Pat used to come to my rehab and speak in Tucson. Really cool guy. Had no clue his music was so amazing until awhile after

[@christopherdoroba8724]

Its sad hearing him say "I cant imagine not writing songs" after his announcement 2 weeks ago of his retirement. Thanks for the music Pat, thanks for the message, thanks for helping me get off heroin through your music. I know you said that you dont believe you can have that effect, but at least for me you did. I dont wake up sick anymore and I am not saying your music is responsible for that but it helped through some rough times. I am writing this as if he will see it eventually. I've been a pat fan since I was 16 and first heard Johnny hobo. Then we hung out when you played a show at my house on my birthday (we are the same age) since that night I have seen you at pretty much every NYC/NJ/PA show ...hell even in Maine that one time lol, any way I'm rambling. Thanks again. Saddest words I every read were "Pat (no bunny, at last)"

+Christopher Doroba that was beautiful man he is my favorite artist and when i saw that i wished him luck but man it sucks all his new stuff was so good and the hardest thing i have ever read as well was the pat (no bunny, at last) i only saw him once before i ever loved the music i have not had the chance to see him because right as he played a show in my state i moved and never got to see him when i was in love with the music.

[@billie_skreamz]

I don't know if you follow "we are all compost in training" zines but one of the guys from DIY Bandits said that Pat never stopped making music, we'll probably hear from him again whether or not he comes back

[@KingandQueenoftheLosers]

I disagree with what Pat said here about him "saving peoples lives." While agree with a lot of what he has to say, I think that he just doesn't understand the impact he has. It may be a case of him not knowing how to internalize these emotions, which he even states. Having a "role model" in the punk scene when it comes to sobriety is a huge thing. In a scene that has always been about drugs and partying, Pat rebelled against that and gave kids who were in the same situation hope. His impact may be small, but to pretend there was no impact is just wrong. Books, documentaries, and songs, absolutely do change the world, and change how people think. It isn't Pat changing the entire world himself, but he is rather one piece in a very large puzzle. Listening to the Beatles made me understand that world peace is attainable if we just work together. Punk rock music enlightened me about many political ideas, and shaped my worldview in a significant way. Just in the same way that Pat's music has helped me see the light on the other side of drug addiction. It was an example of someone else who had his friends die, who had his entire life thrown away to drugs, and he came out on the other side. If people are saying that "Pat saved their life," they are correct. If his music was the catalyst for you, then who is he to say that is wrong? I think that Pat is rather honest and humble here, but I just don't think he is correct.

[@micocepssillycibin3209]

I think you didn't get his point. He didn't want to claim any responsibility for the changes that his music may have caused in other people's lives because he actually believes that each individual is entirely responsible for the changes or decisions they make with their own life. Meaning that it doesn't really matter if this band or that book changed your life or affected you in this or that way because in reality, it's you who identify with this band or that book because you recognize in it aspects of your own self. And if you decide do act differently based on those aspects of yourself that you recognize in others or other things, the responsibility for those changes are exclusively yours. He said at the end of that question: "I think that whatever gets shifted is already within myself (within you)"

[@coreymateja3656]

Dude you waaayyy over thought that comment. Sit back, chill out, and take everything with a grain of salt. I'm sure he has people say your music has changed my life it doesn't need speculation.

[@felixflax19]

I was obsessed with Taylor Swift from when I was 9 through when I was 14 when I was also listening to My Chemical Romance & Mayday Parade and while I don’t like her new music anymore and am obsessed with Pat’s music, I don’t think I’d still listen to music regularly if I hadn’t had that Taylor. Swift phase in elementary and middle school so damn I love having that in common with my favorite musician.

[@mitchtucker]

@@felixflax19 love that dude! Keep on rockin in the free world

[@lanadelriki5892]

Taylor Swift is actually a really good artist if you are able to appreciate all types of music, her journey from Country, to country pop, to sraight pop, to trap, to now more indie-folk pop is pretty impressive. I know shes insanely big but musically shes impressive just for being able to go through so many genres. Check out folklork its a great album and much much more mature than her older stuff (which i love too) Listen to "The last great American dynasty" such a great song

[@CelesteLovesEminem]

I saw pat in 2014 at El Corazon in Seattle and the crowd started getting really rowdy. I was in front with two other ladies and the crowd was pushing us into him on stage and i really believe he saw how uncomfortable we were and he stopped playing, and politely asked the crowd to relax because he's not playing music to mosh to. I though that was pretty fucking cool. Love you pat

[@agyratingmonkey]

Imagining who he'd be playing with makes this melancholic

[@potenviking]

At 15:12 Pat was able to explain so simply the idea of Kantian philosophy and its more recent extension of hermeneutics - the origin of knowledge is within the person himself and no one can change your life, they can only inspire you to change your own life. I find this quite true when we argue with other people or try to dominate what they think - if they are already believing something else, they would gradually be more interested in what "proves" their own point and the only thing you can do is offer them a different point that they may or may not resonate with. A little bit of unnecessary fascination, yet I find this guy to be as authentic as a person can be. You are an inspiration my friend!

[@dariankierstead1917]

I so so so so wish I could tell Pat how much his music helped me throughout the last 10 years. I know he doesn't like to take credit for stuff like that, but that being said, it was just really nice to have music I related to, that made me feel less alone. If you happen to read this at all Pat, thanks so much! and thank you for getting sober and taking care of yourself!!!

[@mustardtoast8328]

I love the last part of the interview where they go deep in politics and philosophy. Pat's music was what prompted me to get interested in anarchism and radical politics, seeing him talk about these things outside of song lyrics and in a more in-depth way is truly inspiring to me. It's just a shame that there aren't any other video interviews of him, you have to do with what you got I guess. And who knows? Maybe one day he'll come back and will be able to hear what he'll think of the world then but until that, all that I can do is sit back and enjoy the content that this man put out before he retired. If you're still reading this (or if you found yourself at the end of this comment for some reason) I sincerely hope you have a good day, and if you don't, there's always tomorrow.

I love this guy, so sad he’s retired, Pat if you’re reading this, go on Chapo! And it may not be worth anything at all, but you’ve got my best wishes and my love :)

[@logantorrence3906]

Pat is a great guy, in all honesty. However, these guys RREAALLLYYY need to work on their interview skills..

[@drewblood]

It felt like a conversation. I enjoyed hearing things I'd never hear other interviewers ask him about. I want to play D&D with Pat now.

[@constantly-confused5736]

@@drewblood Actually, I really liked that about this interview. It was an authentic conversation that naturally went to places other interviews would never reach. Also: I'm a huge philosophy-nerd, so I especially liked the last part of the interview.

Is there a way we can email pat now that he's retired? Was there any way that we could have emailed before he was retired?
