conor oberst in record store

[lancekessler55]

That necklace..



[xxTheCatsMeow]

I think who ever recorded this knew he was going to become something great.

[blarlancashier]

not surprised at all that he was a pretentious douchebag when he was younger too

[cherrycirclejerk]

@blarlancashier buzz kill lolz

[thelimelolly]

It's sad that people would be so fucking ageist towards other Conor Oberst fans. Get the fuck over yourself, if a 14 or 15 year old likes Conor Oberst and wants to go to a concert of his it's clearly because they enjoy his music. If they have the intelligence to understand and appreciate his work, they most definitely have the right to attend and enjoy one of his gigs. Jesus..

[TheNameIsKlara]

that's so cute. conor, marry me.

[GreekNeptune]

I am seriously offended by the person who got upset because she saw a 14 year old at a concert. Age shouldn't matter, but all this aside, I hate people who judge others based on appearances. I always get treated as a child because I'm petite and look young. I'm an adult! Not a child

[ittyx3]

damn. this kind of makes me feel like a pedophile. xD

[leniboda]

this guy is gonna be the death of me I can't hadle all this cuteness

[crazedbard]

he should just be arrested on the spot

[Ix3britishboys12]

Totally was not expecting this.

[JesMartini]

i just about died when i saw this video! definitely a perfect example of "dont judge a book by its cover". you would never assume this kid would become such a great songwriter/musician.

[brownteal21]

How old is he here? 15?

[ktqt76]

WHERE DID YOU GET THIS FOOTAGE???

[evelyn112101]

This is weird, but I watch this video a lot, lol I'm a creep, but it puts a smile on my face so w/e :)

[CatieIvy]

I live in Omaha and don't recognize...Which store is this?

[germansoccerfn]

@CatieIvy The Antiquarium in the Old Market downtown

[BurntByTheMoon44]

Haha I love the intensity in his voice. "THIS IS THE BEST MUSIC STORE IN THE COUNTRY."

[JOYWRIGHT]

THIS IS AWESOME

[Zepster77]

@nazijanitor  does it really matter... not to me

[theplaidpirate]

Woah, my brother was right, he did look a lot like Harry Potter. O.O

How old was he here?

[alissewonder]

@theplaidpirate He looks like he was in his Commander Venus phase, so...14,15, I guess?

[ronmascara]

LMFAO XD hahaha

[kayyocep]

Aww lol

[TheCdubbs16]

I wonder if he was at Homer's, in the Old Market. They were around back when this was made, right?

[MsRayofsun]

@TheCdubbs16 I think its at this called the antiquarium here in Omaha.idk for sure thought because this video is is like 15 or 14 years old.

[ipukezombies]

nail bunny in the background!

[pnyk]

that's "sexy"? lol

[MiklZz]

harry potter...

[inswoon]

@MiklZz Doesn't look the slightest similar if put in a comparative

[xCarolineification]

lool god, why is he so adorable lmfao xD

[s8a2b]

What a douche.

[s8a2b]

And what does tis have to do w/what I was aying? Yeah. no.

[ifitmattersidontcare]

He kinda looks like the kid from monster house in this video

[RedGhost0]

@ifitmattersidontcare Thanks for pointing that out! Totally missed it. Perhaps the glasses threw me off...

[ifitmattersidontcare]

@RedGhost0 haha yeah conor is a coo dude haha i wish i could be like him cuz im planning on singing perfect sonnet to me gf and i want it to be perfect!

[eriliddy]

oh. my. god.

he puts the BIGGEST smile on my face.

even when he was a little nerdy, he was still adorable as fuck.

[irockmyOWNsockswut]

Geez, I've watched this video too many times in the past to days. Past whatever could be considered normal. I swear to god I could sit all day and listen to conor talk.

