The Nostrils formed in the summer of 1979 in Bruce Hallet’s parents' basement and in no time at all were told to "take it outside." In November 1979 the Nostrils "auditioned" a drummer from St. James, the name of Scott Coats, in a friend's basement. He liked the songs, but didn't join because he wanted to join a Led Zepellin cover band and play in bars. That didn't pan out for Scotty, so he became a Nostril in December.
