Notes From All Under: Dave Alvin and Los Straitjackets at Johnny D's

On Wednesday night we crowded into a *packed* Johnny D's for an incredible, ear-toasting musical experience. We were really psyched about this point and bought tickets as shortly as we found out about it; Johnny D's offered a few of their tables with a prix fixe dinner and we snapped that up. As it turned out we were sitting at the very front table, about 5 feet from the bass drum being hammered by Teen Spirit of Los Straitjackets and in peril of being whacked by Eddie's guitar neck when he started with the moves.
