Tightest band in U.S. band history. They gave their everything, individually and collectively, on every tune they played for 40 years. They are the Beatles, Stones and Queen all rolled into one. R.I.P. Tom Petty and Howie Epstein. Stay strong to all the rest of the Heartbreakers still rockin' today.
It was a hot day, and he had his leather on, his dog collar... a born story teller! That's what his songs so special: so many stories about this, that, and everything else.
This video is so nostalgic. I started listening to Tom and the boys about 7 years after this but I was born in ‘86. I got into the band as my dad had their stuff on tape so we’d listen to it on road trips. You can tell Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers were down to earth, normal sort of guys who dared to dream. They followed what came naturally to them. This video is what I’d regard as them at their height. I got to see them play at Hyde Park just before Tom passing and feel really grateful for it. They were absolutely outstanding. Amazing. RIP Tom and thanks, gents 🤝 🎶
I love it as well. He was such an awesome musical genius! I listen to him 3-4 hours a night until I passout on youtube. I have been this way since he passed and the tears flow everyday. I wonder what my obsession is all about?? There is a pull on me too stay very connected. Maybe because I am a writer too. I have been working on a few licks in the past few months.
This was at Rich Stadium in Buffalo - I was there with some school buddies - Grateful Dead opened the show - great July 4th weekend, our first Dylan concert - Petty was bang on awesome!
One of the greatest song writers EVER! Been to 3 TP shows and they were all so damned good! What a band behind him too. Spike and his dog collar. That's so damn cool. We have all known a "Spike"...
Tom Petty is my all time favorite singer!! Also the band is so talented!! They complement each other perfectly:-). So many of my generation of singers are gone to soon.
Tom easily brings some psychodelic and mesmerizing feel to this rather simple song, and here we can see the real proof of that magic he did. He was a master of that transformation - from simple forms to multi-levelled hypnotic message to the audience.
Tom is outstanding here and he looks like he's really enjoying singing this song. I love Tom. Met him in 1981,after having front row seats partied with him and the Heartbreakers. What a great bunch of guy's....
when this came out i was living up north in Michigan had no friends because i did not live there very long & money was hard to come by butt when this came out i had to go all the way to traverse city to get this music witch was a long way away but when i got back home i played it & it just felt soooooo good
I love this band so much! Plus, that hat really suits Tom. :) Sadly, I never saw TPATH in concert...one of my biggest regrets, despite being a fan since "Breakdown". So grateful for these videos. RIP Tom & Howie.
Such an awesome musician, really gets into his music! Great performer! A Sexy Dude indeed. Miss You So Much, my youth lives on through your talented music. I'll never get tired of listening to you Tom. And your family will be releasing so many more of your hidden gems you have created for us🤗 Love You & Thank You
What a crowd of people., they’re really into it. Fun tune. Everybody looks great and sounds great. I know interstate 75, it’s right out side my front door.🦆
This was actually Buffalo, NY. It was simulcast on Farm Aid...Line-up was Grateful Dead, Tom Petty & Heartbreakers, with Bob Dylan to finish up..I know cuz i was there and it was incredible...we drove all night from NE Vermont.
I just love as he went on he would take the story in each concert as he got older. Until it really came up tighter abd funnier which is so friggin hysterical
Yes, an a favorite of mine as well. Tom and The Heartbreakers put forth a song like nobody else. Grabs attention like no other bank I know. They are sorely missed - but thanks for the youtubes Farm Aid!
I remember seeing him ROCKING-Out 2 this 1 @ PG & E Park in Portland,Oregon when my husband & I accompanied a close friend Bill Virgo & his son Daemon at the SWET concert T.P. performed with Bob Dylan in the mid-1980s another Legend!!:
spike was my roomate in gainesville in 1973.....it's a true story. spike was his dog's name. robert was his name. spike (the dog) had a heart attack one day and robert left town. if you asked robert why he wore a dog collar he would answer "bahoooh"
no social media back then. we both hitched out of Gainesville in 1974 and went in opposite directions as i remember. maybe he will read this at some point and say hello. i used to recall his last name but that's faded now.
One of my favourites too although the one on the anthology is my top favourite. So good to see the band performing it though. Tom looking a bit sweaty here. In the pre gig interview he looks a bit speedy....... love you Tom, very sad but playing your music more than ever. X
No one can wear a hat like Tom 🎩❤
agreed.

