A Call for Suggestions

Toronto, March 2004 --

Due to a fortuitous turn of events, snakes of improvisation, IRON COBRA, have found themselves with access to plenty of clean and clear studio recording time.

Since these sessions have no audience save the lovely James "Textbook" Hodgkinson in the booth, the Cobra is currently seeking suggestions. Try as they might, the duo has found Mr. Textbook awfully reluctant to provide said material. So, while they attempt further coersion, suggestions are being requested by email from internet strangers. That could be you!

Pre-studio recordings can be found here.
Suggestions can me mailed here.

note: IRON COBRA has recently been working from starting points of relationships and situations as opposed to, say, "cheese cloth" or "Seinfeld." But, as beggars can't be choosers, all suggestions are welcome.

catch23 All-Star Rock Line-up

IRON COBRA!
(you know whom)

The Distractions!
(Levi MacDougall, Tim Polley & Paul Schuck)

The Remainders!
(Katie Crown & Ryan V. Hays)

That's right, the famous Distractions will be joining us and The Remainders (freshly back from their recent tour of Europe) to create a show that sounds eerily like and indie rock hipster night.

Coincidence or manipulative marketing?

You decide.

Also, the show will be hosted by the languid and luxurious Brendan Gall.

IRON COBRA on UMFM (Winnipeg)

Berlin/Toronto/Winnpeg, March 2004 --

This just in.

It has come to the attention of Iron Cobra (through a communique early this morning from Berlin) that some of their "little skits" have been aired on the CRUMBS Radio Hour on UMFM in Winnipeg.

The Broadcasts have transpired over the past couple of weeks and are expected to repeat on the station during the CRUMBS sojourn in Europe over the next month.

If you or any of your friends live in the Winnipeg area and are either unable or unwilling to listen to said "skits" on the internet, this may be a good opportunity for you. Not only will you have the chance to hear some Cobra, you will also discover a show wherein you can call weekly and talk to two guys about (really) whatever the dickens you want.

The CRUMBS Comedy Hour
Every Monday noon - 1:00pm (Central Standard Time)
UMFM 101.5
streaming on the internet at UMFM.com

catch23 once more. Booooring!

The mighty COBRA will be taking the stage at catch23 improv once again.

This time the sting will be felt by challengers Robot Mafia (Julie Dumais, Ryan V. Hays & Kurt Smeaton) and the Ryerson Improv Society (a bunch of folks from Ryerson Polytechnic University).
