Rookies on US 27 in North Lansing
If you remember from a few months ago, I mentioned how much J liked karaoke. When she lived in Idaho Falls, she found a karaoke bar. When we lived in Peoria, we found a karaoke bar. When we moved to Lansing, we never found a karaoke bar. When we were in Chicago last weekend, she wanted to go find a bar, but we got watching Sarah Palin on Saturday Night Live and never made it out. That itch never went away, so she got on Google and again started looking for karaoke in Lansing. She found Rookies and after a phone call to see what time it started, she had her mind set on singing, so we pushed dinner back to 8:30 then went looking for Rookies.
We looked for a long time to try and figure out where exactly Rookies was at. For most of you that have lived here all your lives, it’s not hard. For us newbies who rely on Google Maps and a GPS to get around, it was a pain in the ass. Google Maps puts the bar out near Flint for some reason. Even though the listing says Lansing, it puts a mark on the map far east of the city. After striking out on Google, we pulled out the GPS. Daniel (that’s what we call our Garmin due to the voice file we use being called Daniel) couldn’t find the street in Lansing. This is a really common problem with both J’s and my GPS. I have a Nextar and she has a Garmin. A co-worker of hers has a Garmin also and runs into the same problem. It’s a problem we never have anywhere outside of Michigan. Michigan’s prominent use of Townships as addresses screw the computers up. Finally, we found the correct address in Dewitt Township, but it was incredibly frustrating just trying to find a bar.
