The bookies have slashed the odds on Glasgow now making it a firm favourite.
I have a range of weekends with free cancelleation booked
San Marino are going to have four semi finals!
Catchy from Belgium.
Pleased they were fans that the backing singers were waving, looked like something else...
Estonia is the best song and best performance of the night so far. Shes getting my vote.
But Australia was very catchy and got the crowd up biggely.
I must say, the staging and production quality of some of these acts show just how crap Ireland were. Some of the songs might be average, but the showmanship is generally excellent.
Belgium wasn't bad, 80's culture club five to it.
Maybe that do the trick for us!
You know it
Not watching RTE (obviously, because it’s RTE)…is Marty still going on about Wild Youth not making it here tonight?

Armenia song is a grower.
Armenia going all German Expressionist with those long shadows!
The action is all wrong she'd need to do it faster.
That was better than I thought it would be.
What did she do?
proper Eurovision song incoming
Oh god not these f#cking eejits with the little fella and the flute
We will only know around 11.40pm with the last big chunk of public votes wh wins.
The juries often have a song which finishes 5th in 1st. I don't like the format really, you haven't a clue who's leading until the last 5 public votes. Before then is meaningless bar the mid and low ranking countries.
Mad hoors
