Tuesday Happenings

Music

-- Daedalus, a musician from Los Angeles, makes gloriously weird electronic music that shares stylistic elements with dance music (breakbeats, rolling bass) but sounds, alternately, like a mind game and a pop confection. With Eliot Lipp and Machine Drum. Oxfam Cafe, Tufts University, 9 p.m. $5.

Progressive Dinners

-- North End Exposure guides diners through four courses at four restaurants (Prezza, Lucca, Tresca, and Taranta: Does the name of every North End restaurant end in "a"?). We guess that it's a good way to tour the North End without feeling like a tourist. Start at Prezza, 24 Fleet St., North End, 6:30 p.m. $50.

Live Karaoke

-- Karaoke is good for crooning, but those who prefer to rock are, generally speaking, better off posing in front of a mirror in their own house. Tonight, the tables turn. Break out your best rock moves (but please rock out with your cock in) in front of a live band at Milky Way's semi-monthly Live Karaoke. Milky Way, 403 Centre St., Jamaica Plain, 9:00pm. $3.
