spontaneous and organic feel, while ensuring that the sonic quality is top-notch.You could safely say that until they are playing live at a party

the Boom Festival, Soulclipse, Zoom, Doof, Life Festival, Alex Grey’s MicroCOSM gallery and the Berlin TattooConvention. The Collective’s live
feasts have pleased crowds in Switzerland, Portugal, Germany, Holland, England, Ireland,Scotland, Turkey, Israel and the USA. In the second
half of 2007, the PGC will perform in festivals around Europe, includingthe Wickerman Festival and the Psychedelic Ceilidh.
