To celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut album, 93 ’til Infinity, Oakland group Souls of Mischief are going on tour this spring.

Oakland hip-hop legends Souls of Mischief are giving fans a dose of nostalgia starting in March. The group, composed of members A-Plus, Phesto, Opio and Tajai, will embark on a 93-date tour to honor their classic debut 93 ’til Infinity. The tour kicks off just two weeks after their inaugural 1993 LP turns 30.


The tour will begin its European leg in Bristol, United Kingdom on March 1, also hitting London, Amsterdam, Berlin, Stockholm, Paris, Athens and more before wrapping up on April 9 in Sofia, Bulgaria.

North American dates for the tour kickoff on May 27 in Monterey, California, where the four members will have dates in Toronto, New York City, Washington D.C., Atlanta, Kansas City, Memphis, San Antonio, San Francisco, Phoenix, Los Angeles and more, concluding on September 17 at Red Rocks, Colorado.


Tajai proposed hitting the road in an interview with Rock the Bells last year.


“We got the 30th anniversary of 93 ‘Til Infinity coming next year, so we’ve been working with a lot of people about really blowing that out,” Tajai told Rock the Bells at the time. “We’re trying to do 93 shows. I’m getting offers in Europe. I mean, U.S. of course, but Europe, too. I got an offer from Brazil yesterday, so we’re trying to market that. It’s also the 20th anniversary of Full Circle and then also the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop.”

Released on September 28, 1993, 93 ’til Infinity brought Souls of Mischief into the limelight with singles “93 ’til Infinity,” “That’s When Ya Lost” and “Never No More.”

The ’93 til Infinity LP vinyl is in stock on Okayshop.

It's a smaller venue though. But at least I can visit the record shop upstairs before the show.

Wish I could be down there for that one.

Over before 11pm too. That was nice. Pharcyde doesn’t seem to realize their fans are as old as them so I’m glad Souls catered to the washed.

I ask because I bypassed their recent show in SF to see the Jungle Brothers that night. I’m curious as to what I missed.

But I went to see whatever they’re calling themselves now - it was the Pharcyde iteration with Tre and Fatlip. I’d seen their Bizarre Ride show for the 20th anniversary back in 2012 and had an amazing time. Fast forward 10 years - I go to the 30th anniversary show. They don’t go on until midnight or so. Played 90ish minutes. But whew were my feet and knees on fire. I can’t hang like I used to.

The reason I felt like I missed out is because the iteration you are referring to with Tre and Fatlip (who I also say previously with J-Swift) have added Imani now. It ain’t at 100% but it’s closer and I do love some Imani. Did see them all together years back on reunion tour but it doesn’t seem like another is likely w/Bootie Brown not quite ready to jump back into the fold. 3 out of 4 ain’t bad though, eh?

These shows are blurring, because back in 2012 J-Swift had a weird mic effect pitching him up to do all of Imani's verses, lol. That show was hype was hell - they ran through all of Bizarre Ride and the encore was Runnin/She Said.

This show, 10 years later...it was fine. Could be because I'm not used to the headliners going on around midnight but it just didn't have the same energy and feel - but hey, they're a decade older, so...

Still - they're always compelling live.
