Cobra Starship Picspam of Fucking Doom (1/4)

Oct 04, 2007 13:53

I adore the Cobras. Everyone should adore the Cobras. So this is the Cobra Starship Picspam of Fucking Doom, hoping to make everyone love the Cobras. All of them. Because they just want to make you dance tonight.







This is Alex Suarez.



You may know him as the bassist of Cobra Starship.



While that's his day job, at night he becomes a pokemon.



Well. Except for when he becomes a giant half-living statue.



He's kind of adorable.



And a giant dork.



How can you not like that giggling face?







He's in it for you!









He plays Guitar Hero! Also, note the LEGOLAS STAND-UP IN THE CORNER.



He's a bit confused how to get home, though.



But that's all right, instead he gets to HUG KOALAS.





The teacup, okay? The teacup.



Yay, extras!









To sum up: Dork who plays bass. What more could you want?



This is Ryland Blackinton. He has a very nice camera.



He plays guitar for Cobra Starship.



And, just like his good friend Alex, a giant fucking dork.



That's okay, we love that about him.





There are a lot of pictures out there of Ryland sleeping. I consider this a very, very good thing. Aw.





How much do I love that he actually wears the camera, like you should? So much.





Oh, the giant-ass beard. Seriously, that's a beard like my dad has. Only less grey. It's a bit disturbing.



Camera. Hoodie. Self-portrait in mirror. Fremont Street. Not looking at the self-portrait. The real question is, what don't I love about this picture?







The TIE, man. The TIE.







I can't remember the name of that instrument (though if you said it, I would go "yes, that!"), but dude, how much do I love that he's playing it? God, so much.



He is also Captain Ahab.





KEYBOARD.



God this picture is gorgeous. Just the colour tones alone... and I'll stop before I start talking photography.



On Cobra Starship's Myspace, this picture is captioned as "Man, I wish Justin Timberlake would just call me back already!", which I think just says it all, really. Though Gabe might be projecting. Just a little.







He is reading book in a rowboat. While wearing a sweater over a polo shirt. Oh, Ryland.



Yes, this is Ryland. Yes, his chest is shaved to look like a bra. Yes, this is from Cobra Starship's buzznet. Do we really want to know?







This is from the Clandestine fashion show. So I confess, it mostly just makes me stare at the clothes and go "...oh, Pete."







Delicious.



Alex and Ryland actually have their own, separate band together called This is Ivy League.

I kind of adore their music, actually. It's like lounge meets folk, all in one really, really catchy package. And oh look, animal hats! It's that Decaydance influence.







I kind of like This is Ivy League a lot, actually. I mean, two guys, two guitars, and that's it.



Alex and Ryland were childhood friends, actually.





The story on their website is kind of sweet.



Alex and Ryland met in 1997 in High School. Both were avid guitar players and both played in local bands with varying degrees of accolade. Alex got Ryland a job waiting tables at "Mr. Deli's Jewish Delicatessan," in Boca Raton, Florida. A few years later, Alex went off to pursue a degree in the culinary arts while Ryland procured his BFA in Acting. The two lost touch for seven years. Ivy League formed in August of 2005 when Ryland discovered that his old friend Alex was not only still playing music but living just ten minutes away from him in Brooklyn, NY. The duo quickly began writing songs together. They hope you enjoy their music as much as they do.



If you live in Brooklyn, you should go see them tonight (10/4).





According to their Myspace, they have a show.



If you do go, I will be jealous like a jealous thing.

This is Nate Novarro.



He's the drummer for Cobra Starship.



He's kind of fantastic.



He throws horns for the cobra!



I... don't even know.



KISSY FACE.







He... likes lemons?



He's shocked that he doesn't get much attention in fandom.



So he'll just go back to figuring out the tip.









Wow, $24!







The HAIR. The STICKS. DUDE.







Awwwww.



He just wants you to go to part 2!
