Its that time of the year again?

 

[Notebook]

Nearly...It will seem longer.

I think we are picking our constant this weekend. I am not paying that much attention.

 

[Notebook]

Same here. With Brexit approaching we will probably be thrown out of the EBU and disqualified, hopefully.

Kate Miller-Heidke is our choice.

She is a good fit for Eurovision. Hopefully she will kickoff a year of domination of Australia 'teams' in Europe.

 

[Urwumpe]

Sorry Britain, but we won't let you leave the EU on the last place in the ESC.

Nice, interesting they managed to get Sennheiser upside down.(Germany and Austria probably made/make the best microphones ever)

As somebody who still has to use his private Sennheiser headset at work because procurement thinks 8€ per headset is enough: Absolutely. I know no coworker who does not complain about the cheap chinese headsets they hand us out. My customers hated the microphone quality, they heard everything except my voice. A customer uses cheaper Sennheiser headsets, those have a lot better microphone quality and also the speakers are far better in keeping ambient noise from your ears without you needing to increase loudness to oversound the noise.

This was the microphone in common use when I was working:

Well, they'll finish ahead of Ukraine just by showing up.

Our national song this year a is a bit strange but I do like it!
The guy always performs with the dancer :rofl:

Today is the first semi-final :lol:

Should be fun!

 

[Urwumpe]

Today is the first semi-final :lol:

Should be fun!

Its the only one with a half-way metal band in it, right?

The semi-finals happen in Germany somewhere in some obscure digital TV channels...

 

[4throck]

Yes, the guys from Iceland :lol:
Don't know if they are bringing the half-naked BDSM dude or not

But if course that I'm hopeful for my fellow countryman Conan Osiris!

Here the ESC is broadcast on national TV as always.
Still a bit thing here, and most people see it as a fun show to watch.
Something different that entertains, regardless of actual music quality or scores.

Let's see how it goes

 

[Urwumpe]

OK, the semifinal will be shown here on ONE, right after Doctor Who....

(Since Germany does usually buy itself out of the semifinals, we don't really care much about it)

 

[kuddel]

Nevertheless watching the semi-final(s) is another precious chance to listen to the incredible comments of Peter Urban
