I'm so sorry to hear that. He was a great songwriter. I had the chance to meet him once at my dad's house of all places.

It looks like he lost the fight. RIP Tom

That's sad to hear... I can't say I was ever really into his music, but that doesn't mean I couldn't respect him for being a heck of a musician and an influence on anyone who heard him. I'll have to put on a playlist and give it another listen.

WTF... He did not seem close to death...Any idea what happened?

Sad news indeed, I'll have to re-watch his 4 hour documentary in honour of his contributions to the global music scene !

Sad day in the music industry. I've been a musician for right at 30 years. It seems like Tom Petty's music was always there. Probably because I was born in 77. His first album was in 76. I guess I'll be playing some Petty tonight.
