I'm going overseas from Australia on Wednesday, and would love it if
some listmembers could give me tips on idm-ish and experimental places
to go - both clubs and shops.

First stop London. Then Amsterdam/Hollan, Brussels/Belgium, Luxembourg,
Strasbourg, Paris. I don't expect to find much in some of these places,
but others should be pretty great!

Then I'm going round UK with a BritRail pass for a couple of weeks, so
I'm interested in where to stop at. I sortof know, but in particular
places in Manchester and Edinburgh/Glasgow/etc would be welcomed, and
places round Nottingham, Birmingham, and wherever else.
Is Sheffield worth visiting other than just because Warp records is
there?

After doing some gigs with my band FourPlay (electric string quartet)
I'm going to New York for a few weeks. Again, I'd like to check out some
of the stuff there, from the Asphodel type stuff to the Lucky Kitchen
and RKK type stuff. I will be meeting Hrvatski there, and I probably
don't need too much help, but still...

Thanks in advance,
Peter.
