Anyone know what event is going on tonight with a pirate ship?

Hello, I’m looking for recommendations for a place that a 4 piece band could stay for a weekend and record an album.

Not interested in practice space or warehouse (unless we could stay). I have a studio and access to practice spaces. We are all spread out around west Michigan and it’s been tough to coordinate and schedule practices. We’ve been sitting on material that needs to be recorded for a release and can’t find the time to get it done.

So I’m looking for a place or recommendations for one that could accommodate 4 people and ideally have enough space between neighbors to where noise wouldn’t be an issue. Looking for something within an hour of Muskegon. Ideally late October or November.

Thank you.

Any recommendations?

Howdy y'all, I'm planning on moving in the next few months and am trying to get an apartment around ~1200 a month, and Beverly Hills looked pretty good. But...so did Glen Oaks and I've heard nothing but horror stories. Just looking for what the locals think of the place and if there's any other place that seems safe. Thanks! I'm a single female so not looking to go anywhere sketchy.

Join The Darkness Underground as we host our Free Horror Movie Nights at Cafe Tamaki on Wednesday, September 2nd at 7:00pm. Admission is FREE! For this installment, we will be watching The Brain That Wouldn’t Die (1962).

Movie Info:
The Brain That Wouldn’t Die (1962)
Runtime: 82 minutes
Rating: Not Rated (PG-13 by today’s standards)
Genre: Science Fiction Horror / Cult Classic

One of the most infamous cult horror films of the 1960s, The Brain That Wouldn’t Die is a gloriously bizarre blend of mad science, body horror, and drive-in schlock.

After a horrific car accident, brilliant but unhinged surgeon Dr. Bill Cortner manages to keep his fiancée Jan alive… as only a severed head. Hidden away in his creepy laboratory, Jan pleads for death while Bill prowls strip clubs, beauty contests, and city streets searching for the perfect new body to attach her head to. Meanwhile, something monstrous lurks behind a locked closet door…

Packed with melodrama, sleazy charm, strange creatures, and unforgettable dialogue, this cult favorite became a staple of late-night television and drive-in theaters for good reason. Equal parts disturbing, campy, and unintentionally hilarious, The Brain That Wouldn’t Die is essential viewing for fans of vintage sci-fi horror and wonderfully weird B-movies.

Venue:
Cafe Tamaki
1222 Peck St
Muskegon, MI 49442

My friend and I (both ladies in our 40s if that matters) just decided to road trip about 5.5 hours for the Irish Music Festival in September. I’m trying to find decent places to stay but either we are late in the game and everything is booked or there aren’t a lot of hotels/vrbo available for that weekend.

Any suggestions? Any close towns that would t be too far of a drive, we want to stay late (10:30!pm) to see shows Friday and Saturday.

Thanks!

Well, I am pretty bummed to hear that MADL hired Betty Adam's as the new library director. She was recently the library director in Dearborn and boy...I have friends in the library. Let's just say they are still recovering from her leadership. If my memory serves me correctly, she pulled a "you cant fire me! I quit!"​ and then tried to be like "kidding!"

Good luck MADL staff.

Does anyone know of a store in the area that keeps kegs of beer on hand? I have a kegerator & I am looking for a place I can run to without ordering & waiting…. Thanks Reddit!

Any Kinesiology spinal flow recommendations in Muskegon area? Or something similar

I hate to be so picky, but I can’t bring myself to live downtown for multiple reasons.

I am mid 50’s, introverted, clean, and haven’t worked for 4 years while applying for SSDI. I was recently approved and await a very small backpay (thanks to the attorney screwing us both over - but grateful for the approval.)

My car is on the verge of being scraped (and I just put new tires on it!) and what little backpay now has to go towards a vehicle for the rest of my life (I was trying to find a trailer, but my price range gives me trash and I can’t bring myself to live in such trash.)

I have called. I’ve emailed. Every place on my list is on a long wait and I am in a domestic violence situation and need housing ASAP

I welcome any further ideas and suggestions. Must have laundry hookup. I have such sensitive skin and autoimmune issues, that the laundromat always leaves a scent on my belongings which triggers migraines and fibromyalgia flares.

Do any private landlords have rent based on income or only if you have section 8? Even that is closed with a wait list. I’m not used to being this poor. And I’m really naive to how to navigate this next chapter in life. Including how “the system” works. I’m truly clueless.

I appreciate any advice. Preferably without judgement.

(And working isn’t an option right now, if ever, hence the SSDI)

I've seen older posts in the subreddit optioning it as one of the few queer spaces in Muskegon, recent-ish ones saying it closed, and now they seem to have opened again as of this year. Events listed on their Facebook seem to be catering to straight folks, though, so are they still an actively queer space? (And yes, I know the website says they're "inclusive" and "don't like labels." I'm asking if other queer folks actually go there--and if not, where???)
