Gay Berlin is amazing.

Like any reasonable first world major city, Berlin has a vivid and vibrant gay scene that is all inclusive and diverse. If you like twinks, there are lots of twink bars; if you like Turks, there’s Gayhane night once a month at SO36; and if you like punishment, well, there’s a […]

Guts Pie Earshot

So Thursday morning, No Nickname Guy and I trained up to Berlin, checked into an apartment, explored the city, and then went to the Guts Pie Earshot concert.

Guts Pie Earshot is described as “Live Drumnbass Punk”—and I went completely blind, not knowing what kind of music I was getting into, only going on the […]

Gay Berlin Notes

This blog entry is more for myself, although I suppose anybody who is gay and visiting Berlin might find it useful in planning their trip.

Event Calendars can be found at Siegessäule (“queer in Berlin.”) and sergej.de – print magazine versions can be found at queer venues in Berlin. Be careful: if you are in […]

Back Home Again…

My trip to Berlin was pretty darned good.

Really!

The Expected

Honestly, it has already been said, over, and over, and over again, so in order to avoid feeling like a lemming, I decided I wouldn’t actually explicitly say it.

Regardless, I worked at home this morning—I had intended to sleep in a bit, but my body decided it wanted to be wide awake at 6:45—so […]

Gay Leipzig

Friday night I decided to scratch my gay itch—but this time instead of going to gay Berlin, I decided it was feasible to take a late train to Leipzig, enjoy the gay night-life and then take the first train back on Saturday morning.

And it was. I took the 21:50 train from Weimar arriving in […]

Gay Berlin

Tom’s

Thursday evening’s entertainment nightcap was a trip to Tom’s—the nearest bar to my place that seemed worth visiting. It opened at 10p, and I didn’t bother leaving my place until 11:30. Surprisingly, the area was quiet. Not much was going on at all, and I didn’t see anybody going into the bar.

So I […]
