Conan O’Brien goes barnstorming

Deposed late-night host to launch a tour of the U.S.

Deposed Tonight Show host Conan O’Brien isn’t going to be idle for long. While Jay Leno takes over The Tonight Show again, O’Brien is planning to tour with a live show, going from venue to venue in the U.S. and capitalizing on the “Team Coco mania” that swept the country. The tour will be tied to “a new Internet presence for O’Brien,” all serving to make him more visible as he plots his next move, which seems increasingly likely to be with a show on Fox.
