Anderson Mesa

In December of 1999 my brother and I drove up to Tempe from Tucson for 2 back to back Jimmy Eat World shows at The Green Room, an unfortunately now defunct venue. This was an interesting time to catch the band as it is about 6 months prior to the release of their mainstream breakthrough album, Bleed American. The venue was small and intimate with excellent sound. The band was spot-on and extraordinarily passionate in their performance. And, as usual Jim Adkins leaves it all on the floor. He is the Steve Nash of modern day Rock and Roll.

We shot this on a rented VHS camera from Director's Chair Video in Tucson. The camera wasn't that great but Director's Chair Video RULES!

Oh, I don't have the Static demos, but WIWSTYN is included in the Clarity ones as well. Must've been floating around for a while before they released it.

They played What Would I Say to You Now and I consider that to be a Static song... Though it technically wasn't on SP it had two versions on the demos of that album and has a similar style to many of the Static songs, for those smart asses who I know would've called me out on that... Just saying...

It would've been a bit out of place though, just throwing in a Static song...

This would have been so cool to hear on Clarity Live as opposed to No Sensitivity. Them ending the tour with this song in Tempe would have produced an incredible crowd reaction...

Just got finished watching the whole show. Best performance of the band I've ever seen. It's sad to think there's no chance to see them in small venues like that anymore.
