Full Moon Fever!

As if yesterday couldn't suck more, we had to go and lose Tom Petty, too? Jeez, universe. You're really outdoing yourself, and not in a good way.

Today's song is a tribute to Tom, from his classic 1989 album Full Moon Fever. Of the slew of hits from it, many are still classic rock radio mainstays, like "Runnin' Down a Dream," "Free Fallin," and "I Won't Back Down." Our song doesn't get as much airplay as some of the others from that album, but it is just as rockin' and has the added benefit of being about dancing at a Zombie Zoo! 

I'm pretty sure I know the girl with the white lipstick and lunch pail purse who is the subject of "Zombie Zoo," and maybe even was her for a few years. (Still have the lunch pail purse.) Just one thing, though--shaving off your hair and looking like Boris Karloff is a bad thing??



Rest in peace, Tom. Gotta admit, I always loved you best as Lucky on King of the Hill.
