So I'm heading to Berlin on thursday. Gonna stay 'till sunday. What should I check out? Any cool record-shops? Venues? Restaurants? Tattoo-shops? Shows? All tips are welcome, but I'd prefer it to be somewhat central since we'll be staying right smack dab in the middle of Berlin pretty much.

I'm not finding any rock shows at the places I went to when I lived there for a few months. Didn't see many over those few months honestly. You might want to check out Wild at Heart if you are in to punk shit.
If you are into avant garde shit at all, you should check out this calendar. Sowieso was my favorite place to hang out. http://www.echtzeitmusik.de/index.php?page=calendar

I think Vopo Records is the record store I went to that had all the heavy stuff. Cool place.

I mainly hung out in parks and smoked weed, so that's pretty much all I got :/ Have fun!

Okey! Gonna try to check out that record store at least.
Yeah, didn't find many shows either. Toner Low is playing there the weekend efter I'm there, so that sucks a bit.

Berlin is fucking awesome and easy to find cool places to check out and hang out especially in Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain.

There was a pretty cool little record store just down from the vegan supermarket opposite Warschauer Str station

There was also a pretty cool bar/band venue that Conan played at near here called the Jagerklause

Kreuzberg is full of kick arse bars and shit. One place, I think it was called Franken was just playing exclusively ultra sludgy doom real fucking loud when we were there. And just across the road is an awesome Mexican joint called Santa Maria i think.

One of the best things to do though is just grab a fist beer from any of the million kiosks that only costs around 1 euro and just walk around. As soon as your beer is empty, chances are you'll be right outside another kiosk and you can grab another one.
