girlfriend, Coie. He soon discovered Lucky Charms, which became his
favorite breakfast cereal. He used to play drums as a kid and, after his
fortieth birthday, started thinking about taking them up again. One
morning at breakfast he discovered a drum-kit in his Lucky Charms box and
has been playing them ever since.
Patrick used to work with Steve at Varco and had jammed with him, Scott,
Russ and Vern in the past. After Russ's passing, Steve decided to give
Patrick a chance to play with the band. It has worked out well and Patrick
really enjoys playing with Alder Eagle and dancing with the Eaglettes when
he's allowed.
Patrick has aspirations to become a real musician and has started guitar
lessons. He also messes around with a keyboard now and then and is getting
amazingly good at playing 'Chopsticks.'
