In memory of the legendary Mick Montgomery, we invite you to The Brightside for a special evening of live music, storytelling, and community on what would have been his 80th birthday.

Join us as we celebrate the life of a man who shaped Dayton's music scene for decades. Share your favorite Canal Street Tavern memories, reconnect with old friends, and enjoy performances from musicians whose lives Mick touched along the way.

Whether you spent countless nights at Canal Street or simply felt the ripple of Mick's impact on local music, this is your chance to raise a glass, swap stories, and keep his spirit alive through the thing he loved most—bringing people together through music.
