Conan O'Brien is going from off the air to on the road.
The former "Tonight Show" host will kick off a 30-city "Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour" next month with stops at Radio City on June 1 and 2.
"Hey Internet: I'm headed to your town on a half-assed comedy & music tour," O'Brien tweeted yesterday.
Fans immediately jammed his Web site, teamcoco.com, in search of tickets.
"We are now adding a second show in both NYC & Chicago," O'Brien added minutes later. "For that second show, I'll be doing all Liza Minnelli songs."
Tickets range from $44 to $699.50 for "meet and greet" package. They were on sale through Ticketmaster and teamcoco.com.
Under the terms of his departure from NBC, O'Brien is not permitted to appear on TV again until September.

I don't really have a dog in this fight but I did hear that Conan is working for ZERO DOLLARS on this tour. The purpose is to give work to about 40 of his ex-employees.

If conan the destroyer is 10 times funnier than dave and jay and by the way they both suck out loud then we are truly in trouble for comedy laughs but anyway conan is such a non-factor thats whats hilarious!

This is good news for all of us who want a good 5 minutes of comedy compressed into a 2 hour act.

My son and I miss you Conan! NBC screwed you as they did others in the past. You have more class than Leno and Letterman combined. Leno is a weasel. Letterman is old. We'll be at the show!
