Sunday, July 19th 12-5

Join us Sundays this summer for some great music, refreshing cocktails and good times!

On Sunday July 19th, we'll be hosting our annual Docksider Reunion featuring musical guests, One World Tribe.

The Docksider was home to many a live music-loving local back in the day, including Altered State Distillery owners, Heather & Gavin. Every summer we like to take a day to pay tribute to Bob Nelson and the bar he built where great live music was the cornerstone and dozens of strangers became life-long friends.

One World Tribe was an old Docksider staple as well as a fan-favorite, playing the venue regularly throughout the 90s and early 2000s.

We are both deeply honored and excited to host the only locally scheduled show for the Tribe in 2026 as we tip our hats to this legendary Erie establishment and pay homage to and celebrate the life of a great friend & bassist, Mikey Chin.
