Last night, Conor Oberst helped celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Waiting Room Lounge by kicking off his spring tour there.

I had another show to review, so I wasn't able to be there for the whole performance. I rushed to Benson in hopes I could see the final chunk of the set, but I only caught the last few songs of the set including Bright Eyes' "Train Under Water" and his new song, "Napalm."

The Felice Brothers opened the show and also served as Oberst's backing band.

Through the portion I saw, Oberst and the band were on point. People cheered for each song, and he seemed to be having a good time playing for the hometown crowd.

When I went around the corner to see Har Mar Superstar, the Waiting Room's official 10th anniversary concert, I found out from people who saw the whole show that Oberst was less than happy.

Multiple people told me he chastised the crowd several times. He mocked them for seeming bored mentioning that if they were so bored with the show, they should have stayed home to watch TV. He called himself boring and joked that people must live in a boring place. He mocked fans of Chipotle, as if digging fast food burritos meant they were boring.
