THE OLD MAN STILL HAS IT: TOM PETTY @ THE HOLLYWOOD BOWL

After I lived through the STROKES doing what they do best, mail it in, LA got a treat last night > TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS at the HOLLYWOOD BOWL. Complete with special guests like STEVIE NICKS and JEFF LYNN, the band stomped through their hits, or part of them anyway, and reminded everyone that not many bands are still around that cross generations the way they do from that far back. The kids behind us knew every word to songs off the new album, "Highway Companion", while the dad with his 2 daughters in front of us pumped his fist for "Don't Come Around Here No More". It was my first trip to the Bowl and it more than lived up to all the hype, simply gorgeous!
