Eurovision @ Instinct

[influxbar]

It's Eurovision time again and we will be showing both the semi-final and the final on a big screen. Miss Fabula Di Beamarchais will be giving live comment on Saturday for the final!

[youdirtybird]

And me too on account of a communion.... you should get people to come dressed in the colours of the countries they are going for ( or for the countries that have the nicest colours[;-)] ) as I don't think Ireland will make it out of first round[:-(]

[petitchouchou]

OH MY GOD!!!! Does this mean the good old terminal three number will be repeated?! [:-O ] [@-)]

[Bootyzilla]

No, she and Miss Martin had a disagreement and the Fabulettes are revolting*, so no. No more Terminal Linda Martin, ever.

*as in anti-orange makeup and green smockery, not as in disgusting. Obviously.

This will be my first year watching the eurovision alone. Boo hoo. Anyone seen the contestants yet. My ultimate favourite to win this year is Romania, I love the song and the singer. Slovenia also stands a good chance as does Estonia with a really catchy abbaesque number. The predicted winner is Belgium with a song called Je T'adore, and its good but smacks alot of last years winner and speaking of Greece they have another great dittie forsaking dance for love.
Last year the emphasis seemed to be on drums, this year there's none, it ranges from dance beats to love songs with a bit of country thrown in thanks to Germany's awful entry. There's a song called I think 'Twist' you'll know it when you hear it also very catchy but I can't remember what country.
The award for campest cookiest song has to go to Iceland. With a singer that represents a mix of old Cindy Lauper meets Bjork on speed and a song that includes a break for a phone call to God, 'Congratulations' is a possibly maybe.
The worst of the bunch, Poland and Spain, what were they thinking!
I'm a fan of Brian Kennedy but not the Irish entry, its sweet and instantly forgetable.
Let Eurovision mania begin and VOTE FOR ROMANIA.[;-)]

I've been saying it for months

CAROLA ALL THE WAY! She may be a homophobic religious bigot but she can sure do a key change.

Wheres your patriotism?
Besides weren't you backing Iceland a short time ago?
Seems the only good way Ireland is represented is by whoring out our talent to other countries.

Still backing Iceland but heard she might be banned from performing. Carola always had my support due to manchurian candidate like brainwashing thanks to schlager-master Amnesiac.

As for patriotism, the ballad is long dead in Eurovision. Look over the last few years, it's all about the spectacle, the flash, the performance. Look at the winners acts! We don't stand a chance of winning until we cop on to the fact that Eurovision has changed and it is no longer the 80's/90's and we should stop sending acts that would have appealed to an 80's/90's audience to the Eurovision of the 21st!

I agree.... what we need is a blonde singing a song with a beat to it and some hot backing dancers [:-?]

Obviously hasn't seen the Belgium entry yet [;-)]

[Bootyzilla]

I have to agree with Shiva, pernicious and all as my deep hatred of Eurovision actually is... it is very winnerish.

[youdirtybird]

She looks like Heather Locklear met Britney Spears

She looks like Tanya Turner.

[Bootyzilla]

I know! Isn't it wonderful?

[Shiva]

I have to agree with Shiva,

Oh dear gods, its the end of the world

[Bootyzilla]

I know. I was wondering why I woke up this morning and there was a 98 C Fiat parked outside my flat.

Ya...I see that too[:-?] now

[LovePuppy]

I'm going especially to see Fabula...Ukoda's never met her....*insert evil laugh here*[:-)']

[yop]

She looks like Tanya Turner.

Ya i always say she looks like Tanya Turner [:-D] but personally i think she'll be lucky to get out of the semi's. Ya the song is good, but did you see her performance in the belgian semi-finals. Appalling! The whole leg swinging thing is just going to scare people away from their phones!!!

[youdirtybird]

Just Googled the Greek presenter of the Eurovision.... would people class him as Greesy Greek or Greek God[:-?] ..

Sakis is a Greek God! He is rumoured to be a 'mo also, well that's what Amnesiac, Lord of the Schlager told me.

They were saying on the radio today that he will be wearing a leather suit...sounds 'mo ish to me[:-D]

You should have seen him in Eurovision a few years back, leather pants and whipping off his top. He used to be a gymnast I believe, it shows.

[LittleTimmy]

If I had his babies I reckon they'd be born with stubble.
He's very pretty.

[Bootyzilla]

Yes, very pretty indeed... but oddly assexual. Then again, I think that's just the photo's fault, it's too 'posed' and airbrushed.

That's stubble is way too perfect, gotta be CGI!
Still do him though, and how.

Ya...other pics of him make him look very different...like below....i'd say there'd be some bang of that...[:-P] [:-P] [:-P] Boom Boom[;-)]

Slighty 'Mo all right lol
I wonder how many cats were skinned for that suit [:-))] [:-))] [:-))]

[Bootyzilla]

Here's a question:

On Saturday, would you prefer A. mildly humourous anodyne Grandpaisms or B. Out-and-out-horrifyingly-cruel-yet-desperately-funny-in-the-right-light-as-long-as-there-are-no-call-centre-multinational-meltingpot-style-tables-present jokes?

EDIT: Actually, fuck it. Of course it's B.

[youdirtybird]

The presenters of the eurovision always seem to have the cringe...crap jokes...why is that

[LovePuppy]

Out-and-out-horrifyingly-cruel-yet-desperately-funny-in-the-right-light-as-long-as-there-are-no-call-centre-multinational-meltingpot-style-tables-present jokes

Hehe..and it'll be Ukoda's first time to properly meet Fabula too[;-)]

[youdirtybird]

OMG......Booty...don't misunderstand my post....When talking about the presenters I Mean on TV..........I'm sure Fabula will be pure class....and every one will have a good night....[:-D]

[+saidin+]

[:-O ] [:-O ] [:-O ]

[Bootyzilla]

OMG......Booty...don't misunderstand my post....When talking about the presenters I Mean on TV..........I'm sure Fabula will be pure class....and every one will have a good night....[:-D]

I didn't misunderstand!! All is well [:-D]

[louislestat]

Fabula is always fab on Eurovision night I can't wait to see what she does this time!

[Bootyzilla]

Unfortunately Eurovision @ Instinct has had to be cancelled, pity!

EDIT: At least, the big-screen with live commentary part of it has to be cancelled thanks to a technical difficulty.

[louislestat]

On no I'm devastated! I don't think any other bar in Cork will be showing it. Won't it be on a big screen so at all in Instinct??

[Bootyzilla]

To the best of my knowlege, no, but please, Instinct staff, correct me if I'm wrong!

[Bootyzilla]

CORRECTION!!

Instinct IS showing the Eurovision tonight, on the small screen by the bar.

That is all, resume your day.

[louislestat]

Thanks for the info,much appreciated
