UK - Artist and impresario Tony Moore is launching his new concept, The Airwaves Tour, on 17 August, flying to 15 UK airfields and performing a gig at each - all in the space of nine days, and in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust.

To help him hit the heights of his performance at each stop, Moore will be using a lightweight gig set up comprising a Soundcraft MFX8 (one of the new Lexicon-equipped, Soundcraft FX mixer family) and JBL Eon 10 powered speakers.

Moore comments: "I contacted my friends at Soundcraft as we use their mixers and other Harman equipment in The Bedford and the Regal Room for all our events. The new MFX8 mixer fitted the bill perfectly; not only does it deliver the high quality audio I require, but being equipped with onboard Lexicon effects, it saves me taking additional rack gear and reduces weight, especially important for this gig."

A newly qualified pilot, Moore will be flying solo in a Cessna 172, armed only with the Harman Pro gear, his acoustic guitar and keyboards and will perform songs from his current album Perfect and Beautiful plus hits from his past.

All the shows will be free and open to the general public. Other established artists he's worked with over the years have also promised to make guest appearances. Audience members will be asked to make a donation to the charity on the day of the performance and, if they put their name 'in the hat', they could win a Gibson acoustic guitar and a trip in Moore's Cessna.
