Ralf: Have you got them to where they can do a bacon-wrapped schnitzel yet? Also, where is "schokoladen" (club name?). Been a long time since I was there and there are clubs now that were in the east before. Thanks for sharing. I posted on their video channel & told them to get their butts over here. — Wes SoCal ex-pat with a snow shovel DISCLAIMER: The above is opinion/suggestion only & should not be used for mission planning/navigation, tweaking of instruments, beverage selection, or wardrobe choices.

Igorilla Joined: Sep 09, 2013 Posts: 42 Berlin	Posted on Mar 16 2016 03:42 AM Hey folks, thanks a lot for the encouragement! We appreciate it very much! Wes, our butts are already here. Schokoladen is a small club in the eastern part of Berlin (Mitte). It is in a house that used to be a squat back in the 90s. They have a sort of rental agreement for the whole building now and are still running the club. Concerning schnitzel: I fundamentally disagree with the Jazzmaster method as promoted and invented by Chef Ralf. I prefer to pound my schnitzel with a yellow Yamaha SGV 300 to give it an exotic bouquet. Cheers, Igor — Boris Bond @ Bandcamp Top
simoncoil Joined: Sep 28, 2012 Posts: 917 Berlin, Germany	Posted on Mar 16 2016 03:44 AM Yes, very good new band. I also was there last saturday. I even bought the tape, even though I don't really like tapes anymore... Badger wrote: Also, where is "schokoladen" (club name?). Been a long time since I was there and there are clubs now that were in the east before. Yes, that is the name of the club, which definitely is my favorite venue here in Berlin (and I played there with both of my surf bands). They don't put on that much surf, but there is always great other stuff going on. The building is close to the centre of Berlin (east of the former wall) and originally was a factory for chocolate (Schokolade), hence the name, which also is a plays with the word "Laden", which as a single word can also mean store, club or bar. The whole building was a squat for many years and always threatened to be evicted and returned to the legal owner. But a few years ago after a lot of protest and negotiations the owner finally agreed to accept an exchange with another estate. This was so far the only case in which one of these squat bars/club was saved here in Berlin (as far as I know). — Los Apollos - cinematic surf music trio (Berlin) "Postcards from the Scrapyard" Vol. 1, 2 & 3 NOW available on various platforms!

So much has changed. Yamaha, eh? Then you are also a culinary force.

Enjoyed visiting a couple of friends in the east way back when, but there weren't many clubs really (and flitting about to clubs was hardly recommended at the time). If I hit the lotto it's on my list to get back there and walk around without mentally looking over my shoulder. Berlin in general was always so vibrant & the city has a special place in my heart - it sucks you in. — Wes SoCal ex-pat with a snow shovel DISCLAIMER: The above is opinion/suggestion only & should not be used for mission planning/navigation, tweaking of instruments, beverage selection, or wardrobe choices.
