*MGMT's colossally anticipated second studio album, Congratulations, is already all over your favorite local torrent search engine. Experience it nice and loud at a listening party tonight at the Vagabond -- and then, of course, buy a copy at Sweat Records when it officially comes out on April 13. Admission is free before 11 p.m., $5 after. Click here to visit Sweat's post about the event.

*Rising local favorite Radioboxer plays the cheekily titled I'll Never Let You Go, Jack party at Titanic. It's sponsored by WVUM and admission is free. Click here to read full details, and a Q&A with band member Jota Dazza.

*Ice Cream's much heralded music and art party, Interstellar, has moved from its original venue to Sweat Records, and lost Glocca Morra from the lineup. No matter, though, because what it's also lost is its cover charge, and the party still rages on. Click here for full details.

*Q American Barbeque is Jonathan Eismann's latest restaurant in his growing Design District empire. And while the barbecue here may be slightly dressed up, the atmosphere isn't buttoned-up. In fact, it hosts live music every weekend now, tonight from badass blues/rock cover band the Cat Daddies. Cover is technically free, but of course you'll buy food or drinks. Click here for full details.

*The monthly Havana San Juan party lands at Grass tonight, with live music and dance lessons, and even a cigar wrapper. Tickets are $10 in advance from wantickets.com. Click here for full details.

*Local singer/songwriter legend Jim Camacho is still performing behind his latest album, last year's Beachfront Defeat. Tonight, he celebrates the release of the video for its new single, "Is It Me," at Bardot. Admission is $5. Click here for full details.
