SPECIAL EVENT/MUSIC: It's one of the biggest party nights of the year, and if you are going to eat all that turkey, you might as well dance and make room for it tonight. Just some of the cornucopia of offerings tonight include Giant Panda Gorilla Dub Squad's Thanksgiving Eve party at Water Street Music Hall (204 N. Water St., waterstreetmusic.com, 8:30 p.m., $10-$12), Hate Machine's Turkey Bonanza at Montage Music Hall (50 Chestnut St., themontagemusichall.com, $5, 7 p.m., with seven bands running all night), Thanksgiving Eve Fundraiser Bash for Devyn Rose featuring Teressa Wilcox & The Filthy Brothers Blues Band (Lovin' Cup, 300 Park Point Dr., lovincup.com, 7 p.m., $5), Thanksgiving Eve Party with Me & The Boyz (Captain Jack's, 8505 Greig St., Sodus, 9 p.m.), and the Night Before Thanksgiving/Rocket Fuel launch event with Chelsey & Whit at Marge's Lakeside Inn (4909 Culver Road, 7 p.m.).

COMEDY: Laugh off the woes of spending painful hours with your family this Thanksgiving at Talent's Thanksgiving Comedy Jam. The show begins tonight at 8 p.m. at the Auditorium Theatre ( 885 E.

MUSIC: For years I thought the Good Rats were from Rochester, they played here so much. These Long Island barroom rock 'n' roll underdogs have rocked and rolled forever (since 1964, to be exact). Their hit Tasty was my favorite air-guitar-in-my-underpants tunes. They'll be joined by Rochester troubadour Dave McGrath and the Zeppelin tribute The Sound Remains the Same tonight at the Main Street Armory for the Tribute to the Troops concert (900 E. Main St., 4 p.m., $10-$45, rochestermainstreetarmory.com). Proceeds benefit Warriors Salute.

ART: Calm holiday jitters with "Tone it Down a Notch: Minimal Art," the Shoe Factory Art Co-op's November art exhibit. The show is open today noon-5 p.m. Free admission. 250 N. Goodman St. shoefactoryarts.com.
