Does rockstar mean being an a-hole on stage? There's plenty of rock stars today. You don't need to be a drug addict or incite riots at your shows.
The people who make a public show of that, their music usually sucks anyway

What about Maynard?
But can you even count him as a “front man” anymore?

He got mad at the internet and Streisand effected himself.

Maybe, maybe not but he absolutely is in the discussion. I do know this though. Alice in chains was the best of the grunge movement and there hasn't been a better "rock and roll voice" since he died.

Dave Grohl is probably the last true "rock star" we'll ever see.

Jack White doesn't count as a rock star?

I’ve seen a concert or two since 32 years ago and one of the coolest things I’ve seen a Rockstar do, Shinedown lead singer got off the stage walked through the crowd and took selfies while belting out a song.
I’m not saying that he is the Last Great Rock Star, but from perspective, you have to be part of the whole experience to be a RockSTAR. Change with the times and roll with the punches.
Everyone’s experiences are different in music.

Not like dave grohl, i don't think.
Dave grohl seems to have a really good time being a rock star. He's gota a great stage presence, a likable personality and just looks like a guy that liked to chase pussy and shite like that.
To me, he's somewhat reminiscent of david lee roth.
