I don´t really think so...animosities among the brothers still very strong, and if you listen to Dave´s last gigs, Ray is better off with his current bad, sad as it may be...and I´m a big big Kinks fan, travelling a lot to see Ray (and, until 2004 even Dave) and did a lot of interviews.

If it happens, I would be glad. But there´s too much tension, and a tour with those guys would not go with such a financial appeal as it does with a Stones tour.

They are reissuing Muswell Hillbillies as a 2cd set in August 2013.
they can't be that out of practice. remember all the guys they would get on stage with them still play as the kast off kinks and ray has joined them on stage so its just adding dave back in the micQuote

Yes, sure they could do one show and record it, but - would it be good? Would Avory join them?
The fascinating bout the KINKS live was captured in a few albums (One For The Road f.e.) when they were really a touring band, and could nail it.
Even the Stones play probably better now than at their first Trabendo gig last year. You need to tour to make it happen imho

Next year the Kinks officially turn 50. Anyone think the band or at least the Davies brothers will do anything to mark the occasion?

Pretty much my thoughts as well. I'd love it and hope it happens, but it seems so doubtful. They seem to still really not like each other, and Dave can't seem to get over it at all. Sad, even moreso because you have to feel that its more than a band. Its a family that can't seem to come together.Quote

In America they had a lot more hits than in England. Come Dancing, Destroyer, were both top ten.
