The rumored Conan O'Brien stage tour is on and is coming to Atlanta's Fox Theatre on June 14.

O'Brien, whose exit from "The Tonight Show" and NBC bars him from taking another TV job until September, will launch "The Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television Tour" in Eugene, Ore., on April 12. He, sidekick Andy Richter and his "Tonight Show" band led by Max Weinberg will hit 30 cities over the course of two months.

With Thursday’s announcement of Conan O’Brien’s 30-city tour, the former late-night comic has embraced his online fan base, dubbed “Team Coco.”

Conan O’Brien’s tour poster uses an image created earlier this year by Mike Mitchell, a Los Angeles artist, in support of O’Brien.

The poster for the tour re-uses the image made famous on the Internet of a Conan, orange hair aflame, in front of an American flag. The image was produced by Mike Mitchell, an artist in Los Angeles, as a show of support for O’Brien when NBC tried in January to move “The Tonight Show” to 12:05 a.m. Within days the image and its message, “I’m With Coco,” was a viral sensation, inspiring dozens of pro-Conan groups on Facebook and Twitter.
