A lazy Sunday morning here in Copenhagen, with just six acts taking to the stage. We’ll cover them tomorrow (but naturally a bit of Molly is going to sneak in at the end of the podcast). Today is time to look back at the last tech rehearsals of the second semi-final.

(Update: We had some issues with the file cutting out after Macedonia – the audio has been re-uplaoded now, please try again)

    Why does the podcast end with Macedonia?

    Same is true with the itunes version of the podcast, it ends mid-sentence in the discussion about Macedonia.

    Manchester? I suspect there would be lots of competition for hosting a UK show in 2015 – even assuming it’s only for arena’s with 10000 seats or more, there could even be a show in Leeds or Sheffield! It’s unlikely we in Bristol will have our arena by next year…

    After having read and listened to all the enthusiastic comments on Molly’s first rehearsal on many fan sites, I really look forward to watching Molly on Saturday now.
    (I never watch rehearsals because I want to have the surprise element when watching the entries live.)

    These comments are a reminder that the released clips are very misleading indicators of how things will appear on screen.

    Happily, much more positive overall.

    Oh, you sounded way to enthusatic there. But I will say this, If Sweden will not make it to the final the UK will stand a chance to gether all the love that is out there for Sweden and we will have a similar situation like in 2010 with Lena.

    Podcast now works perfectly thanks!

    It is strange hearing people sound enthusiastic about the UK entry. This is the first truly decent song we’ve had in 12 years and I hope it delivers on the hype on Saturday.

    *sigh* ‘the dancer from Lithuania’ – you should all know him! My friend Sarunas was a ‘member’ of InCulto back in 2010. He was dragged into the group to help them with their choreography. You should all go and say hello to him. He’s lovely 🙂
