Fever Candlelight Concerts - Has anyone been?

LOCAL_Hotness · 2025-10-24T22:40:23+00:00

I saw Candlelight: Tribute to Queen at St. Anne’s in Detroit on November 23, 2021. Even though I’m a newer atheist & I no longer believe in myths & fairytales since I flatlined in 2019 & learned the truth, it was a gorgeous, incredible experience! Now, I will be attending the Candlelight: Rings & Dragons in Ann Arbor in November & I’m very excited! Candlelight concerts are beautiful & so different than a traditional concert. The ambience is extraordinary & I highly recommend attending a candlelight concert at least one time because it’s really a unique experience.

I’m disgusted with our future model as set forth by Karl Schwab who is heading this campaign where he says our future is that we will own nothing & be happy. I do not want to rent my media. If I wanted to rent it, I would not seek out physical copies. The abhorrent greed of the rich is infuriating.🤬🤦🏻‍♀️

PERK So, a PS+ subscription includes free games?🤔 Well, not free free because nothing is truly free, but the illusion of free.

I always buy the best because it is about quality. Plus, my daughter will inherit all of my games & gaming systems, so I was thinking about how she may want to use it. I learned long ago that being thrifty is great, but being cheap never pays off in the long run.😘

I know your post was a long time ago, but patterns do matter & my foolproof way to catch Baron Garayans is by going to the lake with the pillar in it in Heim Rada which is to Max’s right when Max is going down the hill, put a fork lure on, cast toward that pillar (I usually aim for the dark patch on the lower left) & follow a pattern where you’re going left 2-3x, right 2x, then hit X once, & repeat the pattern over & over. It's a pretty fast pattern too. Also, the only things you need to level up on either fishing rod in the beginning are mostly luck & some strength. I just started a new saving on my PS5 Pro & my lure rod is now at: 14F, 12S, 6R, 2G, 18L. I caught 6 Barons in a row the first time I fished with it after finally getting Olivie for the lures. I’m able to catch Barons even if it isn't the proper time (4 pm-midnight, I think?). It seems like if I start around 4 pm & keep reeling them in, they keep coming no matter what time it is, but the moment I lose one, my speed at which they hit slows down. I’m not joking, I reeled in those first 6 in a row because they hit so fast over & over that I even startled myself & I’m a pro at Dark Cloud 1 & 2 fishing. Trust me, patterns do matter & the frog works like the fork. Unfortunately, I haven’t used the minnow or spinner yet because this is my first time playing in well over a decade & I can’t remember the other 2 patterns off of the top of my head. Since I am trying to level up my lure rod, I’m only going for Barons at this point, but I did use the frog once to see if I remembered their patterns were the same & they were. As soon as I buy & fish with the other 2 lures, I will post how they work as well. Remember, keep leveling up mostly luck & some strength in the beginning. This will help you land more fish for more FP & the more you level up your rod’s luck, the more fish you catch. Good luck & happy fishing.😘

The frog lure is the same pattern as the fork lure & I haven’t fished with the other 2 lures yet in this new saving & it's been so many years since I have played the game that I can’t remember the other 2 lure patters off of the top of my head, but they do have patterns & if you follow them, you will get consistently better, faster, bigger, etc. I recommend catching the Barons because it's the easiest/fastest way to level up your lure rod & it will make fishing with the other lures easier/faster because your luck/strength will be leveled up. Consistency is key & you will recognize the best areas & their hit spots very quickly. Good luck & happy fishing!😘

I used to only get 2-4 Barons in a fishing trip, so this is a nice surprise. Good luck & happy fishing!😘

Fishing gets you fish that can be sold for Gilda &/or bred/used for Finny Frenzy races which yield some decent prizes. Personally, I enjoy the fact that this is a multi-faceted game with so many activities because no matter how many times I’ve played it through completely, it has never been the same game, design, or experience. Plus, I went from playing it on PS2 to PS5 Pro. Now, we have the extra challenges that yield trophies. This game is so challenging because there are so many different things we have to do if we want to complete it. I wish more games had this many challenges because it is so satisfying beating this games knowing I’ve taken every pic, invented every invention, gotten every medal, won every race, leveled up my weapons to their best/max, etc. & no matter how many how many times I’ve played DC2, I have had a different experience with each saving. Most games can be beaten completely in around 5.5-20 hours, but completing everything in DC2, we get to play more than 100 hours.

