TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS donate tickets

TOM PETTY & THE HEARTBREAKERS donated tickets to their sold-out summer tour in a special auction to raise money that will specifically help support Habitat for Humanity affiliates in areas affected by the June 2008 Midwest floods. The band played in many of the cities in areas affected by the floods and raised more than $85,000 for Habitat For Humanity flood relief. The band offered up front row and other premium seats with all proceeds from the auction, including face value of the tickets, going to Habitat For Humanity’s Midwest flood relief efforts. Ticketmaster, waiving its fees associated with these tickets, coordinated the entire auction for the band. Visit www.tompetty.com.
