Comments
Sooooo happy!!
Yay, my sister and I LOVE her and here music.... This just made my week! Best surprise is a long time :)
I Ain't Over Yet
I echo the comment of another who said earlier that if anyone regrets getting a ticket to this concert because Regina Spektor is opening for TPATH he'd gladly purchase it. The same goes for me, especially if it's the Atlanta show. Some from my company's main corporate office in Atlanta already got tickets and are going, and I'd like to join them if I could. You detractors of Ms Spektor have no clue what you're missing. Tom is one smart guy for choosing her.
PLEASE!?
COME TO PHILLY!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!!!!!
If in UK
Regina must sing The Call
peartree
May I sing backup? Pretty please, General Petty?
Interesting.
Ive always had some kind of weird connection with some of her music. I just hope she sings "Samson"
no
guess I'll be skipping the opening act ...disappointing
Awesome!
Great! I'd be there if you were coming to Chicagoland.
Ugh.
I'm sure she's a popular choice for people who dot their i's w/ a heart. I am not one of those people.
STOKED!
I am super-excited about this!!! )Hence the number of exclamation marks). Don't let the haters get you down, Regi.
Jealous!
Regina is a phenomenal artist and even better live! Wish this tour was coming to Philadelphia.
super happy!
Regina makes such beautiful music! I'm soo excited she'll be on tour with Tom Petty. Regina is my all time favorite and Tom Pettys my moms all time favorite so I'm super excited(:
Not Happy
She will steal the show and your heart
Excellent choice...
This will be my 10th time seeing TPATH and I'm so glad to hear(read) that Regina will be opening. I think she's the perfect choice! While I enjoyed seeing The Black Crowes, Steve Winwood, and CSN, I think Regina is a much more relevant, unique choice.
SO EXCITED
I have been dying to see Regina for years. If TPHB comes anywhere near me I very well may go just to see her. She is amazing talented and will bring A LOT to the concerts. Tom Petty is lucky to have talent like her open for him.
Very happy!
Sure, she's a different choice, but it's good to have variety at concerts. It'd be lame to just have a TPHB soundalike band up there before the actual band.
Also, I love her voice. It's all soft and sweet without being sugarcoated candy pop. Kinda folky, actually.
Not to be sexist by remarking on the looks of a female performer, but those eyes.....and DEM LIPS!
Yeah, I'm glad I bought tickets. A choice from left field, TPHB, but a good choice.
<3 Regina
Regina Spektor opening for them will be a big factor in why I will see them in May. Be grateful that in this age of "Musicians" that only know how to make music with their mouse and computer keyboard, that you're getting someone who knows how to actually sing and play instruments. I've seen far far far worse opening acts for more successful bands. If you're regretting your purchase, I'll gladly buy your tickets if you're near me.
Hooray!
Love Tom Petty, but I adore Ms. Spektor. If only they were coming to western New York or Toronto. Sigh.
Jealous
Man, wish I was gonna be anywhere around these cities for this time. Tom Petty and Regina Spektor would be sweet.
Really?
Ditto honeybee.
bummed
Oh, I am so bummed! I was hoping you would be doing a show near PA! I can't make it to your benefit show and I've wanted to see you more than anything for years and years. waaa I'm about to move to California and i fear i will never have the chance to see you live.
Luckily..
it's not about the opening act. I would be just as happy with no warm up act. Either way I can't wait!!!
love regina spektor!!
I could not be happier about this news!! I LOVE Regina Spektor....been listening to her since Soviet Kitsch came out! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
UK
WHATEVER it takes she MUST be the SPECIAL guest for Tom in the UK
What an absolutley fabulous night that would be, come on guys sign her up and get hRegina over here.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE AND PLEASE
Interesting
Not super familiar, but digging the stuff on her site. Interesting choice.
Regina Spektor
Oh.
Not happy
This is not the type of open act I would expect from TPHB. Too bad I already paid for my tickets. Next time I know better.
