      The Grandmaster Flash tour is fast approaching and fans of the old master of Hip Hop can get an insight into what he has in store for them by tuning into the Triple J Hip Hop show tonight (10pm-midnight). Host Nicole Foote will be broadcasting an interview with Grandmaster Flash, recorded on the eve of his Australian tour. To pique your interest,

      So Flash, what can Australian audiences expect from your tour?
      A DJ musical teachers history lesson, what I attempt to do is, I’m gonna start off with the struggling years. The struggling years is the music that I played before I was famous, before I had a record, before I had a popular name, before I was a star. I’m going to play the music of the years where skill was what you had to have in order to survive...... Then I’m gonna slowly bring it up to 2003 from a dj’s standpoint.


      Tickets for the tour have been selling fast, so get in quick if you're wanting to go.

      Grandmaster Flash Australian Tour Dates:
      Wed 14 May - The Governor Hindmarsh, Adelaide
      Thur 15 May - The Forum, Melbourne
      Fri 16 May - Metro, Perth
      Sat 17 May - Hordern Pavilion, Sydney
