"I feel naked," our friend leaned over and whispered. We nodded our head. "Exposed, but in a good way," we replied, in awe of the man who was causing this feeling. It was the third song in and Damien Rice was alone on the stage, bathed in red light, with only his voice and his guitar. He sang, "It's not that we're scared/It's just that it's delicate," with such candor that the vulnerability in his voice blanketed the audience, covering us in that emotion. All this, even without the cello.

Tonight. 8 p.m. Damien Rice. Mann Music Center. Joygasm.

Every Tuesday and Thursday, we'll be posting events that are going on sale during the current week. This Tuesday post only collects the early announcements, so definitely check back on Thursday for the latest ticket news.

Phillyist loves a good list of things, especially a countdown of best things, and especially especially a countdown of the best music - there are few things that excite more controversy, argument, and occasionally even thoughtful and considered discussion. So Phillyist has been pretty much obsessed with 88.5 WXPN's list of the 885 All Time Greatest Albums, which they've been revealing over the last two and a half weeks (spin them up on your radio dial, or listen to their live stream here). The list was compiled based on top ten album lists sent in by listeners of the radio station (including yours truly), although how exactly they got from those lists to this one is a bit of a mystery to us; we assume it involved a blender.
