I remember this like it was yesterday. I was 15y.o. He did a drum clinic in my country. After the clinic there was an autograph signing. I brought all my Mr. Big albums which were all cassettes. However, the organizer said he can only sign 2 items per person. After Pat signed 2 of my items the organizer was pushing us away and I told Pat that I have always been a fan ever since I was a little boy. And he said these exact words 'If you can wait, I will finish up all these people in line then I will sign all of yours'. I waited but the organizer pushed us away and out the door. As Pat finished, I was out the door but was able to yell loud enough for him to hear me. I yelled 'Hey Pat, I waited as you told me' He called me back in and took me with him to his dressing room and signed all my Mr. Big memorabilla. There was a funny moment when I brought out all my cassettes and a VHS tape of their Live in San Francisco concert. Pat's reaction was 'Oh my God, where did you get all these cassettes? You dont seem to be old enough to have all these'. He did sign all of them. He was larger than life. He was a rockstar but never acted like one. He was so down to earth. These are the types of memories that artists should leave to their fans. Not attitude issues. Each time I see Pat on video, I remember that time when I met the Late, Great Pat Torpey. I still get teary eyed each time I see tributes to him and when reminded that he is gone. His music will live forever in my heart and to the millions who's lives he has touched. But on hind sight, I still wish he was still around. Even if he did not play anymore, I'd be happy to know he is still alive and well. Thank you for all the music and for being a giant of a human being PAT TORPEY!
So sorry to hear of the premature passing of Pat Torpey. Saw the band in November last year and Pat got the biggest cheer of the night when he came on and played the drums on "Just Take My Heart." Will wear my Mr Big t shirt with pride.
I'm really glad to share this short movie with all of the fans of Pat and MR.BIG. He was rally charming, strong and great drummer who loved everybody. We really miss you, Pat. R.I.P.
*** I am on a quest to get Mr. Big inducted! Write to: Rock & Roll Blvd / Cleveland, OH 44114, USA. We the F-A-N-S owe it to them & to the memory of Pat Torpey to make this happen. They are long-deserving of this 31+yrs achievement & recognition, Get your friends to write in also, the more nominations that are sent in, then they WILL get inducted, finally, where they truly do belong!! Thank You!!
Pat is actually the most handsome member of Mr Big and he also has the second best voice after Eric. While Paul and Billy are well respected musician to this day, I don't know he is never really popular outside Mr Big.

Pat sure loved his fans.
パット！
俺はMR.BIG初来日のライブでアンタを観たんだぜ！
その後も何度もMR.BIGを観に行ったんだ！！
色んなバンドのライブを観に行ったけど
小賢しい技を開けっ広げに見せつけるドラマーなんかより
俺はアンタの「実はスゲェ」実直なドラムの方が何倍も好きなんだ。
何だよ！あの世に逝くには早ぇよ
声援に感極まってるアンタを観て涙が止まらねぇ…
ありがとう
本当にありがとう
R.I.P. Pat
愛と感謝しかないパット。
素晴らしい人間
ミスター・ビッグは音楽への愛と人と人の芸術の結晶なり！
彼の顔を見ると、また思い出します。
この武道館、この場に居れた自分は幸せでした。
３０年以上前にこのバンドに出会えた時から、ありがとう。
数多くのドラマーを見てたけどPatあなたがナンバーワンです。
私は今までもこれからもずっとあなたのドラムの真似をする事と思います。
ありがとう。ご冥福を。
最高のドラマー。
教則ビデオ何百回見たことか。
そして彼は伝説になりました。
もう彼はいないけど世界は彼を忘れない。
それだけでも凄いこと。
いつか会いに行きます。
ありがとう。
Really touching.... You are always one of the greatest drummer in my heart. We miss you, Pat!!
涙が止まらない。
パット安らかに…
動画のアップありがとうございます…

笑顔でドラムを叩く姿が大好きでした！
泣いてしまった・・・・。つらすぎんだろ。
Good bye legend... Thanks for everything you have done
i had the tears in eyes when i was watching this ..your the best pat ... r.i.p.
最後の最後、世代の全然違う僕もパットのファンでした。
どんなにドラムをコピーしようと毎日練習したか。
高校生時代、青春にいつもMR.BIGの音楽がありました。
最後の来日公演を見れて本当に良かった。一生忘れません。
パットはいつまでも語り継がれていく、伝説のドラマーになったんだと思います。
RIP Pat! You will always be missed! I shed tears watching this
パット！初来日コンサートの興奮は今も忘れない！
きっと天国でもドラムをたたき続けているんだよね。
とても悲しい気持ちでいっぱいだけど、これからも多くのファンの心にパットのドラムが響き続けるよ！

R.I.P Pat Torpey
私もこの時武道館にいました。まさか、これがパットを目の前に見る最後になるとは思っていなかったけど、、、改めて今日見て泣けた、、、。
パットの笑顔が1番好きでした子どもにも優しい。いつもにこにこ大らかで、悲報を今知りました、心に穴があいてます、彼を戻して下さい神さま天国でも笑顔でドラムを叩いてくれ。忘れない。

Why I had my tears ??
泣けた・・・
ドラマーです。
今日、自分がやってるバンドでライブをしました。
いつも通りに上手く叩けず、イライラしてました。
ドラムやバンドの事でむしゃくしゃしたりイライラすると毎回「何を目指してドラムしてたんやっけ」「なんでこんな事してるんやっけ」っとなり。
そして毎回動画でパットのドラムを見て、「こうなりたいんやった」っと
毎回僕に動画を通じて教えてくれます。
今日も僕の人生の指標になってくれてありがとうございます。
死ぬほど努力していいライブします。
動画あげてくれてる方いつもありがとうございます。
Strong Person of The years
R.I.P
THE LEGEND
RIP legend forever😢
We miss you Pat
Thinking of you Pat.
legend
🌠 pat
Pat is actually the most handsome member of Mr Big and he also has the second best voice after Eric. While Paul and Billy are well respected musician to this day, I don't know he is never really popular outside Mr Big.
最後だとわかってたのかなぁ。
また会いたかったよ！
Look at Pat´s face after the clip. Damn. :`(
We will miss you pat...😂😂😂
RIP Pat . .
R.I.P.....
❤❤❤❤❤❤
じーんときた。
得意な事は(あきらめない事)
ポジティブな思考が世界的な名ドラマーへと進化させていったのかな。
I wonder who press unlike button..are they fool..or they av no brain shame to does.. really
ドラム叩きてー❗ってマジで聞こえたよ。
To be with you Pat
映像のラスト、「つづく…」だなんて。。。
Rip pat
🥺❤️
pat is look like older than other personels, I think that he got the seriuos sick. But whatever, you're the great one...Pat...We'll always miss you brad...all of respects for you Pat...GBU
😭😭😍
Did Eric really say "and I'm the one who wrote to be with you?" trying to steal the spotlight off of a dying friend? 🤦
"and I'm the one who wANTs to be with you" he always does that before this song
Thats horrible. Wow the singer is shot..
R.I.P --- I'm going to miss you Pat
