I bet Jimmy Eat World will be back in the coming months since their new album is released on 10/19.

I would consider going if they said Jimmy Eat World was headlining and playing a (close to) full set. Cake and Donnas are tolerable too.

If you take two Jimmy Eat World stickers and cut them up, you can make a new one that says Eat My Jimmy.  Immature, yes, but so is their crummy "rock."

So basically between this and the Merriweather show, we probably won't get a full Cake set this tour, given how little time they apparently like to spend on the road.
 
 Bummer for me anyway.

HHHMMM..should I go to the cook off or not..Last time I went waited forever to use a crap fulled portadump, would get back in line for a beer then go get in line for the portadump again. I think I'd rather drip on honey on my body and have a million fireants feast on me. But then again I'm like that.

Just stand outside the fence not more than 20 feet from the stage with hardly anyone around you for free.  The only way to go, if you go at all.  Then you can visit the eatery in the PO for only a 100% markup and not the cookoff's 200%.

Sorry Ronni, I was out of town when you posted.  And the bands were announced on Sept 7th, so i thought it was new news.  Don't think anyone here is going anyway.  I'll hope for a real Jimmy Eat World show (and hope that the new album is good...)

Good point....yes, they are.  There are a few I can handle.   ;)   Hell, my fave band is the Foo Fighters, I'm obviously not overly critical of the mainstream.  It's just those nu metal and...I don't even know what the New Found Glory/MXPX/Pennywise bands are niched as.  But, I like Jimmy Eat World, Get Up Kids, OK GO, Lit....I admit it....

Embarassed?  I'd think you'd be in the majority here....I assume I should go to HFStival.com for my Jimmy Eat World news.     :D

Haaaa, that's true.  Though Radiohead has cred, and get debated about like nobody's business.  Man, why are they so controversial?!?

Jimmy Eat World Feels Hits The Road
 
 Modern rock act Jimmy Eat World has lined up a host live appearances surrounding the Oct. 19 release of its new Interscope album, "Futures." The itinerary kicks off Sept. 23 with the first of two shows in England, and returns to the States for a Sept. 30 gig in Riverside, Calif.
 
 Jimmy Eat World is also confirmed to appear Oct. 14 on NBC's "Late Night With Conan O'Brien" and Oct. 22 on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live." The band is expected to be on the road through the end of the year.
 
 "Futures" is already off to a strong start thanks to the single "Pain," which zoomed 29-15 in its second week on Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks chart. A "Making the Video" special is tipped to air next month on MTV and MTV2. The second single from the album will likely be "Work."
 
 Oct. 19 will also see the release of the Jimmy Eat World DVD "Believe in What You Want," previously only available from the band's Web site. The film sports 12 tracks recorded in June 2002 at Washington, D.C.'s 9:30 Club, plus a two-song acoustic performance at the city's Inner Ear Studios.

 
 Here are Jimmy Eat World's tour dates:
 
 Sept. 23: London (Carling Academy)
 Sept. 24: Northampton, England (Soundhaus)
 Sept. 30: Riverside, Calif. (UCR Recreation Center)
 Oct. 19: Pomona, Calif. (Glass House)
 Oct. 23: Tempe, Ariz. (Tempe Beach Park)
 Oct. 24: Tucson, Ariz. (Club Congress)
 Oct. 26: Las Vegas (House of Blues)
 Oct. 27: Orem, Utah (McKay Events Center)

I've never been to the cook-off, but am interested in going this year for the bands AND the chili! Does anyone know how much chili one gets for the price of admission?

 Too bad that I hate the band.
 
 PS: I know the DJ from that club.
