Oh man, I just saw this. A really good musician.

Damn. :Kaleun_Salute:

A great one for sure. His music ages so well and still seems relevant over the years. He will be missed.

Not dead. CBS screwed up and the rest of the drive by media ran with it.

Actually, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) screwed up: they were contacted by CBS, and other media outlets, and the LAPD spokesperson(s), acting on a report Petty had been taken off life support (also not yet officially confirmed by Petty's camp), told the media the LAPD has heard Petty was dead; the LAPD is currently trying to walk back their statement(s); CBS, and others, only reported what they believed to be a factual statement from an official source...

An article with the LAPD statement reversing the LAPD's previous reporting:

Actually, if one wants more accurate reporting about celebrity news, TMZ is far, far more accurate than not and actively seeks multiple confirmation about celeb news before posting...

Really enjoyed his music growing up, great artist. :(

Six months younger than I am. Makes you think.

While I have never been a huge fan of his, I recognize his unique and creative talent. I hope he is still with us and able to make a full recovery (though after a major heart attack, no respiration for an extended time, etc.) it will be challenging if he can survive it. Regardless, he and those close to him will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Multiple sources are now reporting that he has passed.

Yeah just read this article where his manager has confirmed he has passed away.

Rest in peace.
It is strange, i never was a real fan of him, but everytime i heard his music on the radio or on festivals, i was somehow moved and liked it. I have recently (last weeks) looked for his music first on the tube and then on amazon, to find some of his music that had somehow accompanied me again and again.
He was a great musician.

A geat musician and will be sorely missed.