[Amerzz789]

I want him so bad

[sassyhipster]

Everyone talking about girls not loving Conor for his music.. Shut up. It doesn't even effect your life in any way. I mean, sure it's weird if you only like a musician for his looks, but don't let it ruin your day. And OHMUHGAWD, I felt like I was seeing All Time Low.. Is that supposed to be funny..? 'Cause I'm not sure I see how. Not all Conor fans need to be book lovin', coffee drinkin', stuck up people who think they're above less intelligent people. A fan is a fan. Be happy for Conor for ha

[aliciatara]

oh my god. I feel like I just saw into his soul

[hannahlauren111]

Absolutely adorable.

[GusSmokesGreen]

valvalmonster, i agree

[northernlight111]

<333333333333333



[heyjude97]

oh, god, his necklace.... he still wears THAT necklace..

[neoninagirl]

oh my god. THIS IS THE MOST ADORABLE THING I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE! hahaha

[MartiniWeenie]

What I love the most is his mannerisms and manner of speaking. He still talks like this even now when he does interviews, its so funny to me

[rrbelriz]

hi, i´m from spain, i can read english, but unlukely, i barely understand what conor says in this video, it´s a pitty... could anyone transcribe it to me, please, please!!! thanks!!!

[xHAiiCHx]

what a babe

his talk of used CDs really turns me on

[s8a2b]

You forgot park avenue he was in that band when he was really young.

[s8a2b]

I cannot describe how sexy he is. It's ridic. Even at what is here? 16? I can't stand it. It's too much. That lil sexpot.

[s8a2b]

I cannot describe how sexy he is. It's ridic. Even at what is here? 16? I can't stand it. It's too much. That lil sexpot.

[xinthisdiaryx]

@s8a2b your only saying this cuz you know what he has become.

[alexkrzemien]

I definitely agree with the bandwagon comment.. I'm sure a lot of these people only know a handful of songs recorded by him, probably from Bright Eyes. All of you, everybody, go listen to Desaparecidos, Commander Venus, and go to Grooveshark to listen to his first record, well cassette, called Water. You won't find that in a record store anywhere.

Love the description though haha.

[merustproof289]

I love how pretentious his entire being is. He has always been ridiculously pretentious - it's perfect. I love it.

[MilkIsg00d]

LMFAO!!! he's fucking adorable!!

[vanillagoat]

I HAVE THE SAME NECKLACE AS HIM!!

[MrEliPatrick]

Really? Well where did you get it cuz that is sooo cool.

[Snarlez]

Wow to many bandwagon fans here... Mostly female drooling clones.... and a few men. Anyways... remember when He laughed so hard he might bust a gut? He was In love with some chick from toys are us. Now that Is the young bright eyed Oberst.

[alexkrzemien]

@Snarlez He was in love with Lisa from Toys R Us : ) I wish I was into music back then so I could get my hands on that cassette.

[BehindTheSea29]

God, I love Conor

[Swiftlygothedays]

Oh. The best part is when he moves towards the camera and lowers his voice while talking about Independent record label vinyl selections. Sounds all confidential and dangerous. Love this kid.

[Swiftlygothedays]

Hey Conor, will you marry me? If not, that's ok. I'll still keep a Bright Eyes shrine somewhere in my room and listen to his music for more than 16 hours a day. I just want to go to one of his shows and thank him for making me feel as if there really is more people out there in this world who've thought the same things I've thought growing up.

Ps. This is so freakin adorable. Thank you who ever recorded/uploaded this.

[dramadef91]

this made me smile. If you break down everything he says, it's so him! He starts off by saying, "This is the best record store in America" and then spends the rest of the time retracting that statement, all modestly and shit. Young Conor... so sweet.

[survivingCHARKattack]

Anyone else notice he is wearing the same necklace as he still does now in numorous photos?

[valvalmonster]

Lol lol lol what I love about Conor the most is that he is the most normal human being ever in the sense that he is the least normal human being ever, just like you and me. For all of the hopeless dreamers and oppressed nerdy thinkers who tend to fall in love with his music, don't you all see a shockingly accurate reflection of yourselves? He's like our voice, for many of us who don't have one, he picks those precise words in the right tone, and this is why...he's a fuckin weirdo like us all...

