Berlin Weekend in Brief

Jan 28, 2009 12:32

Saturday

Checked into Agon hotel - great value, clean, nice breakfast, handy for K17 and cheaper than Dark Hostel
Decided not see Red SKy Coven cos tickets were £20 and we really wanted to see Berlin
Had dinner in a typically German restaurant near Schönhauser Allee

I thought all Berlin goth clubs (I think we managed about 4) were rubbish! Paul's Metal Ecke was good though!

I thought K17 was better than pretty much anything we've got to offer, but then again that's not saying much is it? :-/

I seem to remember leaving K17 at about 2am when apparently it only got going at about 3 .... it was pretty empty and quite a straight crowd when we were there, probably about 4 years ago now ... BTW, although I am not usually one to diss my fellow publicans, me & Cliff went to THE WORST ALTERNATIVE PUB ever last weekend. It made the Hob look glamorous and upmarket by comparison!

How do fella. Sorry I didn't answer your text, my phone point blank refused to send the message!!
You found the club I was talking about anyway by the looks of it. Wild At Heart was the place I was telling you about.

Thought we had! Catch you soon for beerage!

If I don't see ya before I'll see you at your bike night. I've been whoring it to people in the shop. Get some flyers over to me and I'll get them in the bags.

Berlin is great, really wanna go back there soon.
I always thought that K17 was previously a brewery could be wrong, but that amazed me as to the size of the place.
Pauls mettal eck was mad have they still got the big monsters and other such metal video type props around the place, just down the road and round the corner towards warshauer strasse there was a place called tagung that was a communist themed pub covered in lenin drapes and marx busts and a stool made from the remains of a cold war statue, well worth a visit next time if it's still there.
I miss jaunts abroad, really must try and remedy that this year.
