Peaches At The Music Hall of Williamsburg: Gonna Whip This Party Into Shape

Peaches at The Music Hall of Williamsburg, 6.19.2009

Last month I had the delight of seeing Peaches for the first time at Webster Hall. That show was a topic of discussion for the weeks leading up to Friday night’s show which was luckily added to the ongoing tour as a make up date for Drums of Death missing his Webster Hall set after being stuck at US Customs.  We also chatted with DoD before showtime which can be read HERE.

We unfortunately had to endure the gag-worthy Naked Cowgirl yet again until being saved by Drums of Death’s delivery of his dubstep-rock-electronic brand of music (or as he calls it Electronic Gospel / Soul Rave.)

DoD got the party started on the right foot, warming up the crowd for what would be another sweaty and hot night with none other than Peaches shifting gears behind the wheel.

Peaches took the stage a little before 11 PM playing an almost identical 27-song set as the one she blasted through Webster Hall. Seeing the show at Webster Hall and then the translated version to the much the smaller stage at MHoW brought on some constraints but nonetheless the show was on point and on key.

Surprisingly the crowd Friday was younger, mostly male and seemingly less rowdy minus our front section that screamed along and pumped fists in Peaches direction. It was quite the scene.

For some reason, this set cut off 2 of our favorites from the original set Relax and Take You On in place of  2 songs from Sweet Machine. Overall the show did not disappoint, but the fans in the crowd were kind of lame. The ultimate highlight for me at the show was her trilogy of crowd surfing, the most badass during Hit it Hard when she was being held upright by the crowd.

We had to limit the amount of pictures posted, but to view more of our pictures from the epic gig, click HERE!
