      Josh G I saw The Sonics in March when they headlined for Robert Plant. They were pure energy! My husband walked out of the concert wanting to resurrect his old high school garage band! Seriously, young musicians and bands could learn so much from them. And yeah, the drummer never quits!

    I still remember very well, it was in 1972 in Paris (France), I was a kid and I asked my older brother: Elvis, The Stones, The Beatles, Chuck Berry, but tell me, what is Rock N Roll?. He came back with a vinyl 45 rpm, put it on the record player and... "Have Love will travel" changed my life, my vision of Rock. I never got over it. Thanks to all of you guys for this incredible performance. You are amazing. Cheers. Zep.

Saw them all the time playing all the dance venues and community halls all over the Northwest WA ...they were kick ass then, no other band sounded like them. When this was filmed 2015 they could still lay it down although Jerry could not scream like he could back in 63, 64, 65 got to give him his due cuz he was 71 when this was filmed.

      Tacoma is right although in the 60's The Sonics played plenty of gigs in Seattle and all over the state of WA and Oregon. Tacoma had something about it that brought out the best in NW rock musicians. Rockin Robin Roberts and also the Wailers (had to change their name to The Fabulous Wailers due to competing bands with similar name) were from Tacoma. Rockin Robin recorded Louis Louis with the Wailers and I think it is the best version out there. Tacoma was the $hit when it came to NW rock n roll.

      @@UberLummox The heavy emphasis on the drums, particularly the hard pounding bass drum,were (are) a key part of the Sonics sound. But all of their instruments hit it hard. The first time I heard the Sonics version of Louie Louie back in about 1966 I was blown away. Much harder edge and completely different sound than the Kingsmen or PR&R. I was really proud that the Sonics were a NW band.

    This combination of special guests, original members and (comparatively) youthful replacements totally rock the joint at Easy Street Records. If watching/listening to these Sonics fails to raise your blood pressure or get you fired up, see your Doctor (or maybe undertaker) immediately---'cause there's something terribly wrong with you. This is what actual Rock And Roll played with passion by a bunch of sweaty guys who don't give a damn about the year on their birth certificates is all about. If just the audio/video of this event rocks this hard, imagine what it was like to be in the room!

      They were pretty much a NW rock n roll band of the 60's well known in WA, Oregon and Idaho but never had any really big hit songs that went nation wide. George Harrison was well aware of The Sonics and was a fan.

      @@albertgt3007 I have read in a few places that he was. And he was also a fan of the NW band the Wailers (later called the Fabulous Wailers). From the Seattle Times Aug 24, 1995 "The English were especially receptive to imported Wailers records. George Harrison was talking about the Wailers as an influence when the Beatles first started. And after the Wailers came such other Northwest bands as Paul Revere and the Raiders, the Kingsmen, the Sonics and a slew of other grunge forerunners."

    The Sonics are one of the hardest rocking bands from the sixties with their brand of R&B Rock. The original hard rocking band out of Seattle. Years before Grunge.
    It’s good to see them do their thing after all these years. They still have got their intensity and edge.

    I love how the guitar player plays the same guitar every song. Some guitar players use 7 or 8 (or more) different guitars during a concert. Is that really Necessary? Evidently not when your playing kick ass rock n roll. AC/DC was just like the Sonics using same guitars for the whole concert.
