I saw Peaches a few years ago on one of those electroclash tours. She came out wearing a long, blond wig & stripper heels, and the crowd, somewhat nonplussed, not for sure it was her, went into paroxysms when midway through a synth intro line she ripped off the wig & shook out her brown curls with a sneer.
Peaches is not a show to be missed. Plus former LA Metblogs author & Buddyhead creator Travis Keller will be DJing there.
Wanna win tickets? Don’t be shy. Tell me your favorite Peaches lyric in the comments. And if they don’t get past our obscenity filters, I’ll make sure to unmoderate them so you all can see those nasty, nasty lyrics.
Info on the show is here. FYI, she plays two shows: one on the 6th, a 2nd on the 7th. These tickets are for the second date, Sunday.
I would *love* to win these tickets. I saw Peaches in Boston a few years ago and it was a great show. So here’s my submission:
From “Boys Wanna Be Her”
the way you rock
non stop
girls, you’ve got chops
flip flop
she bop
self taught
your licks are hot
And just because I can’t do just one set, there’s this from “I U She”
I don’t have to make the choice, I like girls and I like boys. (Repeat)
From Casanova
Am I brink of the brawn
Just come on strong
I don’t take long
He’s so well on
I got the strap on and gin
And if he calls us lesbian
Just slip it in
I like the innocent type
Deer in the headlight
Rocking me all night
Flexing his might
Doing it right
Keeping me tight
Taking a bite out of the peach tonight
No no no baby, I ain’t carrying mace
Did you just feel something spraying your face?
Thumbs up fingers out
Pull back, pull back
I love her little Chrissie Hynde pun in “Eff the Pain Away”: “Check out my Chrissie behind, it’s fine all the time.” It’s witty. However, her duet with Iggy Pop, “Kick It” was an instant classic with lines like: “Some people don’t like my crotch!” Love, the self-depreciating humor.
