I've noticed from a number of posts that there must be a fair number of people posting who were heavily into the early 80's punk scene, particularly from California. This begs the question, was the band Black Velvet Flag (Novelty lounge act who covered early HC punk classics in a 'parent-friendly' style) responsible for turning any punker onto the Lounge scene & then onto Tiki?

If not, how did so many punks make such a radical leap?
