We are now in May, which means we are just 10 days away from the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest officially beginning with the rehearsals getting underway next Monday, the 11th May!

I love the rehearsals, especially with the live stream from the Press Centre that ESC Xtra usually provide and it's the point in the Eurovision season where I decide who to put my bets on. It was once I heard about The Netherlands' unique staging last year that I decide to have a small bet on them - and that definitely paid off with the 100/1 odds I got! As has been the case for the last few years now, the first rehearsal will be closed and can only be viewed from the Press Centre and the only videos taken will be uploaded on Eurovision.tv. The second rehearsals will then be open to all press.

The full schedule is below (print screened from Eurovision.tv) with the first rehearsal and "meet and greet" timings on the left, the second rehearsal and press conference timings in the middle, and the timings of the dress rehearsals and shows themselves on the right hand side. Remember all the timings are in Central European Time, so everything will be happening an hour earlier in the UK. We hope ESC Xtra will provide a live stream from the Press Centre so we can listen to all rehearsals live as they happen as they have done for several years now, but of course this isn't confirmed yet.

Romania, Germany and Poland maybe, or Austria?

ESC Xtra's live stream will be taking place here! http://escxtra.com/live/

I believe our very own Peter30 (who isn't really ours anymore kink.gif) is on the ESC Xtra team now if I'm not mistaken!

I reckon all those props are UK? The suitcases at least.

You can always rely on Moldova for something different costume-wise! laugh.gif

It's a good job Joseph can't vote in the semi-final dance.gif (Unless he goes abroad especially)

That sounds and looks amazing, I still believe that's qualifying!

It looks like The Voice performance which is good, but with toned down choreography which is understandable as the "dancers" are also singing this time.

Surely they could have sacrificed a couple of backing singers for a few dancers.

The thing is I think all 3 of these first 3 could qualify, but I'm sure there was a statistic going around last year that the first 3 in a semi-final have never qualified. I guess Moldova is the most likely to fail out of these 3 thanks to the juries.

I can't see Armenia qualifying, who is going to vote for that song?
