## Resource

Jimmy Eat World’s Jim Adkins had to cancel shows after emergency surgery for a detached retina — a condition he noticed as a shadow in his vision before a Mexico City gig. Doctors warned performing could cause permanent damage, so he stepped back to heal, with bandmates Zach Lind, Tom Linton, and Rick Burch fully supporting his decision. Fans flooded social media with well wishes, reminding everyone to prioritize health. Though the band missed Warped Tour, Louder Than Life, and Shaky Knees, they’re set to return in November for SEMA Fest in Vegas — marking the 25th anniversary of “Bleed American.” A powerful reminder: your body matters more than any headline.
