You know, I watch a lot of youtube clips of live performances. I am disappointed in the lack of live vocal talent more than I care to be. Several groups, however, NEVER let me down in their live vocal and musical aspects:
Journey (go figure)
Cheap Trick
Boston
Kiss
Kenney Chesney
Garth Brooks
Rush
What about you? Who do feel lives up to the hype in a live setting?

George Strait (haven't seen him live in 8 years though)
I'm so jealous that you got to see Boston live, Knox... Sure wish I had.

Journey
Boston - Saw them in 2002 on the "Corporate America" tour. Delp's voice was good but not what it once was and Cosmo hit all the high notes flawlessly. Together, they were awesome. They went perfect with the wall of sound guitars as they had 5 guitarists on stage at the same time.
Yes - Jon Anderson isn't my favorite singer but he sounds as good live as in studio.
Rush - Geddy Lee ain't Steve Perry but he pulls it off live and doesn't try to hit the high notes that he can no longer even come close to.
