Concerts: www.bowerypresents.com (ticketmaster is a rip off, buying tickets directly at the venue's box office recommended)
Bars: http://www.yelp.com/biz/ace-bar-… (surrounded by lots of other little East Village bars like Pianos and Max Fish)
Dancing: http://www.yelp.com/biz/gallery-… (crowd is not so douchy, albeit slightly hipster-y)
Interesting Food: http://www.yelp.com/biz/mono-mon… (Korean fried chicken + Jazz! This place just opened but already has great reviews)
The Locals? No such thing anymore, everyone here is a transplant from some boring Midwestern American state. If you want to meet the locals, go to Queens.
