yea as long as im in the main section (grass area) i dont care and i can fight my way to the front a little but id like to be able to use the bar/shitter freely and remain in this area? anyone know if this is possible?

Haven't been in Wuhlheide before but i assume that it's just like any rock festivals, when you go away from your spot you lose and you'll have to find a new place to watch the show. Knowing germans there will be some security guys checking that there won't be too much people packing in the grass area.

My gf is going to pit but i don't want to stand 6-7 hours at a same spot so i'm probably just hanging out somewhere in the back. Shitty not to be able to see the band together but she's been waiting for this nearly 15 years so i want her to be upfront. Hope the crowd isn't as nuts as i heard they were in Italy, France and Portugal.

Two days to go!!

i think they'll probably issue wristbands to pretty much allow you access to the lawn area when u first get there. so yeah, first come first serve i guess

okay, so... me and my friend are staying at the Dolce Berlin Müggelsee. It says on the side it's fifteen kilometres to the nearest train-station (subway??), anyone knows how the buses runs around there? Looks like there's a subway station nearby, but I can't find a map good enough to locate exactly how far the hotel is from the subway station. Any help would be appreciated

Hi toaster, check this:

http://www.fahrinfo-berlin.de/

Click site to english and put your hotels address there and Wuhlheide as destination. Site gives you options how to move in the city. It looks like that you have to first use bus to get to Köpenick station and then take a tram to Wuhlheide.

This must be most international show of the euro tour, something like ten different nationalities only on this last page of this thread. Great!

or check out http://www.s-bahn-berlin.de/ as you are more likely to take the innercity railway = S-Bahn. Although its all on one map the BVG doesnt lists any changes which might be of importance in the S-Bahn schedule. Therefore I find the S-Bahn mask more reliable.

alright, those of you who have my mobile # can call me later...i wont be online till tomm as i'll be out the rest of the day...have fun and see you at the show:D.

O.k, Will Be At My Hotel-abacus Tierpark- In Berlin At Around Midnight Tonight. Anybody Fancy A Beer Then Call Or Text Me On 07903963070. We're Two 35 Year Old Welshmen Who Love A Bit Of Pearl Jam, And A Pint. Btw, I Almost Was Going To Wear My Europe '92 Long Sleeve Shirt, That I Bought At Finsbury Park Gig In London In June Of That Year-it's Been Kept In My Bottom Draw For Years And Is Sooooo Fantastic I Was Afraid Somebody Might Kill Me For It! So It's Gone Back Away. Anyone Else Got A Really Ancient Pearl Jam Tour Shirt That They'll Be Wearing? Let's Hope This Gig Is As Great As We Want It To Be!!!!!see You All Sometime, Maybe.
