Friday, in Centerville only
Dayton's karaoke calendar has an odd gap at the end of the week. Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday each have three venues singing. Friday has one: Soft Rock Café on East Franklin Street in Centerville, 10pm to 2am, which runs Thursday through Saturday.
Monday and Sunday have nothing on our confirmed list. Tuesday has only Oregon Express downtown. So the city's karaoke is really a three-night habit, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday, spread between downtown and the suburbs.
Early downtown, late in the suburbs
Downtown keeps civilised hours. The Reserve On Third sings 6 to 9pm on Thursdays, matched to happy hour, and Club Evolution on Patterson Boulevard starts at 8 on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
The late nights are out of town. Cape Lounge on Brandt Pike in Huber Heights runs 9pm to 2:30am on Wednesday and Saturday; Soft Rock Café goes to 2am. On a Saturday, Humpty's Bar & Grill in Englewood starts at 9, and on a Wednesday, Good Smog Vapor Lounge in Beavercreek joins in.
