Spin comes up with a list of the 25 hottest live bands now. Surprising omission is the Foo Fighters. Interesting that Mars Volta opens up for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Of course, Spin makes you buy the issue to get the Top 10. Here they are:

10. The Dirtbombs
9. Prince
8. The Hives
7. Green Day
6. White Stripes
5. Radiohead
4. Red Hot Chili Peppers
3. Arcade Fire
2. The Stooges
1. U2
