Don’t know what to do tonight? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.

— Dance from the Paleface show at the M Room (15 W. Girard Ave., 215-739-5577) at 8 p.m. to The Very Best show at Johnny Brenda’s (1201 N. Frankford Ave., 215-739-9684) at 9 p.m. The total cost will put you out about $18, but jigging from Paleface’s scruffy-voiced bluegrass to The Very Best’s groovy African pop will put you in that unstoppable dance-party high for hours.

— Eddie Sarfaty, a gay writer and comedian who just released the book Mental: Funny in the Head, has been called the next David Sedaris. Which is kinda like being called the next gay God. He’s performing tonight at L’Etage (624 S. 6th St., 215-592-0656) at 8 p.m. for $20.

— It’s no mistake that that David Swanson published Daybreak: Undoing the Imperial Presidency and Forming a More Perfect Union, a book that criminalizes the Bush administration, in September of this year. He argues that Bush & Co. did such damage to our Constitutional rights that there’s still a whole lot of work to be done to get them back, even with President Obama in the house. He’ll be reading from his book tonight at Villanova University (800 Lancaster Ave., 610-519-6000) at 7:30 p.m. for free.
