(18 posts)Re: Petty, This was pretty much a given, I think. Have to say, though "One of us" sounds like freaks or some sort of weird minority, doesn't it? I don't think liberal or progressive free-thinkers are that rare.

(4,879 posts)We always called him "Sweaty Petty", because he made us sweat.
I am saving this to listen to later when I can relax and enjoy.
Thank you for posting.

saw him last September live in concert. I was sitting down (because you don't want to get dizzy when you're a rockin' senior citizen ) and waving my arms and headbanging and singing along!!!
"She's a woman in loooooove...."
"Livin' like a refugeeeee"
"And I won't...back down, and I'll stand...my ground" "Heyyyy babyyy, there ain't no easy way out"
I told the guy next to me, "He needs to bring out Stevie Nicks and do 'Stop Draggin' My Heart Around'. That did not happen.
