to think that there was once a place and time where one could've seen both a Static Prevails era Jimmy Eat World AND Mineral play a set. As a Gen Z its something I'll never experience.
What Would I Say To You Now is pure gold. I was sad they don’t play this album anymore when I went to see them live, but it was nice to see other fans of it. I got a bracelet with that song on it.
At the time I remember it was so weird there was this band on Capitol in “our scene.” But man, Capitol was on to something. These dudes on a different level. Amazing how tight there are at such a young age.
@Fire-Toolz Lowkey a miracle they stayed signed so long before Bleed American. As good as Clarity was, the sales figures probably weren't what the label was after. And it's not common for labels to dish out second chances on a band that hasn't really made big returns yet
If I recall correctly, they were the only band on the bill that got an encore. That was a great weekend. I was in college at the time we came all the way from Rochester, NY through Canada to go to that festival! It was such a blast!
@@Antlion161 he said that he felt a little intimidated cause alot of hardcore and indie bands were playing there, and at this time they had released static prevails under capitol records, which was and i think still is sort of titan in the music industry. so you have alot DIY bands here and jimmy eat world was part of mayor and usually more smaller DIY/hardcore/underground scenes kinda hated that. so when people went over to their merch table and saw the cds with the capitol records logo they were like "what the hell is this?!" what are you doing here?" moral of the story, even of you get signed to a bigger label, it doesnt guarantee you'll immediately be selling out arenas and stadiums. i think even with the "support" of capitol, jimmy eat world still had to grind like any DIY band booking their own shows and tours
Being a musician myself, I don’t think a gallon of milk or water would keep the kick from moving haha I can perfectly see that getting pushed over immediately

this band has always sounded just as good live as they do on their albums.
If you're watching this, I love you.

Without a doubt, one of one of the best bands of the genre during that mid/late 90's period.
agreed

That's a fact. Multiple encores. Nobody moved... Nobody got hurt.
in the same room is so fucking good
That kid singing every word during call it in the air behind the drums.

Og hardcore fan

Love it! Need more!!!!
Awesome show, thanks for uploading this!
when every song is so good that they weren't even going to play the single
Thanks so much for this upload!
Fantastic! Thank you! I would give just about anything to hear them play in the same room again.
BE STILL, BEEEEE SILLLENTT
What a killer set..... legendary
damn, this is insane. it's as if they created a sound that preempted nostalgia for this era. they were mystics seeing in to the future
Best version of Call it in the air I’ve seen. Tom’s vocals should’ve been mixed higher on the album.
I would pay anything for a time machine see this whole festival omfggg
We were standing right next to each other! My shorter and shakier version is on my page!
This made my life.
incredible
Awesome!!!! Those lucky guys around :)
Oh this so sick to see!!!
The ole' milk jug in front of the kick drum technic. All ways ahead of the times Jim.
what does that do?
WHAT DOES IT DO???? I NEED THIS ANSWER
@@sonar3852pretty sure it’s just water, to drink lol
@@gloryxkid my friend told me it's in place of a rug so the kick drum doesn't fall on someones foot
Being a musician myself, I don’t think a gallon of milk or water would keep the kick from moving haha I can perfectly see that getting pushed over immediately
Rick was practically roadie-ing for Tom haha
Well, me too if " i may have seen this angle yet doubt I have". Not too sure.
😭
What would I say to you now!!!!!
There’s a lot of Horace Pinker influence in this set (IMO)
"tightest" live band ive ever seen, couldnt miss a beat if they tried
6:36 whyyyyyyy
Where are the chicks?
this place is so ugly, but the sound kicks so hard,
First song?
In the Same Room
It’s on static prevails. First album.
