.....I'm speaking, of course, of the most influencial garage rock band of all time: The Sonics.
Jerry Rosilee has decided to leave the lil cabin alongside the 'crossroads' of his mind to join Rob Lind, Bob Bennett and Larry Papyra this weekend (with additional musicians in support, ala the current New York Dolls approach....) at Steve Van Zant's Cavestomp fest.
This reunion made the front page of the Trib. yesterday; a salute to Ernest Jasmine and the staff for such appropriate perspective has been communicated. The Sonics were, in their time, bigger than the Beatles or Stones in the Northwest. The reuinion will affect Seattle more than the Stooges reunion shook Detroit---Iggy never had top10 hits in the '60's.
Larry has stated success this weekend will result in searching out an "appropriate venue for a local appearance. UPS Fieldhouse?

Re: Our Best Known Export----showcased in NYC this weekend
Thu, January 24, 2008 - 6:00 AM....at this point, a few votes for a Stadium Bowl appearance to coincide with their annual high-fallutin' reunion this summer is a possibility. I would prefer Lincoln Bowl, of course; we gotta deal with their rich kid fans that grew up and still finance this city....
