'''Richard Patrick''' (born May 10, 1968) is a former guitarist for [[Nine Inch Nails]]. He has played the guitar since the age of nine and names The Cure, U2, and Stone Temple Pilots as primary musical influences, specifically the inventive use of technology and flood sounds used by those artists. His actor brother, Robert Patrick, was often seen wearing NIN shirts and pins while Richard was a member, as evidenced by his headshots from the time. This can also be seen on the behind-the-scenes footage for Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
According to the biography on the official Filter website, Patrick was nicknamed "[[Piggy]]" during his sessions with Nine Inch Nails. It is unknown however whether this has any relation or if it has had influence to the NIN song by the same name.
