Late last year, Gregg Kelley, a former Scene sales rep with a background in concert promotion, started booking shows at Roc Bar, a 250-capacity club that once hosted local and national rock acts. Angela White took over as manager.

Back then, Kelley told us that if things went well, he’d start booking the old Odeon, a thriving rock venue throughout the ’90s. Mike Tricarichi, president of Telecom Acquisition Corp., owns both the Odeon and Rock Bar.

Now, Kelley has announced that he’s begun booking the Odeon (the club had been rechristened Earth in the 2000s). The local metal act Mushroomhead is set to play the first show at the venue at 6 p.m. on Friday, May 1. Tickets are on sale through Ticketweb.

Jeff has been covering the Cleveland music scene for more than 25 years now. On a regular basis, he tries to talk to whatever big acts are coming through town. And if you're in a local band that he needs to hear, email him at jniesel@clevescene.com.

  1. do you have to be 18? i seen that if under 21, it’s an additional $4, but i don’t know if there is still an age restriction.
