   About Illusive Mind Gypsy Crew( BIG SHOW + NEW TUNES!!)
FREE MASON, FREE HIM NOW LIVE 21/07/08

The Illusive Mind Gypsy Crew is an art collective from Winnipeg, Manitoba. It is an experiment in communal creativity that has taken the form of a noise we call "prairie metal." The new release, Vagrant Moth Three, completes a series of homemade albums the band has been recording since 2006. The Vagrant Moth Demonstrations were started by Todd McDougall and Terrell Froese as a way to share their songwriting quickly and fluidly while also attracting collaborators. Three years and countless campfires later, over 40 people have contributed to passing on all the old gypsy lore. Vagrant Moth Three is an expression of a community. Its songs are eyes staring through the isolated perspective of life in the Red River Valley. It takes place in a land of living skies, where the horizon relaxes without interuption. Mechanical stability and organic growth... distant cousins maybe. On this recording IMGC use Winnipeg's reliable two degrees of separation to research this family tree. We made specific decision to include the voices of as many of our friends and musical collaborators as possible. Raising a fist to the united sound of our families, childhood friends, neighbors, and incestual music scene. This sound is vigorous, excessive, and ultimately triumphant. IMGC has been performing live since 2004 and has since taken their travelling circus across Canada on tours long and short. The gypsy wagon carries a show that generally includes video projections, costumes, mascots, and improvised jams. Pretty much a gang of rodeo clowns. A freakshow exhibition of epic psychedelic heavy metal.

REVIEWS:

"At its core, the Illusive Mind Gypsy Crew is a three-piece band, with guitar, bass, and drums. However, there were no less than five people on stage at any given time with one to twiddle the effects knobs and another providing occasional vocals and keyboards in addition to looking after the band's picture-show backdrop. Melding trippy psychedelic melodies with heavy riffing and harsh vocals, the Crew was like nothing the Kathedral had ever seen before." - Greg, www.toohightogetitright.com. Review of Aug 23rd '08 at the Katherdral, Toronto.

"What would it sound like if Bob Dylan collaborated with Tool? A strange question to be sure, but one that’s at the heart of Illusive Mind Gypsy Crew (IMGC), a Winnipeg collective..." - Aaron Epp, The Uniter.

"A metal band from Winnipeg that successfully fuses tribal folk rhythms with heavy metal guitar... many try, few succeed. The notion of the heavy metal jam band rarely flies... but I challenge you to listen to this bands tracks here on the interweb and tell me this won't be one of the most interesting heavy shows to come around since we first laid eyes on Ekatree" - The Townehouse Tavern in Sudbury.

CHEETHAM'S ZOMBIES - PHOTO COOKIES
Are now available to order for your Halloween parties, Haunted Attractions, Concerts, Movie Premieres, and Zombie Walks!
We take a regular photo of you, turn you into a zombie, and place you on the very cookies you choose to sell at your event, or hand out as treats...but that's not all we can do.
We can take your logo, your promo posters, our photos of your cast members or attractions, and place them on the cookies too!
These are literally one of a kind treats, the cookies you order will be shipped to nobody else. Each cookie has a vivid image of your choice and are delicious. They come wrapped in cellophane with your choice of ribbon color and are then packaged in individual boxes (as seen in the photo above, boxes are optional). These are truly, edible works of dark art.
If you would like more info on pricing or zombie makeovers, feel free to contact me here on Myspace or go to myphotocookie.com
 You won't be disappointed!
