Rockin’ and Rollin’ Again

On this episode of The Spark: Patrick Mayerchak is taking retirement in stride and getting the band back together. He and four college buddies started a band back in the sixties, and now that they’ve all had careers and families… it’s time to jam again.

The Shoguns today (2015)

Patrick Mayerchak has retired as a Professor of International Studies at Virginia Military Institute, but he may never retire from the Shoguns, a band he and four of his University of Kentucky college buddies put together back in the Sixties. A recent Sogun reunion (and recording session) proves what Patrick maintains in one of the songs he wrote for the band’s new CD: Rock ‘n’  roll will never fade away.
