The entrance for special events is usually 100R ($3), however, sometimes it is free. There's a face control at the entrance, but if they see you're a foreigner, they'll be happy to let you in. There's also a music store on the 2nd floor, where you can buy a brand-new pirate drum'n'bass, house, techno, trance CDs — stock up for your journey to Altay. What's On: Normally, the best days to club in Pilot are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday — that's when DJ spins his favourite house music and coolest people in Barnaul come to party.

DVD movie shows start daily at 19.00. Address: Barnaul, Proletarskaya st., #76 (50 meters off Lenina Prospekt, just two blocks down from Rus hotel). Telephones: 1st floor - (3852) 658554, 2nd floor - (3852) 354606, Internet:
