Bright Eyes Live in 2025
In this episode, we discuss the mythology of misery around Bright Eyes and Conor Oberst, as he surprises us with his showing up as "okay" to the Palace Theatre in St. Paul on April 4, 2025. Okay is by no means a low bar, considering the show was top form Bright Eyes. Truly. It was an incredible show that shook our expectations, and we're thrilled to share what we learned.
