Ez Steppa's... I'm gonna be heading out to Berlin with the missus from 16th - 20th Feb and need some info on the city...

I know there have been a few dubstep events happening out there but if you lot can offer any advice on what bars, clubs, or events we should check out, I’d be grateful... Don't need to be dubstep although that would be nice...

I can remember reading online somewhere that Shackleton is playing on the 16th but i cannot remember where i seen it advertised.. Anyone know id this is still happening???

Also any other info on sights or must see / do will be helpful...

Thanks in advance...

Dust off your leather g string and head to Berghain.

especially recommend the turkish market across the river from hardwax

Dark beer is the shit. And the sausage, chips, mustard and a half pint thing WORKS. Talk english, trying to talk German when you can't will just confuse things.

Apparently there's a free historical walking tour group daily that is not boring at all, 4hrs, and an 8hr one which cost a few euros that will leave you begging for more even if you're the type of person to be totally bored by that sort of thing. so i've been told.

Enjoy the grafiti, the space, the cheapness compared to our rip off country, the fantastic availablity of recycling, great transport, and the warm and friendly German's with their famous sense of humour.

Watch The Lives of Others, and Belrin: Symphony of A City before you go to get in the mood. Listen to Kraftwerk. And the classic 'made in Berlin albums like ummmmm.... those Bowie ones, that Depeche Mode one, Liars' Drums Not Dead, ummmmmmm... there's more... Lou Reed?

Repeatedly and maliciously mention the war

Then tear off your england shirt to reveal a 50 foot high St. George's cross covering your beer bloated belly and start screaming 'If it wasn't for the English you'd be swedes'' at the top of your voice.

thanks for all the replies, yeah including yours Corpsey

I managed to find the event i saw advertised online...

Checked that other thread Rama; some good suggestions... Hardwax was already on me list and the turkish market sounds good

You cannot go to Berlin without visiting the infamous Watergate and Tresor clubs.

Watergate is an excellent venue, rated one of the best clubs in the world.

They mainly play minimal/tech house, but i know that Skream recently played there, so expect a wicked night even on a Wednesday night without any dub.

Aloha Mate,

Get in contact with the Freak Camp boys, they are golden, I am sure they will be either doing something or up to have a beer or two!

watergate is full of tourists and tresor is full of brandenburg hillbillies!

... of course, that's just my opinionated native perspective, and anyways it's all good if yer into that sorta thing.

co-signed! week:end is massively over-hyped as well. berghain/panoramabar is quite an experience though...

"Haus der Kulturen der Welt" http://www.hkw.de/ is always worth a visit. amazing architecture and the current exhibition seems to be interesting too...

cheers this looks worth checking out, the missus is into this kinda stuff too so it will hopefully balance out with the time i'm planning on spending in hard wax

Over this weekend, loads to do thats already been suggested but keep em coming... cheers

If you need more record shops, there s also another really nice record shop called Dense in the Oderberger Strasse (U-Bahn U2 - Eberswalder) and there s also Oye around the corner, both well worth checking out...
Dense being centered around ~scape (Pole) and lots of experimental stuff, Oye being more for the cluby buisness.... loads of rare whitie mashup, bootlegs and the likes...
