After playing only 13 shows in America over the past two years, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers will hit the road hard stateside in 2013. In addition to previously announced headlining sets at Firefly, Bonnaroo and the Hangout Fest, the legendary performers have unveiled a full slate of North American tour dates. The tour starts on May 16th at The Ford Center in Evansville, Indiana and runs until a June 29th show at The Target Center in Minneapolis. It also includes a five-night stand at the Beacon Theatre in New York City and a six-night stand at the Fonda Theater in Los Angeles.
Now three years removed from the last Petty record, though they are in the midst of recording a new one, you can expect the setlists to contain “the hits” with a smattering of covers and rarities that change ever so slightly from show to show. Last year the Heartbreakers busted out Spike from Southern Accents, Hard Promises’ Something Big and The Damage You’ve Done from Let Me Up (You’ve Had Enough) as well as covers such as Carol (Chuck Berry), Travelin’ Light (JJ Cale) and I’m A Man (Spencer Davis Group). Hopefully they continue to dig deep in 2013.
