A great show at a fantastic venue. I was surprised at how much I liked Harrah's concert space. The band played a varied set with songs from everything but static. I loved hearing Authority song, which I dont remember hearing them play live before and No Sensitivity was great to hear as well. Loved ringing in the new year with the guys. Great show!

About
Jimmy Eat World in Concert
Jimmy Eat World started in 1993 as a punk trio formed by childhood friends Jim Adkins and Zach Lind. After years of hard work in the studio and on the road, the band settled on a poppier sound, hitting the spotlight in 2001 with breakthrough album Bleed American. The album included several successful singles including "The Middle," which reached No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became an MTV staple. After extensive touring in support of the album, the band returned to the studio for 2004's Futures, which peaked at No. 6 and earned the band another No. 1 single with "Pain." Chase This Light in 2007 and Invented in 2010 would achieve similar success, cementing the band's role as one of the most successful indie acts in the business.
In 2013, Jimmy Eat World celebrated 20 years of independently released records with Damage, their critically-acclaimed eighth studio album. At their live concerts, the band delivers a blast of non-stop energy and enthusiasm, delighting ticket buyers with heavy guitar riffs, boisterously precise drum solos, and three-part vocal harmonies anchored by the familiar croon of frontman Jim Adkins. 2013's Damage saw the band transition from teen-angst rock towards a more sophisticated sound, with lyrical content taking on a markedly more mature tone on singles like the album's title track and "I Will Steal You Back."
Jimmy Eat World on Tour
Jimmy Eat World announced their Criminal Energy Tour in 2020. The 20-date summer run starts in Atlanta, GA on August 6, 2020 and culminates in a hometown gig in Phoenix, AZ, Labor Day Weekend, on September 5, 2020. New Jersey-based The Front Bottoms join the tour as direct support with Turnover and Joyce Manor splitting the duties of opening the festivities on select dates. Jimmy Eat World continues the 2020 roadshow in support of their "bold, brave and ultimately defiant" (NME) 10th studio album, Surviving. With 10 records to pull from, the sets will prove to satisfy all fans new and old. Over the course of their career, Jimmy Eat World have sold venues such as Saint Andrews Hall (Detroit) to capacity, as well as 713 Music Hall (Houston), and The Masonic (San Francisco).

by Anonymous on 1/3/10Harrah's Resort and Casino - Atlantic CityThis was my fourth time seeing JEW and as usual they were fantastic! I can't believe I counted down the new year with Jimmy Eat World in Atlantic City!!! It will be a moment I'll remember forever. It was great that there were no opening bands.. you didn't have to wait for them to come on. Wasn't too pleased with the venue. The sound wasn't very good, it was hard to hear Jim most of the time. Plus I was only able to get seats in the penthouse far away from the crowd so that sucked. It was cool because Tom Linton was walking around before the show and of course no one noticed. I would've asked for a picture but it seemed like he was in a hurry. It had been my goal to meet Jim Adkins this time b/c I absolutely love him.... oh well, maybe next time they tour !!!!!

by Imthatguy485 on 1/2/10Harrah's Resort Atlantic City - Atlantic CityThis was only the second time I saw Jimmy Eat World. It made my New Years Eve when I got to see them with my girlfriend. Her and I enjoyed every moment of the show and we are now playing the waiting game until Jimmy Eat World graces us with their presence again.
