Anyone know? I can’t think anyone would really go through life with a name like “?”

From the 96 Tears website:
Lead singer Question Mark, whose real name was actually Rudy Martinez, was born in Mexico in 1945 and raised in Saginaw, Michigan. One report cites that the band in it’s earliest from began in Corpus Chritsi, Texas and migrated to it’s home in Michigan. Not knowing how true this statement to be, we pick up on their story after they became centered in Michigan. The group was originally formed under a different name in Saginaw and consisted of Frank Rodriguez, Jr. on keyboards, Larry Borjas on guitar, drummer Robert Martinez, and Bobby Balderrama. They started to play in Adrian, Michigan around 1964. Group members Larry Borjas and Robert Martinez were also original members of the band but they were drafted into the US Army and were on active duty in Germany when the first album was recorded.; they were replaced by Eddie Serrato and bass player Frank Lugo.
I’ve seen ? on VH1 and he was going on and on about how he’s an alien.
