I was the youngest in my family, my older brother being 12 years older than me really introduced me to music at a very early age. He was already into Dylan, Neil Young, Tom Petty etc when I was literally a tot in kindergarten. My love of music started so early and Tom was going to be my first concert, my brother was going to take me to see him during the Hard Promises tour in 1981, I was only 11..... but then a girl got in the way and guess who ended up going. I got over the loss of missing that tour but never got over my love of Tom Petty and we did end up going to see him four other times over the years.

This one really hurts, its unreal to think if never seeing him again.

I can't help but post this, one of my all time favourites. I will never understand how this received ZERO airplay and wasn't a huge hit for him. It went relatively unnoticed and I was even surprised to find a live version of it on youtube. So, thank you Tom, thank you for everything, and "wherever you are tonight, I wish you the best of everything, in the world and I hope you found, whatever you were looking for"
