The Police Files are an authentic recreation of the sound and energy of The Police; the most musically influential and commercially successful Rock band of the 1980's. Jim Keneally on bass, Ira Seigel on guitar, and Mike Marble on drums have applied their notable talents to what at first was an enjoyable experiment but has become an outright homage to The Police. Their musicianship has taken them to national and international stages... the orchestra pits of Broadway shows and recording studios with some of the industry's most well-known artists. For this project they have harnessed the particular skill sets needed to recapture those of Sting, Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland, whose last tour a few years ago grossed over $300 million in ticket sales alone. Come experience The Police Files and you'll remember why you, and millions of others, loved that unique, energetic, thoughtful sound of The Police.

Your mission: Have a good time
with Cobert Operations, featuring 5-time Grammy Nominee, Jon Cobert
Pop/Soft Rock
12 Grapes Music & Wine Bar
12 North Division Street
Peekskill, NY   See Map
Cobert Operations has been spied in and around the Hudson Valley on several occasions, and this is their 2nd assignment at 12 Grapes. Their mission is to deploy an eclectic mix of covers by The Band, Leon Russell, Early Stones, Beatles, Professor Longhair and some originals. Intelligence has it that these guys are high-level pros...

The Cobert Operations team includes Jon Cobert -- operations director; Peter Calo -- laser expert; Stu Woods -- low end crowd control; Rob Wallis -- social director; Tim Ouimette -- trumpet and roof repairs; Mark Fineberg - saxophone and roof work (they expect to blow the roof off the joint).

Special activities will be conducted throughout the night. These activities include dancing, shouting "whoo-hoo" and having a general good time. Secret handshakes are also an option.

The team will self-destruct after the show and 12 Grapes will once again disavow all knowledge of their appearance here.
