Reviews

"Went to see Shadow, James Lavelle, Charlie (from Attica Blues), and Money Mark (keyboards for the Beastie Boys) last night. A very pleasant way to recover after New Year's Eve. It was billed as the Mo' Wax Headz tour, and it taught me a lot about Mo' Wax. It turns out that it's not *quite* what I'm into - a bit too deep and dark for me. Also, I just can't seem to get into hip hop style vocals. Money Mark just sat there with a few electronic toys and mumbled into the microphone and doing not much. He kept starting songs, and then stopping and mumbling again. We were all getting pissed, until we realised what he was mumbling about - apparently his drummer (50% of his band) hadn't turned up, and he was left to try and entertain regardless. Anyway, while not quite what I'm into, I still couldn't think of a better way to chill out on New Year's Day."[2]

Notes

DJ Shadow and Money Mark were part of the Summersault Tour which occurred at the same time as an Australian Mo'Wax Tour.

"Money Mark and the MoWax Crew" also played an instore gig at B# Record Store in Adelaide on 5 Jan 1996.[3]

DJ Krush was meant to appear on tour[4] but double booked, pulling out due to "illness"[5].
