Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers have long been a favorite and it is great to see them out with so many dates for their summer tour. While this schedule pales in comparison to their touring schedule in their younger years, it is still an impressive list of dates. They kick off in May and go right through the next four months performing three or four shows a week, depending on how close the venues are to each other.

Anyone that has ever been to a Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers show already knows how incredible they can be, and this tour should be no different. In addition to the array of hits that the band has put out, fans will be treated to some incredible guest appearances along the way. Some of the names have already been released and include: Joe Cocker, Crosby, Stills and Nash and ZZ Top.
