episode 49: The other one with The Members’ Nigel Bennett
September 2018: True punks don’t age gracefully and Nigel Bennett, former Members member and current guitarist for the Vibrators, couldn’t care less.
I first met Nigel when he was performing at a charity gig in North Norfolk and we chatted about everything from his naughty school days to snake skin boots.
Now he’s lifting the lid on the reality of the music business with a new solo album “Another Bump in the Road” which chronicles the euphoria and exhaustion that comes with the occasionally glamorous job.
