Rock Battle #1 Tom Petty vs. Rick Ocasek

The first in an ongoing series of Rock Battles. I will select the winner based on various nebulous and unnamed criteria. In addition, those criteria will change with every battle.

Round 1

Rick Ocasek of the Cars

vs.

Tom Petty of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and The Traveling Wilburys

While Rick Ocasek is married to a rather attractive lady:

At the end of the day, Tom Petty clearly rocks harder. Also, Rick Ocasek did have a couple of odd music videos but Tom Petty holds the record for most weird videos in the world.

Congrats Tom. We will see you in round 2.

Next Rock Battle: Keith Richards vs. Keith Moon
