Tom Petty found Unconscious in Cardiac Arrest [Update: Tom Petty has passed away]

Hope he pulls through, I've always liked Tom Petty......

 

No.......................

 

Don't do him like that!

 

Like Springsteen and Mellencamp, he's just sort of ubiquitous American rock.

eta: He was awesome at the ACL fest back in the day...HUGE thunderstorm is rolling in, he stuck it out until it got unsafe, he said "If yall want to stick around, we'll be back for more later." We were, he did.

 

Such a cool dude. I hope he is all right. :/

 

Sh*t. I hope he pulls through. One of my absolute favorites. His station on Sirius is on my radio near constantly.

 

hopefully he won't back down

 

Heh, usually don't get affected by celebrity deaths but reading this headline actually made me anxious. Hope he pulls through or goes out peacefully and as painlessly as possible, whatever the outcome is.

 

I just heard it on the radio. Love his music and really hoping for the best.

 

Just heard on the radio that TMZ is reporting that at the hospital there was no brain activity and life support has been pulled. THis is TMZ so take it with a shaker of salt .

 

his wikipedia page indicates he died today

 

This video : (

 

NO

 

We're told after Petty got to the hospital he had no brain activity and a decision was made to pull life support.

No ****ing way. Wow, this hurts badly.

 

I just saw him in San Diego. WOW.

 

that's one of the best videos on youtube :X

 

What a horrible day. Las Vegas is bad enough, but now I have to absorb losing a hell of a good musician and songwriter, who led the second best band I ever saw backing up Bob Dylan. Damn, this is bad news.

 

FIFY. Especially since Seger is about to play at The Woodlands on the 19th.

EDIT: WAIT; is this for real? Damn!
