never seen someone command an audience like him. He was a natural performer.

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

 Jon Anderson is the only one from the list who I have seen live.

 I'm quite a big fan of Yes, but without experiencing the others I don't want to vote.

What about Peter Hamill?

From your list, though, I'd pick the other Peter of course!
