Calling all Tom Petty fans!
Gainesville's favorite sons, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, are making their only Florida appearance in their old home town on Thursday, in celebration of their 30th anniversary. Since Petty won't be making the trek to South Florida, I imagine some of his South Florida fans will be making the trek to him.
If you're one of those people, or know someone who is, why not do a nice newspaper lady a solid and let me know! I'll be headed to Gator Land myself and I'm looking for local Heartbreakers enthusiasts to write about. Let me know how to get in touch with you, and we'll be rocking out to "American Girl" en masse.

Hi, I just read your post. I have seen petty 2 times, once in London At Shepards Bush Empire(about 2,500) Capicity....Awesome! And once at the Graden in Ny. This is by far the most exciting and you can meet me at the Bar before the show. The idea of walking home from this show makes it all the more interesting.
PS, I work at a hotel in town here, and would be happy to look into accomodations for you if that is an issue.

from 2-6 on Thurs. You'll get a lot of info there. its Beef O Brady's 1999 NW 43rd St. Gainesville Fl 32605
