Since Tom Petty's death in October at the age of 66, his band The Heartbreakers tells Closer Weekly they have been too heartbroken to consider making music together again.
“We’re all in such shock and grief, we’re not really thinking about [performing],” drummer Steve Ferrone reveals to Closer.
Steve adds that he cherishes “every single” memory of the 25 years he spent with Tom and they are just "not there yet” when it comes to performing.
