My personal? Its always changing.

Critic? Heres a recent one although IMHO a tad too many hit singles and Free Fallin' is technically a Petty solo song. If you look at it the guy actually does 100 songs in total over a couple weeks.

... I had to.
 
Its not up on youtube afaik but heres the download. About 8 megabytes, about 1 minute long:

Its from a 1987 episode of the Garry Shandling Show. This was in an article:
...an oddball, late ‘80s Showtime series that had Petty playing Shandling’s neighbor in California. “It’s Garry Shandling’s Show” was an experimental comedy that broke the fourth wall and, in a few episodes, proved Petty could be funny. REALLY funny.

To this day, Petty’s contorted grimace as Doc Severson delivered Nancy the neighbor’s baby remains a classic television bit that still keeps the Internet abuzz.

“I remember I improvised that,” Petty recalls. “It wasn’t on the page. I just kind of threw it in, and they liked it.”

OK. Am I the only one who thinks this is.... weird and strange and stuff. (Except Tom. He said in the Beach Party doc that he found it "very strange")

No. The closest hes come to me was Toronto. He was in Boston but I don't have a passport. :(
 
Aimee, you have an unhealthy obsession with Tom Petty. You make a thread every other week about him and bring him up on every other thread. In fact, I haven't seen you make a single comment about something other than Petty. He's just a rock star. Get over it and live your own life! You won't get anywhere singing the praises of Tom Petty if that's all you do.
 
Well, yeah.

Then you've not read many of my posts, eh?

No, I haven't read many of your posts. Only a dozen or two. From there I concluded, reasonably, that you are alarmingly obsessed with Petty, 90% of your posts being about him, and that you spam this forum with "1000 reasons why Petty is better than everything". My statement about making no posts apart from Petty was hyperbole (obviously) based on fact.

90%? FWIW, I really only post about him in A&E these days. So if you stuck to A&E obviously you're gonna get that impression.

EDIT: Either way, this thread, does not titled "CRITICIZE A PETTYOLOGIST."
 
Do you listen to anything other than Tom Petty or things Tom Petty was involved in (i.e. Traveling Wilburys).
 
Yes. But don't ask me to provide a list. This is for Petty questions. Just look at my username.
 
Not a lot of physical stuff. I dont have the money or space for it. FWIW, I have a picture of everything (sans my Wilburys box set, which I had put away at the moment, and the new copy of Conversations I got after this pic was taken):

The most interesting things are the records and the PAL VHS of A Bunch Of Videos. As well I have three (!) CDs of "She's The One" and two of "Full Moon Fever."
 
I actually have a message board. I started it on July 31st and now it just hit about 7000 posts (I have less than half that). But you wouldn't be able to google it.
