Saw them live in Lewiston, Maine circa 1993-1994. A couple of local death metal bands opened for them. Met Dan Lilker, he was wasted and fell over on stage quite a few times during the show but was eating pizza out backstage before they went on and that's when I met him, pretty nice guy and super laid back.
I love Survive and Handle With Care. Both classic albums to this day.

Either way, I think I saw Nuke at least 5 times in the DC/Balto area back then. My favorite was the first time they played Network. I remember standing out back with Moose and the guys from Deceased and Abominog and Nuke was inside sound checking and we all thought the soundman was playing Nuke's latest record over the PA but it was them. Album perfect with all the insane energy of a live thrash band. Gets no better than that.

The Civic Center? That’s my hometown, I used to live in the apartment that was directly to the left of the civic center....actually spent the majority of 20 years on that same street in multiple, shitty apartments.
Nice to see a fellow Mainer and yes, there are plenty of shitty apartments around that area and luckily I never had to live in any of them but I did live on Boston Ave across from the Lewiston High School in the 90s which was kinda alright.

I think I know what you’re talking about, kinda closer to Main St? I know they weren’t having any shows there by ‘98. I moved out of Lewiston in ‘95 and came back in ‘98 when I was 15, which was when I first started going to shows alone. Boston Ave wasn’t bad at all. I lived on the corners of Howard/Ash, Howard/Pine and Howard/Walnut for most of that time, aside from when we lived in Hillview up Sabattus St. I was actually going to go back up there Memorial Weekend as my best friend is up there, but he’s probably heading down to Mass instead.
And when I was really little, I lived in 2 apartments on Blake St, that nasty blue apartment with the big sandlot next to it on the corner of Walnut/Blake and at one point, Knox St. Man, I can smell that weird Lewiston smell thinking about it; the smell of bread mixed with alley trash/mud puddles....has this weird sour smell to it that I’ll forever associate with downtown Lewiston.The Karmic Law is not kismet.

Sadly, our jam space is there but at least its in a nice part of the dirty Lew (on Bradford st right off upper Sabattus st) where my singer lives, a nice house in a nice neighborhood. I live west of Auburn in Mechanic Falls and work in Auburn which is nicer.
If you ever come visit, let me know. Cheers!
