Well looks like Wikipedia changed there site to reflect that he is still alive a few minutes ago
Appears he is brain dead and removed from life support but still alive? Either way, not much difference. Wow that sucks big time |

AFAIK he hasn't played here in Gainesville since early 70s and actually hates the place.
I do know there used to be several places for parties that were known as "the house Tom Petty grew up in". Not sure if any of 'em actually were... And his Dad gave good fishing advice. |

Wow. I'm floored. It's gonna take some time to process this one...
This is one of my favorite's of his. One of many. Freaking musical genius in my estimation.... That first album was like manna from heaven. RIP, Tom. I always felt like you were really one of us...

In addition to his music, I always loved him as the voice of Lucky on King of the Hill:

What staying power Tom had. Decade after decade.
Of all the singers I've seen live, Tom Petty seemed to be the most joyful in performing. RIP
