So many memories associated with Tom Pettys catalog. With each song I can relive a particular time in my life where I recall singing every word (which I knew most of his songs every single word) and it having special meaning.

Sad sad day

He's not dead YET!

Yes, this is Heartbreaking.

 

[witchdoctor]

CBS just said he was in the hospital , didn't say he was dead

Been to a few petty shows and he always rocks them. To be honest I thought he was a lot older. How shitty.

Man I used to rock out to his albums, he did pretty good n the Postman movie also.

Not sure if he passed yet. He is off life support though.

One of the best musicians that has been around in our lifetime. Changed music history for sure and while staying fairly level. There is a great documentary on him on Amazon.

Edit: And fake news... How many people heard he was dead and just knew it was true.

 

[Jeff B]

I hope I was fed fake news & he is recovering.

 

[rodney eppes]

Not Dead Yet! Yes, I saw the article in the Paper this morning. CBS Jumped the gun! But on the 6 am News, it was said he Did Pass overnight. RIP!

 

[frankenyoter]

He passed about 8:30

"It's time to move on, time to get going
What lies ahead, I have no way of knowing
But under my feet, baby, grass is growing
It's time to move on, it's time to get going"
