  • Who's organising the meet up then :D
    Just gimme me some truth...
  • I'm not going to this show, but if I'm not mistaken, you all will have the pleasure of seeing The Black Keys open, and wanted to tell those who have never heard of them to get there to see them. There are only two of them and they make a hell of a lot of noise!!!!

    That would be great, i said in another post that since the venue is on the east side of Berlin, it would be easy to have a post party in the Warschauer Str. There are quite a few bars on that area.
    I feel very close to you all now; so close I could almost... loan you money. Really. it goes that deep.

    So then? who else is down for a meet up?

    Any Berlin locals or people who know the city fairly well?

    I do not, and it's actually going to be my 1st visit there next week, which is why i'll be there from wednesday 20th to check out the place so by sat i should have a basic idea of where things are!

  • Hey guys!!
    This is my first post, im a Berlin local and wanna recommend some areas to you: You guys should go to Kreutzberg (Subway: Kottbusser Tor or Görlitzer Bahnhof) this is 2 stops away from Warschauerstrasse. Very cool district!!! or Prenzlauer Berg (Subway U 2 Eberswalderstrasse).

    Another question: might there be a slight chance seeing Eddie performing solo before the opening act (like he did in the past tours) ???????

    Would be great

    Cheers

    Yes you guys have to enter the Oranienstrasse (next to Subway Görlitzer Bahnhof) there are many cool bars, pizza places restaurants (less tourists more locals) AND as well from the same subway station enter Wienerstrasse: after 100 m up south youll find bars like Wiener Blut, Weisse Taube, Wild at Heart (tiny famous punk bar) and many more. Theres a cool vibe and ull definite like this district.

    Same with the area around Subway Eberswalderstrasse (district Prenzlauer Berg) theres the Kastanienallee (street) very crowded at night times,

    for further information best pizza- döner- icecream- clubs and whatever places, just ask, hope i can help you!!

  • I just noticed that it says on http://www.pearljam.com/tour/index-detail.php that doors open on 17.30 and e-mail we got from 10c says 17.00, which one is right?

    Kyuss, do you know the Wuhlheide area well? Is there any restaurants, food shops etc. nearby?

  • Hi guys!!

    Yes ive been at Wuhlheide before (Pearl Jam 2000 :))) and some other shows, first of all its the best really the best openair venue in Berlin, its a little tiny openair stadium in the middle of the woods, very beautyful great sound and perfect atmosphere!!!!

    There are no restaurants nearby but some guys are usually selling "Würstchen" Beer and stuff like that, but i recommend eating downtown cause its cheaper and better.

    Dont know anything about the gates so far, but 17.00 sounds correct.

    Yes ill be there. FOR SURE Im going with my exgirlfriend...:)

    My experience so far in the tour is that Ten Club ticket collecting requires some hanging around. Is there any chance a Berliner, could let us know what facilities(i.e. a beer tap) and amenities(i.e. glasses) are available surrounding the venue with which to kill time between Ten Club ticket collection and door opening.

    The surrounding offers a big playground but thats not what you are looking for i guess :) Theres usually a beer stand where to get cold and fresh beer in plastic beakers. But you know wuhlheide is in the middle of nowhere.
    I think ill be late that day...
  • probably a stupid question but i do not have ten c tickets but how does that work then (never done this before)At arnhem the ticket i had was the entry ticket...so do i go early to exchange the pdf thing into a other one and then get inline for a good spot close to the front or is it going to be like you get a ticket and they tell you where you have to go?And if the first thing is the way it is ...what time you guys think we should get there in order to have a resonable good spot....don't mind the whait probably lot's of nice people there to talk to;)

    PEARL JAM in Berlin!!!!! BRILLIANT!!! I´ll be there!!! Ok- wanted to let you guys know a few things about the venue (been living in Berlin for the past 8 years!!) It´s true- the venue IS in the middle of NOWHERE....There really is absolutely nothing around the venue....unfortunately....So for those who are going early be prepared to entertain yourselves!! There are however (usually) many Würst stands, drink stands, beer stands, and if you´re lucky they sometimes have a huge stand that sells EVERYTHING from "Haribo"...so lots of sweets.....Getting to the venue is not difficult but be prepared to walk a bit....It´s an open air arena- very cool atmosphere.....just cross your fingers that it doesn´t rain!! Hmmmm....am I forgetting anything?? There are buses that drop you off quite close to the venue, and then there´s a bit of walking to do....The buses are usually PACKED but don´t worry they keep coming regularly and they are just for the concert....If anyone has any questions just let me know!!!!!

    Thanks for the heads up KT. where can one catch the bus from? and what is the route number, etc? I'm gonna have to travel quite a bit to get to the Wuhlheide from my hotel, which is next to the Weissensee (Hotel Königin Luise). Luckily I am going to be in Berlin sightseeing 3 days early, so will scout out the area and such..

    and you know it has to be done...

    Ok!! I´m going to get all the information I can get and post it up here! I´ll let you know what bus number to take and from where....I´m pretty sure that you´ll need to use the underground (U-bahn) system to arrive to a certain point and then from that point on there will be buses shuttling back and forth from the venue...Give me a day and I´ll get all the info up and running...One thing I forgot about: Every other gig I´ve been to there (and everywhere in Berlin for that matter) has travelling costs included in the ticket price, so you won´t need to worry about that at least!!!
