A dizzying array of great shows for your Thursday:

Neutral Milk Hotel, so sublime at Coachella heads up a great lineup at the Hollywood Bowl that also features the Breeders and Daniel Johnston. Caveat: The notoriously camera-shy Jeff Mangum has stipulated that Neutral Milk Hotel’s set not be shown on the Bowl’s big screens. So bring binoculars.
Blake Mills celebrates the release of his album “Heigh Ho” with a show at the El Rey Theatre.
Meg Myers – that’s the new Robert Hales-directed video for “Go,” above, from her “Make a Shadow” EP – rocks the Echo, supported by Irontom and Bizzy Kiddo.
‣ Big night at the Shrine Expo Hall, with Fatboy Slim heading up a lineup that includes Nervo and Oliver Heldens.
Karen O does the second of three nights of her “Crush Songs” at the Masonic Lodge at Hollywood Forever Cemetery
Old Crow Medicine Show rumbles into the Wiltern behind their latest album “Remedy.”
‣ U.K. duo Monarchy and M83’s J. Laser team up for a night of electro at the Echoplex.
‣ Minnesota indie-rockers Cloud Cult recently released an acoustic album titled “Unplug,” and they do two sets at the Troubadour, one acoustic and one electric, that are being billed as “An Evening With …”
‣ And punk-rockers Roll the Tanks play the Satellite behind their debut album “Broke Til Midnight,” with TS & the Past Haunts and Weird Sex supporting.
