A live gig at Gretchen, my first time there. Nice little venue. Easy to get to. Friendly staff. Civilised punters. Non-smoking (for the most part). But the sound... Total amateur hour at best. Despite the fact that I was wearing a pair of ER20s and standing right in front of the booth, I was struggling to hear the vocals, and the lower end was so muddy I couldn't tell the difference between the kick drum and the bass guitar. Exceptionally shoddy sound engineering compared to similar size venues around Berlin. No more live gigs at Gretchen for me, am afraid. Can't say I wasn't warned, though.
