Scissor Sisters for Dublin

The very wonderful Scissor Sisters pay a - by their standards - intimate visit on October 1 to the Dublin Olympia. Tickets priced €32.90 go on sale on Friday May 25.

Having dispatched Olaf Tyaransen to see them last week in London – watch out for Mr. T’s most entertaining chat with Jake Shears – we can report that the New Yorkers are in the rudest of health.

Much of that has to do with Only The Horses, a peach of an album that was co-produced by Calvin Harris and features input from Pharrell Williams, Diplo, Alex Rihda and hip hop woman of the moment, Azealia Banks.
