The more I watch early Smashing Pumpkins performances, the more convinced I am that James and D'arcy's secondary role was to play the parts competently, and their main role was to look cool. I am OK with that.

Billy probably had the most talent. Jerry wrote the best parts. Kim was the coolest. Mike has seemed mostly functional for so long it's easy to forget how on fire he was during that period. Dean was sneaky great. I can't decide.
I went with Mike and Stone. Because I'm not qualified to speak to most of these people, I just went with the two I like the most and am the most familiar with. I probably shouldn't have voted at all. This is how we ended up with Trump. Let me be a cautionary tale for all of RM.

Billy and Kim. Billy has a level of technical wizardry and textural control that no one else can approach. Kim because he plays weird, heavy riffs and he loves the Melvins.
