In a short interview with Rock Sound, Patent Pending frontman Joe Ragosta talks the band's early years and influences. They were a Green Day and Blink-182 cover band, except they couldn't really play the songs. Naturally, Billie Joe was one of his teenage musical heroes. Their song [url=https://youtu.be/E9o4gsxTXUU]Classic You[/url] even references Green Day.
Of their first meeting at the Bowery Electric in New York, he says:
