TAMPA BAY – To honor Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ Saturday Night Live performance this Saturday, May 15, Live Nation recently joined with the band to offer fans a special no ticket processing fee discount on tickets beginning this Saturday, May 15 at 11:30 p.m. EST. The offer will end on Tuesday, May 18 at 11:59 p.m. EST. This offer is only available at participating venues, and other fees may apply. Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers will bring their 2010 North American tour to the St. Pete Times Forum on Thursday, September 16 at 7:30 p.m.
All 2010 Tour tickets purchased online will include an MP3 download of every track on the Heartbreakers’ electrifying new album, Mojo. It will work like this; once fans purchase tickets online they will receive an email with codes entitling them to download two tracks from Mojo (“First Flash Of Freedom” and “Good Enough.”) Then, on the release date of the album, currently slated for this spring, ticket buyers will be sent a download of the entire album. Also included with every online ticket purchase, to be delivered at the end of the 2010 tour, will be a selection of live tracks recorded during the tour.
Mojo is a fiery statement from a band that is making some of their most exciting music over three decades into their career. “Good Enough” from the new album is now available for streaming at the revamped tompetty.com. More details on the new album to follow soon.
