I called Pat the other day just to check in and chat.   Pat is a very enthusiastic “fan” of the BOSTON books, and if you have read Vol 1 and/or Vol 2 of Baked Beans, you know that Pat has shared lots of great stories with us.

As we chatted and caught up a little, he told me that he had done a couple of songs at an annual show where he lives.   Turns out, someone (he thinks it might have been his son-in-law) took a video clip of it and posted it on youtube.   The camera work will not win any Oscars (it’s a little shaky in one or two places)   –   but I urge you to ignore all that and listen in on Pat’s performance . . . .
