The Resume

    (April 16, 1942- )
    Born in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania
    Birth name is Patrick Henry Sickafus
    Recorded 'Bad Woman,' ‘Wild Hog,’ 'Cruisin,' 'I Want a Sexy Ol Lady,' and ‘Jumpin John'
    Opened the Pat Garrett Amphitheater in 1995
    Owns the Pat Garrett Roadhouse in Berks County, Pennsylvania
    Lead singer for The Pat Garrett Band

Why he might be annoying:

    His stage name turns up Google searches inordinately related to the Sheriff who killed Billy the Kid (his original stage name was Pat Farrell).
    He gained notoriety writing a tribute song, 'Moose Shootin' Mama,' to Sarah Palin during her 2008 Vice Presidential campaign.
    The song earned him a spot as an opening act on the campaign trail after Palin heard it (he later said of the experience: ‘It was a great ride... until November 4').
    The song was featured on his CD ‘Countryversial Tunes,’ in addition to a new song of his - ‘The Tea Party Song.’
    His music panders to the MAGA demographic (most famously penning 'I'm Gonna Stand' as a way of sticking it to the NFL and Colin Kaepernick).

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was an art teacher for a year before quitting to run his family’s gas station while doing singing gigs on the side.
    His songs have been covered by Arctic Monkeys, Hoyt Axton, and Jimmy Sturr.
    His song ‘The Saddam Stomp’ hit the Billboard 100 charts, and was featured on ABC News.
    Taylor Swift, aged eleven, made some of her earliest singing appearances at both his Amphitheater and Roadhouse.
    He also owns and runs the Pat Garrett Sheepskin Outlet, and two radio stations, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
    His wife, songwriter Suzy Dalton, performs with him in his five-piece band.
    'I'm Gonna Stand' went viral in the wake of the NFL protests and became his biggest hit on iTunes.
