You know the video of our song "California" - directed by Spike Jonze ... the guy on fire runs in slow motion. The running time is 2:22. Here it is speeded up to actual time ... 12 seconds. Cool.

WAX performs in Bio-Dome

So, WAX appeared in the Pauly Shore movie, Bio-Dome (1996). The plot is too ridiculous to try and explain, but WAX appears as the band in a party scene set in the bio-dome, and perform a few songs.

WAX performed three tunes for the film: a cover of Cheap Trick's "He's A Whore" and two other songs, "Your Intelligence" and "Do You Wanna Dance."

"He's a Whore" can only be heard in this scene, and is not on the film's official soundtrack album as the other two songs are.

The film starred Pauly Shore, Stephen Baldwin, and Joey Lauren Adams.

Check it out!
