A second Seattle show has been added to Conan O'Brien's 30-city tour.

The former "Tonight Show" host announced the tour Thursday. Sidekick Andy Richter and the former "Tonight Show" band will join O'Brien for what he calls "a night of music, comedy, hugging and the occasional awkward silence."

O'Brien will be at Seattle's McCaw Hall April 18 and 19. The tour begins April 12 in Eugene, Ore. Tickets are already on sale through Ticketmaster.

O'Brien quipped: "It was either a massive 30-city tour or start helping out around the house."

O'Brien quit "The Tonight Show" in January instead of taking NBC's offer to move his start time back by a half-hour. Jay Leno is back in his old slot. O'Brien hasn't announced any future television plans.

  I wish him well and...

  He is better suited for touring then every night on tv. He did not do as well in Leno's time slot as Leno did and now does again. I think Conan is funny in very small doses. He is more of what I call a stupid-type comedian. So stupid that's its funny. The look on his face...priceless

  Updtate

  I thought I heard that NBC will be paying Conan not to show up in Seattle and Jay Leno will instead be taping his show here.

  tons of people - first show already sold out, in a morning. I appreciated seeing this in mynw so I could buy tickets. So basically, the real question is, who cares what you think!

  I don't get it

  I have never found this guy to be funny in the least. Even as a writer for SNL all the sketches he's received credit for were completely unmemorable.
