I think he played in Nirvana live on the last tour.
Yes they needed a second guitar for In Utero and Pat was already quite accomplished from his work in the Germs.
Kurt found Pat in the SST Superstore. It's not like they ran into each other while they were shopping; Pat was working the counter. Because that's what you did when you were between gigs. Sometimes it'd be a few weeks, sometimes it'd be a few years, but you still got to be around music and you still got to network with people.
He also played for The Germs.
He's on stage for the Unplugged performance, which was one of the last shows.
Holy shit. Didnt realize he was in the Germs. He must think Foo Fighters is mellow and square compared to dealing with Darby Crash
When Grohl was looking for a guitarist and pats name come up , he was like, the fuck? He’s still alive?!
They worked together in Nirvana, why would Dave think he was dead?
"Is THAT who the guy onstage with us at Unplugged and on the entire last tour was...?"
Edit.. when Nirvana were looking for for a guitarist
I'm not understanding this title...
Dave Grohl wrote in a book that Prince told a bodyguard to tell Pat to leave because he can't dance but the bodyguard instead told Pat that he can stay because Prince likes his hair??
I think the director sent Pat home and Prince told his bodyguard to tell Pat he could stay.
The animated sections of this video are so much more interesting than the dance numbers.
Around The World In A Day is one of his best albums.
Everybody always talks about how Johnny Cash took Hurt and made it his song, nobody ever talks about how Warren Zevon made Raspberry Beret his own.
...The Werewolves of London guy covered a Prince classic? Huh, good for him, I guess.
It wasn’t just Zevon. It was REM, with Zevon instead of Michael Stipe. Called themselves Hindu Love Gods. The album is all covers, mostly blues.
>The Werewolves of London guy
Oof
I love Warren Zevon, and I like his cover of Raspberry Beret enough, but the original is unassailable.
Has cover if Knocking on Heaven's Door is especially great considering he was literally on this death bed while recording it
Ah, but did you know that Trent Reznor appears for about thirty seconds in the film Light of Day as part of a post-New Wave pre-Industrial pop trio?
Lame
Germs, yeah, that’s how the world knows him.
I always thought he should have named himself Pap.... or Papi Smear
Well, that’s the joke.
kind of
