I love Eurovision and often go to Eurovision party. This year however I find myself with no plans and a chap with no interest in the divine kitschfest.
Are any local pubs or other venues holding a Eurovision event?
I *heart* Eurovision, but looks like I will have to miss it this year. So bad, it's good! Surely someone must be putting a party on? Check TimeOut, miss Annie! Have a vague feeling I saw a tweet from them about it.
Jedward represent Ireland. I found their song surprisingly catchy. 'Our' entry is by four young estate agent types called Blue. Haven't heard it yet. I think Popbitch are favouring Belarus.
I think my favourite bit is the next days debates about whether the voting system is was fair or not. Every single year when the UK does badly, not mentioned much when they do well...
Sod the UK results, we've not submitted a decent song in years - which is baffling when you consider how much better we are than everyone else in the normal run of pop. But I've been boycotting since the year when The Ark for Sweden came near the bottom of the finals, and Israel's Teapacks and whoever it was doing 'Vampires Are Alive' for Switzerland didn't even make it past the semis. And a bunch of former Yugoslav and former Soviet dross came up top as a result of votes from the neighbours. As one similarly appalled friend with whom I was watching put it, I wouldn't vote for someone who'd got dogshit on my carpet ten years ago, never mind someone who'd been Hell-bent on genociding me.
Just watching the voting, actually quite upset I missed it all. @Miss Annie, I hope you found a party and avoided the Stapleton, they had a big sign out saying Eurovision free zone. (Actually it said something like Cheese free zone, and Eurovision crossed out underneath it.) Spoilsports.
