The concept: What would be the ideal soundtrack of a fried-chicken joint—here or anywhere? Probably a mix of Southern soul, funk and R&B; various Latin American and African rhythms; and Jamaican ska and reggae—in other words, global roots music. Which is what DJs Rex Dart and Ghostride use to cut through the smoky haze of the Double Down, allowing you to see the Shack Shackette go-go girls, as well as the free fried chicken on offer to paying drinkers.

Events in Las Vegas get canceled every now and then. It doesn’t hurt checking with the venue to confirm the listing.
