THIS CONTEST HAS ENDED. Thanks for downloading “Skeleton’s!”
Starting today, and only through February 5th, you can download “Skeletons” for free on Hard Rock Cafe Chicago’s Facebook page
In doing so, your download will count as one vote for The Scissors in Hard Rock Rising, a global competition for cash and prizes (we need a van!), and a chance to play at Hard Rock Calling in London.
We hope you like the song enough to tell others how to get it too – we need all the votes we can get! It will not be available for download after February 5th, so please grab it today!
Thanks for all of your continued support.
-The Scissors

Join us for a concert that will boost your holiday cheer into overdrive. NOISE FOR TOYS will feature your favorite local Chicago acts pulling out all the stops to get you out of your seasonal depression and aid local charities in the process.
Bring a packaged toy to be donated to Chicago children in need this season and receive *HALF OFF* admission. That’s right. Spend half the money you would be spending to see this show on a toy and we will reward you for it (so will your conscience). Monetary proceeds will also go to help various Chicago-based children’s charities.
@ BEAT KITCHEN – December 16th 2011
NOISE FOR TOYS will feature :
Special TBA Headliner
Archie Powell & The Exports
The Noise FM
The Scissors
Doors: 8:30 | Music: 9:00

The Brauerhouse burned down in 2008 leaving a huge void in the suburbs for live music. Brauerhouse was home for The Scissors and a wide variety of punk/rock/metal/ska and rap acts. We’ve been waiting to hear if Steve would rebuild.
Brauerhouse Lombard opened a few months ago and The Scissors are returning on June 24th with The Shakes. It’s going to be one hell of a night. Don’t miss it.