Well said
OK I can respect your opinion but I’m going to interject this thought too you have you ever been to a CSNY concert ? Nuff said
@@vonvanhoolandt4483 Good point Von. Which nursing home are they playing?
The new Fillmore release confirms this conclusively.
True dat. Saw him live in DC and Stevie Nicks made a surprise appearance for 4 songs. Encores galore. Great show. i miss him like Iknew him.
How can you not love Tom Petty? ❤️
@@crusadercat7158 I’m 36 I like everything I’ve ever heard. I’ll play him sometimes but it’s always better when he just comes on.
TOM PETTY ALWAYS LOVED FOREVER MISSED NEVER FORGOTTEN
Can we talk about Mike Campbell ? Rolls Royce guitarist. And don’t get me started on how good Tom is !! Rip Tom
I'm Scared, Ain't You Boys Scared?
Hey Spike, Tell Us Bout Life.
I have loved this song from the very first time I ever heard it. Petty Rocks!!
where I am it's SKEEERED!!
Not one that gets a lot of exposure, but it's in my top 10 TP songs as well. That groove! Reminds me a bit of Jack from Highway Companion.
"hey..Spike!! yer scarin' my wife!!"
It was a hot day, and he had his leather on, his dog collar... a born story teller! That's what his songs so special: so many stories about this, that, and everything else.
The future ain't what it used to be....he's missed dearly...
RIP Tom. The world won't seem right without you. Thanks for the music...

Zero fucks given by Spike. Love you Heartbreakers!
and a Custom Collar.... too .... byches....
My all time favorite version of the song. I find myself constantly coming back to listen to it.

Fir Reel.
I saw it in person what a show, what a weekend!
@@Stanimal62 Lucky you 💘
He was born to entertain! Every action all the little add ins on his song…..it’s like musical theatre! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This never gets old.
They are SOooo young.
This is a really amazing song.
This was at Rich Stadium in Buffalo - I was there with some school buddies - Grateful Dead opened the show - great July 4th weekend, our first Dylan concert - Petty was bang on awesome!
Rick Showers it wasn't 1986 because Farm Aid was held at Manor Downs,TX on July 4th 1986, I was there ...
It was simulcasted for Farm Aid... 7/4/86 - this show was in Buffalo.. As Rick states.. I was there.
Rick Showers man wish I would have seen him at least once live, too sad I can't anymore... :/
I was there too, my first Dead show, what a show they all put on!
It was def 86. I was there as well, as n buff that is. Simulcast
Tom Petty R.I.P. Musical genius.
One of the greatest song writers EVER!
Been to 3 TP shows and they were all so damned good! What a band behind him too.
Spike and his dog collar. That's so damn cool. We have all known a "Spike"...
Great song and cool hat. Rest In Peace Tom and Howie ❤
Hey Spike Whada you like? NEVER gets old!

@@Debcatawba Indeed.
even Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers love this song!
Tom Petty is my all time favorite singer!! Also the band is so talented!! They complement each other perfectly:-). So many of my generation of singers are gone to soon.
One of the few people that looks really good in a hat. Love it.
Love this! What Joy he brought us...
He was the coolest guy on earth
The coolest GOAT!
Tom easily brings some psychodelic and mesmerizing feel to this rather simple song, and here we can see the real proof of that magic he did. He was a master of that transformation - from simple forms to multi-levelled hypnotic message to the audience.
Love this version! Thanks for the soundtrack to my life, Tom and the Heartbreakers.

Always was the best concert for your money. This song always brought a big smile to my face when they played it! ❤

Doo doo doo doo do do
Stuff just gets better and better
RIP Tom.... I sure miss you.

