This group is for people like me, whose spirits are lifted after going out and hearing good music and sharing time with like minded individuals. I started this group to find other music lovers in NJ. Most of the groups that I was searching for were in NYC. I wanted to highlight the people and places that play the kind of music you have to dig deep for. Everyone has their own defintion of good music. Here is mine: Soulful/afro house, afrobeat, Funk/Soul(james brown to sharon jones), 50's RB/ro …

My husband and I are doers. We love to travel, meet new people, and try new things. We recently had our first child and moved to a new state at the same time. This has led us to become lonely, old, homebodies and we are putting our foot down.

We want people to join that love their family as much as we do and l …

We call ourselves the Union Coffee Break Networking Group because we all need to take a break once a while and meet new individuals to expand our network and why not do that over a nice …

Welcome to the Jersey Pit Party (formerly Punk Parents). We decided to start this group because we are tired of the typical  groups on meetup. This isn't some kind of midlife crisis group.  We listen to punk, ska, hardcore and metal. We go to shows whenever possible. We play music and make art. We love extreme sports. If you're tattooed and rude and crude, then you're in the right place. We're parents but you don't need to be. We will have both kid-friendly and Non-Kid-friendly meetups. PS - Th …

I don't know about you, but I'm in terrible shape. All those obstacle races that are so populare now (run for your lives, 5k foam fest, rugged maniac, superhero scramble, the color run, etc.) sound like a lot of fun, though. If they sound like fun to you and you'd like to run them too, why don't we a.) train together and/or b.) meet at the event? Training can be ordinary running, but we can also do things to train for the obstacles. I'm thinking rock climbing, water parks, or whatever anyone els …

I recently posted this ad on Craigslist: I'm a keyboard player, suburban dad, 40, formerly a touring musician now a computer nerd. I want to play music regularly but I don't want that music to be from the 50's and 60's. I also can't join your band and start touring (as much fun as that would be). I am searching for a gig that has the following characteristics: - competent musicians - this means that you know how to play, can pick up tunes by ear and are comfortable just sitting down and jamming …

This group will read and discuss the book, The Second Half of Life, by Angeles Arrien at the Center for Spiritual Living West Orange, NJ. 662 Eagle Rock Avenue, West Orange, NJ.

There are amazing musicians who play mostly for tips- and I'm tired of seeing their work go unappreciated. I know that there is an audience who loves all kinds of roots based music- and would welcome the opportunity to be part of a community that connects with artists on a personal level. This group is such an opportunity.

this group will be dedicated to creating a community of vocalists that can sit in with relatively simple songs at live events. In New York City there are droves of passionate singers that lack the opportunity to express their vocal capabilities in live venues. By creating a small community of vocalists and could serve to become a self sustaining group that has the ability to perform in numerous different midsize bars around the city. We will focus on singing relatively simple songs from bands li …
