    I've been reading Warren Zane's excellent Tom Petty Biography, Petty, and kind of following it by watching chapters from the DVD, "Runnin' Down a Dream", so this week my list kind of feels like:

    Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
    Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

    My favorite band = Pearl Jam
    The band I feel most loyal toward = Pearl Jam 
    The band that I've been a fan of for the longest time = Motley Crue

    These were more difficult...trying to separate the musician from the band.
    Favorite Musician = Chris Cornell
    Most Loyal Toward (musician) = Chris Cornell
    Longest Time fan of (musician) = Ozzy

    Also tough to leave FNM & Mike Patton from this, but Pearl Jam and Cornell finish forward, at this point in time.  Crue and Ozzy win out from the metal youth days.  :)
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    A friend of mine turned me on to Petty by playing me Damn the Torpedoes.  It had just come out, I'd not heard of Petty before that and right off that bat, that first listen, I knew I was going to love this guys work.

    I was driving home last night in the rain listening to my TP greatest hits CD and "Even the Losers" starts playing and I'm thinking about something I read in the biography and next thing I know I'm tearing up and thinking, "Oh man, gone way too soon", wiping tears away and trying to drive.   :-(

    I'm so glad I got to see Petty and the Heartbreakers with Bob Dylan.  What a fine show!

    I never cared for Ozzy solo and could never get into Patton either.  What is something I should check out from Patton that I might enjoy?  No Mr Bungle or FNM, something in the last 10 years or so.

    Faith No More get all three nods from me...

    I've liked them since I first heard The Real Thing in junior high, they've never released anything I didn't love, they really can't do much wrong in my book.

    @tempo_n_groove - they're more than 10 years old, but the 1st two Tomahawk albums are fantastic, and way more than just solo Patton projects. John Stanier has become one of my favorite drummers after listening to that band, and Duane Dennison writes some pretty interesting stuff. Their last release Oddfellows from 2013 has some good stuff as well, but still isn't as good as either of the first two.

    I forgot how heavy it was until I saw them again at the Paradise in 2013. The crowd went apeshit during Mayday & The Bird Song.

    I love that band.

    Edit: Capt. Midnight, Rape This Day & When the Stars Begin to Fall are incredible too... what a great f'ing album.

    You did not like solo Ozzy?
    Blizzard?
    Diary?
    Sin?
    Bark?
    Tears?
    Wicked?
    TRIBUTE?

    Albums so badass they only get one word references from me?
    :lol:

    Sabbath was better, of course, but damn did I love Ozzy for a lot of years.
