RIP Tom Petty
Loved his music and Superbowl performance... will be missed...  I'll keep this world from draggin me down... and I won't back down...  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nUTXb-ga1fo Oct 02 17 01:21 pm Link Playing with legends in Traveling Wilburys... George Harrison (Beatles)... Roy Orbison... Tom Keltner (drums)... Jeff Lynne (Electric Light Orchestra)... Bob Dylan... and of course... TOM PETTY! Life is fragile... 'Handle With Care' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8s9dmuAKvU Oct 02 17 01:34 pm Link Yeah, I just read about it, saw a post on Facebook and came here to start a thread... you beat me to it. It's sad news. I always did like his music. I only recently have listened to the Traveling Wilburys but they were a pretty good group, to say the least. Here's another of their videos: "End of the Line" -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwqhdRs4jyA Oct 02 17 01:37 pm Link highStrangeness wrote: NO DOUBT... superstars from several bands... shame about Roy's passing before their works were complete...

Oct 02 17 02:32 pm Link Update (5:30 p.m.): The Los Angeles Police Department says it inadvertently confirmed news of Petty’s death to CBS. “The LAPD has no information about the passing of singer Tom Petty,” it said. The LAPD’s confirmation to CBS was the most widely-shared report of Petty’s death. In other words his death is not confirmed but it sounds like it's just a matter of time. Oct 02 17 03:09 pm Link oh wow! I am in shock, he was just in Sacramento a few weeks ago. he canceled the show, and then made it up about a week later. RIP Tom Oct 02 17 03:11 pm Link Select Models wrote: I agree with you there; Roy had such a soulful voice. A voice really unlike anyone else's. I heard Roy was a pretty decent fellow in real life, too. For that matter, I figure Tom Petty was probably the same way. Oct 02 17 03:18 pm Link WOW... MSN just 'changed their story'. From their website at 11:30am today, they reported from TMZ that he was deceased. NOW... their updated story says he is on life support. If he's in a life-suspending coma... maybe they can bring him back... Oct 02 17 03:21 pm Link Select Models wrote: Let's hope he 'won't back down' from death and will overcome this.

Oct 02 17 05:24 pm Link what a cluster fuck of bad reporting all over this story. poor guy. whether he survives or not, this was a horrible bit of reporting. everyone racing for clicks, etc. fucking terrible. journalism is dead. that's the story. Oct 02 17 07:47 pm Link Here's the REAL scoop... including tweets from loads of celebrities who also got duped on the early reports...  http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/wir … h-50241445 Oct 02 17 09:10 pm Link Oct 02 17 09:40 pm Link when the manager confirms the story, it's real.
