"High school was the most bitter experience of my life."
- Tom Petty
...that a teenaged Tom Petty got put on probation for stealing hood ornaments?
...that on the 4th of July, 1976, the air conditioning broke down during the recording of "American Girl"?
...that the Heartbreakers once dumped Chinese food all over their luggage?
"Most of my songs are just about girls ... that's a good subject. I certainly don't consider myself a poet, or anything."
