Listening to 23 with headphones on as loud as they will go, in the dark, at 1am, with tears streaming down your face or you’re not really listening to it.

This is not a concert. This is a time machine.

sound guy deserves a raise

23 can bring me to tears. Now in my 30’s, it brings back my early 20’s and the adventures I had. Girls, booze, parties, mistakes, and the lessons learned from them. Such an amazing album, but that song is the cherry on top.

I used to fall asleep to this entire album. Holds such a special place in my heart

23 one of the best album closers of all time That guitar tone is phenomenal

I feel like I should pay for this haha. Thank you for doing this Jimmy Eat World

So Jim obviously has no plans to age anytime soon!

I got the future album from a second-hand CD store in Thailand. At that time, I was in my first year at university. Since then, I have answered myself that the number 1 rock band in my heart is Jimmy Eat World. Now I'm 36 years old.

one of the best albums in the history of rock music.

Zach is such a consistent and solid drummer

No matter how much time passes, this album will always hold the highest place in my heart.

Futures is one of the best albums ever made and my favourite by Jimmy eat world. I will never get enough of this

The production on this is damn impressive

8:40 the bass player is so cool. He seems like a reluctant warrior type who returned from his distant quest to bring the bass powers to the equation. Also he looks like the Elf leader from LOTR.

I cant overstate how important this album is to me. It was there when I was a teen with my first longterm girlfriend, my long/late/early journeys home, my gifts to friends.. every random significant and insignificant moment. This album was always there. It's part of my DNA literally. But then, so are the 2 bonus tracks, 'shame' and 'when I want'. Thats the whole complete journey home. Futures forever ❤ Now, Stay on my Side Tonight PLEASE!! Take my wallet.

To think the album was recorded in 2004 and the guys can still get together 18 years after the fact and perform it to this standard is mindblowing. The whole performance is great, but Kill gets my vote as sounding better than the album version. Amazing guys!

It's not easy to remain an ensemble your entire time making music together. Their chemistry and each members contribution brings each of Jim's songs to life. And they've never sounded more solid. Way to age like fine wine, boys.

Most underrated band of ALL TIME

Night Drive is the most sensual song they've ever written, damn I love this tune ❤

Incredible. Kill, Polaris, and 23 have been three of my favorite songs ever since the album came out.

Futures is like an old school album with modern appeal. It's a journey...you have to start with the first song and ride it all the way out.

If you graduated high school in 05 this album really holds an incomprehensible meaning for you. That summer of my senior year this album resonated with me in a way that can’t be overstated.

23 might actually be one of the greatest songs of all time in the alt scene. Just all round stunning

It’s my 27 birthday today. Part of me still feels like the kid who listened to this album for the first time. I hope one day everything will make sense for everyone. 😇

The year was 2004; I was graduating HS and this album came out and it was THE BEST year of my life!!! Haven't listened to this album in such a long time, but I still know the words to every one of these songs!!! Glad to be apart of the Jimmy Eat World fandom!

Yknow a lot of bands that have strained or emotional singing, can flub sometimes in the live performance. Sometimes the album was just lightning in a bottle that's hard to replicate. But you can tell here he really is just that good of a singer and that consistent.

This album has some of the most relatable lyrics ever for me, one of the most relatable albums lyrically for me behind only stuff like Alice In Chains. Pretty Perfect album.

This really gives me the chills taking me back ~20 years to my first loves, break-ups, general time of not knowing shit about life and whats going to happen in life. Turned out okay, I guess, but still miss those days like fuck.

" I feel that when I'm old, I'll look at you and know the world was beautiful" still hits me like freight train almost 20 years later

Jim is the best vocalist from the 2000s and one of the only bands who have kept their form and sound. Even their new stuff gives me the feels, it's always relatable. I wish there was a Jimmy and death cab Collab

This album is as close to perfect as it gets. It was released during a very formative time in my life when I moved halfway across the US for College. To say this album means a lot to me is an understatement!

