I didn’t want to start the new season in earnest while I was away as I knew I wouldn’t have as much time to prep and barely any to record and edit, so I wanted to get a special episode and was trying to think of what to do to ease into the season. These two dates in 2002 completely destroy the conventional wisdom that you don’t go to see a "legacy act" to hear music from their new record. Hearing this album played live in this way almost makes it the only way to think about this tour. Imagine if the Heartbreakers had put on similar performances for albums like Long After Dark, Wildflowers, and Hypnotic Eye. Even if you performed them as part of a mini-residency, hearing albums in their entirety in this way gives them a much more cohesive resonance that is lost if you cherry pick two or three singles.You can check out the entire performance here : https://youtu.be/yLl2_JIlKpsDon't forget to follow me on social media, like, subscribe, and please, leave a rating if you like the show.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thetompettyprojectTwitter: https://twitter.com/TomPettyProjectInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetompettyprojectYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thetompettyprojectThe theme song is provided by my very best friend Randy Woods.
