Jimmy Eat World at The Vic

Two Sundays ago Jimmy Eat World played at the Vic Theatre.  The Vic Theatre is a small place just south of Wrigleyville.  It was the last show of their Damage tour and they killed it!  It was all of what I expected and even more.  It was a long setlist and set.  In order to keep this post short, I have listed all of the songs that they played and organized them by album.

  • Self Titled:  None
  • Static Prevails: None
  • Clarity:  Your New Aesthetic, Lucky Denver Mint, Blister
  • Bleed American:  Bleed American, A Praise Chorus, The Middle, Hear You Me
  • Futures:  Futures, Work, Kill, Pain, 23
  • Chase This Light:  Big Casino, Let it Happen, Always Be, Chase This Light
  • Invented:  Heart is Hard to Find, My Best Theory
  • Damage:  I Will Steal You Back, Damage, Appreciation, Please Say No
  • Other:  We are Never Getting Back Together (Taylor Swift Cover)
If you weren't a Jimmy Eat World fan already, then you probably wouldn't have thought the show was amazing.  However, if you were, then you probably thought it was awesome.  They played a lot of the songs that you wouldn't have really expected but that are fan favorites.  Of course, Jimmy Eat World played "The Middle" last.  If you only know of the song "The Middle" I suggest that you check out more of Jimmy Eat World's music.  You may not like it that much but at least give it a shot.  That's all I'm saying.

Overall, the concert was pretty great.  As a hardcore fan of Jimmy Eat World, I've been waiting to finally see them in concert for a long time.

I would not hesitate to buy tickets again for their next tour.
