Patrick Briggs

Pat was a good soul who lived many adventures, aural and visual. I remember his energy, is output, and his character. I wish he was still among us.

I remember ru ready? I was at PolyGram records and we saw Pat perform many times at the cat club. He went onto fame as we knew he would - so incredibly talented. Rest in peace Pat. Jill

I saw Psychotica play on the last date coming off of the Lallapalooza tour. During the performance of New Man, I found myself in a restroom whose door faced the front wall of the venue, and the astounding sonic wail of his voice bouncing off of that wall and surrounding me is one of my most very treasured concert experiences. Truly had to be felt to be understood! Rest in peace, my lovely.

Been over a couple of years now, and ages since we talked at all (I was at the last Don Hill's show, but we didn't get to talk, and I regret that), but I still miss just knowing that Pat was out there in the world, doing the thing.

I learned so much about being both a performer and a good person from Pat, and it was all taught without effort, and by example. It didn't all sink in at the same time, but I think I've mostly got it now.

No one sounded quite like Patrick Briggs, or had his perspective. No one I've met or spent time around in show business of any sort was kinder and more respectful to their fans, so many of whom became friends in the time I spent around him.

Continued love and strength to everyone reading this who cared about Pat.

Whether he knew it or not, Pat was directly responsible for the 20 best years of my life - and he seemed GENUINELY shocked when I asked him about RU Ready the first time I met him after a Psychotica show. Rest well, sir, the world is A LOT darker without your voice to light it up.

We lost a great voice and a great man. He took time to write to my partner, which is such a generous gift, and sent my partner a picture of one of his tattoos. He will be missed by some fans in Maryland. Rest Easy, Pat!

Thank you for the memories

My drummer and I went to our usuall place in KC, The Riot Room and walked into the aural assault of Psychotica on their first tour. We had no idea who they were but we were instantly fans. Pats voice was unbelievable!
I followed the band to a few shows on the following tour!
Pat was a beautiful soul as well as a beautiful voice and will be celebrated and missed the rest of my days.

The laughs that we've had, the tears that we cried the memories you left live on brightly inside.

No words can express what the first Psychotica album meant to me, still means...I never have quite fit in anywhere, often felt on the outside of every given situation, but this album...your music...made me feel like, somewhere, there were others who understood, who felt the things that i felt, saw the things that i saw. I can never repair that gift, but will never forget it either. Rest easy Pat,,,

I worked with Patrick in Palm Springs. He was one of a kind and will be greatly missed.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Please take comfort in the words found at 2nd Thessalonians 2:16,17.
