Tonight’s mystery artist during an interview gave the interviewer 10 things he hates. I’ll give you the list and we’ll see it you can guess who he is. Bonus track on greatest hits albums, DJ Based music, MP3s and streaming music,  Modern Country music, TV singing competitions, traveling, several of his own albums, the catholic church, reality TV and alcohol and drugs. Any guesses??

This list comes from a Ultimate Classic Rock post about Tom Petty where he assures us all he isn’t as angry as everyone thinks. As for the list of the 10 things he hates here are the abbreviated whys...

  1. He thinks bonus tracks that aren’t hits have no reason to be included in "Greatest Hits" (makes sense)
  2. DJs,  he prefers everyone learn to make their own sound, (he has never heard me play)
  3. He doesn’t like the sound quality of MP3s, (Fair enough)
  4. Tom says modern country sounds too generic (Yup),
  5. He remembers back in the day they laughed at TV singing competitions (I remember that)
  6. In reference to his albums , some of them were due and some he wasn’t going through a good time in his life,(OK)
  7. The Catholics is really the church not the attendees,  he is still angry about the abused children,(me too)
  8. Tom calls Reality TV stars disposable famous (Sounds about right)
  9. From the sounds of the interview he is just plain tired of traveling (not the first rocker to say that gets old)
  10. As for substances he doesn’t like the taste or buzz and can’t stand to be around drunks. However, to Petty reefer and cigarettes don’t seem to count (good to know)
