Met Patrick on my last day at Floyd Fest. I didn't have a chance to take advantage of his services at the fest, but man... after sleeping on the ground for 6 days, I sure wish I could have!! He seems like a really nice, mellow guy who loves his work. If you're in the Roanoke area, be sure to look him up!
