I saw them "back in the day" (relatively) and recently, and many times in between. The era doesn't matter, Kim is as vital to SY as Thurston or Lee. She is an integral part of their sound.
Another Beatles comparison- sorry - but she's SY's Mccartney. No, it's not Lee. He's the Harrison... the musical genius who occasionally gets tossed a song to sing that blows everyone away. But Kim is absolutely essential for SY.
They couldn't replace her, no more than the Beatles could have reunited in the 90s without John. No more than Nirvana can reunite.
