| www.wotif.com usually has some good deals on standby accomodation. Used them a couple of times for some last minute bookings. |

| Well the question is how cheap and what type of accomodation yo9u want?? Do you want hotel/motel accomodation? Close to CBD? Or do you guys want a flat/appartment for a while? And how long for? Eek, so many questions. :) |

well... the thing is we're staying at the University of SA in the lincoln college for a week or so and theres the option of staying on there for $36 a night - which is pretty good all things considered, but we want to keep our options open in the way of cheap hotels/motels - somewhere close to the CBD i guess, cos we wont have transport. i guess the length would be anywhere from a few days to a week cost permitting so a flat/apartment is probably out of the question. where abouts are the clubs and pubs in adelaide? within walking distance from lincoln college? and are there some decent trance/progressive clubs youz can reccomend?
hahaaah who has all the questions now :D |

Is that a challenge?? :)
Seriously, $36 a night is as cheap as youre going to get anywhere in Adelaide, so i'd stay there. The good thing about Adelaide, tis that all the nightlife if within walking distance, so a 15 minute walk would be the furthest youd have to walk from where you are staying. As for trance/progressive:
Heaven (on a thursday night)
Soda Room
Red Room
The Loft
some of the places i know of, but i know there are more, perhaps ask dowlz. If dowlz is in Adelaide in the time youre here then perhaps we could al go go out one night, show you what adelaide has to offer (not a lot). :) |

yeah im thinkin staying on at the college would probably be the cheapest option (hell they throw in breakfast too) not to mention the most convenient, cos we dont really have any way of lugging our bags around.
heh perth has a soda room too and we used to have 'the loft' a few years ago. interesting huh :rolleyes:
might just have to take u up on that offer mista stamper... we'll show you south australians how to drink!!!!
(now THATS a challenge ;) ) |

Just for the record, Lincoln college is an absolute hole! Please, for the love of God, stay at St Marks. It's the same price I think. All the buildings at Lincoln are concrete hunks of sh#t. At St Marks you get gardens, nicer rooms, it's just sooooo much better.
Look at www.stmarkscollege.com.au
As far as night life goes, if you're looking for something that resembles trance go to Chemistry at Heaven II on Thursday nights. Some DJs are a little commercial, some a little hardcore, but sometimes you get some true trance played. And they rotate the DJs every 45 minutes or so. Last week they had Push - Strange world (2000 remake), Cygnus X - Superstring (Rank 1 remix) playing at one point. |

| i dont know if we have the option of staying at st marks instead of lincoln college, cos we're going over for a conference and they've organised all the accomodation for us. I will ask about that tho. |

I live at a college. Enuf said. :tongue2
Actually last weekend we had "Marksenfest" (the college I'm at is called St Marks). Anyway, Marksenfest is like Octoberfest, just in Adelaide :) 30 different beers from around the world, jumping castles, sumo wrestling etc |
