Being an out-of-towner, II was not aware of the Cobalt's past and "edgy" reputation, as one co-worker put it. Great room for music, and the mix of people - rare these days - was great. (Though we have become used to being the oldest people at shows, in hostels and on buses.)<br />And bravo for E, especially as the rains come.paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11003637352818760817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-23250809507102413612016-10-16T17:02:48.343-07:002016-10-16T17:02:48.343-07:00The Cobalt does, indeed, still stand eaf.