How does Kill not get talked about more? They all get so into that song everytime they play it

Nothing Wrong it's a kick in the teeth 35:03 . In Argentina, not many of us listen to them. But the few of us who are have been doing it since 90s. I'm 44 and I've never had the chance to see them live. So this video is like a recital for me. They always accompany me. Glad to find this. Cheers!

After all These years a great singer and a graet Band. Underrated af....

Literal goosebumps at that intro riff. ✊🏻✊🏻

I remember when I was 13 I was watching Fuse all the time and Jimmy dropped Pain as a single but I never got into them. Obviously I heard the Middle and knew them just never got into them. In my late 20s, I got into Bleed American and then I listened to Furtures bc I remembered Pain. I’m 31 now and Jimmy is one of my top 2 or 3 favorite bands. I’m a country boy from South Georgia so this music didn’t get played a lot around me growing up lol I’m 31 now and I say to this day that 23 is my favorite song of all time 💯💯💯🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

One of my favorite to play drums to. Still to this day

Futures came out when I was 21. Discovering this tonight is taking me back to the summer I listened to it endlessly, and regularly over the 17 years since. Thank you so much for making this music back then, and making this now ❤.

23 has had such a special place in my heart, this album as a whole as well, watching and listening to this has made me so happy, thank you so much guys!! 🥺

Good God man. Seventeen years of listening to Polaris and it still tugs at my hearts strings like no other song can. Utterly adore this album and this live performance.

impeccable live vocals. probably the best live rock setup, 3 gtrs, keys, bass n drums w/ backing vocals arranged so tastefully.

This album is flawless!

I saw them play this album live when they toured it for the 10th anniversary. Drove to Rhode Island for it from Philly, because it was the only date close enough and on a weekend. Greatest show I ever had the pleasure of watching. This band is so underrated and not nearly as big as they deserve to be.

I think the best part of this video? Finding out '23' has touched so many people as it did me.

Thank you thank you thank you thank you. Just perfect. 17 years later and it hits you so different yet the same. An absolute masterpiece and an album that completely changed my life. And damnit Jim, you’re a fine wine my friend

I will literally never forget hearing 23 live. One of the coolest moments of my life genuinely. It moved me

Oh man… kill…. Still feel the same about the same girl 20 plus years later. Great performance…

This is music you play as your 9th inning relief pitcher entrance anthem. ❤

Preformace is flawless...and they nailed the mix as usual.

The first time I heard Futures and 23: I knew this album would revolutionise punk and stand the test of time into the future. Breathtaking album

dude they are so good.... I only know the hits but holy hell they are damn near perfect live. lets get a new album

Drugs or me is one of the most moving songs i've ever heard and one of their best. Just gives me chills.

Kill is so damn good on this oh my goodness!!! Jimmy eat world thank you so much!

Tom and Jims harmonies on futures....so pure.

I'm from the Philippines and I've been a fan since 2003. I was in high school then (practically grew up on their music and they shaped so much of me as a songwriter and musician as well). I haven't gotten a chance to watch them live (not locally or flying out to another country). I hope I get to watch them live before I die or if they decide to stop playing live 😢

They sound fantastic live

I remember picking up 'Futures' at Sam Goody when I was about 12 just because the cover photo looked cool. What I heard was even more captivating & it threw my mind into a whirlwind. Thanks for the memories.

AWESOME, masterpiece! And wow I'm always impressed by how Jim sings and play at the same time... and do the solos!

So happy I saw them on the futures tour and got to hear this front to back. This is amazing as well and so glad they're pressing it to vinyl.

38:12 in 2004, Night Drive played in the background on their website. And that’s how I listened to it so many times. There was a flash animated backdrop of the Superstition Mountains.

So amazing. One of the few bands that sounds just as good live as they do on record.

the guitar intro riff to Futures is literally rock and ROLL!!! i love the way it flows and rolls!! love Jimmy Eat, my hometown heroes!

