Heart attack. Really sad. Had quite a few good (great) times hanging out with friends and listening to his tunes. One of the good guys   :aok

Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

The effin Grim Reaper needs to take a holiday, dammit! He's getting all the good ones, and I'm fed up with it.
Always have been a Petty fan, he was a good talent. Loved his stuff with Orbison and The Traveling Wilburys.

 I never really paid Tom Petty a lot of attention until a few months ago when I watched a documentary about him on netflix. At that time I realized how much of a natural artist he has been.
 The world has lost someone who made music that was pure in a category of its own.

Y'all Tom Petty is still clinging to life last I heard

You can click on the link Bailey provided to see that it was reported wrong that Tom Petty had died earlier

Hoping he pulls through

sad to hear  :cry      Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers were a pretty major part of my youth.   His kind are literally a dying breed, and quite unfortunately so.   Music now......I dont even want to get started down that road.    R.I.P. Tom       :pray
