Who the hell am I?
Hi! My name is Patrick Zampetti...I was born in Rhode Island back in...you know...the day. I've spent most of my life teaching myself how to play drums, bass guitar, acoustic and electric guitar, piano, and how to write music. I am about to to begin my fifth year victory lap studying Creative Advertising at Virginia Commonwealth University. I'm an avid concert goer and performer. I'm inherently sarcastic almost all of the time. I have a dismal sense of humor which proves to be quite useful in hours upon hours of brainstorming sessions. Occasionally I play bass or drum-set for the nationally touring Dave Matthews Tribute Band but I also play music around Richmond at venues like The Camel, Strange Matter, City Dogs, The Canal Club, Emilios, Rock Bottom Brewery, Bar Louie, Keagan's Grill, Strangeways Brewing, Ardent Brewing, Metro Bar and Grill, McCormack's Grill, and Beach House. Nothing makes me feel complete like the sound of an acoustic guitar...or was it Whiskey?
How many concerts? Well... a lot...
