Scissor Sisters at DAR Constitution Hall

Scissor Sisters

Scissor Sisters, the gay, glam-rock band, cheekily named after a lesbian sex act, shimmers all throughout its new all-dance album Night Work. Filled with passion and a strong sense of revelry, this is the band at its best, living up to its full potential. The pseudonymous Sisters — Jake Shears, Babydaddy, Ana Matronic and Del Marquis — succeed here in a way they hadn’t before. The third time is definitely a charm. Will the concert to support it be the best yet from this always-great live band, too? Chances are very, very good. Monday, Aug. 23. Doors at 7 p.m. D.A.R. Constitution Hall, 1776 D St. NW. Tickets are $40. Call 202-628-1776 or visit dar.org/conthall.
