The Avengers playing CBGB | 2006 Tour Dates

"The Avengers were a San Francisco based punk band in the first wave of American punk......The Avengers opened for the Sex Pistols in San Francisco for their final show at Winterland, and their 4-song EP was produced by Steve Jones of the Sex Pistols.......The CD "The American in Me" released in 2004, has 4 studio tracks, and 8 live tracks recorded at the Old Waldorf in 1979 . With the release of the new CD, vocalist Penelope Houston has joined with original guitarist Greg Ingraham to bring the Avengers back to life, completing the line-up with bassist Joel Reader and drummer Luis Illades. The new group is sometimes called the "scAvengers", and is playing a few select shows on the West Coast and the UK....." [Wikipedia]
