I'm not sure if I'm the only one to notice, but it seems like as they both get older Chrissy Hynde and Tom Petty look more and more alike. Anyhow, the guys in American Bang are about to see the resemblance, if there really is any, first hand. Starting Jan. 29, they will embark on a month long tour with the rock 'n' roll hall of famers. The closest show to Nashville is on Feb. 13 in Cincinnati. If you want to see the American Bangsters without making that trek than you can catch them for free tonight at Mercy Lounge, as part of the 666 anniversary series. Sadly, The Pretenders will not be appearing.
