Toast 16,075 Posted October 2, 2017 56 minutes ago, Vinegar Tits said: He was at the age where people do just keel over and die. Not everybody born late 40s early 50s will be on the radar, especially as I don't tend to think of them round then being as old as pushing 70. Put Tom Petty up with Robert Palmer and Gary Moore as one no one saw coming. RIP. I now wish I'd gone to the Hyde Park gig. Bah. Agreed, but I totally did see Robert Palmer as a walking heart attack. If I'd been deadpooling then, he'd have been first on my list. Just goes to show, you never know when the last chance will be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zsa Zsa's leg 880 Posted October 2, 2017 So it seems some sources aren't getting the memo that he's dead? Or is he really still alive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handrejka 1,903 Posted October 2, 2017 At what point is it okay to admit I'd never heard of him until now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Russ 7,210 Posted October 2, 2017 Well, his death reportedly was confirmed by the LAPD, but TMZ and other sources are saying he's still alive, and the LAPD themselves confirmed he's still alive and are not part of his investigation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, his circulation could be sustained by machines until someone (like a close relative) takes a decision that he shouldn't be kept alive in a vegetative state. (Cardiac arrest means that "clinical death" had occured at some point, after which he was "brought back to life", but presumably he had already suffered brain damage due to hypoxia.)

Oh, I agree, but there'd been little in the way of reported ill health beforehand. His death came out of the blue, unlike for example Prince. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chiesa52 132 Posted October 3, 2017 ....And here is a report from the New York Times, which says that CBS erroneously reported his death but it is not true at this point- now CBS has backed off from that: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/02/business/media/tom-petty-cardiac-arrest.html This is all so bizarre!

Life Is Beautiful 716 Posted October 3, 2017 Well now we already have our biggest death of October EDIT: I've been on a Tom Petty songs loop for almost two hours now, strange how all my favorite artists are now dying one after the other... EDIT 2: STILL ALIVE...which proves once again that a huge part of the problem is media focusing on being ‘first’ instead of ‘fact’ I'm not sure if Tom Petty is alive or not but journalism sure is!
