If you want to know the answer to that question you need to see pete townshend's performance at woodstock.  This man's hands have been known to get cut up from playing so hard, that's why i feel the guitar is the most physical instrument as far as passion, but as far as physical effort, drums are more physical.

I absolutely love most of the bands that played Woodstock. Janis Joplin and Jefferson Airplane being among my favorites. Soundgarden, STP, RHCP, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, are all good. There were others too that were good. I have to agree with you about Simple Plan, Good Charlotte, Click Five, etc. I don't know where rock is going but it needs to come back. They lack substance and they whine a lot. I don't like that at all. I'm hoping that once again something new will come out that will put those bands to shame much like "grunge" did to hair metal

I hate to burst your rock bubble, but the greatest guitarist of all time is probably sat in front of his house playing away without a care in the world, not really giving a flying V who thinks he is the best or the worst for that matter. But if you want the greatest Rock Guitarist/Performer of all time most would say it has to be Jimi Hendrix...

I think that it is the metallica drummer\nmostly because of the fact that the is one of the most accurate drummers in the history in rock. He is not only accurate but he has a large amount of agility when playing the drums. I also have to say travis barker, its amazing to see him play......

Bon Scott for sure. There was another dude even before Bon Scott but i cant think of his name. Bon put AC/DC on the map though. Brian Johnson is ok but he looks and sounds like he's trying to pass a house!( if you know what i mean). For the short time as lead singer, Bon did sound great and visually he played the part well. There will never be another Bon but Brian will do. He's got the band this far hasnt he.

Dimebag Darrel IS/WAS a Great Guitarist, But In My Opinion, He Isn't one of the best. There are others that can top him off easily, I Don't mean to be a hater here, I'm just answering a simple question in my own eyes. But He Is/was a great Guitarist, But I Just don't hear A Uniqueness In His Chords That Says 'He's The Best Ever.'

Sorry, they were never the greatest for me.  You are comparing too many different styles or genre's of rock.  Go listen to some Mountain, look for some of Jeff Becks work.  And for me, the best is CSN&Y though I do not put them in the same genre as the Stones.  One thing I will give the Stones though is longivity.

Oh my God.  Easiest answer I've made all day.  Paul by far.  Ringo was a no-talent hack.  Just listen to his solo albums if you don't agree (if you can stand it).  The White Album has better drum tracks because Ringo didn't play them.  \n\nAnd you know Ringo will be the last one alive, too.

I can't believe no one has said Drums yet. Almost every culture uses them and they've been around forever. So many different sounds can be made with Drums also they seem to pump people up a lot. I've never seen a band get louder cheers from the crowd than when a talented drumer goes into his solo.

Wow!  That's a hard one as, they both are so great! I guess I would have to say Rush though as, they are a true "3 piece"! Van Halen is "3 piece with vocals"! However, I have to say Eddie is the better axe player but, Geddy Lee (in my opinion) smokes Michael Anthony on Bass and vocals!
