Los Straitjackets
Forums:
I think I am going to pass on Dead & Co. at Citi Field this Saturday to check out the instrumental surf music of:
Los Straitjackets at the Boulton Center in Bayshore, NY - 6/24
They have a new CD of Nick Lowe songs, that looks neat.
Nick Lowe is in town, and Marshall Crenshaw who is playing with Los Straightjackets most of the shows, is confirmed to not be at this one.
I need some vocals, no?
Anyone here ever see Los Straitjackets before? What's with the Mexican wrestling masks?
They bring out a stripper/dancer (Ms. Potani) out, for real?
I may sleep on it.

I've got one of their CD's, love it. We go to the Oregon coast a few times a year (mostly musician types), we take turns playing CD's when we're indoors, and Los Straitjackets is always a fave... (props to Don Tiki too)

Los Straitjackets at the
Los Straitjackets at the Boulton center in Bayshore was fun tonight.
A refreshing barrage instrumental surf wave music with killer drum breaks.
A fantastic version of the Beatles "I Fell Fine" and the Rolling Stones "Time is on my Side"
The theme from Batman rocked.
A couple of Nick Lowe songs, Cruel to be Kind, What' so funny about Peace, Love & Understanding to promote their new release of Nick Lowe songs.
The show ended kind of early, as there was no stripper, Nick Lowe, Marshall Crenshaw, or visit from Mickey Hart with the beam from Citi Field.
I would see these guys again, for sure. Fun stuff.
