The Worst.
Well, but, they still didn't form the band. Brian Jones did. And if some plaque were put up in Penge saying Bill Wyman formed The Rolling Stones, I honestly think he would be embaressed and again pointed out that it was indeed Brian Jones who was the founder. Bill Wyman cares about such details.

How do you found a band that doesn't exist? Joe Strummer was the last of the original four members to join the Clash, but it wasn't the Clash until he joined. With the Sex Pistols, it was Wally Nightengale who was instrumental in putting together Glen Matlock and Steve Jones, but he didn't even wind up in the group, being replaced by John Lydon. Brian had an idea he wanted to have a blues group, and when Mick and Keith joined, there was one. Until then it was just a notion.

You found a band of musicians, the founding of a band is the drawing of people together to play......(laying the foundation......(I would say.........then if it's any good, then you name it.......

Mr Kite's english is not very precise, when cars form a queue it's all of them not just two.
If he's going retain the word form in that sense it should be 'Mick & Keith joined with Brian Jones & others and formed the Rolling Stones'.............

Actually, his point is that Brian is irrelevant to the plaque in Dartford. It could have said "helped form" the Rolling Stones, and that would have been more accurate.
