Hi there, Brian! Thanks for getting in touch.
Good questions. We are fairly limited in how much we can support custom development questions like these, but I’ll do my best to point you in the right direction, if I can. You may also want to refer to our Themer’s Guide and documentation for more guidance on customizations. 🙂
Change page title text
You can change the page title by creating a filter for tribe_get_events_title(). Try adding this to your theme’s functions.php file and change the text to what you would like it to say:

Day/date bar background colour
The background color for the days of the week uses the .tribe-grid-header class. You can target that with CSS in your theme’s style.css file to change the color. For example:
.tribe-grid-header {
background-color: #000 /* or whatever color */
}
I hope this helps, cheers!
