If you want to hear the greatest Tom Petty and the Heartbreaker’s band in the world live, go see Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers! If you can’t do that, go see Petty Theft!

**** 4 stars for Petty Theft
* 1 star for Zoo Station

Bottom line: Petty Theft got an encore as the opening act, and Zoo Station didn't as the headliner. That says it all and means I was not the only one that liked Petty Theft more than Zoo Station.

Petty Theft opened the show, and these guys didn't try to look like them or move like them they just PLAYED like them. Great musicianship, great sound, I'd see them again and recommend them to anyone that loves Tom Petty or just loves to listen to a talented band.

Zoo Station "headlined" the show, and they were nowhere near as good as Petty Theft. The lead singer had a leather outfit on and Bono glasses and he moved like Bono and tried to talk like Bono, but he cannot SING like Bono at all. So here's the problem, if you're going to try and BE Bono you have to sound like him too. Otherwise just go up and play your version of the U2 songs and rock it just like Petty Theft did. Also, the sound was very empty and lacking, because anyone that knows U2 knows that Edge comes with tons of prerecorded audio to fill in for all the produced sounds on the CDs. Another thing, "Fake Bono" spent a ton of time running around in the audience which really took away from the show because when he did this no one could see him except for the people that he was standing near and the band wasn't doing anything special to draw your attention to them. This behavior just didn't fit the venue and made him look stupid.

So, I would see Petty Theft again and they need to headline or be the only band playing. I would not see Zoo Station again, even if it was free admission.

The shows were very good. especially U2, the reason I went.
Tom Petty played for 1 hr, until 9pm. and after a break U2 started at maybe 9:10. They finished just at 10pm, with no encore. Their music and Bono's stage show were a good
'tribute' to U2. But just too short!!!

You can tell by these 2 photos taken from various stages around Northern California that Petty Theft is very much loved and adored by it's full capacity crowds at every show. The venues these are taken from are George's in San Rafael, CA and Last Day Saloon in Santa Rosa, CA.

Petty Theft, San Francisco’s ultimate Tom Petty tribute band pays homage to Tom Petty and his amazing history of creating righteous rock and roll. Petty Theft is a tribute band that rocks hard with well executed Heartbreaker covers, often gathering the devoted Petty Heads into full-on sing-alongs where the audience becomes as much a part of the experience as the band of recreating Tom Petty's incredible back catalogue of songs.

With Petty Theft, there is none of the campiness that some cover bands try to achieve when emulating another rock band. With Petty Theft, it's all about the greatness of the songs and music of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
