GOOD GRIEF!! I hate this day! I really do. I had to take a break from everything happening in Vegas and went down for a nap. And I wake up to this?? I agree, Sandy. This is a REALLY CRAPPY DAY. RIP, Tom. You were one of my favorites......

As of 5:30pm est PASTE is reporting a conflicting report that he did not pass but is on life support. LAPD is tweeting that have no information about his passing....

Damn the Torpedos was awesome! And I really dug Wildflowers.
If you have not seen the nigh 3 hour Netflix movie on Petty and Heartbreakers, it is totally worth it. How he went up against the record company too, and won, encouraged Roger McGuinn not to do a certain song that was basically selling out. And all the Wilbury work, TP was awesome!

Variety, too. Apparently there was some misinformation disseminated by the LAPD. I have a sinking feeling he'll never be the same though.

The first two lines of this favorite of mine about sum this day up:

"Some days are diamonds

Some days are rocks"
