“Let’s go COBO” will have a run time targeted at 90 minutes.

The content language and images will be controlled for an MPAA rating goal of PG13. The majority of the film will consist of interviews and original visual content along with a variety of local bands and musicians providing the soundtrack.


The main story focus will be the musician and fan experiences at COBO, the cultural and athletic events hosted within the venue and the live music albums that were recorded there. A small amount of historic, public domain and fair use footage will be used to complete the story. Our goal is simply to remind those who were there, inform those who were not and entertain everyone.


We as producers of this long-term project are passionate about the subject. We feel privileged for any and all opportunities afforded by those who wish to participate and contribute content.


“Let’s go COBO” will tour major film festivals across the nation accompanied by an extensive marketing campaign.
