TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

East Coast Hustle

So I'm thinking of trying to fly to London in November to see Rise Against, Parkway Drive, and Blood Command at Warped Tour on the 16th or 17th. It's gonna cost a little over a grand each between travel and tickets so obviously I'm looking for cheap accommodations, probably for 1 or 2 nights for me and maybe my GF. What are going rates for rooms in the city and does anyone have recommendations for places to check out or a willingness to let 2 strangers sleep on their floor?

Also if any of you spags are from the Belgian cities of Bern, Eindhoven, Berlin, or Vienna feel free to chime in.

Not from any of those cities, but, if you don't mind dorms, Generator Hostel is cheap. It's where I usually stay.

What is "cheap" over there? I've never been to that side of the Atlantic so I have no frame of reference.

What level of squalor are you willing to sit in for the duration? I can probably give you a rough idea of what's reasonable in the UK, London prices are over-inflated somewhat but you can probably get something pretty cheap. Their forums may also be worth a shot, usually festivals attract people getting bulk rooms and people always drop out so you can occasionally luck out and get something for fuck all right near the thing.

Bear in mind that that was a 8/16 bed mixed dorm.

And that Generator is a party place w/ it's own night club.

I like it there.

I am not on your root, but a couple of tips:

1. Couchsurfing.org might help you out in finding a sleeping spot, and in meeting fun people.
2. http://www.mitfahrgelegenheit.de/  - carpooling service from Germany, useful for traveling in and out of Germany/Austria/Switzerland.
3. Vienna is fucking awesome and if you want an extended list of recommendations for what to do there, just ask.
