Put-in-Bay Entertainment Pat DaileyPat Dailey (Website) – While he may be semi-retired, we cannot overlook the Put-in-Bay Entertainment legend Singer/Songwriter Pat Dailey! For over 30 years Pat Dailey has entertained generations of Put-in-Bay locals and tourists. When Pat first learned about a popular summer resort on South Bass Island named Put-in-Bay Ohio, it would change his life dramatically. Pat took the stage of the popular Beer Barrel Saloon in the summer of 1978 for a one-time weekend gig and that’s where the magic started. He played the full summer in 1979 and has been packing the place every summer since and continued to do so until the 2007 season when Pat decided to move his show to a more fan-friendly venue, intimate club. Playing a regular steady gig inspired Pat to write his own songs about the things he enjoyed most in his life, fishing, boating, and having a really good time. The songs that would flow from his mellifluous mind would become and remain popular with thousands of tourists throughout the Great Lakes, into Lower Canada and all over the Northern Coast for years to come.

In 1984, Pat arrived in Key West Florida and performed in the old Hemingway hangout, Sloppy Joe’s Bar a taste of the sounds of “The coolest SOB in The World”; (a moniker some fans had hung him with) The enormous nightly crowds of college students and tourists from the world over took to Pat Dailey immediately. He is still packing the place, sometimes ten deep outside on Greene Street because of lack of space.

Pat still performs on Rare occasions to sold-out crowds and fans reliving the good old days with the godfather of the Put-in-Bay Entertainment scene.
