First of all, the Smiths can’t properly reunite. Andy Rourke is dead. They missed their window. The light that never goes out? Extinguished. With all due respect to Bonehead, this isn’t an Oasis situation where all you need are the two key players. The Smiths were a four-person unit in which every member mattered. On the other hand, the Rolling Stones are going to keep touring as the Rolling Stones as long as Mick Jagger and Keith Richards are out there (and maybe even with just Jagger someday if the earnings projections justify it?), even though Charlie Watts was an essential component of their sound. Perception is everything in these situations, and for many people, Morrissey and Johnny Marr together onstage would be more than enough.
