This is the New Year's Eve saved by the Sonics! The Sonics announced late in 2010 that they'd be playing a show down in Olympia and we jumped at the chance. It just so happens that we have 2 good friends living in Olympia and we were able to crash at their fantastic digs.
If you don't know the Sonics, I highly recommend you catch up and check them out ASAP. Especially considering they have a new album out now and are on an extensive world tour.
