Ben Alvers
RatzTuner was put together in approximately 1972 - 1973. We began playing at the Black Night in Puyallup and Port Townsend and other places that would have us.Ben Alvers came into the band a little later and absolutely hated the name. That’s when it was changed to Argus.
RatzTuner by the way, if I remember, was coined by Boughter, Hoyt and Don Golden as a name for ketch up, as in, please pass the ketchup.
