EofE has a remarkable 2014, touring with the likes of
McBusted and The Vamps as well as playing a sold out hometown shown in
Birmingham.
Now they are attacking 2015 with a new single, Stars in Hollywood,
to be released on March 9th and a debut album to follow.
We caught up with the guys just before their pretty impressive set at
Nottingham’s acclaimed Rock City (06/03) and made them face Louder Now’s Six
Stupid Questions:
Who’s the last person on earth you would want to be stuck
in a lift with?
Reece: Tom
Dan:
Yeah, if you spent a week on a bus with him you would know why.
Nicky:
Hitler!
Dan: If
you met Hitler, you would be dead now.
Nicky:
Yeah but I would want to ask him some questions, like, what are you playing at?
You’re offered half a million dollars to change all
the lyrics to one of your songs for an irritating commercial. Do you consider
it?
Luke: No.
Half a million isn’t that much really is it?
Reece:
Half a million isn’t that much? I wouldn’t mind that!
Luke:
Yeah but it’s not half a million just for me is it? I’d have to split it with
all of you.
Reece:
Even if they offered us £50. I could do with a tenner.
Luke: I
would do it for a million probably but it would depend on what the company was.
I wouldn’t do it for Coca Cola. I would definitely do it for Durex. I would
take £400,000 for Durex.
Is there anything you know this week that you didn’t
know last week?
Dan: What
I smell like if I haven’t showered for a week.
Tom: We
already knew that.
Dan: Well
there’s also no Nando’s in Nuneaton. I had to have Subway and then a pizza
after, which to be fair was quite nice.
Reece:
This week I found out that Jagermeister tastes really nice with Sprite. Those
were the only two options on the bus. It was nice!
Nicky: I
learnt that if you down a pitcher of Zombie…it will make you sick in your bunk.
Reece: He
was laughing about the fact that he was sick in his sleep as well. You could
have died.
Have you ever had nightmares because of a film you
saw?
All: Yes.
Nicky:
The last scary thing I saw was Halloween and my sister had the mask in her room
and I think I dreamt that I walked upstairs to her room and Michael Myers was
there.
Tom: When
was that?
Nicky:
Last week.
Tom: I
did not like the film It. Luke had a
meme on his phone of the clown in It and it was exactly the nightmare I had.
When was the last time you screamed at the TV?
Reece:
Probably something football related, maybe the World Cup?
Nicky:
Game of Thrones. Have you seen it? *THE FOLLOWING HAS BEEN OMITTED FOR SPOILER
ALERT REASONS* I absolutely screamed at the TV when that happened.
Tom: Fifa!
We have this place where we all go to write songs (aka Dan’s house) and when it
gets to midnight and we’re all really frustrated we tend to play Fifa. We were
India, the worst team we could think of , but we were doing so well and then we
just got knocked out.
Nicky: We
lost 14 – 0 to Brazil.
Tom: The
heart just wasn’t in it to be honest.
Dan: We
all let the side down.
If you could chose, what decade would you most like
to have been born in?
Reece:
The 60’s, so I could be in my twenties in the 80’s. As long as I could get away
with having long permed hair and wearing leather trousers and a leather jacket.
I should be allowed to grow my hair.
Tom: You
ARE allowed to grow your hair. You decided to cut it off and grow it on your
face!
Reece:
It’s an ongoing argument because I’m the only one who can grow a beard.
Luke:
Well that’s just not true.
Reece:
Yes it is.
Luke: No,
because I can grow a beard.
Reece: No
you can’t.
Luke:
Yeah. I can. I just choose not to.
Tom: I
would want to be born in the 60’s too so I can write all the best tunes that
came out in the 70s and 80s. Reece copied me to make me look like an idiot. My
answer was better.
Dan: I
would want to be born in the early 40s so I could be in my prime in the 50s and
60s and then get old in the 80s.
Nicky: I
would probably want to be born back when caveman was around.
Dan: What
like 10,000 BC.
Nicky:
Yeah. That was a good year. Back when they started tribal drumming and it
wasn’t spoilt by silly guitars and stuff.
Luke: I
would go for Victorian times. It seems like it was a better time back then.
Reece: I
can so see you being a chimney sweep.
Luke: I
wouldn’t be a chimney sweep, I would invent something like the telephone, you
know what I mean? Make loads of money!
