    Thanks to a snow storm, had to wait 1 year to see a Peaches show again, now paid 35 euro for a ticket just to see YOU on a festival and this is what we get? No crowd walk and dip, no spitting, no costume changes, no Peaches show… but friends parade… o waw as a unique event showing your courage and creativity, but as a repeated one? You know, Peaches, YOU CAN SING, and so I hope that you’ll sing us one PCSS song, just one, and then I won’t mind paying too much and having to wait god knows how long before you tour Europe with PCSS. And please don’t take this the wrong way, I love your work and I hope your leg will recover soon!! But you don’t actually need your leg to SING!

July 18th, Lovebox Weekender Festival, London –

Peaches rolls into Victoria Park with her circus of freaky friends in tow, ready to rock the London Loveboxers with her historical ‘Wheelchair Show’; a raucous, hilarious, once-in-a-lifetime performance you definitely didn’t want to miss!

Since the show we’ve been flooded with mails from fans all over the globe asking when the footage is going to appear– and we’re glad to say it’s finally here!

Before we let you backstage to see the madness in the making, here’s a selection of what the press had to say about ‘The Wheelchair Show’–

“If Jones delivered in style, then electroclash dominatrix Peaches raised the bar earlier in the day with a superbly outrageous set. Appearing on stage with her leg in a cast, the singer was pushed around in a wheelchair by a naked Amazonian pre-op transsexual. “This is not a joke,” she assured the audience. “I couldn’t not come to Lovebox!” She didn’t disappoint as ‘Talk to Me,’ ‘Billionaire’ and ‘F— the Pain Away’ caused the sizeable crowd to dance despite the beating sun.”

www.spinnermusic.co.uk

“The defining moment of this year’s Lovebox – possibly, even, of any festival this year – comes about 10 minutes into Peaches’ Sunday afternoon set. It’s already got off to a colourful start. We’re greeted by the sight of the electro provocateur arriving on stage wearing a head-to-toe coat that appears to be made of raggedy fibres. This is soon dispensed with, and she cavorts in what resembles an S&M bra and panties kit, wearing some kind of gimp mask. So far, so odd. Then it gets really weird. This, it transpires, is not Peaches….
The real Peaches is wheeled on stage in a pink wheelchair with a throne attachment, leg in a plaster cast, and spends the rest of her set being pushed round the stage by a naked pre-operative transsexual, whose name might be Danny. Well, it’s certainly a talking point.”

For those of you who follow Peaches on Twitter or Facebook, you’ll know that last weekend, whilst performing at the Marés Vivas Festival 2010 in Portugal, Peaches screwed up her ankle big time at the beginning of her set… it was the giant leap from the drum riser in the mammoth ghillie suit that did it!!

Of course, in true Peaches style, she finished off the set (including crowd walking!!) without a whimper – with nothing but adrenaline to keep her goin!!

And the end result?

An ankle the size of a melon and a big bad-ass plaster cast around her right leg!

With the Lovebox Weekender in London just two days later, what was she going to do? There’s no way she could cancel!
Ingeniously, Peach got to work on putting together an exclusive set for the London Festival goers– a hilarious performance that will forever be known as ‘The Wheelchair Show’!!

We’ve got an exclusive Peaches Wheelchair Mini-doc coming up very soon, full of hilarious behind-the-scenes footage from the festival. But here’s a sneak preview to keep ya keen!

    First row ! And it was amazing ! I feel cream was one of my favorites,her voice was so beautiful! I saw her the night before at the lovebox afterparty with the cast and I asked her if she could be able to do the show and with a smile on her face ” Yeah yeah Im gonna do it ” ! And I still cant believe she did it!! And it was so great !! I think that says a lot about her! Not everybody could or would do that! A true artist and entertainer !
    Applause & Thanks to Peaches !
