So apparently Matt Skiba completely fucking blew his first show with Matt Skiba And The Sekrets in Chicago last night. From the reports we’re seeing from fans he couldn’t even get through the band’s first single “Voices,” even after attempting it multiple times, forgetting lyrics and singing totally off key all night.
I almost didn’t believe the reports until I watched this video from the performance and saw it for myself. Wow.
Some fans were reporting that he was too intoxicated or fucked up on drugs to sing but he claims to have been “pretty sober”.
I’ve never seen anything like this. Amazing. Skiba has been profusely apologizing all day via Twitter:
“I was pretty sober just couldn’t sing…killed my mojo. I’ll do my best to make it up to everyone.”
“Sorry to all who came to the Metro tonight and felt let down. It won’t happen again….thank you all.”
“I was nervous and had no voice. Terrible excuse but it’s the truth”
“Thanks for all the love. xo M so sorry to those I disappointed…I truly am. I would’t have a job without you. Thank you!”