Oh Howie - damn man, you are missed.
SA spinks felt the same way when I saw him.
Sandy Culbertson and now we will feel that way when we see Tom. Or any of the rest of them for that matter. TPaTH is no more.
Me too, he looks great here,
if I was Spike my worst fear would be meeting some of the old Vietnam vets saying those words, tell me about life! God Bless our vets ...
Such an awesome musician, really gets into his music!
Great performer!
A Sexy Dude indeed. Miss You So Much, my youth lives on through your talented music. I'll never get tired of listening to you Tom. And your family will be releasing so many more of your hidden gems you have created for us🤗
Love You & Thank You

This song still lives up its name. TRUTHFULLY I LIVE ACROSS FROM A SPIKE .👍🍺
Is he a Dog 🐕?.? lol 👻

Tom Petty was at Rich Stadium outside of Buffalo NY on July 4, 1986. I was there and saw him and Bob Dylan open for Grateful Dead!
Geez what a show!
One my #1 fav.
What a performance!
What a fun song
I have always had a soft spot for Tom Petty. His music is so encouraging and moving, full of good energy. He has always been cool and cute 🥰
Best lineup of the HB's ever!!
AWESOME ❤
Tom was in his element on stage, he owned the place ☺️
Yep, every.single.night.
Love it. Farm Aid performance was Awesome! (Something which is needed again.)
Thank you for sharing!!!
RIP TP!
What a crowd of people., they’re really into it. Fun tune. Everybody looks great and sounds great. I know interstate 75, it’s right out side my front door.🦆
Spike.. boy w a dog collar on.. from Florida ;))
“..The future ain’t what it used to be.. Spike what do you like... Spike tell us/me about life.. “

The most notorious hat in the business. And you guys know which video I'm talking about.
My favorite story time song 😎
Hello Charlene... How are you doing?
Luv this song an tha story behind it
This is a awesome concert. ❤❤❤❤ so so much

This is from the July 4, 1986 concert at Rich Stadium in Buffalo, NY.
Rest in peace, dear Tom.❤
You did good tom Petty and the heartbreakers
Tom war soooooooo gut! Wir vermissen ihn!
That solo....holy shit balls.....
One of my all time favorites. So, missed.✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
I remember seeing him ROCKING-Out 2 this 1 @ PG & E Park in Portland,Oregon when my husband & I accompanied a close friend Bill Virgo & his son Daemon at the SWET concert T.P. performed with Bob Dylan in the mid-1980s
another Legend!!:
Bet if we be good, we'll get a ride on it!
If he ain't too mad about the future!
Ikr❤
What a voice 💕💕amazing performance from the most wonderful Tom Petty. ❤️💔
Tom died yesterday
I'm sad
but I will listen to a whole bunch of Tom and I will be happy again!!
HEY Spike you scarin' the wife
This was live Farm aid filmed in Buffalo N.Y. at our stadium, not in Austin, Texas as it says above.
RIP Tom....
The best 👌
spike was my roomate in gainesville in 1973.....it's a true story. spike was his dog's name. robert was his name. spike (the dog) had a heart attack one day and robert left town. if you asked robert why he wore a dog collar he would answer "bahoooh"
Have any idea of Roberts whereabouts now?
no social media back then. we both hitched out of Gainesville in 1974 and went in opposite directions as i remember. maybe he will read this at some point and say hello. i used to recall his last name but that's faded now.
Awesome story, I really was curious.
Boots McGowan I hope Spike’s alright
Great Story Indeed! Tom would like that!
love this!
Hello Patty... How are you doing?
Hey... hey... hey Spike whadda like? Yeah!!! Tell me 'bout life Spike. Dog collar.
Why is 3:10 so magical? "Nothing..." ❤️
One of my favourites too although the one on the anthology is my top favourite. So good to see the band performing it though. Tom looking a bit sweaty here. In the pre gig interview he looks a bit speedy....... love you Tom, very sad but playing your music more than ever. X
Hello Tricia.... How are you doing?
Gonna miss the story tellin…………….
What a day this was, dead, Dylan and Petty. Those were the days
Quel talent !
@ missdarlene 7 RIP Tom Petty ❤ Sincerely Darlene an American girl who has a thing for drummers ❤❤❤
