Billboard online has reported that Tom Petty will be one of the headliners at this year's Austin City Limits Festival. The first leg of his summer tour will feature opening act Trey Anastasio and will be followed by a run of six shows that includes Pearl Jam as part of a double-bill. The second leg of the tour will feature the Allman Brothers band and the Dereck Trucks Band. The opening act for the third leg of the summer tour, which includes ACL, has not yet been announced. So put Petty on the list of confirmed headliners and continue/start the rumors about Trey and The Allmans being a part of ACL.

I'm really pushing for Wreckx-n-Effect to make a showing. Damn those boys are good.
