Not Tom's Last Interview

In response to the quote in the recent Rolling Stone article... "this is it for me ... this is the last interview I'm doing for a long time." I feel Neil Strauss might have misunderstood me by "this is it." I meant it was the last of a long string of interviews I had been doing over the past month to promote Highway Companion and "for a long time" I meant for the length of the tour I was going on in a few days. It was just an aside. I should have explained myself in more detail - I certainly intend to speak with media in the future, especially concerning my new CD Highway Companion.
Sorry for the confusion folks.
Peace - Tom Petty
