Scissor Sister Jake Shears promised fans Duran Duran would deliver a ‘f**king spectacular’ show and he wasn’t wrong.
Shears, 44, currently performing as a solo artist was one of two warm-up acts for Duran Duran at Leeds First Direct Arena - alongside Lia Lia. The ever-enthusiastic Shears told the venue, practically full by the time he took to the stage, how sentimental it is for him to support the 80s legends on tour.
As around 20-years-ago, his band Scissor Sisters, where Shears found global fame alongside Ana Matronic, were invited to support Duran Duran. On Thursday evening, Shears wasn’t shy about airing those Scissor Sisters classics during his 10-song mid-evening slot.
