Did we need another Elton John? Apparently so. With Scissor Sisters, we get the five bad children of the Rocket Man, who play keyboards with both a bang and a flounce, and write catchy dance tunes that seize your butt and bounce it across the floor. How can it be that this country, which soundly rejected gay marriage, has made a raging hit of “Take Your Mama Out,” a song about taking your wife to a dance club to out yourself as a homosexual? Then again, America loved Elton’s “Philadelphia Freedom.” The Quest, 110 N. Fifth St., Minneapolis; 612-338-3383; www.thequestclub.com
