Music Menu / News DJ Rashad, Captain Crunk, Kottonmouth Kings and The Black Keys tonight (Sept. 10)

DJ RASHAD & CAPTAIN CRUNK Maybe Chicago-style juke music is what Charlotte's party scene has been missing all this time. When was the last time you really danced in a spot? Sure, juke caters toward those with footwork but otherwise, what's not to love? DJ Rashad is a name synonymous with the subgenre, and his sweat-inducing and ass-bouncing creations will not disappoint. $5, Dharma Lounge, www.dharmacharlotte.com (Mike McCray)

KOTTONMOUTH KINGS The musical equivalent of a tinfoil-wrapped packet of seeds-n-stems, Kottonmouth Kings is the answer to the (musical?) question, "What do you get when you combine Everlast, a Sublime cover band, Hot Topic, Myrtle Beach and a work release program?" Used to be that people liked to get all smoked up and then throw on Sticky Fingers or 461 Ocean Boulevard. Them days is over, it appears. There's nothing to see (not to mention listen to) here that Cypress Hill didn't do 10 times better, earlier and more consistently. Skip it, spark it and throw on Paul's Boutique instead. No sense in harshing yourself any more than you have to. $29, The Fillmore Charlotte, www.livenation.com (Timothy C. Davis)

THE BLACK KEYS We're pretty sure that this show won't be affected by pigeon shit. In the meantime, we can expect that The Black Keys is going to do its best to steal the spotlight from headliners Kings of Leon. The blues-rock duo has been gaining popularity over the years, and is touring in support of its latest album, Brothers. Opening for Kings of Leon with The Whigs. $49.35-$71. 7:30 p.m. Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre. www.livenation.com (Jeff Hahne)
