"THE FIGGS (Friday) Steeped in the verities of 1960s garage-rock, folk-rock and the Beatles, along with latter-day bands like the Replacements, the Figgs cling to the idea that songs are telegrams from the heart. They sing hoarse, tuneful, unguarded rock with titles like ''Excuse the Lame Excuse,'' and they've held on to their rawness as they've been bounced from label to label. With American Tenants and Cathy. At 9 p.m., Knitting Factory, 74 Leonard Street, TriBeCa, (212) 219-3132, knittingfactory.com; $10 in advance, $12 at the door. (Jon Pareles)"
