I’ve been a big fan of Jimmy Eat World since Bleed American in 2001. After I got into that album, I got Clarity (their previous album) and loved that one too. It’s hard to believe, but Clarity was released 10 years ago. To commemorate the release, they did a small tour where they played the entire album from beginning to end (with other songs thrown in, I’m sure). They recorded the last show of the tour and recently released it as a live album.

The cool part about this to me is that these guys obviously still believe in their old material enough to embrace it…unlike some bands I know who act like it’s a chore to have to play the songs that made them big. No names…but if you know me then you probably know who I’m talking about.

Anyways, I highly recommend getting this album. It’s only $8.99 at jimmyeatworld.com. You get 15 tracks, a digital booklet, digital poster, photos, and you can choose from high-quality mp3, Apple Lossless, FLAC, or two different WAVs (I got the mp3’s). Go buy it!

If you follow me on Twitter (and why wouldn’t you?), then you may have seen this photo I posted. You can click on it to enlarge it. You’re probably asking yourself, “What in the hell is that?” Read »

For those you you who don’t know, long before Universal’s City Walk had “Rising Star Karaoke” there was the original “Rockstar Karaoke” at Voyage on Sunday nights in Downtown Orlando.  The idea is that anyone can get up on stage with a kick ass rock band, and be the front man (or woman) for a song.  It’s an absolute blast, as I can personally attest to, and a hell of a lot cooler than sitting in your living room playing rock band on your x-box.
