Love her, hate her, envy her meaty fashion taste: Either way, there’s no getting around the fact that we’re all living in a much better place when the Lady Gagas of the world are dominating the airwaves instead of, say, bands such as Creed, Nickleback, and Limp Bizkit. Those who’ve understandably grown weary of hearing Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face” on the radio would do well to remember a darker time, back in the early ’00s, when it was impossible to drive anywhere without hearing the abysmally awful, how-did-humanity-come-to-this single, “Nookie.” (Seriously, even if you had your radio turned off, you would inevitably hear it blasting from the SUV of some fist-pumping, flavor-savor-sporting, nu-metal-loving meathead.) So, if you’re tired to death of hearing about Lady Gaga’s attention-grabbing antics, take heart in the fact that not only could it be much, much worse, but it actually used to be. Lady Gaga performs at 8 p.m. at Wells Fargo Center; tickets are $49.50-$175.

WXPN welcomes Canadian indie-rockers Broken Social Scene to Theatre Of Living Arts. The performances begin at 8 p.m.; tonight’s show is sold out, but tickets are still available for tomorrow’ nights show, $35.25.

Philly-born-and-raised soul musician Bilal celebrates the release of his new album, Airtight’s Revenge, at Johnny Brenda’s. The performances begins at 9 p.m.; tickets to the $21+ show are $20-$25.
