THE VISULITE THEATRE From now-playing-larger-venue bands like Grace Potter and the Nocturnals to locals who pick it for CD release parties (Simplified, The New Familiars, Jon Lindsay, etc.), the Visulite Theatre is a grand stepping stone on the Charlotte music scene. They'll pull in some of New Orleans' finest blues and jazz musicians one night, rock the doors off the place the next; they may offer an intimate acoustic setting or shed light on the world of burlesque depending on the mood they're in, but always with class and style. 1615 Elizabeth Ave. 704-358-9200 www.visulite.com
