Elvis Presley inspired tom petty. his uncle was hired to be on the set of one of Elvis' movies that was being filmed in Gainesville. Petty's uncle invited him on the set and petty was amazed and ever since then wanted to be a rock and roll rebel. he traded his sling shot for a friends collection of Elvis records and that was it.
