April 15, 20196 yr Loreen to perform a synthpop banger version of Grande Amore. Lordi to perform a heavy-metal screamo version of Satellite. Brotherhood of Man to perform a gentle MOR 70s-pop version of Viszlát Nyár.
May 1, 20196 yr when did he ever need an excuse to get naked? the love love peace peace video is the perfect example~ can he appear like that for the majority of the airtime though
May 9, 20196 yr https://plug.dj/login me sam and liam are doing a quick informal listen of all the songs for 2019 rn xo
May 12, 20196 yr Author Wow this opening ceremony is a hot mess. The 41st delegation should walk the carpet by the time the voting opens in the final.
May 12, 20196 yr Gotta admit, Kan with a random gangsta rap in the middle 8 is the gift I didn't know I needed!
May 12, 20196 yr Author We stan the mayor of Tel Aviv and his wife ignoring the hosts and photographers and just walking straight in front of D Mol's shot
May 12, 20196 yr Good lord, Tulia seem insufferable just as much as their song. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone as scared as Zala & Gasper :lol:
May 13, 20196 yr So many delegations are complaining about the production team either not execution their wishes well enough or not executinf them at all. This hosting is a shambles. Like The Netherlands wanted the full arena dark besides a lil' ball near Duncan. But up until now they never fully darkened the arena... A lot of delegations also got a 3rd technical rehearsals. Last year only 1 got it
May 15, 20196 yr Christer Björkman is taking Eurovision to America, under the name American Song Contest. It is to be held from 2021. There will be a press conference about it tomorrow. https://www.aftonbladet.se/nojesbladet/melo...rteras-till-usa
May 17, 20196 yr A promo code now exists that discounts all remaining rehearsal tickets to 450 shekels - over half the price of what they were before, but still about £100 each which is too much for me when I've already spent £300 on one final ticket :P So despite being in Tel Aviv already I'll resist the temptation and save my energy for tomorrow night. Just had the most expensive McDonalds meal ever to the sound of James Fox's Hold On To Our Love blasting out the store speakers.
May 19, 20196 yr Question for those that went to eurovision before How do ticket sales work? Do you have to be a memberof some sort of fanclub?
May 19, 20196 yr No fanclub/membership needed, there's a queuing system that randomly puts everyone in a queue at the time the tickets go on sale. This year I was 15,000+ in the queue and got my ticket fine, even though that's way above the venue capacity as not everyone actually bothers buying. On all years since I started attending there were extra chances to buy tickets nearer the time, yesterday had a few dozen extra put back on sale the morning of the contest.
May 19, 20196 yr Generally they go on public release around December/January (messy broadcasters like Ukraine and Israel leave it a lot later but I think the Dutch will be a lot more like the Scandi countries and have everything organised well ahead of time) - the OGAE fan club gets a limited number of packages available via them but it's usually a real fight to get them and you're very unlikely to get them if you just joined that year.
