I hate Tom Petty’s music. Whiney arse voice. It’s not even a real tradition for Florida.

As a Gator and a music fan, I soured on Petty after seeing the androgynous tranny looking fella in one of his music videos.
Tom Petty couldn’t help the way he looked.
But instead of playing the victim he honed his craft and became a Rock and Roll legend.

Sknyrd at Gators games like how I blast that song out my car windows on gamedays, haha. Those boys from Westside Jacksonville weren't far from Gainesville.
Much better representation of North Florida folks as well.

Years ago someone said that Tom Petty was Bob Dylan for redneck stoners.
Tom's music is pretty basic but not bad. There are way worse "basic music" songwriter/guitars who are way worse. Steve Miller would be one of those.

This is straight blasphemy. You going after Bob Dylon next?

A lot of his music really doesn’t hold up when you listen to it today. Very mediocre recording artist.
Not my style of music but I can appreciate the songwriting skills.
Since you think Tom Petty sucks, you now have to post what musicians you believe do not suck.

He isn't at the level
Pink Floyd
Led Zepp
The Beatles
Eric Clapton
etc
but I consider him on the next level.

Agree with that. I put him up there with Neil Young, Crosby, Stills and Nash. Very good artists. Just not the apex of some of the others you mentioned. For me personally growing up in the 1980’s and 1990’s, I’m more of a Soundgarden, NIN, Nirvana, STP, Pearl Jam listener but I enjoy classic rock from the 1960’s and 1970’s also

Same..I love grunge and whatever Tool is considered..Maynard ranges so much from angry to thoughtful. Hard to place.

I’ve had to play Last Dance With Mary Jane about 80,000 times. I don’t know how many more times I can get through it without just absolutely losing my sh!t.
