       Pat’s hammer has busted more doors open for him in Music City than his guitar. After flunking his first audition at what Vince Gill calls “the center of the songwriting universe,” Bluebird Café, the owner hired him to remodel the restroom and hang out for free. “It was songwriting school for me.” Pat recalls. “Often, I got to listen to a songwriter’s first performance of what would later become one of the world’s greatest songs. Songs that were true, right out a songwriter’s life became my favorites. I quit trying to write hits and started telling my story. Then I started getting cuts.”

“In a recent Country Music History book, Amy is quoted. “The laconic wit in his songs definitely sets him apart in Music City.” Kurland supported Pat’s work opening halfway and 12step clubhouses (Woodbine) in Nashville and together, they became the first to broadcast open mics on the Internet, 1997. Live at the Bluebird Cafe later ran five seasons on the Turner South Network. In Peter Bogdonovich’s movie about the Cafe, The thing Called Love (River Phoenix’s last movie, Sandra Bullock’s first) Pat was given a small role playing himself as a wanna-be-hit-songwriter. “They cut my big part in order to keep it PG.” Pat laments.


         Pat is a jack  of all trades, master at some, (brick, block, stone, tile, carpentry, fence repair, remodel design)...but the economy has changed Pat's typical handyman gigs. Instead of pounding nails, hammering stone, he has been doing a lot of video work, making YouTube clips of public interest and for Godaddy Web Pages.

The Story of Pat and Gabe:
       Pat Barber is a handyman and Troubadour, just successful enough to still play his little known songs and survive at the bottom of the Music Industry Food Chain, (part timing as a handyman). He travels with his dog, Gabe, in an old 4x4 4-runner and lives in what he calls a Field Hut, a custom made little house for him and his dog that he pulls from town to town, playing sidewalks and coffee shops for tips.         The rising price of fuel was poised to become a final killing blow to his musical dream. And as a final insult, he ran out of money in Sedona, AZ, where it is against the law to play music on the sidewalk. Instead of giving up, he decided to first try to find alternative fuel solutions like the secret of hydrogen generators, converting water to hydrogen gas then get back on his Tour Less Traveled with a hydrogen auto and maybe solve the World's energy crisis (home, auto and commercial) in the mean time.
       In Sedona, they will hire anyone to drive Jeep, Hummer and Humvee tours. Pat was hired, made the big Sedona Tour Guide bucks, bought a Sony Handycam and then his new videos immediately got him fired. However, he did manage o grub stake enough funds to continue making better Hydrogen Fuel Cells. He got so good at it that people actually paid him to make some prototypes. Eventually he developed a design that would take 30 amps of current off of his 12v auto's alternator, run it through a series of Stainless Steel HHO Fuel cells fashioned after a Stan Meyer design. (Stan was the guy that made the first water car. They say the Oil Companies killed him when he wouldn't sell em his plans.) Pat ran the current through a series of 4 HHO fuel cells on his hydrogen generator, knocking the voltage down to under 3v per cell and solved the overheating problem. If he drove very slowly, the system improved his mileage 30%.
   
Pat would bypass his automatic shut-off and show off how he could weld and cook with water.  One day he absentmindedly left his hydrogen generator (HHO fuel cells) on making a gallon of gas per minute till the battery went dead. He got a jump. He turn the key, Click...BOOM! He and his friend, John McKay left his smoking 4-runner and went to lunch. While they were gone, the S.W.A.T team went through the house looking for a dead body.
         Now Pat's working on an electric car. The solution seems to be not in just one fuel source but an electric car combined with many charging sources, including HHO and Solar.
