You typed that response while I was typing mine. Don't worry I read it afterwards. I can't help the timing.

Aren't there any rock stars you hate?

This lambasting of Tom Petty fans for--gosh! daring to speak on a message board devoted to Tom Petty!--is solipsistic. A lot of people hate Stevie Nicks & Fleetwood Mac. A lot of my very own friends & family hate Stevie Nicks & Fleetwood Mac. I'm sure the same is true of everyone. Are you going to work yourself up into a hissy-snit because of it?

we know you can't help things like that, not being a Stevie fan and all...didn't you get the memo about Stevie fans being 85% more effecient in life and message boards than the rest of the population (especially those darn Lindsey fans).

Totally kidding....I'm in a strange (lack of sleepish) mood. Forgive.

Well, instead of having a hissy-snit, we could just fantasize about murdering those people.

To ourselves, of course.

I got the joke.

Who cares. It's just a small handful of die hard Petty fans, who would probably say that about "anybody" that toured with him. I do have to laugh when I hear them say things like "you know that the set is always going to be the same when Stevie's there."

No guff. Us Stevie fans have had the same set list since 1983

The other 85% of the concert is just Tom doing a bunch of songs without Stevie. Stevie doesn't even do any of her own songs on stage! I know Tom's a special guest and all but that's just freakin' ridiculous!

i know, right? and now they're saying she might not even show up to some of the shows - tom's totally taking over her solo tour!!

maybe the flying vagina of death turned on her?

I remember people bitching about Sheryl Crow on this board whenever she popped out on stage at a Stevie concert. It's all the same type of reaction. I don't expect everyone to love Stevie and I certainly don't care what Tom's devoted fans say about her on their fan forums. All I know is when I went to see Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers a couple of weeks ago - the crowd went ape **** for Stevie and so did I. We all had a great time and I wouldn't have gone if Stevie wasn't going to be there.

Well, on one hand, I can see the Petty fans' point. What if it was Stevie's last solo tour, would you want Don Henley there?

Not exactly. Now if Lindsey showed up, that would be different.

Different strokes for different folks, not everyone loves Stevie like some of us.

Hell I even know a woman who has loved Stevie since childhood and just worships her but HATES Lindsey with a fiery passion..I mean HATES him.

Different strokes for different folks indeed

Even the person who said "BEAT IT STEVIE" goes on to explain that he/she thinks Tom might mix up the setlist more if she isn't there - the implication, of course, is that her presence obligates him to play "Stop Draggin My Heart Around," "Insider," and "I Need to Know." And without her, he can replace those with something else.

Also, for every comment saying "I hope she isn't there," there's at least one more saying "I hope she is."

Seriously? Just because you worship the ground she walks on and are of the opinion that her **** doesn't stink, doesn't mean that other people - especially fans of another band - are obligated to agree with you. And there are plenty of people out there who would find you weird for loving Stevie.

And there are many who don't even know who Walter Egan is..or care...
