For aggro generation, are you talking about slow song? That's the biggest aggro generator I've run into, and I've known paladins, SKs, and even warriors that can out-aggro that song.
Also, bards get crap for tanking skills compared to the true tanks, and even rangers have higher tanking ability caps/earlier levels learned.
But I guess with enough Singing Steel and stacking AC in every slot possible, you could tank. But then wouldn't you want to try to find AC neck/ears?

You can mez, charm, aoe slow, snare, you're probably pulling... if you want to take aggro from ANYONE, you can. You can find ac neck and ears, but they still won't be as useful as hp/mr/dex/cha in as many situations, as the AC can be pretty sparse for those areas.
In most high level groups, you're going to be crowd control anyway and they will want you to stay out of melee. Till then holding aggro is the prime requisite to being the group tank and I believe the bard excels at both that and mitigation.
