RIPs

[DrRocka]

Gutted to hear about Tom Petty. The legends are going now, and there's no-one breaking through to replace 'em.

What about Harry Styles?

Harry Styles isn't going to keep the cable cars running in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.  Zayne, maybe.

It's probably a grave sin that I prefer his Traveling Wilburys contributions to almost everything else, but no doubt that he was the real deal.  RIP, Tom. 

[SIP]

Also desperately sad to hear about Tom Petty. Got me through many a dismal accountancy exam. Rip.

[Something Fishy]

Very sad indeed.  I loved his stuff back during my college days.  I'm another who loved the Wilbury stuff in particular but loads of it was great.

[The Enigmatic Dr X]

Love me a bit of Tom Petty. I thought he was a lot older, but maybe that's because I am.

Comedian Sean Hughes (51) ...

Blimey. Sad news.

[Colin YNWA]

Yeah very sad to hear about the passing of Sean Hughes at only 51. Very funny and from all reports I've heard, pleasent man.

[Rara Avis]

Was he ill? It seems so sudden and he was so young.

[von Boom]

Shocking and sad about Sean Hughes.

Was he ill? It seems so sudden and he was so young.

His last tweet, sent on 8 October, simply reads:

In hospital.
