Name Nigel (seb) Coe
Age “I’m not 50”!!!
Status Eternally optimistic
Role in Band Bass guitar - backing vocals (when they plug my mike in)
What would you like us to know about your instrument? (keep it clean) It has a 35” scale length ideal for the low B string and very rare, 34” is the standard. “not many people know that”
What was first record you ever bought? Day dream believer (the monkeys) well my mum actually went into the shop I was only 6 but I asked for it
If you could only go and see one band/artist before you die who would it be? Sadly they have already gone before me but it would have been Queen with Freddie. Would like to see Tom Jones at some point great performer.
Most memorable Holiday? That’s easy, dicing with death for two weeks sailing my friends boat from Great Yarmouth to the south of France every waking moment was an adventure, convinced we were going to die.
Least favourite food? Anything that watches me while I eat it, fish mainly.
If you could only rescue five items from a burning building what would they be? (no people allowed) Other than my Bass no material thing matters to me enough to risk singeing my eye brows, I look very silly without them trust me.
What would you like people to say about you after they’ve seen the band? Wow! would be a good start
What do you think they actually say about you? Who was that masked man?
When you make your fortune what’s the first thing you will buy? A house big enough for me and all my toys. Bit of a gadget freak.
Tell us a childhood memory. The wind moaning in the wires on a hot summer’s day while waiting to meet up with my friends again after lunch, you never hear it now, no summer for one thing, but the world is just too loud.
Who would play you in a film about your life? My old music teacher saw him play bass guitar at a school Christmas party asked him to teach me, love him for ever for that.
And what would the theme tune be? Oh my god have I got to pick just one, schools out Alice cooper.
What really gets you mad? Don’t get me started.
If you met someone for the first time what would be most likely to put you off them? Bad manners absolutely no excuse.
What’s your motto for life? S*** happens.
What’s your guilty pleasure? Cadbury’s chocolate cream egg.
