I was never a huge Heartbreakers fan, but I do respect the hell out of his talent, and songwriting ability. Love me some traveling wilburys though.

one of the good ones

Another great musician is gone from us but his music lives on. RIP.

Saw him at Riverbend the summer I went off to college, and again at Red Rocks the year I moved away from Colorado. If I had to pick one person to write my soundtrack, it would have been Petty. RIP old friend.

he was later transferred to a better hospital, where his condition was upgraded to "alive"

Love petty. Hits big hits are mostly great but so is his other stuff. You get greasy 5 songs all the way through on multiple albums.

Very sad...

Did he have a history? I really didn't think of Petty as "heart attack on a plate".

Only 2 living Wilburys left.

Sorry for the erroneous report - I just took it from CBS.

No apologies necessary. CBS/LAPD effed that one up. I hope he can pull through if that is the actual case.
