You can browse our full NYC show calendar for all of tonight’s shows, but here are some highlights…

Dick Diver, Green Pages, Beastie Vee @ Cake Shop
Australia’s Dick Diver are in the fine jangly tradition of The Go-Betweens, making heartfelt guitar pop with just enough rust on the edges. This is just-added show and openers Green Pages feature members of a number of Cake Shop regulars (German Measels, Sapphire Mansions / The Beets). $8 at the doo.

Swirlies, Laced, Kudgel, DJ Ning Nong @ Baby’s All Right
Veteran shoegaze band Swirlies are touring in support of new reissue of their seminal Blonder Tongue Audio Baton LP, and while they aren’t performing it in full like they did at Silent Barn yesterday, expect a lot of that album tonight. Also on the bill are fellow Boston vets Kudgel (who Swirlies released a split with in 1992) and Laced, the punky side project of Beach Fossils Dustin Payseur.

Dikembe, Slingshot Dakota, Big Eater, For Everest @ Shea Stadium
Gainesville emo revivalists Dikembe were set to be on tour with Empire! Empire!, who had to drop off, but Dikembe still made it here and they play with driving pop duo Slingshot Dakota.

Wild Pink, Gulfer, Vasudeva, Living Room, People Like You @ Cameo
Speaking of emo revival, if you dig mathy Kinsella-style emo, this whole bill (except Wild Pink, who are more indie rock) has elements of that.

Chris Gethard @ Union Hall
Chris is doing another of his “Career Suicide” shows at Union Hall, which will have “an hour of stand up focusing on suicide, alcoholism, and all the other funniest parts of life.”

The Grateful Dead‘s Chicago shows are this weekend, and there are a few places you can watch the simulcast in the NYC-area.
