Dancing on the speakers, are you peaking with the tweakers, the bigots and the breeders on the scene? The night don’t last forever, so get your shit together. Open arms are never what they seem.

Plus weathergirl Amanda Lepore, Juliette Lewis, and 80,000 drunk English homos.

Scissor Sisters have just announced a 15-date U.S. tour. Plus two THREE stops in Canadia!

“This is Lester Zizmore, filling in for Frieda Blackburn, who’s in a K-hole.” Watch for the cameo by Jeff Stryker.

Rumors flew at yesterday’s Pier Dance that Kylie Minogue would be this year’s surprise performer (it was Ultra Nate), but Kylie was in the UK to guest at the Scissor Sisters concert in Glastonbury. It seems like Jake gets more buff every day. (Via – Towleroad)

All they actually pull it off pretty well!

Last night’s listening party for the upcoming third album by Scissor Sisters, Night Work, was a blast. In the house: Jake Shears, uberblogger Andy Towle, promoter Joe Fiore, and our own Father Tony. Plus lots of familiar faces and DJs from Manhattan nightlife. Big thanks to Fly-Life’s Martha and Carmen Cacciatore for putting it all together. As always, the slideshow …

Producer Stuart Price’s influence is quite evident on this, the first single from the upcoming third album by Scissor Sisters. Elton John meets The Killers’ Human. And that’s a very good thing. UPDATE: Video pulled for blah, blah, blah.

Here’s a track from the upcoming third Scissor Sisters album, Night Work. I really like this, especially the spoken word bit by Sir Ian McKellen. The first official single, Fire With Fire, will be released on June 20th. The album drops a week later.

The musical version of Armistead Maupin’s Tales Of The City will see its world premiere in San Francisco next summer. “Tales of the City,” a new musical adaptation of Armistead Maupin’s famed stories – created with veterans of “Avenue Q” and members of the rock band Scissor Sisters – will receive its world premiere in the American Conservatory Theater’s 2010-11 …

Scissor Sisters performed two nights at NYC’s Bowery Ballroom this week where they debuted their (rumored to be) new single Fire. I gotta say: Jake Shears is looking foine. Photos and set list are here.

Last night Dr. Jeff and I attended the B-52s release party for Funplex at Socialista and chatted a bit with Jake Shears, Fred Schneider, and Baby Daddy.
