Poison Oak always breaks me down in the most beautiful way. Lived it; i wouldn't wish it on anyone.

[@jPup_]

Hallelujah to have this entire performance in one upload. Thanks!

[@notcosmiccam9327]

Yo my boy Connor seems fvcked up in this joint.

[@katotornado4312]

lol he been up for a few days I think 😂

[@dtho100]

You're doing the lord's work 6 years later. Can't believe I found this now!

[@anhumblemessengerofthelawo3858]

Ohhh that's why he looks more healthy, js

[@laurenanderson7823]

@@anhumblemessengerofthelawo3858 what?! did these people just get my hopes up?!

[@scrappy291]

Hahaha all the white-haired elderly people In the audience did not know what they were in for.

[@mrwednesdaythursday]

In the 2nd song “Too Late To Fixate” he sings “And I love her torn stockings And her lipstick of red Is it too late to fixate On her instead” Those lyrics seem to go well with his red lipstick!!

[@gustercc]

I was wondering if he put it on too heavy this particular night. Ha!

[@jomascarbProc]

@@gustercc the way it's put on seems like it was not and he was just kissing some mad lips right before the presentation

[@ZacharyPosey-yx3wx]

Ladies and gentlemen this is what being drunk and high on coke looks like but that’s why Conor is god perfect performance!

[@idkbroidkasdf]

holy moly this exists

[@Name-qh6hh]

Thank you so much for posting this!!!!!

[@Dd94949]

Hard to tell what this audience is feeling...nothing or everything? Overall they look confused and disappointed...exactly what conor likes 🙂

[@kevincorcoran5610]

I'm so confused. Lipstick? And is he high? I saw him in 2007 or 8 and he was totally gone at that show. Great show, though. But, I thought that he was past all of that. He's not looking too good here.......

[@lightstays]

By far the audience most unfamiliar with his work I've ever seen. Did they win these tickets in a sweepstakes and get bussed in?

[@TheKrickReport]

Not the crowd I’d choose to sing about burning Bibles in front of 🔥 📕 😂💪 Connor is the man!

[@TheCheesecakedeath]

​​@@TheKrickReporthoney that man is wearing lipstick 😮😭🤣

[@TheKrickReport]

@@TheCheesecakedeath only because he was making out w the hottie in the front row!

[@mygreenenvy]

I can swear that I heard some laughter in the audience when Conor said this next song is about my gay cousin that committed suicide when he was 23

[@RealJPMcGrath]

God this rivals the band

[@NicholasRubio-mk2xd]

“put that on pbs!”

[@jcc5538]

How does this get better?

[@rowenamielock3591]

I've seen Connor perform live twice and to be honest I think he just hates the stage. He thrived in the early 200o's shrouded by the cloak of CD's and small midwest house shows, but as he got bigger, big groups just stresses him out I think. He also never ever talks to his audience...like he's almost scared of us. Still one of the all time best lyricists to ever exist tho! WE love you Connor.

[@ran_d_d]

First time in a while in DC and Baltimore like a year + ago he seemed pretty happy. Talked a bit. Jumped off the stage and sang to a bunch of people in the front.. I’ve only ever been close to him a couple times before they went on.. and I didn’t even try to talk to him because I can tell he waits in the bus until right when he’s going on stage then walks in there real quick. If there’s any kinda show I think he dislikes the most these days it’s festivals or outdoor shows.

[@shelliewass942]

He talks a lot once he’s a little drunk 😂

[@mrwednesdaythursday]

I’ve seen Conor more than 50 times since 1999. To say he doesn’t talk to the audience is an outright lie, or maybe mistake to be more accurate. Never, not even once has he not talked to an audience. Yes he becomes more talkative the more he drinks. He also may be more talkative from one show to the next, but he talks as much as any other band I’ve seen.

[@chrimbus3442]

I think thats why hes an alcoholic. Ive had my struggles with alcohol too and it sucks because it makes me so much more of a fun person to be around, but it's also gotta dark side that creeps up on you slowly but surely.

[@nickwallace6648]

I’ve seen desapercidos, bright eyes monsters of folk, Conor solo I have no idea what you’re talking about

[@dzydzy101]

idk how i never seen this. every single second is gold

[@eduardocubero5903]

INCREIBLEEEEEE

[@nerolilaine9973]

Omg thank you

[@damiana_9]

@14:15 I feel like this song also makes sense..Neil Young cov ering Phil Ochs, "changes". Conor is a better lyricist, but this song is on par: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mWrKqnukjMqamJY

[@gripntie5589]

Lotta gold prospectors in that audience..

[@knightscroftsquire-muldoon]

Lotta good people as well!

[@compliantart7808]

Wisdom is better than gold, true prospectors

[@caulds989]

The fiddle player must not have known the song before this performance and was given 10 min to listen to it and learn his part

[@redrover3259]

Damn! Go James!!!

[@tylerlawson5923]

I live crazy close to this to have had zero idea I could have gotten tickets.

[@knightscroftsquire-muldoon]

For real, I would have as well. Saw them back in 2010 at the Ryman, it was spectacular and moving.

[@laceymarcucci8990]

Lipstick?

[@free_melie]

WHAT HAPPENED TO CONORS LIP??

[@RicardoMorales-ix2np]

❤

[@Hustlesouls]

phoebe cameo ❤

[@TheKrickReport]

At least we know where the lipstick came from 👄 😂

[@remyremy6808]

I think the violinist at the beginning is pretty heavy handed & not listening too well.

[@benjaminwilliams.]

When was this ??

[@Sheriff_Ochs]

Had to have been around 2016 or so, maybeee 2017. I say this because I love the band that's backing Conor up, The Felice Brothers, and their lineup changed a lot in 2016 or so, both their bass player and fiddle player left the band to pursue their own things.

[@laceymarcucci8990]

This would have been awesome!

[@BannedHistory]

Can someone please explain the lipstick?

[@JaymePaladino]

He's drinking fruit punch?

[@rickfranklin1471]

makes him feel pretty?

[@mrwednesdaythursday]

In the second song, “Too Late To Fixate” he sings the lyrics “And I love her torn stockings And her lipstick of red Is it too late to fixate On her instead” I thought they went well with his lipstick??

[@JaymePaladino]

@@mrwednesdaythursday yeah you nailed it. Hope he left the stockings at home. 💅

[@SithLadyDarthAnnakus]

Omg yessss thank you for this!!!

[@thesuncouldnotsaveus]

Was this before he was diagnosed with brain cancer?

[@coolchickenboys]

He never had brain cancer lmao He had an blood clot in his brain

[@mygreenenvy]

@@coolchickenboys I thought what I heard was that it was a cyst ?

[@nolanwolfe]

@@mygreenenvyin his song “counting sheep” he mentions a cyst on the brain. I also thought it was a cyst

[@otiesdriftwood]

Sounds awful lol ive been in worse bands tho

[@laurenanderson7823]

so, when was this originally filmed? and, why all the amplification in a cave? is that necessary? and, aren't they afraid that the rocks will come down b/c of all the reverberations?

[@Bouboulovplaying]

March 25, 2017, according to google

[@zack1138]

Because it’s a cool venue and no, they’re not worried about the rocks falling down

[@GaspardHausers]

Pretty sure he's performed there before this time.

[@Blue_Moon_Cannabis]

well he did show up didn't he
