Jimmy Eat World played a "secret" show in Scottsdale, AZ last Thursday.
Only it wasn't really a secret; the Mesa-born band spilled the beans on themselves through Facebook.
That's also where they released their forthcoming sixth album, "Invented," 60 seconds at a time.
"We just wanted to give our fans a little taste of the new record, give them something to get excited about," guitarist Tom Linton said during a phone call last week from his Chandler home.
The album reunites the band with their old producer Mark Trombino, who was with Jimmy Eat World on their first three recordings.
Jimmy Eat World returns to the road for the first time in nearly two years to showcase "Invented," their follow-up to 2007's "Chase This Light."
Linton said playing for Arizona audiences is a lot like a family reunion. "There's not as much pressure when we're at home," he said. "It's like playing for our friends and family."
