This is the official Holy Grounds Myspace. The official Holy Grounds website is www.holygroundscafe.com. We are a coffee lounge located smackdab in the main drag of Allendale NJ. You couldn't miss it - there's a big clock in the middle of the road right outside the shop (great landmark!). But if you're directionally challenged (like most of us at Holy Grounds are), just go to the Holy Grounds website listed above and click on the directions menu. If you want more trivia or conversation starters regarding our history, that's also on the website. Our hours currently are:
Sunday: 7pm-10pm, Monday: closed (sorry!), Tuesday through Thursday: 9am-10pm, Friday and Saturday: 9am-12am
Holy Grounds is a "Coffee Lounge" because we have lots of space and comfortable accomodations like couches and easy-chairs. Of course on Fridays and Saturdays, the big attraction is our live music schedule. We hope you'd come out for any of the great musicians/bands we book, but if you want to know who's coming on specific dates, check out the upcoming events sections right below this. During the week however, it's also a great place to kick back and relax after a long-day (We have books, magazines, and various newspapers to help!) It's a great place to take your date to, or hang out with your friends - we have a great selection of board/card games available. If you have a youth group or ministry event, even better - we would love to host you for a night. If you call in advance to let us know you're coming, we can offer group discounts.
Feel free to call with any questions!

Three nights of battles will hit The Castle’s indoor event floor stage July 25 for the Teen Battle, July 26 for the Adult Battle and July 27 for the Christian Music Battle, all evenings starting at 7pm. Bands for each night are as follows:

Acoustic and headliner performances to include: Redlight Cinema, Eric Callari, Norma-Jean, Tira Brooke, Don Roat, Melanie Disa, Anthony Garzone, Chasing the Wind, Shane Hull & more!
The Castle has built a permanent stage on their 10,000 sq ft roller skating rink to accommodate this event, as well as future live music venues. With the capacity to hold 1300 people, The Castle’s “Live Event Floor” has unlimited potential. Professional sound & lighting engineer, Mike Baier, has equipped the custom built stage with automated moving lights, high-powered strobes, lasers and even has implemented new LED lighting technology. The entire lighting system is a fully programmed DMX controlled system which allows for great flexibility to tailor the lighting to any performance. Of course, the sound system parallels the magnitude of the lighting system. For our Battle of the Bands, we are capable of running 32 input channels and 8 returns. The Castle’s in-house sound system is capable of prod

SEPT 29 (SAT): Discussion & Feeding the Hungry (a YAGU original)
Please meet at noon at the new Dunkin Donuts at the corner of Washington Ave. and Madison Ave. in Dumont, NJ. Please bring some money to purchase whatever donuts and coffee you’d like, as we discuss My Thirty Days Under the Overpass. There will be plenty to talk about even if you haven’t gotten around to reading the book.
Also, the Manna Ministry, which feeds the hungry in our area, currently has more food going out than being donated. Therefore, please bring as much canned food as you are willing to donate.
Can't wait to bring our music to the cafe. We've just posted new songs from our upcoming album as well as some video from our show at Revelation Generation. Check em out!
We NOW, AT THIS VERY MOMENT HAVE 2 NEW SONGS ON OUR SPACE.
First, for those "Restore" people. You can now add this song to your profile or just listen to it.
The song we JUST added is FLY AWAY.
LISTEN CAREFULLY
ON September 11th, 2007 ANYONE who listens to FLY AWAY will be able to download it FOR FREE!!! ONLY on September 11th, 07 though. So make sure you have your calendars marked.
Haha, well West Milford (or West Nowhere as my bio teacher use to say) is in the "sticks" of NJ and a lot of the things on Weird NJ are in West Milford. I have been to Holy Grounds twice in my life and absolutely love it. I'll have to make a trip back there sometime. Thanks for accepting! God Bless
