This day just got shittier.

Tom has died.  Massive heart attack.

Loved this guy. He was one of my favorites. And it didn't get much cooler than him.

Edit: cbs and others have restracted the death stories. Tom is still here. Gosh I hope he makes it.

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

This one hurts.  Tom Petty fan.  One of the few concerts I never made and had actually looked up his tours for next year so I could mark this one off my list. 

You don't know how it feels.

Echo all of this. Looked up his tours every year to see if he was closeby. Such a smooth rebel.

This one really got to me more than most.

Weird because some major outlets are reporting it. I saw it from cbs.

But others like his official Xm channel and tmz are not reporting it.

Yeah, this one sucks big time.  I don't mean this like it sounds, but I'm almost glad it was a heart attack and not how so many have gone recently.  Suicide and overdose are preventable for the most part.  I look at it like he lived on his own terms until something took him.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Tmz and fox are reluctant to say he's dead while billboard, NBC and cbs said he was gone. What a weird fuckin day this has been all the way around.

Recently confirmed. He's gone.


From his FB page:



On behalf of the Tom Petty family we are devastated to announce the untimely death of our father, husband, brother, leader and friend Tom Petty.


He suffered cardiac arrest at his home in Malibu in the early hours of this morning and was taken to UCLA Medical Center but could not be revived.


He died peacefully at 8:40pm PST surrounded by family, his bandmates and friends.


- Tony Dimitriades, longtime manager of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers on behalf of the family

Can we use the word icon here?
