Anyone seen Tom Petty in concert this summer?

I am a huge Tom Petty fan, and I went to see his concert in Maryland last night. It was a good time, but he just looked so old and tired. He didn't really have the enthusiasm that he had when I saw him the last two times. It was like he was exhausted after the littlest dance move. Has anyone else noticed this? I feel so bad for poor Tom!

We saw him at Jones Beach and felt the same way. He still sang well, but didn't jump around much or even move much. Just sometimes turned around at the end of a song.

Aww, that's sad. I didn't; see him this year, but I did a few years ago ( 1999, maybe?) & was impressed at how much energy he had. But, that was 6 yers ago, so I guess it's catching up to him.

ETA--He's 55. I thought he was older than that, but he had some rough years.
