Finnish people GATHER!

If you come from UK then there isn't really anything that interesting in Helsinki music wise, unless you want to go check out local metal or punk scene.
Tavastia might be worth visiting depending on the live show. Same goes for Apollo Live and Club Liberte(free WLAN).
3rd Line is worth it if you want a smaller place.
As for underground club you can probably ditch that idea there isn't really any.
Also not a single killer electronic one.
You could always see if you can find some university summer lectures and see if there's anything interesting. They're open to everyone who just happens to walk in. (except medical)
All in all Tallinn is a lot more interesting city than Helsinki, at least it has an old town. And it's like 1/4th of the price.
Oh and Helsinki is a terrible place to get around. The public transportation absolutely sucks, getting from A to B takes a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time unless they're on the direct tram or metro rails. Buses take forever since they do all kinds of stupid curves and route planing is horrible. Usually the easiest way to get from A to B is take a bus to the central railway station and another one from there.
PS. Finland is considered Western Europe.

^ oh, you were able to say it in better words than I xD + I didn't even know what part of Europe we are, I tought that we are in the northen Europe xD
undetz:
Northern AND western, despite being even further east than Poland.

I wasn't sure. I always thought "west enough" but no offence intended. Like I said, the music uni is on my list so we'll hit that early on, if not the first day. Tavastia is playing bugger all but I thought might be worth seeing anyway (or not on gig nights?). Im a metal fiend (and critic!) so if theres better let me know.
I'll be there 18-20th, so if anyones bored and wants a free pint (my friend will be too drunk to notice) let me know in pm, I'll send you a way to contact us.

Of the Scandinavian countries, Finland is probably the best. Winter War earns my respect.
