Longturn Presents: Cobra Closing Party

Cobra | Bloomfield | Ages 21+

On Saturday March 28th, we dance one last time. After 3.5 years of Saturday nights at Cobra, The Night Shift clocks out for good. What started as a simple idea, a dance floor for people with day jobs, became something none of us could have predicted: a family, a home, a weekly ritual built on good people and good music. For the closing party we have the head chef of Cobra making his Longturn debut, Bamboo. He's been a massive part of the space and community since day 1 so it's very fitting to have him play the last event. Joining him will be Jellyfish's Ricky Mawzlin, a regular in the space and organizer of one of Pittsburgh's top queer parties. Following him will be Todd Keebs, a staple in the Pittsburgh scene a big contributor to Cobra's lighting set up. Lastly, Hon Jao comes in from DC to feature his sultry live violin strings and join our very own Koopmusik for one last dance in the Void Soundsystem as we shed our final tears on Cobra's dance floor together. 

The lineup for The Last Dance honors the full spectrum of Pittsburgh & Cobra's underground, the sounds, and the people who made this what it is. To everyone who came early, stayed late, and danced hard with us over the years: thank you. Every smile on that dance floor meant everything. This isn't the end of Longturn, just the end of this chapter. Consider this the last call. So let's send it off the only way we know how.

Consider this your standing invite. Clock into the weekend: Cobra Lounge, every Friday and Saturday in March.

Longturn Music welcomes everybody and has a zero-tolerance policy for harassment, unwelcome physical contact, or any brand of bigoted behavior. If anyone at a Longturn event is making you feel uncomfortable or unsafe, or if you witness anything of the sort, we encourage you to speak with the door staff or our team members. We'll believe you, and we'll help.

In the era when America's Rust Belt got its name, factory workers labored on a 12-hour day or night shift for two weeks straight. To switch shifts, one group would have to work 24-hours straight and cover the labor gap. This grueling shift became known as the Longturn.

Longturn music was founded to give people with day jobs a space to spend their second shift. No bottle service, no passwords, just a dance floor filled with good people and good music.

Come early, stay late, dance hard ⚒️
