Any of my fellow Sonarites in Amsterdam? I just arrived and will be heading out to enjoy the sites after a few more zzzzs. I walked right past a totally naked model who was walking down the middle of the street. I think i might like it here. ;)

My knowledge is a bit dated (1981), but watch out for people asking if you want to go to the Milky Way (a hashish bar) and don't get lost in the red-light district! 
 
Oh, but go on a tour of the Heineken brewery if you can!  That was fun.

I've visited Amsterdam a few times... great city, and not just for the red light. Get out and see as much as you can outside of that one mile magnet (although that can be fun too). There are a couple of great music stores that I recall - one just south of the city core... I believe it's on Vijzelstraat and another within the core with some great vintage gear - not far from the train station IIRC.
 
Last time I was there I stayed at a hotel in Rembrandt Square just south of the core which is a pretty vibrant little area on it's own - as is the area that encompasses the hard rock cafe to the south west of the core.
 
Heed way to the cyclists, and have fun!

Go to the Rijks Museum for sure. Incredible art there.

The red light district at night makes our own Bourbon Street look like a middle school field trip.

I'm heading out today for Edinburgh Scotland. I am happy to say I am leaving with my dignity intact!

So you left the totally naked women to go see men in skirts?

Lol!! I have no way to answer that properly. :) too short of stay in Edinburgh . On a train now to New Castle. Scotland looks a lot like Nebraska at the moment.
