prussell716 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Great Picture with Jake BangBangLou!! Agree that he is absolutely the sweetest And don't feel bad koolj - we can't do them all... they have extended the run of Tales again (the 3rd extension - very good sign!!) - now through July 31st... so maybe you'll get a chance to go And the half sold Baltimore show was a shame - poorly advertised... I brought a big group of people to the show and did what I could to get the word out - just a shame because I doubt that they'll come back to Baltimore - grrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prussell716 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 so... back from the UK... a trip planned around the House of Rufus event at the Royal Opera House in London... I got the added bonus of 2 Scissor Sister shows book-ending my trip The Sisters headlined for 2 music Festivals that I was able to make- Lovebox in London July 17th and Splendour in Nottingham July 24th. Lovebox was a sloppy mess - rain leading up to and on the day of the show (it was a 3 day festival - last night featuring the Scissor Sisters on "Gay Day"). Luckily the skies cleared by the time Blondie (the set preceding the Sisters) came out. Blondie actually put on a great set - was impressed with Debbie's energy and the way she worked the crowd. The Scissor Sisters set was brief - about an hour... but, as usual, full of energy. The highlight - hands down - was bringing Beth Ditto on (Beth was the act before Blondie) for Tits on the Radio - she rocked the vocals - Ana and Jake were pretty giddy to have her join. Splendour was the last day of my trip - and the weather was gorgeous. I'm not really a fan of music festivals... again Blondie was the act preceding Jake and the gang. I'm used to being up front for the Sisters... but was with a group that are 'less obsessive' than myself .. so arrived in time for Blondie... and was able to get about 3 deep from the stage - which wasn't too bad. Blondie again wowed the crowd (it was her 66th birthday!). The Sisters did a longer set for this show... about an hour and a half It was a big crowd - over 20000 - there to primarily see the SS... I'm not used to an audience as big as love loving my Sisters - so it was really cool to witness. Ana spotted me... and after that song apologized to the crowd and asked people to move and let me up to the front/center next to some very nice UK VIP fans... and introduced me to the crowd etc. A very cool moment... I love those guys I have the set list for that show... Night Work Any Which Way Laura Tits Harder You Get Running Out Take Your Mama Out Kiss You Off Fire With Fire (dedicated to Amy Winehouse - told us to hug our friends and sing with them) Skin this Cat Comfortably Numb Paul McCartney Filthy Gorgeous Encore: I Don't Feel Like Dancin' Invisible Light Rufus and family, Jake and Ana and the Sisters - don't think I'll ever be able to top this week. Here are a couple pictures from the 2 Scissor Sister shows Lovebox & Splendour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinghorse83 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 so cool to hear about, guys- sounded like you had a blast! I'd love to see the scissor sisters live one day .. I guess I have to live vicariously through you lot until then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not used to an audience as big as love loving my Sisters - so it was really cool to witness. yeah, guess you haven't seen them in the bay area... i would actually love to make it to the front or have some room further back for once... Ana spotted me... and after that song apologized to the crowd and asked people to move and let me up to the front/center next to some very nice UK VIP fans... and introduced me to the crowd etc. A very cool moment... wow, that is really cool! i bet your friends were impressed along with the rest of the people there... wish i could see this moment on a video! I have the set list for that show...

(picky fan ) Rufus and family, Jake and Ana and the Sisters - don't think I'll ever be able to top this week. no, you won't and neither will the rest of us... it sounds like a week out of a dream... i'm really happy for you and very excited to hear about it all! thanks for the pics, too, i liked the colorful outfits (better than the silver and gold of other shows) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prussell716 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 how do you like invisible light as last song? i wished it was a little earlier... (picky fan ) Well... I love Invisible Light... and it's dramatic they way Jake and Ana exit and return with the altered costumes... I can see why it is the last song... If I were doing the set list though... I would make Invisible Light the last song before the encore... and Filthy Gorgeous the last song... That's my favorite one for them to close with... with Jake flashing the audience as he exits of course - lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly my taste... but the more I listened.. the more obsessed I became. Maybe I'm just biased and would lap up anything by Jake... but I think it's ridic... am I alone?

Shears tweeted on October 31, 2011 that the album is in its final stages. On December 25, 2011, the band announced via Facebook, that a song from the new album titled "Shady Love" would debut on January 2, 2012. The song debuted on Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1 show on January 2, 2012 and features vocals from Azealia Banks under the pseudonym Krystal Pepsy.

I hope!!! uggh. all of their shows are expensive, too... lately i've been happy just seeing local bands which isn't as hard on the wallet... rufus usually does at least 2 shows in the bay area so at least it will be close, SS will do one, but not to forget Mika!!! i really want to see him twice so i'll have to travel... really excited for all these new albums though!!!

crazyaboutmika Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I really like that song a lot I can't wait for the rest of the new album The vid is a typical Scissor's sisters vid, no my cup of tea, but what I really love is their songs and sound so I hope there will be some I really love as in their two previous albums I don't know if you guys agree with that but there are some I don't care for and some I really love in each of their albums , although in Night Works I really like all of them and can never get enough of some ...
