    i sure hope they don't play oxygen, i'd prefer them to play another gig gig if you know what i mean.

    it was an absolutely mental night first time seeing them though long time fan.

    highlights were definitely - A praise chorus, Bleed american, Lucky denver mint and sweetness.

    *EDIT* i should slap myself i forgot get it faster. don't worry i'm hanging my head in shame

    i'm not saying it won't be good for them, it's just that like how much is a ticket to oxegen? 65 euros?

    that's not worth it to see jimmy eat world play, they'd probably play at like 2 o clock in the day time.

    it be much better if they have a more intimate gig like olympia/ambassador etc.

    Great gig; have seen them before and they are always deadly. really enjoyed it; I'm sold on the new album, am going to pick it up pretty soon. Could only get sitting tickets tho :( IMO a gig isnt a gig unless you're exhausted and stinky after it :) I tried my best but was a little stymied by the olympias' garden gnome chairs.

    Yeah "back in the summer" sounds a bit like an oxegen appearance allright. Hopefully tho it will be in the ambassador or Olympia again.

    i don't think they'd don two european tours so close together in the one year. if they are coming back, it's most likely to be with them doing the festival circuit, oxegen, t in the park, etc

    yeh, forgot about that. they also played witnness that year iirc.
    saw the first two gigs in the tbmc and the ambassador.
    tuesday's gig surpassed the two of them imo!

    Yea, Witnness was the same year. Didn't much like the Witnness show, but the other two were brilliant. Better than this one I reckon. Well... TBMC anyway.

    Best song had to be Authority Song, can't believed they played that!

    Yall should check out www.jimmyeatworld.com then look for the blog section, there's a great picture they took and some really sweet comments about Dublin.

    I wasn't a Jimmy Eat World fan at all, mostly cos I was just unaware of the band I guess. But was invited to the gig by a friend at the last minute on Tuesday and thought it was terrific. I'll definitely be checking out more of their music in the futute. :)

    Oh yea. I remember being very pissed off I missed that. Didn't know Jimmy Eat World played though. Thought it was just the Foos. Now I'm even more pissed off...

    Yea. Good news alright. But as far as camping goes the addition of Snoop Dogg will probably make the experience less enjoyable...
