I saw Dave Davies last year. Awful show.

If you want to see a Kinks show then the closest & best you'll get
is the Kast-Off Kinks.
Tremendous stuff.

I used to think the animosity between Ray and Dave was mostly a publicity thing to create tension and get attention. I knew Dave felt his brother lorded over him, but I didn't think there was real animosity.
But now it seems to me that Dave really has some long-standing resentments and dislike of his brother, and Ray is unable or unwilling to smooth things over.

Things looked promising three years or so back when Ray started seriously talking up the reunion but Dave did an interview shortly thereafter making it clear he didn't want to work with Mick Avory. (Or any other members of previous Kinks lineups) That seemed to sour things.

A reunion at this stage would not only be pointless, but humiliating and depressing for everyone involved.

I absolutely agree.
The Kinks are forgotten by the general public. They would have to play for a handful of fans in some tiny spot in Soho. The Kinks were always dwarfs compared to the Stones, Beatles, The Who. A couple of good songs they had, but so did the Searchers.
