Tom Petty tells a story in a Heartbreakers documentary that gives a glimpse of his analog mindset, the mindset of someone who refuses to settle. Petty was on the bill for The No Nukes Show, and the last three acts were Jackson Browne, Tom Petty, and Bruce Springsteen at the height of his fame. Petty says that Browne came off stage, and told him: “If you go on, and you think they’re booing you, don’t get thrown because they’re really just saying: ‘BRUCE!’” And Petty replied: “What’s the difference?”

Thanks for that chuckle, that’s a good way to start the day
Hahahahaha. Seriously. Screaming you want to see the next guy while someone is performing is so obnoxious. I'm sure Bruce hated it. Only dicks along for the hits would do that.
Good one. Man, I vividly recall watching that show for the 1st time. The talent they garnered for that event was unbelievable.
That's very funny...
Brilliant!
