Hi there:
After reading the Euro brokie accounts and the mentions that the scissor sisters were playing a free concert in London that day. I just wondered what those of you over the pond thought of the Scissor Sisters, or even if you had heard of them.
They have done really well in the UK and Europe. They had the best selling album of 2004 in the UK and there 2nd album and first single from that album have been at the top of the charts for weeks.
Despite their success in the UK (which they apparently refer to as their 'spiritual home') the band say they have had only a moderate impact at home (they are a NY based band) and that the record industry has pinholded them into a corner as a gay disco group at home and that they can’t break into the mainstream. (I’m paraphrasing here as I can't find the actual quote– but your get the jist).
So the question is, have your heard of them, do you like them etc etc. I believe they might have been on the US’s version of strictly come dancing recently? (think its called dancing with the stars?)
