If you want to listen to something in the vein of the "sellouts"
conversation, go to www.tompetty.com
A song should play for you automatically (its a shockwave file).
If I didn't know better, I'd have thought it was Neil Young! I've always
wondered why Petty's work was not more overtly social and political when
the man himself is a tireless supporter and performer of antinuclear and
environmental and social justice causes. Sounds like that is changing.
I tabled Tom Petty concerts for Greenpeace in the mid '90s and had
backstage access that I was working too hard to enjoy ... except that his
people came out to the table and invited us to come have something to eat
before the show!
