Eurovision Rehearsals 2022

[Sheena]

Is @VoR the only naysayer? Everyone is raving about the UK elsewhere that I’ve seen, right?

I thought it was REALLY REALLY good and he sounds spectacular but they need to do something about the stage hands behind the crystal thing.

but yes it seems Spain was the best recieved of the big 5. Italy seemed a bit....lacklustre?

 

[Soldi]

The U.K. have started closing in on Sweden with the bookies.

Could they pop them in black ZORB SUITS or whatever they're called?

I'm refreshing this thread so often at the moment I think we should make it live.

They could dress the stage hands in space suits.

Or aliens from outer space!

Done babe

I mean...they´ll obviously work something out for the final but it did make it look a bit clunky in the rehearsal.

It always surprises me how many of the big impressive props are just moved around by stage hands during the performance.

[ButterTart]

They've kept the cutaway shots to the bloke flinging his hands up.

 

[D5K]

I'm going to have to take travel sickness tablets before Saturday's show aren't I?

 

[bypass]

I will say I´m happy for both UK and Spanish fans - lord knows they´ve been patient enough.

 

[Saltwater]

The black sun stands out very much here.

Are you in the press centre @bypass?

Quick - book your hotels for Blackpool 2023.

 

[COB]

Great news!

 

[D5K]

(also I've never been a fan but that Italian preview looks like a right racket).

 

[VoR]

I don’t think Italy are in major contention anymore.

It’s Ukraine, UK or Sweden IMO

Never been a fan of Mahmood’s falsetto but it sounds painful here.

 

[D5K]

UK now ahead of Italy on Betfair Exchange.

[Raining on Me]

Oh god how does one contain the hype enough to not end up in anguished tears come Saturday at 4am when it finally ends.

Well it's all going as well as it can now. I don't like the sound of this guitar thing but maybe it'll look...nice?

 

[ZenGiraffe]

The black sun stands out very much here.

How is it worse!?

 

[Nancy]

Why are there videos of everyone else’s rehearsals but not the UK?

 

[Soldi]

Crikey, I know I’ve been saying LOL ITS CUMMING HOME etc for weeks now but.. could the UK ACTUALLY do it?!

 

[VoR]

Why are there videos of everyone else’s rehearsals but not the UK?

They’re staggered. It’ll be up soon.

 

[ButterTart]

Jesus, those Britvic vocals

 

[Raining on Me]

I still can't believe this is France and not Romania or somewhere. Can't see it troubling the top 3 but it's much needed in the final.

 

[VoR]

It’s going to be so anticlimactic if Ukraine do just end up crushing it on a massive sympathy vote

 

[Lucille]

The lights for Italy are STUNNING.

My mental representation of you for the draw announcement was this meme cat

CYBERMEN!
