If you live in the US and have never watched Eurovision, it's streaming on Peacock & YouTube. It's the Superbowl for theater kids. 4 hours of performances and politics that range from the mundane to the indescribable to WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK AM I WATCHING RIGHT NOW. It's amazing. It starts at 3pm EST - ThreadSky

Starts at 8pm here. Me & the wife have been drinking since 2pm. The only way for me to get through Eurovision….

Who the fuck watched Eurovision sober???

yorkaway.bsky.social•5 days ago

Happily I never have! I give two hours before the wife’s dancing round the living room and I’m watching something on YouTube with my headphones in.

KAJ FTW! Yksi, kaksi, kolme, sauna!

In Europe we boycott it because of Israel.

I was wondering about that..

My daughter just moved back to the states and she'll be thrilled to hear this, thanks

At least two gay bars in the Castro (SF) are having ESC viewing parties - one of them already has a line out the door

There’s a themed episode of Doctor Who based on Eurovision up on Disney+ right now!

windelina.bsky.social•5 days ago

It’s the 69th one this year

(Nice)

Eurovision is the equivalent of a Dali painting in music format + sequins, and then you add about 2000 years of brutal conquest wars, backstabbing and historical bad blood to the mix.
At the end you get 12 points awarded in a very accented English. No actual blood gets spilled.

Begging everyone to stream from the Swedish broadcaster STV or YouTube, the audio quality on peacock is noticeably horrible and the contestants are much better than that! I promise!

jackkoebnig.bsky.social•5 days ago

Watch it every year ... and regret it e-v-e-r-y year 😛 15 mins and counting.

Unfortunately the entry from Malta has had to change their Song title and lyric … 🤣

Watching it here is absolutely a riot.

Any contest that brought us Vampires Are Alive is worth your time:

I don't want to mislead you that Eurovision has horror in it but in the year 2007, it had vampires and they were alive.

Last year a witch queen dry fucked a demon in a summoning circle!

The country of Cornwall refuses to take part because the local economy couldn't afford to host it thanks to Brexit.

What we need is Cornexit!!

I still think Sweden did the best summary of Eurovision song composition in the middle-of-the-show act for the 2016 final: https://youtu.be/Cv6tgnx6jTQ?si=4CrbonPStBgj8b2V

Fever dream entertainment.

joecorey3rd.bsky.social•5 days ago

They tried to do a us version but it stunk because the producers didn't want anyone conjuring demons on stage

andcam.bsky.social•5 days ago

It is *the* largest live music show in the world. I heard the director interviewed recently, someone who has directed an Olympic opening ceremony, and he said Eurovision dwarfs that as a logistical exercise.

BTW if you want help with the drinking game my friend has been doing this for yeeears. @eurovisiondrinking.com

If you haven't seen Eurovision coverage with Claire Edwards' BSL interpretation, you haven't seen Eurovision 💜

SAUNA!

microbear.bsky.social•5 days ago

This is such an American way of describing something beyond your own border incorrectly 🙄🙄🙄. ‘For theatre kids’ 🧐🧐

First time getting to see it!

I still remember the first year you discovered it and I put a vote in for you 😁

It's wild and wonderful. I watched Eurovision for the first time at a hostel in Iceland, full of Europeans from all over the continent, and there is no way to beat that as an introductory experience.

tantekatt.bsky.social•5 days ago

I'M STILL PISSED ABOUT THE DISQUALIFICATION OF THE NETHERLANDS

Because Europapa was really really good.

But also very very happy with last year's the winner.