This album is perfect from start to finish. As is the band and production. Brightened up a very dark time in my teens and lockdown too. Love from U.K. 🇬🇧

The most beautiful snare sound in all of music

Hard to believe we are coming up on 20 years of this being the soundtrack to my life. It’s really something I still listen to all the time. Sure - new music comes and goes. But Jimmy Eat World, and more importantly - this album, is always there when I need it.

I remember the ritual before watching these when I got the tickets back in the pandemic times. Pop a few beers, get me some popcorn and rock the hell out to this on my couch. Jimmy Eat World, I owe you EVERYTHING.

Just Tonight, Night Drive, 23 and my absolute fav Polaris brings me right back to high school....class of 06. JEW just knows how to encapsulate the feeling of being a teenager with their raw honest lyrics and angsty sound, by far their best album!!!🤘🏻

This dude never gets old. Damn

LEGENDS!!!❤

Just Tonight 🔥

One of my all time favourite albums!!

A dream that comes true for a french fan. Thank you Jimmy Eat World.

WTF 100K views............. this is better content than most of the garbage with 1 Million ....... Jimmy Eat World is killing it and have been for 20 years, talented and heartfelt lyrics singing songs, not a single 1 line song and a repeated hook chorus for 4 minutes! When I heard them for the first time I instantly connected to their music. Just set is just AWESOME!!!

Zach is such an amazing drummer

4:40 ok this sounds incredible just a technical marvel. The music and sounds lend so much to the poetry.

23 is by far one of the best songs ever

No single downtime or filler, this album is flawless, the first time I heard it, and always will be

This is Jimmy Eat World's best album. PERIOD!

10/20/2022 - I found this gem of a video. I will never forget listening to Futures for the first time in high school in 2004 and being completely blown away and in love. It's still absolute perfection all these years later.

I'm not saying that this is one of the albums of my life but... it is one of the albums of my life

Guys a lot of people really love "Chase This Light" ... I really wish you guys had shown it some love in the live sessions

I remember listen to this album religously when I was in my early teens and met my first crush and imagining our future together. We have been together for 13 years now. I cant belive time is going by so fast..

what a great band chemistry and attention to detail after all these years. 🤘🎸🥁🖤

Superb playing. Amazing vocals, genius production. Iconic band playing iconic songs.❤

Listening to this album again at my 31... hits harder than when it came out when i was a teenager... love Jiimy Eat World!

Ageless songs. This record and specially 23 have left a marked on me. It has changed me the way I listen and feel music. Thank you guys! I am glad and thankful I have seen you live once.

The year was 2001, I was 12 years old, my older cousin was busting The Middle as loud as it could go on his Sony HiFi system, that was the day I was introduced to Jimmy Eat World, ever since I have been a huge fan. Being introduced to them with Bleed American was priceless, Futures is amazing too, every single song they have written reminds me of that specific time in my life and my own story attached to it like many will say too. 23 is the ultimate song, I have a plethora of precious moments and memories attached to that song, many good, many bad, but at the end of the day it is very special to me. I have learnt many lessons in my life while listening to all of these, and of course all the other albums too. Man I wish I could see them live. Love, from the east coast of South Africa.

This is exquisite. One of my favorite albums played perfectly! Enjoyed every second. Come back to Chile 🇨🇱 please!

You're the best forever... Greetings from Venezuela...

Still love this.

I am from Ecuador South America. The year this album was realased I was a foreing exchange student in the USA. This album was the one I used to listen in winter. This bring me so may memories of the snow, which we don't have in the ecuator, and all the new experiences I could live there. So gratefull for them to make this live concert.

Oh my god this is so good

What an absolute thrill!!! It's amazing that this is available for free. A master class in performance of a legendary record.

It's always the same: I listen to one of songs and after that I need to hear them all... 😉👍🎵🎸

I purchased these at the time but thank you for finally releasing them to all. I’m eager to revisit these shows.

Kill still kills me everytime

work and kill are some of the best songs they ever did imo

After all these years one of my bands. Omg that voice, so amazing. 😍
