i've been to Prague and you must walk along the Charles Bridge during sunset, it's soooo lovely and there are usually cool musicians playing and people selling arts & crafts!
there is the bar (wish i could remember the name) it's like a CAVE tho....underground......it's a TOTAL blast!!! i'm sure if you ask about it peepz will know what you're talking about, i can't imagine lots of cave like bars/dancing places.
the food is GREAT (coffee is NOT great) and when i was there my $$ went a LONG LONG WAY! which didn't suck.
they have cool bookstores that sell REALLY old books and maps of the area, i recommend if you're into that to check several out (i love the smell of old books) and well the people are GREAT, very friendly, and make sure and check out Vaclav Havels hacidenda.....hehehe it's a strange mix of architecture styles that boggle the mind! there's also a famous church near the presidents residence thats really old it's in the gothic style......i wish you could see my pictures!!!
watch out for the police they spot foreigners (prolly mostly americans) and check and make sure you have everything, and if you get caught speeding or parking in the wrong area, you'll have to BARTER the ticket to get your car back......it was a REAL drag!!!
if i went back.....i'd buy GARNETS, it's a blood red stone and they were so inexpensive. i constantly kick myself that i didn't get a ring or necklace or something.
oh oh.....try to stay in that hotel (i think it's called Miro? or something like that) it used to be an dungeon, and the rooms are like dungeons.....it's totally RAD!!!
you're gonna love it....i'm jealous
btw.......i LOVE your avatar.....when i first saw it i thought it was a deer with antlers.....but i see what it is now....the colour is just lovely! ahhhh but i digress........heheheh

I'm a czechoslovakian straight up yo. Actually, I'm only 1/4th Czech, but I feel compelled to cling to any identifiable heritage I have available to me

Go to a bar/club called "Wakata". It's a small dingy place that reeks of marijuana smoke, but I saw a fucking cool dj play an awesome drum/drill n bass set there last summer. I can't remember they guys name but I think he was a local. Go check it out if you're into that sort of thing!!!
I can't remember exactly where it was but it was on the west side of the river. It was listed in a nightscene guide so maybe if you look in those you'll find it.
Oh I just remembered they have a website: www.wakata.cz

wow. now thats a review :)
thanks for the good recommendations. i'm really looking forward to going!
i'll leave my drugs at home, and we're not going to be driving around there, so we should be ok. i just gotta be careful with my camera and things like that.
i hope a week is enuff to see most things.
thanks!
btw, my avatar is a painting by john avon, and i really recommend his site. all his stuff is great. www.johnavon.com
occfactor: cheers, gonna check out that site now. from what i've heard, finding good techno/drum&bass parties shouldnt be much of a problem!
