In a Tom Petty related item, Dave Grohl, former Nirvana drummer and current Foo Fighters frontman was offered the drumming job in Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers by Tom Petty himself after Nirvana ended. Grohl politely turned him down so he could concentrate on fronting his own band the Foo Fighters. I will try and find the article on this later tonight or in the morning......

Yeah, I knew he had a King of the Hill character...Lucky. He's funny.

That would've been cool, Dave Grohl drumming for Tom Petty.

Probably Learning to Fly if I had to pick one, with his holiday signature "Christmas All Over Again" a close second.
