Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are heading out on a tour next year in celebration of their 40th anniversary, and if you’ve never seen them before, this may be your last shot. In an interview with Rolling Stone, Petty says there’s a good chance this will be the last big tour they put on.
"I'm thinking it may be the last trip around the country," Petty shares. "It's very likely we'll keep playing, but will we take on 50 shows in one tour? I don't think so. I'd be lying if I didn't say I was thinking this might be the last big one."It seems Petty’s age and his family may be influencing his decision to give up the road. "We're all on the backside of our 60s," he says. "I have a granddaughter now I'd like to see as much as I can. I don't want to spend my life on the road. This tour will take me away for four months. With a little kid, that's a lot of time."
He'll be bringing his tour to Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines on June 5th. Keep listening to win FREE tickets...
