          Before making countless contributions to punk and alternative rock across more than 40 years, Foo Fighters guitarist Pat Smear was born Georg Ruthenberg on August 5, 1959, in Los Angeles.

          He had an unusual childhood, running away from home when he was only 13 years old and spending time with a religious commune before attending University High near Santa Monica. Smear never quite fit in, and his formative years as an outcast surely played a role in his love for punk rock, a genre friendly to wayward youths.

          Smear is mostly known for his time with the Foo Fighters, but his path to the band is just as interesting, and is marked by stints with several important groups.

          Even though he doesn't have the same name recognition as many other rock stars, Smear has played a massive role in rock music since the late 1970s. Let's take a look at Pat Smear's rock 'n' roll journey.
