Punk

Dangerously funny, sweaty, beer-soaked punk power-pop from Chicago. Their live shows have been referred to by the press, club owners, Chicago law enforcement and some local magistrates as "a huge frat party with little or no regard for personal and public safety." "Genral Patton delivers a propulsive kick!" - Jim DeRogatis, Chicago Sun Times. "Absolutely the hardest working band in Chicago" - The Loafers, Chicago punk band. "Hard pop with a sense of place and a chaser!" Tim Pacey, ChicagoMusicScene.com "Wit and participatory affection..." Monica Kendricks, Chicago Reader. Judge for yourself!
Band/artist history
Genral Patton is... Jim "Genral" Patton: Lead Guitar, Lead Vocals Billy Pfrommer: Guitar, Keyboards, Vocals Adam Rebelius: Bass Guitar Wendy Mecca: Drums
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We perform all over Chicago, as often and as many different venues as possible. We love live shows. Too many "special moments" to site here, but our shows have been raided by the police for safety violations, noise ordinances, under age drinking, we've been banned from several venues for club damage resulting from our fans, members of the band have been arrested for disorderly conduct, breaking out a state trooper's car windows while trying to escape, drunk driving, buying beer for minors, we have passed out, puked and pissed on most of the finer establishments in Chicago, and terrorized all-night restaurant owners at 4 a.m.
Your musical influences
Anybody who rocks...Ramones, Iggy Pop, AC/DC, Jeff Beck, The Melvins, Marilyn Manson, NIN, Big Head Todd, John Hiatt...too many.
What equipment do you use?
Cranking stacks, Gibson SG guitars, and a bunch of stuff.
Anything else?
Hey....book us on your next tour if you need a good support band or let us know when you hit Chicago, and we'll hook you up.
