You want a good time? As we set out to find the best live act in hard rock and metal, the two acts in this Round 1 matchup have left many a music fan happy with their performances over the years, as they both know how to play to the crowd.

On one side of the pairing, you've got Foo Fighters. In recent years, Dave Grohl has expanded the "core four" ideal to include a few additional players that allows for a more diverse set of full-throttle rockers, intimate acoustic moments and sing-along favorites. And just to keep things fresh, Foo Fighters have become adept at throwing in interesting cover songs just for fun. And has often been stated, Foo Fighters will play until they turn off the power. Heck, Grohl will even play with a broken leg!

However, their opponent in this matchup is a musician who also knows a thing or two about giving a diverse and entertaining rock show. Kid Rock is surrounded by the Twisted Brown Trucker band and their performances are always crowd pleasers. Fans are guaranteed to get a high energy rock show filled with adrenaline-fused rockers, songs that spark nostalgia showing Rock's influences and some tried and true covers thrown into the mix as well.

So think it over and let us know which of these two great live acts deserves to advance. You can vote once per hour for your favorite concert performer through the deadline of Tuesday, July 14 at 10AM ET.
