Tom Petty Houston Show Rescheduled, Mojo Release Date

The Tom Petty show originally scheduled for May has been rescheduled for September 24 (the day before the Rush concert I'll be attending). From TomPetty.com:

Due to a delay in the arrival of Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers’ new album Mojo, it was announced today that the first 10 dates of the 2010 summer tour will be rescheduled in September and October.

The album will be released on Reprise Records on June 15. The band sincerely regrets any inconvenience caused and hope fans can make the rescheduled dates which are listed below.


Don't forget to pre-order Mojo from Amazon here for only $12.99.

And if you're wondering why I'm so excited about Mojo, consider this:

The first thing that hits you about MOJO is that the spirit of the Mudcrutch sessions has carried on with the Heartbreakers. This is the sound of a band playing together in a room - not a studio - facing each other, all singing and playing at the same time. The music is alive, with no overdubs or studio trickery. What you hear is what they created on the spot at that time.

Tom Petty says, “With this album, I want to show other people what I hear with the band. MOJO is where the band lives when it’s playing for itself.”
