Poll question: Your thoughts on Tom Petty

[Tommy_Carcetti]

1. Great singer/song writer....

...not the best of all time, but great nonetheless.

For whatever reason, I've found he makes good songs for roadtrips.

4. +10000 on the "makes good songs for roadtrips"

I have one of his latest CDs in my car and it's excellent for cruising on the highway.

2. Very good, not great, but probably still a lock for the Hall of Fame

[mulsh]

3. has he stopped using "babe" as a puctuation mark in his songs?

I've seen TP & The Heartbreakers over the years since they first got out of Florida and really like their shows.

5. I served his ass once...

When he stayed at our hotel I brought him breakfast. He was laying naked in the bed with his ass sticking out. It was kinda funny.

[charlie and algernon]

6. LOL, that is funny

did he acknowledge you at all? Or even bother covering up? :rofl:

[WillParkinson]

9. Nope. I think he was actually sleeping.

Butt who can say for sure?

[Shell Beau]

7. I love Tom Petty!

[Iggo]

8. Loved him in The Postman.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

11. When someone says there was nothing good about "The Postman"...

...you can always note that Tom Petty was in it, and, well, that was kind of cool.

[Iggo]

17. Nothing good? Nothing...? Wha...?

That movie should be worshipped on a par with Road House!

The Rules Of Eight! Come on!

[charlie and algernon]

15. well for sure I'll be blasting Highway Companion in the car on the way home

[nuxvomica]

13. A really good musician and an awesome voice actor

I liked the Traveling Wilburys and his Lucky character on King of the Hill.

16. I've seen him 10 times and have a tattoo based on an image from one of his albums.

So... yeah, I am a fan.

[abq e streeter]

18. good but not great

Doesn't mean I don't like him; far from it, just not "great". ( and has written some great songs here and there)

[hippywife]

19. Other: Meh. n/t

[Patiod]

20. made me wish I still smoked dope

haven't smoked since college, and went to a Tom Petty concert a few years back, really, really wishing I still got high. I was bored out of my mind, which was the usual impetus for getting high (especially in high school).

Although I do love "Don't Back Down".

à chacun son goût, I guess.
