I have been waiting for this night for a very long time. I was so excited when Bright Eyes released The People's Key earlier this year, and when their tour was announced, I knew it was going to be a great September. There are plenty of tickets available to this show, so come on out and enjoy the many faces and sounds of Conor Oberst and crew. It's a solid show with Kurt Vile & the Violators opening the night. If you're not planning on Soma tonight, or want something to do after, head over to the Casbah for Systems Officer, which is a side project from Zack from Pinback. He's had the music for awhile but finally put a band together to tour. and they'll be playing here in their hometown just for you.
