Hi Pat, What made you choose Trace Elliot amps instead of for example an Ampeg SVT classic and are the Lakland basses you use active or passive? [submitted by: Bram (Holland)]

PD: All right Bram, you've got two questions. Firstly, I chose Trace Elliot cabs because they seem not to color the sound of the amp. More so......they look cool right? Second, all the Laklands I use are not ACTIVE. They are passive....i.e. No batteries.

What kind of effect did you use in Lakini's juice? [submitted by: Bram (Holland)]

PD: I used a Trace Elliot V Type head that had loads of overdrive happening. We mixed in a line with an MXR Overdrive and a direct signal plus our mixer Tom Lord Alge, threw his own distortion into the mix.

I want to ask Pat about a really weird thing that happened in Poland recently. There is a group/band called "18L" and they now have a song "Jak Zapomniec" with music from "Overcome", and what is more - 18L is a hiphop group!! Is it legal that they used "Overcome" to make their own song?? Does Ed and the rest know about this?? [submitted by: Acia (Poland)]

PD: Shiznit.....I'll call my lawyers! [Steph's note: Pat's sarcasm is alive and well! LOL]

Did you ever encounter stage fright or nervousness when playing with others? If so, how did you overcome it? [submitted by: Me]

PD: I try and let my fingers take over if I'm feeling nervous when I'm playing. Hear the groove and go with it!
