just heard reports on radio that Tom Petty has died, although Stuff and Herald reporting his life support turned off after heart attack.

Now this one sucks. What a musician.

[Bovidae]

So only 2 of the Traveling Wilburys left now.

[NTA]

Now hearing that he's still on life support but has a DNR - all very confusing.

[taniwharugby]

so just heard on the radio that some media outlet has advised they made a mistake and Tom Petty is still clinging to life...?

[MajorRage]

Yeah, widely reported that the death claims were incorrect.

Although it would appear that it's just temporary, at best.

What a performance from Prince there. Unbelievably awesome.

Tom was good in his own right though. Plenty of decent material to sing along to in the car.

One of those artists who was just kinda there for years without being one you either really loved or hated.

@mn5 Both gone now, and were remembering George Harrison. The Heavenly Wilburys will now have the makings of a band.

Netflix has a cracking doco on Tom and the heartbreakers.
It's about 3 hours long though

Comedian Sean Hughes dies, aged 51

Fats Domino.

No more thrill on blueberry hill.

For some reason I always remember him in the doco Jools Holland did on American music. Must have been a big thrill for Holland to sit and play with the big man.