[reekytex]

@valvalmonster

hes not a weirdo, hes conor FUCKIN oberstt!!!!! yayuhhhhhh

[Jarederaj]

@reekytex lmao

[bandslikelauren]

@valvalmonster I agree 150%. Time after time I continue to be astonished that he is singing exactly how I feel, and it's so comforting to know I'm not alone. Gahh.

[xCarolineification]

@valvalmonster That is probably the truest statement ever.

[sculleyyy]

lmao nice description. i would never guess this kid could write lyrics that could make my heart melt.

[sknywhtboy88]

I would do nasty things to him

[nigelhayes]

hilarious description

[1JimBanks1]

Hahaha makes me laugh everytime

[hcfillman]

hell yeah! hands down omaha has some of the best record stores in the nation!

[MissLisboa1982]

Oh, and by the way... that "Conor Sexbomb Oberst" description made me choke while smoking my cig!!! XD

[MissLisboa1982]

I watched this video 2 times and I think the weird thing is his hair... that haircut shows too much of his ears and those glasses are way too geeky (not in a sexy geeky way). I've met him once and he is such a cutie. But then again, I fall for poets... I imagine if he'd written Lady gaga's Poker Face I probably would think he looks like a Startrek fan here (no offence to Startrek fans out there though) but since I adore him, I just say he looks young... and God knows I was creepy at highschool!

[ParamoreIsSahweet]

itself*

[ParamoreIsSahweet]

the description was almost as entertaining as the video itsself haha.

[bringmetheKYLE]

to me*

[bringmetheKYLE]

I understand Conor has done a lot of solo stuff but Mike has been a huge part of his musical success, with Bright Eyes and now Monsters Of Folk. :D

although, Conor will always be the most inspirational person to be and I only hope everyone has a chance to hear his music.

[bringmetheKYLE]

The only thing I ever think about is that when I see Conor at this age is that if Conor went to my school, would girls ever care to talk to him. He doesn't seem to be the most popular guy but he has a heart of gold and a way of expressing his emotions through lyrics I can't explain, and I hope thats why people respect and adore him, for his lyrics and music.

I also would hope people have respect for Mike Mogis, because he deserves ALOT more credit than what people seem to give him.

[bababu7]

@bringmetheKYLE People would have called him gay and often find moments to humiliate him at every turn. And the few people who would be brave enough to meet him would be so far broken that they would eventually betray his trust and friendship. Most likely.

[mrsnbross]

so.....this is a record store advertisement?

[emjems666]

the description kinda makes you sound like a paedo, no offense.

great video though. where d'you find it? xo

[ihawk247]

lmao i thought it was harry potter

[staceyms1]

I am 14 and I like Conor for his music not for his looks. I've liked him since second grade actually(I have an older sister) and when people just say "some 14 year old blah blah" or "I feel like I'm at an ATL concert" they sound idiotic. There are a lot of older girls that obsess over Conor for just his looks too and not all 12-16 year olds have to lack a brain. Not all young people like bands and musicians just because they're attractive so be specific next time.

[rockenrasco]

wow this dosnt look like oberst at all

[furturescorese]

Ur a faggot. You look like a bitch!

[NinaIsTheName]

did he work there?

[pumpkinkarvr]

no i don't think he did - it was his kind of place though

[Maatsy]

he looks like just a regular kid here. you'd never expect him to grow into such a brilliant man.

[osmidig]

I'm sure he was brilliant back then as well :)

[Mortanda2014]

oh my GOD. does anyone know what store this is/ if its still open??

[pumpkinkarvr]

i'm from omaha, ne -it was called antiquarium records. the original shop was in the basement of a bookstore and has since closed, they relocated to 13th street, though it isn't as good as it used to be

[MonkeyOnTheContrary]

Haha that is really cute

[Shawnathen]

haha funny lol

[Kyanlikethepepper]

wholly cow i want to see more!

