"I once read that Elvis Presley survived to play in Vegas, not only because he had a great marketing manager, but also because he could feel out an audience and give them exactly what they wanted at any given moment." said Tom Petty, famously known for his hit songs, Free Falling and American Girl . Petty has had a career now spanning four decades. Most recently playing at the half time show for the NFL Super Bowl, NY Giants vs. New England Patriots. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers are currently touring the USA with most shows already sold out.

As a boy, Petty got to meet Elvis on the set of Follow That Dream, filmed near where Petty lived as a kid.
Getlo - cute'n'cuddly
He used to do a great cover of Rip it Up with one of his first bands back in 1970, canīt remember their name.
Anyway, a great marketing manager during the 70's? yeah sure, whatever.
