FAO of Hugo
Hursty The main (turbine room?) is an impressive space but preferred the music upstairs. It was all a bit disorientating and dark but I found the place quite amusing. Lot’s of corridors, nooks and crannies. Decent atmosphere, everyone just seemed happy/shocked to be in.
I actually had a better laugh in Watergate listening to extrawelt bang it out, despite it not being as trendy as Berghain.
Was anyone dressed up in glam rock gear? That would really piss Sean off.
mono-stereo This is what my preconception is, for a solid decent night out perhaps one of the other clubs is better.
So far the main reason I’ve seen for going to Berghain is to see if you can get in or not and either way you’ll have a story to tell.

mono-stereo the fact that you preferred the music upstairs and think that Extrawelt “bangs it out” are significant caveats to your assessment.
hugopal Given you have no idea what music was being played in either room, your “significant caveat” is pointless.
mono-stereo It’s pretty easy to guess.
Though how would you characterise the different music being played? And who was playing?

hugopal Ben Klock upstairs. I can’t remember who was on downstairs, essentially it was a live set of drone music.
mono-stereo so you were only in the club for 1 hour?! Or it was a random week-night event?
Yes Hugo, we went all the way to Berlin, queued up for 2 hours in the freezing cold for a club that is world renowned for its strict door policy, only to stay for an hour.
The Matrix was better than Berghain would have been anyway.
Absolutely rammo with Teutonic flange.
Hugo why are you sparing us your review of this hallowed venue? Scared of losing face to secret Berghain users on the big JC forum?
Hursty He’s definitely NOT butthurt that you didn’t tag him for his opinion.
