  • Jesus, Conor... if you ever see this, thanks man. The first time I heard about Bright Eyes was a guy I think called Jesse that borrowed the guitar I was playing at Spicy Lao hotel in Luang Prabang, Laos and played Bowl of Oranges. Since then you have become a huge part of my life. I 'll always remember the time I listened to "We Are Nowhere And It's Now" (for like the hundredth time) alone on the roof top of my old building after some ahem inspirational substances and a couple of drinks man that hit right deep down on my soul and it continues to do so, man were the stars bright that night... Seriously though, thanks mate.

    I started listening to Conor randomly at 13 yo living in Poland. I learned English by understanding his songs, because there is no language barrier here, this is heart to heart music!!! 10 years later, I was living in a shitty ass CT town and leaving a shitty ass relationship and randomly learned he was playing here. That day is still on my top 5 days of my life. I got to meet him after the concert, also randomly, but he definitely doesn't remember that, he was absolutely drunk. But he signed my CD, gave me a hug, and told a random probably made up story of his brother's bachelor party. Then his team dragged him away but he definitely wanted to stay and socialize with us. Conor is a pure hearted soul and the best artist alive, you can't change my mind. I WISH HE KNEW!!!!! CONOR WE LOVE YOU SO DAMN MUCH THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR HEART WITH US AND INSPIRING US TO SHARE OURS TOO. Bless you <3

    Upside Down Mountain is criminally underrated and every live performance of any song on the album proves it
  • "Life can't compare with memories......that never have to change." Artifact #1 is such a gorgeous song!!!!!
  • Oberst's songs help me make some sense of the ridiculousness in our modern world.

    i waited 13 years to catch conor live... and it was better than i could have ever imagined. and now i can relive that night forever. THANK YOU!
  • i wonder if he has any idea the amount of people he makes so happy just by living and creating...??
  • @digemxc
    Cassadaga, I'm Wide Awake, and Upside down mountain= the trifecta! After more than a decade, still hear his voice on a daily basis.
  • A Lyrical genius on a musical adventure kind enough to take us along for the ride. Gratitude. Blessings to you Conor.

    There are no better two hours on youtube. It just doesn't get better than this. Rebecca and Megan are perfect, too

    I lost my mom 2 months ago. She was my best friend. I woke up today and watched the sun rise over the reservoir and now I have this on and it’s the first time I’ve felt content in a long time. Thanks for this, it’s lovely. Conors music helps me in ways I can’t describe properly.
  • @sipincp1
    How could someone possibly be this good an artist? Thanks for posting,forever grateful .
  • @belac0911
    i would pay soooo much to go back in time and see this show!
  • @IanParedes
    This video and performance from the entire band was priceless, it’s the only way to describe it. I’m so appreciative that this exists, so fucking beyond good.
  • @BenDonahower
    i accidentally saw bright eyes in college and have been listening to conor oberst ever since.

    This version of Lua is an absolute masterpiece. The trumpet intro is just so, so smooth.
