Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers play live on the Late Show with David Letterman, and Tom gives a brief discussion about his new album (and the novelty of MP3 downloads) before their performance. This aired on April 13, 1999.
As far as I am aware, this performance has never been officially released.

2) “Room At The Top”
DVD resolution (704×480 interlaced, 29.97 fps)
Audio 44.1 kHz / 16 bit mono PCM restored from AC3 stream (hum removed, volume increased)
Lineage:
Cable TV broadcast // mono Toshiba VCR at SP speed // another mono Toshiba VCR at SP speed (2nd gen) // Panasonic DMR-E80H DVD burner at XP speed // lossless digital copy made with MakeMKV // this segment spliced from the DVD using MKVTooNix // audio restored using iZotope RX 10 Advanced // remuxed using MKVToolNix
The MKV file includes the original MPEG video stream; no re-encoding has been performed. The 2nd gen VHS video tape included several different unrelated performances recorded over a period of several months, which was recorded in its entirety to DVD before I received it. Therefore, doing this splicing was necessary for proper organization of the music content.
