Georgia musician Nate Niec might not have been a household name, but the bassist definitely left his mark in his community. In addition to playing bass in punk bands like No Holds Barred and Das Maniacs, Niec worked at a camp for traumatized children and even did some acting work, playing a monster in an indie film. Niec was killed in 2009 in a traffic accident in Johns Creek, an area near his home in Alpharetta.
