SHOW #12! State College, PA On this episode of Metal Tales we talk with our pal and patron Nick Mockoviak. Many of you will be familiar with Nick and his work as he is responsible for the amazing "Cover Our World Blackened, Vol. 1" artwork. An artist and art teacher in New Jersey (for real), Nick is a die hard fan. On this episode we talk about coming online during the early 90's, growing to appreciate Load/Reload, narrowly missing the MSG S&M performance, a highlight of the 9 shows Nick has been to, the influence of Pushead on his work, how to submit for the individual show posters and, of course, the Metallica show in State College.
