While it might not be EDM, the music world has had a rough day in America. While the reality of the Las Vegas attack is still coming into view, we’re learning that the world of Rock Music is experiencing a tragedy today as well.
TMZ is reporting that legendary rocker Tom Petty was found unconscious in cardiac arrest and not breathing in his Malibu home. He was then taken to UCLA Santa Monica where he was found to have no brain activity. Reports indicate that he was taken off life support and now he has died.
