This week Peaches and Sweet Machine are holed up in an industrial hanger out in west Berlin, having regrouped with all the gear they’ll need for this weekend’s LIVE LASER SHOW at the BERLIN FESTIVAL!!

Technically speaking, a midi-Laser Show is no mean feat! So the gang are hard at work right now; programming, choreographing and rehearsing intensely for the show.

Here’s what the Berlin Festival site has to say about it:

“Now she discovered laser for herself, and from now on stage performances will never be the same again. Instruments and tool are totally yesterday’s news. By disrupting various laser beams, Peaches creates electronic soundscapes, and adds even a little coreography to her performance that should definitely not be missed. No wonder, she’s a special guest on BNR stage at Berlin Festival this year in order to celebrate “1o Years of Teaches of Peaches.”

Dont miss the Laser show on the BNR stage at 00:30 on 11th September.

Here’s a little compilation of Laser shots we put together in anticipation of Saturday’s big show. Enjoy!

Fri 20th August 2010 -

Peaches and crew roll through the wonderful town of Lausanne, Switzerland on their way to the ‘For Noise Festival’, anticipating the very final wheelchair-bound set of the tour!!

A miraculous thing happened in Lausanne – it must have had something to do with the swelling up of powerful psychic energies in that little Swiss valley, or the sheer potency of humanity gathered before that little stage – whatever the reason, Peaches cast off those weighty bandages and walked again; healed!!!

Witnesses described the scene – telling of a shadow that passed across the stage and lifted the bandages from the leg.

Yet not long after the recovery a cruel twist of fate befell The Fake Peaches: leaping from the drum riser (sound familiar?) and not quite getting her footing right, she ended the show in the chair, after suffering serious damage to the ligaments in her right leg.

Doctors say it’ll take another six weeks before she can walk again.

Anyhow, enough preamble, lets see The Final Wheelchair Show!!!

Fresh from a GWAR concert in Berlin on 18th August, with blood-stained skin and hair, Peaches and Sweet Machine boarded the bus for the last run of the wheelchair show!!

Two final dates at the Frequency Festival, Austria and Lausanne Noise Festival, Switzerland brought an incredible 18 months of touring to an end!!!

Before we show you the magical grand finale of the wheelchair show, here’s a little peek behind the scenes of the last days of tour! Hold on for some great live footage!!

A handful of DJ gigs coming up across Europe next week, starting on Wednesday 1st in Venice, where Peaches will play the opening party of the Venice International Short Film Festival!

Following that: 2nd September @ Paradiso, Amsterdam, 3rd @ Bahnhof Ehrenfeld, Cologne, 4th @ La Machine de Moulin Rouge, Paris and finally on 23rd @ Razzmattaz in Barcelona.

We got creative with some youtube clips we found and erm… borrowed, of Peaches DJ’ing in various places around the globe. Check it out!

Coming up soon:

Peaches has been invited to DJ at the opening party of Circuito Off Venice International Short Film Festival at Lido’s Blue Moon Beach, just in front of the Adriatic Sea, on the 1st September.

Visitors there can check out a special screening of ‘Cowboys and Communists’ – a documentary film about Berlin’s ‘White Trash Fast Food‘ Club, who are the organizers of the opening event. Our Peaches even shows up in the film too!

Circuito Off Revolution, is the title for the 11th Edition of the Festival. For more info check out the website or facebook page.

Here’s a little teaser from Jess Feast’s ‘Cowboys and Communists’!

At long last we bring you Peaches starring as ‘Marsha Thirteen’ in Chilly Gonzales’ feature length film ‘Ivory Tower’!

Check out this little teaser released on Boys Noize Records’ blog.

It’s festival season and Peaches is heading down to Switzerland and Austria for two more festival slots at the Frequency Festival on the 19th and the Lausanne Noise Festival on the 20th.

To keep up the festival vibe, we’re taking a trip back to the beginning of the year, when Peaches was hitting up all the major cities in Australia on the Big Day Out lineup.

Here’s a peek behind the scenes of the Gold Coast gig on 17th January. We’ve got more footage from Oz coming up in the next few weeks, so stay tuned!

Peaches is back on the road today! Heading off to Hungary, Belgium, Switzerland and Austria for a quick tour of the European summer festivals.

Pretty soon she be rolling onstage in Budapest for another special performance in the chair, with the fabulous danni-the- tranny-nurse behind the wheels for some assistance!

Last week Peaches was at the Sonnemondsterne Festival in Saalburg, Germany and PeachesTV was on site to capture some of the madness on film!

Peaches will be hitting the big screen soon, starring as “Marsha Thirteen”  in Chilly Gonzales’ first full-length feature film ‘Ivory Tower’, alongside Gonzales and Tiga Sontag. Directed by Adam Traynor, the film is an “existentialist sports comedy about chess and success”.

Gonzales plays the inventor of “jazz chess”, brilliantly flanked by a charmingly villainous Tiga as his brother, and the inimitable Peaches as their love interest.

The film was selected for competition at the Locarno Film Festival on August 11th, 2010.

Catch a sneak preview of Ivory Tower in the following cities:

London: August 26 @ Screen On the Green
Paris: September 12-13 & September 19-20 @ Cine 13

So, earlier in the week Peaches visited the doc to see what’s goin’ on with the ankle and to get the limited-edition Grace Jones Signature Cast removed from the leg… and, well, if you’ve had a peek at Peaches’ Facebook profile recently, you may already know the story…

“The wheelchair show continues all summer long!!!!!”
