This past Saturday night, a packed Theatre at Madison Square Garden rocked to the beat of one of the most energetic, and definitely gayest music groups I've ever seen perform -
Scissor Sisters.
I wouldn't have expected less from a band named after a lesbian sex position!
It was refreshing to hear good vocals, combined with a passion for what they do so well - perform & entertain packed venues. They started in 2001 and from the last time I saw them play at Bowery Ballroom, this band has definitely grown up! You may have caught their latest
video of "I Don't Feel Like Dancin'" on Logo, or even read or seen them in
"Out Magazine's list of Top 100 gay and lesbian success stories of 2006".
In any case, if you have never heard them, or of them - do yourself a favor, and run, don't walk, to your nearest
CD store. And maybe soon we can start a petition for them to return to their original name -
Dead Lesbian and the Fibrillating Scissor Sisters.
