Scissor Sisters become Megapussi in NYC

The Scissor Sisters have been playing a series of secret shows in New York to try out new material.

The twist? The band have adopted a number of pseudonyms to keep punters guessing. Among the names the outfit have used are Bridget Jones, Megapussi and Diarrhoea. Nice.

The gigs have all been at NYC's Mercury Lounge. The band slipped a few hits into their sets to appease the quick-to-twig fans.

DiScuss: 'Diarrhoea': appropriate?

I thought they had called themselves "Bridget Jones's Diarrhoea"?

yes you're spot on they did call themselves Bridget Jones' Diarrhoea last week... and last night they were Portion Control (which is in fact a REAL band's name)- supported by the AMAZING Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. I think a lot of people went to last night's show purely cos of CYHSY....

"we're you up all night thinking of that one, Peter?"
"nah, i got to sleep around 2, 2.30."

If they just called themselves Scissor Sisters, nobody would have showed up anyway.

I can't wait until the next huge charity event when they can turn up and plug the new single again.

Just listening to In This Home On Ice by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. It's okay, atmospheric pop-indie.

I've just discovered that a guy I went to school with, the year below me, is in the band. He has played keyboards with them since the beginning and apparently may become a full-on member. Well well well.

I remember two things about him:

1) He was prodigiously talented. He could take any instrument and learn it in a flash... he took up guitar and was a whizz almost straight away.

2) Perhaps due to the above, he was utterly utterly full of himself. Still, see where self-belief gets you.

He's also the son of one of the Goodies.

The Scissor Sisters are over-rated. Frankly the vocals resemble a cat being strangulated, backed by Elt's old 1970's cast off's. Please go away along with other novelty acts the darkness.

why would they call themselves that... i mean why would they change their name??

Re: Scissor Sisters become Megapussi in NYC

Scissor Sisters are a one trick (over gay) pony. Their second album will get nowhere and they'll be forgotten. Just like the Darkness... hopefully.

Reminds me of a trip to Amsterdam where we say Clits supported by Bitch cock. Lovely.
