His songs provide for some great memories. Very talented musician. Saw one of his concerts in the 80's and he put on a great show. RIP.

I was never much of a Tom Petty fan, but the Heartbreakers were brilliant!

We all are dying, it's sad that so many of our rocker stars are passing this year. Thank you Mr. Petty for your brilliance and artistry. RIP.

22000 went to see Jason Aldean; 59 of them also got to see Tom Petty.

I got to see Tom Petty in concert in West Palm Beach earlier this year.
He was always one of my favorite artists.
RIP

Talented musician. Have enjoyed his songs through the years. Super sad as he was settling down away from touring to spend time with his grandchildren.

RIP

Not big into his music but def impressed with the length of his career and staying relevant over multiple decades.

I do love his long-ago duet with Stevie Nicks "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around"
