Rock The Shocker

"Cuz I wanna take you downtown," sings Peaches in her first single from the album Impeach My Bush. And she definitely took us downtown with her show last night at the Paradise Rock in Boston.

Our tickets indicated 7 p.m. as the time when doors opened for the long-waited Peaches performance. Yet we were not allowed in before 9:30 p.m. Opening for Peaches was the London beatmaker Drums of Death wearing intense black and white make-up. By the time he started playing, the public was ready to rock on and welcomed his electro-pop mixes.

It wasn't until sometime after 10 p.m. when Merrill Beth Nisker got on stage. But what an appearance that was. Dancing on top of the stereo equipment and jumping on and off the stage, she infected the whole crowd with her energy. Peaches changed several times into insanely elaborate costumes.
