We WILL win the Eurovision this year - Engelbert Humperdinck will see to that

[Lord Camomile]

The tech aspects of the show are stunning.

Lil' bit, huh?

e2a: "Yeah, I just watch it for the tech"

 

[Zabo]

ESTONIA

 

[Geri]

Oi, this is a music contest alright? You want hot totty you go watch The X-Factor or whatever, yeah?

There are never any fit men on there.

Maia says you are a geek

 

[felixthecat]

Maia says you are a geek

....and I think she could be right

 

[rekil]

Estonian Lionel Richie.

No.

 

[felixthecat]

This young man has exceptionally mobile eyebrows......

 

[felixthecat]

and, as noted by my daughter, he distinctly has a semi.

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

"Yeah, I just watch it for the tech"

Tragically, yes

I really couldn't care less about the show, but looking at all the bits of kit, reading all the riggers blogs and knowing just how much wire and RF is involved makes me feel a bit funny

 

[fat Andy]

This young man has exceptionally mobile eyebrows......

and very white teeth

 

[Lord Camomile]

Hm, this ain't bad.

No dancin' techno bakin' Russian nesting grannies though.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

I wasn't that keen on Italy tbh

The Estonian entry seems a bit worthy but he does have a powerful voice. And I like Tallinn very much!

 

[Lord Camomile]

Tragically, yes

I really couldn't care less about the show, but looking at all the bits of kit, reading all the riggers blogs and knowing just how much wire and RF is involved makes me feel a bit funny

Actually, I do seem to remember you linking to a riggers blog in previous years.

Something for everybody

 

[rekil]

I wasn't that keen on Italy tbh

Listen again. Timeless pop perfection.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Wow, they must have been gutted when they saw France's entry.

Oooh, gritteh...

 

[QueenOfGoths]

This is a bit boy band lite. Sorry Norway.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh God, this can be as unbearable as the pitwalks in F1.

You know you're onto a loser when I'd rather listen to Andy Townsend.

 

[fat Andy]

Ah Bless. He's a bit like your grandad

 

[Lord Camomile]

"When the Music Dies"?

Bit on the nose at Eurovision isn't it?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Aw, poor Tony

 

[Stanley Edwards]

"When the Music Dies"?

Bit on the nose at Eurovision isn't it?

It was cheating also. Sounded more than familiar

Old tune. Old lyrics. Mix em up.

 

[Teepee]

We should send beardyman for the next eurovision

 

[Lord Camomile]

Actually, Tony may have been alright with not appearing...

 

[QueenOfGoths]

I am sure I've heard this song too. I watch Clubland TV too much!

 

[felixthecat]

that has to be the most unflattering dress so far


The daughter wants 'Crotch Man' aka Estonia back

 

[Stanley Edwards]

Christ, this is a bad joke come live on the telly

 

[Lord Camomile]

Hm, they look suspiciously like a real band

Through the prism of Eurovision, obviously.

 

[fat Andy]

Denmark.................Someone shoot me now please

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

In case anyone is interested, the "6 performers" rule is due to the amonut of wireless microphone/in ear monitor channels available. Each country has its own allocation, there is no Mic sharing at all, meaning that with over 100 channels of each going on RF co-ordination is a rather complicated affair.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Oh c'mon, it wasn't that bad!
