Jimmy Eat World - Tour

Mon Feb 11, 2008 8:46 pm

*Other JEW thread was locked*

So, I'm a recent convert to the sound of Jimmy Eat World, and noticed they had some tour dates coming up in the UK soon (end of Feb / start of March). Wondering if anyone on here had been to one of their concerts in recent times / at all? Not been to a proper concert before, so dunno what to expect? Guessin they'd be promoting their latest album (Chase This Light) plus throw in a few of the older favourites? More interested in whether they're a good concert band, or am better off giving it a miss :P

They're pretty good. :D If I do go, I'll be at Roundhouse or Brixon Academy, although they're quite far away.

Yeh I'm looking into Roundhouse too. Looks like tickets still available, n decently priced methinks, at £20 inc booking fee. Been looking into what they've done at the European gigs, looks like possible setlist (in rough order):

-Big Casino
-Sweetness
-Work
-Crush
-Always Be
-For Me This Is Heaven
-Disintegration
-Salt Sweat Sugar aka Bleed American
-Get It Faster
-Here It Goes
-Futures
-Blister
-Carry You
-Let It Happen
-23
-----
-Your House
-Hear You Me
-Dizzy
-Pain
-The Middle


Looks good. People have mentioned seeing some of the band members before and after the concert, so might bring my Chase This Light album with me :P

The only song I like by them is Hear You Me. It's really pretty. But yeah, if you do go to a gig, make sure you go standing so you can dance, dance, dance. :D

Bought my tickets :D Me n 3 mates going now. Turns out we almost missed out on tickets :o Stuck on back row seated, but apparently its no worse other than missing the sensation of being right next to the band *shrug* Should still be good fun. Anyone else going?
