† BL▲CK ♦ M▲SS † EVENT PROTOCOL:

† BL▲CK ♦ M▲SS † events are a celebration of the dark styles of music and expression and we intend our parties to reflect this. Please
attend in appropriately gothic/post-punk/fetish attire or at least wear black.
At the discretion of the † BL▲CK ♦ M▲SS † door staff we
reserve the right to charge $10 cover or deny entry based on dress
code. Due to the limitations of Mac's Bar licensing and the cabaret
laws of Michigan, we ask that our patrons wear a legal amount of
clothing (electric tape is permissible but no visible areolas). No nudity
is allowed.

pass pre-approved by the owner of Mac's Bar and the † BL▲CK ♦

friendly. We hope to create a safe environment for people of all color,
sexes, and persuasions. Fascists, Nazis, and other hate groups are not
welcome at † BL▲CK ♦ M▲SS † events. Swastikas and other
identifiers of fascist affiliation are not compliant with dress code policy
and are grounds for ejection from † BL▲CK ♦ M▲SS † events.
It should go without saying that harassing or threatening any of our guests or patrons, whether verbally, sexually, physically, or otherwise, is also grounds for removal and/or ban from † BL▲CK M▲SS † events.See More
