Fred >random old guy This will probably help - I'm an old guy and I don't think it's done me any harm there. Think the door peepz there want as mixed and interesting a crowd as possible. Right now that probably means not another late 20s Brit flown in from London to the new Prague for the weekend. I heard from a stateside friend that if the doorguys talk to him he emphasises he's not a Brit (not a good calling card at Berlin doors now). (Unlike me) you probably don't have to worry about being too deranged when you get to the door as that might not fly well either. Think I heard second hand one of the guys say they're on the lookout for people who are not being genuine in some way (not much help). (Depending on what time O1 are on) I think it's probably easier to get in after the queue dies down, which I imagine is after 7am? (can more knowledgeable headz give an accurate figure for this?).
