I went over to FYE today at the mall since I am a "Backstage Pass" member as well as having hundreds of dollars in store credit to see if they had the new Scissor Sisters DVD that came out today, and the manager went on a "we won't carry Scissor Sisters until they apologize for their comments". A year ago or so, Jake Shears said in an interview that he refuses to shop at chain stores like FYE because he believes paying $20 for a CD is highway robbery. Wow, I just find that so funny and petty that they're boycotting them because of that. And I know it's all because SS is just a cult band in America who mainly only appeal to gay men and fans of campy pop music (on the other hand, they're huge in Europe and have #1 hits to their belt), I just know that if Justin Timberlake or Kanye West had made the same comment, that there would be no chainwide boycott of their releases because they make too much money, whereas Scissor Sisters might only sell a couple hundred thousand copies at best.

I swear, big corporations can be so petty. I see nothing wrong with a singer coming out and saying that he believes $20 for a cd is way too expensive, and to boycott them chainwide is absolutely petty.

And they hoped to accomplish what by acting like a 10 year old?? Lose customers I guess. That store is too expensive anyway.

this just in. FYE announces a chainwide boycott of anything that bears the word "Dawsongirl" on it. :lol:

Well I must say I like the scissor sisters already. I agree 100% about paying $20 for a CD. Honestly tho, who buys things there when you can get it way cheaper elsewhere?

Yay! I'm famous!

Has he not seen those box sets that cost like 50 plus? :lol:

I agree that 20$ for a CD is a lot of money, but that's just stupid. Luckily I never go there. :lol:

$20 for a CD. ohno:

And then the big wigs have the nerve to bitch when people decide to download.
