Hey friends. I hope you have a minute to join me at the Loose Cobra this Sunday for a rare matinee show featuring Stiff Slack recording artists Self-Evident from Minneapolis with special guests Congratulations from Tokyo, Japan. We'll start this one off at a soft 5:00, I'll make some strawberry margs, and we'll have a grand time AND be home and in bed by 9:30! Please bring a $10-spot (or more?) for the glowing orange bucket. (Somewhere in here is a joke about gas money to Tokyo, etc.) Cheers, all.

More Info Coming Soon!

Need some sweet Loose Cobra gear?

Hey, just because we’re into Black Sabbath, Willie Nelson, and Rush doesn’t mean we can’t like sports too!

Our tournament quality steel-tipped dart area is one of the best (THE best?) around. I wouldn’t call us a sports bar per se, but the Cobra is a comfy place to take in a ball game, watch the Masters, or fritter away a Sunday afternoon with a homemade Bloody Mary and some NFL.

While Rush plays in the background, of course.

Want to reserve a TV for a specific game? Contact me and I’ll make it happen!
