“The first official Lucy’s show was held on Dec. 3, 1992. In many ways, it was a perfect time capsule of early ’90s punk. Band names such as Impetuous Doom, Vomit Spots, Hemophilia, and Utter Contempt for Society…as word spread about the Sunday-afternoon matinees, something exciting and strange began to happen at Lucy’s. With nowhere else to go, teens started hanging out there on weekends…Lucy’s became the place every band had to play.” - Jim Ridley, Nashville Scene, January 29, 1998
