Re: Any Fans of the Sonics?
Never heard of them. Were they a local band with regional hits? It's unusual I haven't heard of them. Can you name something that might be familar?

Re: Any Fans of the Sonics?
The Sonics are an American garage rock band from Tacoma, Washington, originating from the early and mid-1960s. Among The Sonics' contemporaries were The Kingsmen, The Wailers, The Drastics, The Dynamics, The Regents, and Paul Revere & the Raiders. This movement is credited with founding Seattle's well-known music scene which survives to the present.

I just stumbled across this write up on the Sonics on thepulplist.com
The Sonics
The Sonics were the first true punk band from way back in the ’60s. They never really received much recognition by the mainstream, even though their innovative sound had a little bit of everything blended together. What stands out the most is their ’50s-style blues shouting, raunchy grit, groovy rhythms, and disturbing lyrics. This is the band that started it all a decade before any of the first contemporary punk acts even picked up a guitar.
