History [link]
The Peppermint Creeps started life as a 3-piece band, made up of guitarist Macy Malone[1] and bass player Kari Ash, from Canada, and drummer Traci Michaelz, from the United States.
Later adding Marky DeSade on vocals, together they recorded three demo tracks that were released shortly in 1998 on cassette tape. Soon after Marky left and Macy Malone continued with vocals. They were joined by guitarist/vocalist Billi Foxxx and Bassist/Vocalist Joseph Michael(Trixi) with whom they performed live shows through 1999. Joseph Michael Known for being Related to Ronnie James Dio and Founding Hollywood Metal band Midnight Reign.
The Peppermint Creeps then recorded a studio E.P. with guitarist Macy Malone on vocals, that was produced by Phil Soussan (Ozzy Osbourne, Vince Neil & Billy Idol) and Randy Castillo (Mötley Crüe, Ozzy Osbourne, Lita Ford & The Motels), called "Cre.E.P.show".
In 2002, Peppermint Creeps expanded from a three-piece band, to a four piece, bringing in Arizona guitarist/vocalist Eddie Electra. The group regularly played Traci Michaelz two semi-monthly club nights "Club Paranormal" and "Glamageddon" at the Key Club in Hollywood, CA. They recorded their first full length album Animatron-X in 2002.
In 2003 bassist Kari Ash would leave the band and Andii Stittch would fill in. Shortly thereafter, the group filmed a video for their song "Lesbian". The video featured computer graphics of the band in a candy world, similar to that seen in "Charlie & the Chocolate Factory" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas". Stittch would not fill in for the band for long, leaving shortly after the group played a show in Hollywood with fellow Glam Metal band, the Murderdolls.
The Creeps recruited guitarist Robbie Stylez from local Hollywood band "BlaQ!", and Eddie switched to bass. The band gained further attention due to their MySpace profile, becoming the website's #1 Glam band. In 2005, they released their second album, "We Are the Weirdos" (the title is a quote from Fairuza Balk's character Nancy in the movie "The Craft"). They also filmed videos for "Stupid", "Pop Culture" and "Life". Shortly after, Robbie left the band.
On September 15, 2006, the band unveiled the new line-up which returned the band to a four piece. Robbie Stylez returned to the band on guitar, and a new member Billy Blade was brought in on bass. Opportunities and endorsements started coming in at this time such as Cleopatra's record deal and Dean Guitars[2] endorsement.
Along with a new website, the Peppermint Creeps revealed that they would be opening a new fan club in 2007 called "The Creepy Club". They also put out a preview for the 2009 album, in the form of a free download of a song called "Just Another Day". They filmed videos for "Just Another Day", "Let Your Voice Be Heard", "Broken Dollz", "Heartbleed" and The Vapors cover "Turning Japanese". The band went on to record a cover cd called "Cover Up" and was released on Cleopatra Records. Soon after, guitarist Robbie once again left the band.
Traci Michaelz died in the early morning hours of Friday, June 13, 2008 after performing in Fort Worth Texas at the Rockstar Sports Bar the previous night.
The band released the new album In Hell with Traci Michaelz's last drum tracks on May 30, 2009.

Cree
The Cree (historical autonym: Nēhiraw; French: cri) are one of the largest groups of First Nations in North America, with over 200,000 members living in Canada. The major proportion of Cree in Canada live north and west of Lake Superior, in Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and the Northwest Territories. About 38,000 live in Quebec.
In the United States, this Algonquian-speaking people historically lived from Lake Superior westward. Today, they live mostly in Montana, where they share a reservation with the Ojibwe (Chippewa).
The documented westward migration over time has been strongly associated with their roles as traders and hunters in the North American Fur Trade.
Sub-groups
The Cree are generally divided into eight groups based on dialect and region. These divisions do not necessarily represent ethnic sub-divisions within the larger ethnic group:
Cree (surname)
Cree is a surname which has several separate origins in England, Scotland and Ireland. It occurs in all those countries today and also in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States. It is of Medium Frequency in Scotland and Northern Ireland (using the benchmarks of the Guild of One-Name Studies) (Spathaky 1998).
Cree surname research
Prior to 1989 a few people had already researched their individual Cree ancestry in the UK (notably Brigadier Hilary Cree in Devon and members of the Yorkshire and Glasgow Cree lines). Robert H Cree in the USA had spent a lifetime researching five Cree lines emanating from western Pennsylvania in the late 18th Century. Cree surname research started in earnest in the UK in 1989 with the publication by Trevor Cree of a booklet listing all Cree entries from the Indexes to Birth, Marriages and Deaths (1837-1980) for England and Wales (Cree 1988). Entries from the 1988 IGI (International Genealogical Index) were also included. The surname is registered with the Guild of One-Name Studies.

Creep Show
by: Killer MikeWelcome to the creep show, street show, freak show, peep show
Anything goes strippers and live shows
It's the creep show, street show, freak show, peep show
Ecstasy, hydro, and good blow
It's the creep show, street show, freak show, peep show
Hoes strip, where pimps and hoes do strolls
It's the creep show, street show, freak show, peep show
Where hustlas collect rocks and straight rolls
Welcome home motherfuckers you're back again
Into the den of inequity the life of sin
Where after the after party and the hotel lobbies
Probably find me drunk off Bacardi
In a swank hotel an aspiring actress
Trying to push her back through a thousand dollar mattress
In Chicago a couple of bottles, couple of models, stolen Diablos
Fast and furious going full throttle
Post club function, pills get swallowed
Ladies get loose and so do bra straps
Power, money and sex drive good raps
Freaks emerge in a twilight with party pack
Of hydros alcohol blurred eye sight
From dusk till dawn is when vampires roam
Pro athletes trick and don't go home
It's the creep show, street show, freak show, peep show

Hoes strip, where pimps and hoes do strolls
It's the creep show, street show, freak show, peep show
Where hustlas collect rocks and straight rolls
Riding with my nigga big boy you don't sleep
Even partied with Diddy up in NYC
Got drunk, rubbed titties of Dominican freaks
Every night bachelor party in the boom boom room
On trees get burned or liquor consumed
You ain't really seen a color, till you seen it on shrooms
Lipstick on the pale of my Pelle lapel
Spot hotter than fish scales cooked in coked ale
Vampire party and we gets it down
In the undergrounds, underground
Underground in club comer's basement
Ladies and low life's do get wasted
So high you can't hear the music
But you feel it when the bass hits
The atmosphere like the first year
Freak bass hit every body's heart goes fast
Rolling Mitsubishi's shakin' that ass

Fat dick for all my enemies
Caught a disease fucking Roy and Jazzie T
My girlfriend's a fucking fool when she turned her back
I'm making out with her mother like I'm in high school
And I don't sale crack to my African brothers
I sell it to they mothers and they ex-lovers
So go ahead bitch pop the X
So I can work your neck in the back of my Vett
Red bones, I hate 'em no question
I like fat bitches with bladder infections
Bizzare get down from strokers to Magic City
It's the creep show, show your nasty titties
