Oct 30, 1992: Held at the original Sound
Factory space (now Twilo, now closed), MASKARAVE™ was put together by SCOTTO, MOBY,
DB,and Marcy Weber (MOBY's manager) and was the first NASA concert production outside
of the Shelter. It featured the original NASA Dj roster, DB, Ani, Jason Jinx, Mr.Kleen,
and SoulSlinger with live performances by ALTERN 8 from ENGLAND and MOBY. over 3200
attended this CMJ event in the pouring down rain. # 2.
Oct 30, 1993: It was held at the New York
Coliseum ( now torn down) where we not only sold out the room - but No one had that
kind of attendance at the Coliseum since the WHO played there in 1977! MASKARAVE

live shows from MOBY, APHEX TWIN, ORBITAL, and VAPOURSPACE and DJ's Josh Wink, D'mitry
