Sad to see everyone resorting to puns here at such sad news. It’s beneath the forum, very Petty.

John Kelly played a little bit of Tom just before the end of the programme.

I always found Tom Petty a bit bland I must say.

One of the greatest Super Bowl shows of all time.

66 is no age.

I’d tend to agree with you.

RIP Tom

In one of the best Suoerbowls too.

That’s shite about Tom Petty. I always associate “I Won’t Back Down” with the 1994 World Cup when RTE used it for montages of the Eire team before the matches which led straight into George Hamilton’s commentaries, and ultimately the jinxed Jimmy Magee one against Holland.
