The Brightside Music & Event Venue

After years of booking shows, there was really only one name we’ve been waiting to use: Mitchapalooza!
Longtime Dayton music promoter Venus Child Productions has a husband named Mitch. If you’ve seen Old School, you probably understand why the name Mitchapalooza has been floating around for years.
On Friday, September 11, we’re finally putting the name to good use with a night of live music at The Brightside featuring a killer mix of hip hop and rock from:
Subterranean
Paid Leave
Creatures in Clouds
No birthday. No milestone. No particularly good excuse. Just a name we’ve been threatening to use for years and three great bands to make it worthy of the title.

Feelin' Alright! A Celebration of Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs &amp; Englishmen
November 6, 2026 | The Brightside | Dayton, OH | All Ages
Step back to 1970 and experience the raw, electrifying energy of Joe Cocker's legendary Mad Dogs &amp; Englishmen Tour brought to life by some of Dayton's finest musicians.
Local powerhouse vocalist Matt Byanski leads this massive ensemble through the classic songs from the Deluxe soundtrack that accompanied the iconic 1971 concert film. Covering the invaluable role of the great Leon Russell, veteran Dayton rockers Nick Mitchell and Jimmy Rogers bring decades of stage experience to the guitar and keys.
True to the spirit of the original tour, this show goes big — featuring a 10-piece choir led by Sharon Lane, Kat Givens, Khrys Blank, and Vicki Brown alongside a roster of talented local singers. And just like Cocker's famous lineup, the band rolls with dual kit drummers Josh Johnson and Steve Phelps, anchored by percussionist Erich Reith.
This is more than a tribute. It's a full-scale revival of one of rock's greatest live moments, performed by a community of musicians who live for this music.
He's gonna need a little help from his friends — and they showed up.
How to Go
Date: Friday, November 6, 2026 Venue: The Brightside, Dayton, OH Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 8:00 PM Tickets: $20 advance / $25 day of show *Reserved Tables: Available Ages: All ages welcome
