    Love you guys, and I don't wanna sound like a spoiled griper....but three German cities, but no Berlin? I mean has the overhype finally caught up with us over here? I'm actually seriously curious, as someone who's fascinated by the scene here in B, but concerned about the weird economy that seems to be shutting down a bunch of cool things I've loved for years. Venue issues? Just not on your path for travelling efficiency?
