Drummer of “Left End” who lived a double life pens memoir

For 40 years, Patsy Palombo lived a double life.

By day he was the director of development and stewardship with the Catholic Diocese of Youngstown.

At night he was the drummer for Left End, a rock act beloved and renowned for its live show and the outrageous antics of lead singer Dennis T. Menass (real name Dennis Sesonsky).

“I could be playing with Left End for a really rowdy rock crowd at the Arcade or another club in Youngstown or Warren, get home at 3:30 in the morning and then have a 9 a.m. meeting with the bishop and a group of priests,” Palombo said. Palombo, 69, tells the music side of that double life in his book “Tenacity: The Left End Story,” which he released in late November 2020.

He wrote the 200-page, illustrated memoir in a only a few months, had it printed at City Printing in Youngstown and is self-distributing it through his website, www.palomborocks.com. He already sold more than 400 copies in less than a month.
