Danielle Staub can't sing

Posted By on Wed, Sep 1, 2010 at 11:00 AM

OK, people, let's go over this again — just because you have a reality show, doesn't mean that you can sing, or that you should make an album. Sweet baby Jesus, you ladies need to stop trying to do this!

I'm speaking to you — Paris Hilton, Heidi Montag and, now, Danielle Staub.

Three Bad Jacks and Budweiser Superfest tonight (Sept. 1)

THREE BAD JACKS If a healthy helping of punk-infused rockabilly is what you're looking for, then by all means, this is where you need to be. Slapping bass, a hint of Elvis, some Ramones mixed in — Three Bad Jacks are sure to leave you greased up and rocked out. The openers are definitely worth catching as well — JT and The Dragpipes fuses Jem Crossland with Tommy Ray into a local rockabilly act that's one of the best around. $10, Double Door Inn, www.doubledoorinn.com (Jeff Hahne)

BUDWEISER SUPERFEST Few have continued the legacy of soulful singers from Charlotte making a splash on the National stage like Anthony Hamilton. His down-home, raw and heartfelt ballads have become his trademark and he's guaranteed to deliver live in front of a hometown audience headlining Budweiser Superfest with R&B crooners Kem, Jaheim and Raheem DeVaughn also on the bill. Word to the wise: Keep one hand on your lady all night long. $48.25-$96.30, 7 p.m. Road Runner Mobile Amphitheatre, www.livenation.com (Mike McCray)
