TP always puts on a great show, and w/ Winwood, this will be a fantastic concert. Looking forward to the new venue. I’m in.

I’m in for Winwood. Seen him numerous times in the last few years. He’s definitly still got the jam in his soul.

Check out the Runnin’ Down a Dream DVD if you like Petty. I watched it a couple of weeks ago and it was fantastic. Really well made.

I love TP. I just hope he leaves Stevie Nicks and other hangers-on behind this time.
