Bright Eyes Launch That Massive Tour

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.

After they finish on these shores, the band will head to Europe and Japan for a handful of dates this summer.

And just in case you didn't catch it before, Conor is not in fact selling signed guitars at Costco, and Cassadaga debuted at #4 on the Billboard charts last week. Supercassafragilisticexpialidocious!
