Summer Tour 2006

I'm proud to announce the fist concert rumor of the season!

I heard Bonnaroo Festival organizers plan to target Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers to headline closing night.

Ok, I've got a little credibility and honestly, it's a pretty safe bet! Paul Zollo, author of Conversations with Tom Petty, has been quoted giving sometime in March as the release date for Tom Petty's Highway Companion. In America, all new releases come out on Tuesday. So, there's only four of them in a month, you do the math.

So if the album comes out in Spring, guess what usually follows... that's right, a Summer Tour! Bonnaroo is in June in Tennessee I think, so keep checking out gonegator.com for updates!

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers In Studio

Rumor (ok, a little better than rumor) has it that Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers are in the studio writing new songs. This is the VERY beginning of the process. No working titles, not even a target release date.

Not that my opinion means anything, but I heard they may start recording the new ones at the end of this year. So maybe a new album out in the Spring!?!?!
