Just heard on the radio Tom Petty was rushed to the hospital with full cardiac arrest. They say he is not breathing on his own.
Is it bad that every time I see one of these threads, I immediately head to the Death Pool 2017 thread to check if anyone had the pick?
Saw him at Nassau Coliseum during Damn the Torpedoes Tour, circa 1980. Great, great show. What a career he had - so many awesome songs. Very sad day. RIP
It appears as though he's still alive. Hospitalized after being found unconscious with little brain activity. But there's conflicting reports. CBS reported he had passed away, but LAPD quickly changed that saying that they had no information on him passing. Loved his music, and still do. Seems like a great man as well.
So sad ...a favorite rocker of mine for years Saw him a few years back with Bob Dylan at MSG Bowie Allman and now poor Tom all falling like flies this year
I saw him at Nassau coliseum on the full moon fever tour. Lenny kravitz opened on what I think was his first tour
