My First Berghain Experience
Hey guys,
I’ve just made it back from my first Berghain pilgrimage, I was there for two consecutive weeks and could not have had more of an amazing time. I wrote an article about it on my blog, trying to capture some of the incredible experiences I had.
If you’ve been, or are curious about going, I’d really appreciate some comments or anything!
Let me know what you think, thanks

sounds like you lost your virginity that night 
man i need to go there asap! haven´t been there for a long time. maybe i´ll be there often if get the job in berlin i´m applying right now.
Hah it was way better than that, and much less awkward! 
(I also had to censor a good amount of stuff out of it)
Ah man fingers crossed for your job in berlin. I’d move there in a heartbeat!
hehe i know what you are talking about…the gangway behind the dj booth
Nice writeup. I still have yet to have my techno pilgrimage in Berlin. At least I got the Rex here in Paris
You live in Paris and have not yet gone?! No excuses!
And of course, Rex has the music, but Berlin has the music and everything else that should come along with it 
I know, I know. I can’t justify going only for a weekend there, specifically with the high chances of not getting in that place. My attitude to music and clubbing is pure and genuine and I think it can be felt but I can’t take that risk. I’d rather spend more time to enjoy the city a bit and to have a couple shots at Berghain/P-Bar.
Now the real kicker is I have boredom issues being alone for more than a few days, not liking tourist things and being socially inapt, which can create a serious compound annoyance on holidays. I hardly take longer than a week off at a time, so going abroad on my own for a few days is even worse 
Ok i just read the whole thing. I feel depressed. Was in Berlin earlier this year.. got rejected 3 times at Berghain.
Meh.
Damn I’m sorry to hear that Whyte… Mind sharing when you went/what happened at the door?
Lovely read mate, really enjoyed it! One of these days I’ll make it out there, sounds like the experience of a life time if you’re truly into underground club culture
Nice write up. If I ever get to Berlin will be on my list of things I must do.
that was a great read. you really managed to capture your experience and relate it to all of us who have not yet been there. i think i need to convince my friend to take me there when i go visit berlin in june.
great story, now I want to go even more ughghhh goodbye savings. . .
Great read - a tad jelly.
Ah many thanks for the kind words guys.
And yeah, if you’ve been thinking of going, GO! It was actually someone who knows the club very very well who told me he believes it may only have 2 years left…
Ah! Found this post when I wanted to see DJTT’s general opinion of Berghain, read your blog post and thoroughly enjoyed it. I’m glad to report that Berghain is going strong 4 years later, and now the owners of the club own the building as well and are even fixing it up quite a bit… So I don’t think it’s going anywhere anytime soon.
I’ve been a regular there for the last year but reading your blog post still made excited. Everything you wrote is exactly how I feel and the fact you always got in shows how good the bouncers are at picking people who just simply “get it”. Hope you’ve been able to make it back!
well… I’ve been there, it’s a unique experience to do at least once in a lifetime.
That was an incredible read
while we’re at it. i’m gonna be playing @ prince charles tonight. maybe someone is into rap/hiphop/trap music. my set time is friday 5am till open end.
