Grammy Awards: TOM PETTY Tribute

With two musicians who I thought were perfect to do the honors, Emmylou Harris and Chris Stapleton, I thought this was an appropriate open to the Grammy’s “In Memoriam” segment…

With two musicians who I thought were perfect to do the honors, Emmylou Harris and Chris Stapleton, I thought this was an appropriate open to the Grammy's "In Memoriam" segment last night. Wow. Watching that screen of rolling faces no longer with us....we lost a ton of great talent last year. And how much did it suck to see Tom Petty's face in that crowd? A lot. I still can't believe he's gone.
