PRENZLAUERBERG UPDATE

On Saturday DD was avoiding the tourists at Snax and went up to Prenzlauerberg for a quick tour of the local gay bars and clubs. Greifbar was empty at 10.30 so we walked down to Danziger Strasse and stopped outside BT club which opened a year ago. A notice outside says "Opening times Fridays and Saturdays 11pm-5am Gay dance party or other event". They used to be open every night of the week. How much longer will they last? We waited in a busy straight bar in Kastanien Allee until midnight and then walked back up to the naked sex party in the new Stahlrohr. There were about 50 punters there, ages 30 and up. Frankly there wasn't much sex going on for a naked sex party. Stahrohr moved to their new location in December "because the new place is bigger" according to the barman. There is a bigger darkroom, they have dispensers for free condoms AND lube, they have done a major redecoration and the toilets were among the cleanest and best we've seen in Berlin.
