Scissor Sisters
 Scissor Sisterz
Lead vocals were stunningly delivered by Matt Walker, as golden boy Jake Shears. His stage presence and ability to hit and keep the high notes certainly caught both the eye and ear of the crowd, and his costume proved that all that glitters is golden. He was ably supported by the astounding Charlotte Marsden, taking the role of mistress of ceremonies Ana Matronic. Her powerful vocals on numbers such as Nine Til Five and her ability to work the crowd between numbers are just two of the talents she clearly relishes demonstrating, as she provided the spine to the band. The three musicians - keyboard player Steven Thomas as Baby Daddy, guitarist Martin Reid as Del Marquis and Richard Laws on drums as Paddy Boom - brought the music to life without ever trying to share the limelight with the vocalist and dancers. Although theirs was a professional job, I would have loved for them to have the opportunity to show off with individual solos. In addition to the band members, the crowd were entertained by GoGo dancers Sarah Magor and Darren Martyn. Their energetic, fast-moving and slick routines added to the dynamics of the evening, while their high kicks and splits moves should definitely not be tried at home. The Scissor Sisters may be one of the bands of the moment, but The Scissor SisterZ certainly know how to get the party started.
