    As with all things in life, you always are sure you will have the time to do all the things your heart desires. I love Tom Petty and always thought I would see him “sometime”. That sometime never came because he was taken from us way too soon. I know all the folks reading this are probably younger than me…..don’t wait for that “sometime”

      I only got to see Tom Petty once and that was in 2015 when my hubby and I took our teenaged son & daughter. We had amazing floor tickets and my kids were just blown away with Tom and they knew all his songs as they grew up listening to classic rock. I wish I could've seen him at least one more time before he passed - I bawled the day he died as I felt like I had lost a friend...

    When this concert was recorded, I was with my wife in Gainesville, she was undergoing a bone marrow transplant at Shands. At the time of this concert I didn't even hear anything about it, we were so caught up in the game of living or dying.
    It wasn't until just a few years ago that I ran across it. I only mentioned it to my wife a few days ago.
    When I told her about how we had missed this concert She kicked me in the shin HARD. We should have gone she yelled at me. I reminded her she was quite sick at the time, to which she replied I would have gotten well a lot sooner had I known Tom Petty was playing just a few blocks away.
    Obviously she beat her AML.

    This concert was shot by famed director Peter Bogdonovich as part of a documentary he did on Petty called "Running Down a Dream." Well worth watching if you have not seen it. Petty's liife, from humble nobody in Gainesville Fla to international rock star, was truly remarkable and it was well covered by this film. One of the best rock star documentaries I have ever seen.

    I was Tom's neighbor back in the early 2000s. Super Kool dude. I was bringing in my garbage containers in one afternoon when I saw him walking his dog and he said, "Where's Chase? Chase was our Shitzu who unfortunately passed away recently, but was a hit in the community back then. Chase was that pet who always made a point to sniff, bark, pee, and poo and everyone's lawn on the street.😅

      Saw Tom Petty 1980ish in Austin, Texas at the Armadillo World Headquarters. If you never had the privilege, all concerts at the Armadillo were so affordable at that time because everyone came to Austin on their first tour and you could stand right up front by the stage and see the musicians up close, which was incredible. Tom Petty and the ❤breakers were magnificent from the start. I love the song “Refugee” and they played it , of course, because it was their big hit at the time. Pretty sure they came back through Austin not long after and I got to see Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers again. RIP dear Tom. You are loved by so so many. Thank you for all that you gave this world. ❤💙🌸🌷🌼🌺🌹🌻💐🪷🦋🧚‍♂️🍀⭐️🌊🏵️🎸🎸🎸🎹🥁💽💿📀💘💘💘☮️

    Almost every time we ask our Facebook communities for songs that have helped them through depression or a particularly hard time in life, someone brings up Tom Petty. No, music can’t cure a mental anguish or make hard times go away, but it certainly can help guide us through or at least provide moments of comfort. For many, Petty did this. As one friend put it, “He is the only musician I have ever listened to that made me feel like he was singing about my life.”

    I saw Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in Vancouver months before he died, not only was the second hand smoke worth it, the acoustic version of this song has stuck with me ever since. I don’t think this version is appreciated as much as it should be and perhaps that’s because he did it this way live and the radio only plays the album version. Man I wish I could see him live one more time, maybe it was meant to be this way. So sad, but makes me so happy I got to be there.

    No one ever mentions what dandies they all were. Silk shirts, scarves, vests, blazers, cool hats. Such a difference from everyone else wearing t-shirts and jeans - not that there’s anything wrong with that. I just love seeing these videos, including shows I attended. TP and the Heartbreakers always had this elegant, rock n’ roll look and I loved it.

    • @evanmorrow1234
      @evanmorrow1234 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is damn near impossible to play guitar with a set of wings. The feathers muffle the strings and it's hard to "feather" a chord and have it sound decent. Holding on to a pick is very difficult as well and it usually ends up on the floor and then you have to start playing "feather style guitar".

      One thing about "before my time"..... The music lives on for everyone to enjoy. Never get stuck in generational music. I grew up with Elvis, moving on to Janis Joplin, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Beatles, The Great Tom Petty and continuing to love the Cure, Brian Fallon, Dave Matthews, and so many not mentioned. Favorite who I follow: Pearl Jam The music never stops.