[jessiebelle623]

Oh my gosh. So fricken cute. I adore him.

[goldmineguttedco]

Ah, seriously, so cute! Does this record store still exist?

[Katharine777]

cutest thing ive ever seen

[TheOneEyedOwl]

He must me the only guy in the world who can be geeky like that and still be sexy... my oh my.

[xgrungexme]

Wrong, but that's only my opinion. I'm not into big brutes to begin with. :D

[purplexion]

ah conor

[kcschof]

Did the Antiquarium go out of business? I was there not that long ago and it wasn't open.

[Devilslittleimp]

ha ha, thats totally conor, no way, fucking crazy. What you think he is...17, 18?

[PrallPlusOne]

my guess is 17... if harry potter movies came out a little bit early i bet he wouldve gotten the part of harry haha.

[01011010110]

that is an awesome video description.

[echostaticc]

Oh my god. My favorite interview(i suppose) of conor oberst!

I can't help but smile, so adorable.

[newasthespring]

he was so geeky, i love it! ha ha

[littlelulamae]

his ears are cute, haha

[johnmorisi8]

haha hes harry potter when he was younger with short hair n when he got older with long hair he looked like snape, love conor! <3

[shepunk95]

thats so weird i geeked out like that when i found this awsome record store and this awsome book store. I get you conor!

[xkara08x]

I know people are saying that you wouldnt look twice at him then if you didnt know he was Conor Oberst but I would actually find him awesome! Thats why I love this video cos I geek out like this whenever I find good record shops! But thats probably cos there arent many where I live so when I do find places like this with rare cd's it makes me way too happy :)

[CorehJane123]

Ah... I have to admit that even though Conor is drop dead gorgeous; he looks like Harry Potter in this video.

He's freaking adorable.

And that jazz music in the back. It the cherry on top of a perfect Conor sunday.

Oh yeah.. I went there.

<3

[retePtnecniV]

why you ppls talk about his looks instead of discussing what he just said ?

[dynam0fire]

i.....love him.

[MasterOuiukiske]

I just came.

:D

Connor is SEXY!

Gah, what the fuck am I saying!?

I'm a dude!

[jonnyboy573]

i know dude.

where floating the same boat. haha

[3ILuvmusic]

You, man, you understand me.

[xMaddielion]

he's always cared so much about music. he's such an inspiration!

[BurntByTheMoon44]

dude I totally agree.

I love how you commented on his music. Not about his "sexy Harry Potter face"

I respect that.

But yeah, I agree. He's such an inspiration. I love how serious he is in the video.

[xMaddielion]

well his horribly good looks aren't what makes his music what it is. it's his mind and the soul he puts into it that made me fall in love with his music. sometimes i wonder how many fans he'd have if he didn't have such a pretty face. =/

[BurntByTheMoon44]

I know and I agree with that. I liked his music way before I even knew what he looked like. But you shouldn't be so hard on people. I bet there's a lot of people who like him for his music, not for his looks. I mean, there's a lot of guys who like his music. I doubt they like him for his pretty face, haha.

There's always going to be those stupid people. We should just ignore them.

[xMaddielion]

yeah. there's still way too many people like that though. when i saw mvb back in june there was like a 14 year old girl in front of me. i felt like i was seeing All Time Low. and another girl was talking about how she's gonna go crazy when "her baby comes on stage". yikes.

[BurntByTheMoon44]

Oh god, that's messed up. Conor isn't that kind of guy who would like that. But still, god that makes me mad though. I try to ignore people you know, but on a LOT of videos there's this people who say something about how they love Conor and I'm like, do you love Conor...because of his music? Or because of his face?

And look, already someone disliked my comment because I didn't like the "harry Potter" talk.

[LOveTwiNz]

He looks adorable!

[furlong1018]

he still wears that same jacket. ahha

[nixietrixie20]

Where the hell did you find this?

[penguin019]

[nixietrixie20]

oh my god. that's beyond words.
