Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are coming to Portland for the very first time! As far as I know, this will be only the second time they’ve performed live in Maine. Their first trip here was to the Bangor Auditorium in the late ’70s, so this is will be an historic night of rock for Blimpville!

According to the press release from the Cumberland County Civic Center the 2014 North American tour will include a show in Portland, Maine on Sunday, Aug. 31 at 7:30 pm. This Civic Center show will also feature very special guest Steve Winwood.

Every ticket will include Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers highly anticipated new album, Hypnotic Eye. The new studio album will be released on July 27. Reserved Seat Tickets are on sale Friday, June 27 at the Civic Center’s Trusted Choice Box office, by phone at 207-775-3458 or all Ticket Master locations.

To get you even more psyched than you already are, here's an unreleased Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers full-length show from New Year's Eve, 1978. It features "Refugee" performed live before it's release on "Damn The Torpedoes." If you are a hardcore fan, you gotta see this!
