Tom Petty, RIP

Apparently, he's been pulled off life support but there are no solid reports of his dying. At least it's not yet officially confirmed. Of course it's a tough situation.

 

BTW- I thought this article on his tour that wrapped up last week give a little nice insight into Petty and his band:

Petty and the Heartbreakers were musicians I respected more than I enjoyed; that was probably largely a function of my (then young) age and tastes. Then I saw the band live. Man, they were solid. Really really solid. Sigh.
