Straitjacket, LIVE! (Live Friday 029)

First formed in 1998, Brian & Jeff first used the name Straitjacket a year later, and have since been holding down the the Spirit-of-’77-Punk-Rock fort here in the Portland area. Now, with several 7”s under their belt, and a full-length album (entitled “Modern Thieves”), it’s clear that they are going to continue to keep punk alive using any means necessary. Fortunately for you, that means fantastic performances of energetic songs.
