Reunion
In 2006, the surviving Saicos got together in their hometown, Lince, Lima, for some commemorative events. They apparently have not played together in public since 1966 (although local reports from Peru dispute this; there was reportedly a reunion gig in 2009). Erwin Flores made a public reappearance in Peru after 40 years, singing "Demolición" at a small concert with the garage band Manganzoides as a guest, in May 2006. He also performed that song in Madrid at the Joy Eslava Club, fronting Spanish band Wau y Los Arrghs! in 2009. In 2010 Los Saicos played on their first international concert ever at Spain, since the ABC newspaper called them 'the first punk band in the world'.
In 2011, 'Saicomania', a docummentary about the band's career, was released at 'Julieta' theatre, Miraflores, Lima, Perú. On the same day, Los Saicos played together, with the presence of the local psychedelic garage band Los Silver Mornings. The documentary was later shown in public in San Francisco, with, among others, Jello Biafra from the Dead Kennedys in attendance.
Also, in 2011, they played another 2 wild reunion shows in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
