Tom Petty's Mudcrutch To Play Live....

Tom Petty's original rock band, Mudcrutch, will mark its comeback with a series of California shows, ending with a four-night run at the Troubadour in Los Angeles.The Free Fallin' rocker formed the group in his native Gainesville, Florida with pals Tom Leadon and Randall Marsh in the early 1970s.The group became a cult live act in Petty's home state but never released an album.Last year (07), Petty reformed the group and recorded an album in just two weeks, and now Mudcrutch has a series of dates scheduled, beginning with a benefit in Malibu, California on 12 April (08).The shows will wrap up with a four-night stint at the fabled Troubadour in West Hollywood at the end of next month.
