Bright Eyes and Jim James

[brkndwnbus]

Saddle Creek has a mini-Cassadaga site up and under the tour for Bright Eyes there is a date with Jim James next to it. I believe it said 5/4/07. Anyone know about this?

Sounds like a great show.  I'm glad Jim still playing solo shows, I just wish he'd play one in Louisville.

From a second-hand un-named source VERY CLOSE to Jim, I have it that Jim will be solo support for the Bright Eyes show at the Ryman on 5-19.

Cool beans. He is also rumored to be part of the "Very special guests" at the 7 Town Hall shows. I hope so, I'm going to one. I bet M. Ward is there too.

No confirmation on Jim at the Ryman.

Bright Eyes Launch That Massive Tour

The new, extra shaggy Conor Oberst will saddle up the Bright Eyes posse and ride across the North American continent on the band's previously reported tour starting Sunday in Milwaukee.

In addition to Gillian Welch, Oakley Hall, and McCarthy Trenching, My Morning Jacket's Jim James will join the crew for a one-off performance in Berkeley.

Looks like that's a definite NO on the Jim James with Bright Eyes at the Ryman rumor.  The show is on 5/19, which is the same night as the Month of Sundays relase party.

So much for seeing Jim this Saturday.  :(

I am still excited about Bright Eyes!

I'm going to Town Hall tomorrow! Friday there Lou Reed came out, Saturday Ben Kweller, Monday Jenny Lewis. I wonder who's coming out tomorrow? Looking forward to finding out.
