Bright Eyes Live Performance of 'Something Vague' at Westfair Amphitheater
Before the live recording of "Something Vague" at Westfair Amphitheater on June 4, 2011, Bright Eyes was basking in the glow of their critically acclaimed album *The People’s Key*, released earlier that year. This release marked a notable shift for the band, intertwining Conor Oberst's poignant lyrics with a more polished and electronic sound, broadening their artistic palette. The performance of "Something Vague," a heartfelt gem from *Fevers and Mirrors*—their earlier, more introspective work—reveals a rich contrast between their evolving sound and the raw emotional intensity fans had come to love. Interestingly, 2011 was a pivotal point for Bright Eyes, as it not only showcased their live capabilities but also hinted at Conor Oberst's return to the indie scene after a brief hiatus, making it a special year for both the artist and their loyal followers.