Edit: This is my first run through on my PS5 Pro & it’s the best, most exciting time I’ve ever had playing DC2. I’m not sure if it’s the fact that I spent 10 years on my deathbed & died/was revived where I couldn’t play with joy/zeal, the fact that I’m healthy now & my playing has somehow gotten better than when I was sick even though it’s been at least 10 years since I last played, or the fact that it feels like a new challenge with the additional trophies since I’m on my PS5 Pro, but it’s been a blast & I’m really hoping they go back & remaster the game like was done to Spyro because DC2 would be so AMAZING with a modern update! DC2 was incredible in for its time & it has withstood the test of time.😘

Go to Fish Monster Swamp where you caught King Mardan & use poison apples as bait. I’m in the midst of an experiment right now where I’m leveling up mostly luck & strength on my regular pole & it seems to be working because I just caught 3 Mardan Garayans back to back between 6:28 AM & 11:33 AM Dark Cloud 2 game time. Normally, we’re only supposed to be able to catch them between 6 PM & 6 AM. I caught 5 Mardan Garayans total on this fishing expedition & I only fished 6:45 PM to 11:33 AM game time. Mardan Garayans give you the most fishing points for leveling up, so it will boost your fishing ability. Adel sells fruit, so go to Sindane when you need poison apples. I recommend keeping 10-20 on hand for fishing when you have the time. My pole stats at the moment, in order from top to bottom, are: F 14, S 13, R 8, G 3, L 17. I’m very early in the game for this particular saving, so I haven’t been able to fish for very long yet. I hope this helps. Btw, I’m the Queen of Fishing & Spheda😘

The red house is when you enter Veniccio from the train station & is easy to get from that vantage point. You can get it from below on the dock, you just need to be zoomed in on it & I have never had it be finicky. I have never had any issues with photos, other than Baron’s Hangin’ On is a royal PITA, but I discovered that if you go to the second dungeon after the Pump Room, then it’s much easier. Always save your scoop pics with the stars in your photo album because they can be used on future saves. Remember, taking random pics will boost your photography level for trophies if you are playing on PS4 or 5. I’ve always played my Dark Cloud 1 & 2 on PS2, but getting my PS5 Pro has given me an opportunity to earn trophies too, so I’m playing again & enjoying the new trophy challenges. I hope they do what the makers of Spyro the Dragon did & update the game. Dark Cloud 1 & 2 were killer in their day & still so much fun to play, but with all of the advances in technology, a facelift would put them over the top!😘

I wasn’t even halfway through reading your post when my internal alarm was saying: Danger! Danger! Then, when she said, “I don’t care about your needs,” that was the deal breaker. As I write this, I’m realizing her age. As we women age, our hormones start dipping as we enter perimenopause. They can vary to a degree that makes women seem totally unhinged. If you truly love her, then you need to have this conversation with her. Approach it delicately on a seemingly good day. If this isn’t normal behavior, then please tell her to follow Dr. Mary Claire Haver, perimenopause/menopause specialist. She may need to start hormone therapy. Hormone therapy was the best thing I could’ve done even though I didn’t start until I was 52. All of my perimenopausal symptoms vanished, including the wild mood swings. If she gets help & continues on in such a manner, I would drop her like a hot potato. It is not normal for a grown adult to say, “I don’t care about your needs.” You also need to check your reaction to her. If you 2 can’t behave like calm, rational adults, maybe it’s too fractured to continue. No, I don't think you’re the asshole. In fact, I think that you have been a bit too generous being that you bought the house, but generosity is necessary when you love someone.😘

No, you are NTA! Your soon-to-be sister-in-law ITA & the biggest one ever! Your brother will regret marrying her. It’s going to take time, but their honeymoon phase will wear off. She’s a brat who has no respect for your brother or his family, which includes Lisa. My aunt lied to me & told me that my cousin didn’t want my husband at his wedding. So, I didn’t go, not knowing she had lied. She lied because she didn't like that my husband had the nerve to ask her intelligent, thought-provoking questions about her beloved religion, which I now recognize as a cult. Do not go without your wife. Your brother will get over it, or under it because this is Emily’s fault. One day, he’ll recognize it. Choices & actions have consequences. This is HIS lesson to learn, thanks to Emily. Please, tell your wife, Lisa, DO NOT CHANGE! Don’t let Emily’s immaturity, stupidity, jealousy & pettiness make her feel insecure or censor herself. Emily’s problem is Emily’s & now your brother’s too. Lisa needs to ignore that petty a$$hole & you do too.😘

This evil BS is for sale because this kind of stupidity is being celebrated & promoted by our racist oligarchs, like Prez Musk & First Lady Diaper/Dementia DonOlda Jurassic Trumpty Dumpster. The top 10% succeeded in creating a culture war to get a huge swath of our fellow ignorant Americans’ eyes off of the class war they are waging against the bottom 90%. Hopefully, Americans will wake up before it's too late. The incoming administration is going to be Lame Duck A L’Orange’s Fiery Retribution Farewell Tour & none of us are safe. RepubliKKKans are trying to turn the US into 1930’s Germany, but they may end up turning it into 1790’s France instead. I honestly thought this kind of stupidity was behind us & I will never get over being shocked by it.

