I've seen everything till Sweden. Macedonia was totally spoilt by operators. It had to start 5 times due to technical reasons, and on screen it was complete mess. The photos etc will be available only tomorrow from me, sorry for that and see you later.

Now is running on screens and Ahoy. It starts with dancers under the rain near Ahoy and moves into the hall. "We're the voices, we're the future" are the only lyrics in "Water Anthem". Then the performers are entering the stage greeted in their national languages.

We've got practically no new information. It was confirmed that there are 43 countries applying for Eurovision 2008... Most important parts from the press-conference will be available along with other videos at:

Right now there is rehearsal of the joint song "One World" ungoing. We're not allowed into the hall, but finally a screen in press-center is running. Song, despite having good message is rather poor and in minor tone, though it features very difficult choreography, probably to make kids more tired after their performances...
