Mansun - Stove King

	The Band

Name Stove King
Age 22
Band role Bass
Reputation The quiet one; silent but deadly (smashed his bass, Sid Vicious-style, over the head of a heckler at a gig in Leicester); the Cheshire James Bond.
Former Employment Photo Retoucher for Wirral Graphics for one year after leaving Liverpool Printing College
Lives In Chester with friend Ben Hughes
Heroes Roger Moore as James Bond, John Travolta in "Saturday Night Fever", Barry Gibb, Clint Eastwood.
Crucial records "The Very Best Of The Bee Gees", Soundgarden's "Superunknown".
What are your obsessions? "I collect James Bond videos. I've got six Sean Connerys, seven Roger Moores, one George Lazenby, two Timothy Daltons and a Pierce Brosnan. I bought a safari suit for £15 the other day in a second-hand shop in London, probably subconsciously because it was a bit James Bond-y.
"I love The Bee Gees as well, especially Barry Gibb - he was so corny he was cool. Can I imagine Bee Gees fans being into Mansun? Well, there are Bee Gees fans in Mansun... I love that look: the flares, the tight trousers. And "Saturday Night Fever" (featuring Bee Gees soundtrack) - that bit where John Travolta's sitting down at dinner, ready to go out, with a towel on and his dad hits his hair - brilliant.
