Tonight I'm going to make good on my promise to get out there, at least from time to time, and am going with my husband to go see Josh Ritter perform live at Webster Hall.
I first discovered Ritter's sound courtesy of the website 3hive. It only took one hearing of his song "Thin Blue Flame," and I was hooked. I downloaded that song, listened to it over and over, and knew all the lyric to it (as well as to a few of Ritter's other songs) before that weekend was out. So you can imagine how psyched I was to hear he'd be touring through NYC.
Going to see his performance tonight is not only a way to enjoy something cool my city has to offer (although admittedly not one of its countless free marvels), but also enables me to appreciate music at a new level. Owning CDs is good, but attending live performances -- particularly more intimate ones -- can be transcendent. Here's hoping tonight proves to be one such show.
