Saw Conor Oberst at Reading, in fact i was at the front (unfortunately he probably got the smallest crowd at the fest) he came on after Pendulum so i was hot, tired and battered lol (however Pendulum was so much fun and even more chaotic than Rage)
It was alright but I was left a bit disappointed (not cos I was expecting some Bright Eyes material and was denied) the performance just seemed a bit flat. Maybe it was the contrast between the madness of Pendulum to the soft, easy listening nature of Conor.
Anyway new album is great and he played a fantastic bluesy number that was really sitting well with me
