Nebraska wunderkind Conor Oberst is taking Bright Eyes on the road for what's billed as An Evening of Solo & Collaborative Performances Featuring Bright Eyes, Jim James (Of My Morning Jacket), and M. Ward.
 The three singer/songwriters mounted a tour under the same name in February. Each performer does a solo set, but all three are on stage throughout most of the show, contributing instrumentation and vocals to one another's songs.
 The jaunt runs from October 8-19, beginning in Fort Worth, Texas at the Ridglea Theatre. The tour runs up the West Coast and wraps in Vancouver, B.C.
 M. Ward has several appearances scheduled prior to the tour, including the Merge Records 15th Anniversary Festival July 29 in Carrboro, N.C.
 James is currently on the European festival circuit with My Morning Jacket. He'll appear solo at the Gram Parsons tribute shows in Southern California July 9-10.

That's actually rather interesting.  Too bad Oberst won't have the Desapericidos with him (as they are infinitely superior to Bright Eyes).

I hate to sound jaded but I found Oberst the least interesting portion of the show when I saw them earlier this year in Northampton and Providence.

I actual like Bright Eyes as much as MMJ and M Ward. Probably even a little more, because of thier live shows. They're actually three of my favorite artists. And to be honset, I didn't think any of them did the best songs on the last tour. I did tape the Minneapolis show, but have yet to distribute it. Was there any other tapes for that tour?

I haven't seen any tapes from those shows circulated. I have a few mp3s from the omaha show, but that's it. Would you be able to torrent the minneapolis show? It would be greatly appreciated.

If and when you make that show available, I'd like to know about it too.  I've got MMJ's June 16th show in Atlanta on its way to me now, so we could trade off if you wanted.
