On the heels of the rerelease of their quintessential Bleed American CD (which was retitled Jimmy Eat World shortly after 2001’s terrorist attacks for some idiotic reason) Jimmy Eat World have annouced a string of North American tour dates, which will doubtlessly feature thousands of screaming post-teens trying to relive their high school years shouting for the band to play “The Middle.” BE THERE!!!11 Maybe I can go too, and get kicked out of the photo pit and screamed at by the band’s tour manager again for “shooting flash” even though it was the dipshit college newspaper photog behind me, get manhandled by said middle-aged douchebag TM, then get in a gigantic pissing match with the band’s publicist who will take his word over mine and we can all CC as many people on our e-mails as possible and then I can wait until she quits and gets a job somewhere else to start trying to set up shit with the band again. That might be fun!
