Gabe Saporta Doesn’t Usually Suck At Singing

Gabe Saporta of Cobra Starship apologizes for sucking at singing. After the bands performance on Conan O’Brien (above) he felt he needed to explain the whole reason behind his sucking. Says Gabe,

“What fucked me the most is that (guitarist) Ryland usually gives me the first chord before the song starts so i can hear the pitch. but we didn’t get to do that and i came in blind and went sharp.”

yeah, well, fuck that shit. every time i saw clips of these assclowns playing live on mtv, that dude was singing WAY off key. in fact, the mistake he’s apologizing for isn’t even as bad as the regular live clips i saw. this band is embarassing…damn you fall out boy!

Excuses

he had plenty of time throughout the song to get back on key, he just sucks.

Why draw attention to it and then make excuses. it’s rock n roll, if you sing off key, it’s because that’s how you felt.

Um, why did you adress it like that? I doubt he’ll ever actually read these comments. But back on the subject, It sounds like an OK excuse to mt. I haven’t seen any other clips of them live, so I can’t say if this is a common thing. I think Cobra Staship is alright. They can be kinda irritating though.

Cobra Starship stopped being relevant when Snakes On A Plane bombed in the box office. Why the fuck are they still around?

Gabe Saporta and any other person associated with Fall Out Boy sucks.

[…] It’s hard to believe that these 60s-tinged, elitist-attracting songs come from contributing members of that Warped Tour staple. I’m not complaining, it’s just weird. It almost makes me like them more, whereas I’d say it makes most people like them less. Just for reference, these guys don’t suck at singing, like CS frontman Gabe Saporta occasionally does. […]
