Tom Petty in critical condition after suffering full cardiac arrest

The “Free Fallin’” singer, 66, was reportedly found unconscious and not breathing in his Malibu home, and was subsequently taken to the UCLA Santa Monica Hospital, where he "had no brain activity."

Damn, sure wouldn't have thought he would be soon to go of natural causes. I listen to his show on XM radio and he was in the middle of a big tour.

Wow to the recent deaths. Think of Hef or Petty what you think, but they are undeniable legends. I only know Monty Hall from the Monty Hall problem.

Tom Petty is as good as popular music gets, and by all indications also a first class human being. Absolutely terrible news, ****.

It appears that news of Tom Petty's death has been exaggerated (still in bad shape though).

It was definitely worth the trouble, and the fight, Tom.

Long After Dark is my favorite Petty album...it's criminally underrated.

Lots of sadness in the last few days.

Getting a little tired of this.

This one hurts. Petty has always been there. His first album was when I discovered rock and roll. Later, Damn the Torpedoes was a revelation. I thought I'd get at least one more chance of seeing him live. He was planning an acoustic tour along with a double album rerelease of Wildflowers.

Hard to fathom a music world without him. He has never been uncool, he never fell out of favor, he was always just...there. And playing.

Like Bowie, he will always be a giant to me. Maybe THE giant. They both belonged to me, to my generation, and not to the older kids. At least not as much.

RIP

Daliman posted something on Facebook about The Traveling Wilburys, and it applied to me, as well.



When this pic was taken, all of them were younger than my 54 years. And now, there's only two left.

Weird.

Pretty decent for a live concert recording, from their latest tour.

Very bizzare coincidence today. Around 0800 I went to do surgery and brought my ipod full of 8000+ songs. Usually i put on the same dozen or so playlists that all the nurses and anesthesiologists must be sick of. I *rarely* choose an album when i operate.

This morning my fingers dialed up Tom Petty's greatest hits without any hesitation

I've only had 2 hero's that I didn't know in my life and Tom Petty is one of them. I am really quite shook up. What a spirit and what a talent.

Always loved this 1979 picture of the band.

I was born a rebel, down in Dixie, on a Sunday morning.