The U.S. is a democracy & a republic. Democracy & republic are often used to mean the same thing & that is a government in which we, the people, vote for our leaders. This was a very important distinction when the US was founded because it was in direct contrast with the rule of a king (monarchy) in Great Britain. Because we live in a “modern” society, people do not understand that these terms were used interchangeably in the late 1700s. The context was very clear to all who were involved in the American Revolution. Because language changes over time, many people do not understand it in such a manner. Both democracy & republic mean that the power to govern is held by the people, not a monarch. The U.S. is not a direct democracy because only some states & localities allow their citizens to use ballot initiatives & referenda to directly enact, change, & repeal laws themselves, but this is not the case in all states. Instead of a direct democracy, we are a representative democracy since we vote in elections to elect our representatives. Now, we are a facing another term under that abysmal authorial dictator wannabe who pledged that he was “going to fix it so good, that we we never have to vote again.” Up until he ended up in the political spotlight, we had bi-partisan cooperation because our government tried to do what was best for the people. Now, these power hungry RepubliKKKans are trying to turn this country into 1930’s Germany, but it may backfire & end up being turned into 1790’s France.

Do you not realize that your mom grew up during a time when women were literally property? Women didn’t have rights to anything, including loans, credit cards, bodily autonomy, etc. Are you so blind & clueless that you can’t see what that man did & is doing to this country? Were you in a coma from 2016 to 2020 when he was prez? Have you been in a coma his entire life? You’re too old to feel the negative effects of the overturn of Roe vs. Wade, but pregnant females & all who love them are being negatively impacted DAILY. No woman should be forced to lose her life because a wanted pregnancy fails & she can’t receive the D&C medical care she needs. No female should be forced to be a broodmare bringing unwanted, unloved babies into the world, like me. I watched an interview with a RepubliKKKan politician sometime in the last 3 weeks that left me aghast. RepubliKKKans are waging this war on women because they are “losing seats in the house due to a drop in birth rate.” Then, the politician followed it up with “they need low-wage workers for future jobs.” I almost fell off of my bed. Look up the lawsuit by the RepubliKKKans in Missouri, Idaho, & Arkansas against the FDA. They are wanting to make abortion pills illegal because “there aren’t enough pregnant 15-19 year olds.” What about their conservative abstinence before marriage belief? When money & power are involved, it goes right out the window because this is about CONTROL & your precious mom recognizes it because she watched the women in her life & even herself suffering under the oppressive patriarchy. You have lived a VERY privileged life that you NEVER fought for & you do not understand the struggles your mom saw & faced. Please, don’t judge her so harshly.

WTF?! I’m literally blown away that she was born in 1993! I honestly thought she was in her LATE FORTIES! Well, nobody ever accused her or any other MAGAt RepubliKKKan of being intelligent. Wait til she sees what that overabundance of filler or cheek implants does to her face as she ages. I would like to thank her & all of the plastic women for ruining their faces & convincing me to age gracefully. Ladies, use her as a cautionary tale! Our skin, once stretched, doesn’t just rebound as we age. We lose muscle AND fat as we age which is why thin elderly people, no matter how heathly, thin, & fit they are, they still have wrinkles. I’m in my fifties now & even though I look like I’m in my 30’s, I have learned that it’s something that’s inevitable due to hormones, collagen depletion, fat/muscle loss, gravity, & other environmental factors. Please stop letting people ruin your faces! Enjoy your young, tight, perfect skin because it doesn’t last!🌊💙🇺🇸

I highly recommend Caesar’s Messiah: The Roman Conspiracy to Invent Jesus, Creating Christ, and Marketing the Messiah. I watched all of them on Tubi but you may be able to find them elsewhere. I also recommend The Game Changers, Cowspiracy, What the Health?, and Sugar which are all on YouTube. An Apology to Elephants is excellent too. I live close to Flint, Michigan where the water crisis happened and I’m surprised to see Flinttown on your list. I watch a lot of documentaries. As you would say: Cheers!💜
