The place you speak of was still a bowling alley then, but they did have a place going out toward Springboro that was a club that had some acts.

It seems Keith Whitley was scheduled to come there..

Big Keith Whitley fan and wish I would have caught him live. 

My father funeral was in Middletown in 09 per him living on Germantown/ Middletown line on Thomas Rd. Had several Uncles work at Armco steel there and another Uncle is in the Miami (Oxford) basketball Hall of Fame there and just a few years back got some sort of statewide award or induction. 

Became Athletic Director at Central Florida in 60's and 70's after playing career until he brought them into division 1. Probably 80's as well. Then became Dean of Education and later just board member.  Finally retired, so know Middletown very well too. Will be getting a Swiss steak dinner at Dads restaurant if still open this weekend. lol

Thanks for making me reminisce.
