Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

In 1999, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were riding high on the success of their album "Echo," which was released earlier that year. This period marked a creative resurgence for the band, blending their classic rock sound with fresh influences. The live performance of "Don't Come Around Here No More" at the Target Center in Minneapolis showcases not only Petty's enduring charisma but also the band's tight musicianship. This song, initially released on their 1985 album "Southern Accents," captures the band's ability to evolve while staying true to their roots.
