Dream Concert: Bright Eyes

Over the years I have seen many of my favorite bands live but many times life has gotten in the way and I have missed them. There is a growing list of bands I want to see. With the Dream Concert feature, I list the set list and venue of my choice for one of my favorite bands that I have yet to experience live. My current selection is Bright Eyes. I have been a fan since 2000 when I first heard Fevers & Mirrors. And now I finally get to see Conor Oberst after waiting well over a decade! Bright Eyes is currently on tour supporting the excellent new album The People's Key and I will be attending the show on Wednesday June 8th at the LC Pavillion in Columbus. If I had my way, here is the set list I would choose for the night.
