You could be seeing Conan O’Brien sooner than you think. Although the comedian and former late-night host isn’t able to appear on TV until after September 1, the New York Times’ Media Decoder Blog reports O’Brien’s could be going on a tour with live “shows” held in various cities. His representatives confirmed they are “formulating a plan to get him back in front of the public in a show that would have some elements of his television work combined with new stage elements.”

The show could take O’Brien all around the globe as, “O’Brien’s team has received ‘enormous interest from all over,’ said one of his representatives. We’ve heard from the U.K., Scandinavia, Australia, Toronto, everywhere; it’s been incredible.”

If the tour were to happen, it is believed “staff members from his NBC show would probably be involved, from members of the band to writers who will help Mr. O’Brien craft new material for the show.” A formal announcement is expected to come in a few weeks.

Twitter users were excited by the rumors even suggesting a few cities where the tour should stop:

O’Brien and his team filmed their last “The Tonight Show” episode in January following a battle for late-night spots with NBC. Jay Leno, whose eponymous show ended earlier this month, will return to hosting “The Tonight Show” following the completion of NBC’s coverage of the 2010 Olympics.
