We were already feeling nostalgic about last summer’s awesome European tour, so we dug out a selection of great pix from some of those shows. This is just the first batch mind you, so there will be more to come!

Many thanks to our friend Holger Talinski for the photos!

We had visitors from all over Europe coming to see the show, and we’ve had countless mails from fans lamenting the fact that they couldn’t be in Berlin to see it. Luckily, for those who missed it, we’ve got bucket-loads of pics for you to feast yer eyes on!

For a start, check out these fantastic shots taken by Berlin based photographers Lynn Lauterbach and Steffi Loos.

Its going to be a very, Very, VERY special night tonight in Berlin, as the much anticipated Ten Year Anniversary Epic Electro-Rock Opera PEACHES DOES HERSELF premieres at the Hebbel Theater!!!

The crew moved into the theater late last week to start setting the stage and squeeze in a few last runs of the show before Thursday’s performance. There’s activity in every little corner of the building!!

Here’s your second little peek at the production!!

The team are gathered in the studio as we speak; the choreographers, dancers, designers, directors, technicians, and of course the band – and they’re gonna be hard at work for another week of scheduled rehearsals!

Here’s a little intro we shot during the first days of rehearsing. We’ve got more coming up soon!

You might recognize some of the wild bunch from previous posts here on the blog, like the fabulous Danni Daniels, who you might have seen recently dancing in a Peaches show!

Mignon, who’s set to release her new album ‘Kiss of Death‘, was also attendance! She recently performed as the fake Peaches in the Peaches Wheelchair Show this past summer. Check out her website.

Mad Kate is a performance artist/singer who is a member of the circus collective art-rock band Bonaparte and the cabaret punk act Kamikaze Queens.  See link for more info!

And last but not least, Drag Queen DJ Anita Drink joined the gang for some antics before her set later on in the night. Click here for more Anita Drink!

That’s right folks, its the 10 Year Anniversary of Peaches debut album “The Teaches of Peaches”!! and to celebrate Peaches has decided to create an entire OPERA centered around her four albums Teaches of Peaches, Fatherfucker, Impeach My Bush and I Feel Cream.

In recent years the Jukebox musical has become very popular; where the musical works of an artist are put to a fictional subject. Peaches calls this extravaganza the ‘Anti Jukebox musical’. She has created an absurd themed Opera (there will be no dialogue besides the songs themselves) that will represent her work and her concerns about gender, beauty and age.
Expect big dance numbers, odes to favorite past musicals and fantastic surprise guests.

Peaches: “I want it to be a fantastical musical that broadway would never be able to present.”

Stay tuned on the blog for some behind-the-scenes goodies from the making of Peaches Does Herself!

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!!!

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!
