A rewatch TIMETABLE

[Suomi]

In 2 weeks or so.

Midweek or Saturday?

 

[Suomi]

I just found out you can watch MFs in the SVT site simply using Hola Oh dear, I so need this. If only I could find a way to download them.

yeah it’s very frustrating that they’re just waiting there, but I don’t trust VPNs

 

[Zu]

I think it would be a lovely birthday gift for @OutSynk if we could collectively rewatch all of this year’s amazing Eesti Laul presentation including the semis

 

[Alla]

Midweek or Saturday?

Whenever Penelope is busier.

 

[Suomi]

Could I put in a request for old Eurovisions on the late Saturday rewatches and national finals on the midweek ones? I'm much less interested in the National finals and I'm not going to be watching the late midweek rewatches anyway.

yes, I can swap them around as long as there’s no strong objections?

I was thinking to celebrate Kala is a brand new mod we could binge a 24 hours marathon of X Factor Malta.

 

[Zu]

Also I’m thinking Lithuania 2007 FULL NATIONAL SELECTION. It might well go on for 63 hours but I just can’t wait to get frugging to Slapjack’s ‘Lust And Sexy Shadows’ and of course ‘Feel Your Lips’ by BARBÉ-Q

No, I’m good. If you had said 2017.

I would suggest putting Great British Song Contest 97 after Song For Europe 81 this Saturday as I worry that an hour long extra won't be enough for the more deranged parts of the group to pass out in a pool of their own vomit.

We'd then have space on 25 April to watch something horrid like Eurovision 1991, unless Alla wants that for his extravaganza.

 

[lolly]

Sorry. A Song For Europe 1981 can stay as I know you've been trying to get that on for a couple of weeks but AFTER THAT can we mainly have old Eurovisions on the late Saturday rewatches.

Or we COULD watch A Song For Europe 1981 tonight or tomorrow (it's only 55 minutes long), and have the 1981 ESC on Saturday after the main show. That would still happily fulfil my birthday requirement.

I appreciate that may be the sort of CRAZY TALK that brought us here, though.

Maybe ASFE81 after their silly Madonna thing tomorrow night?

 

[Alla]

Which year was Sinitta in A song for Europe? We need that!

 

[lolly]

Maybe ASFE81 after their silly Madonna thing tomorrow night?

I think this sounds like a good plan.

So A Song For Europe 81 Friday night, about 10.30/11pm - after Madonna Girlie Show

ESC 81 Saturday 18th, after the main one.

That then leaves the midweek later show on Weds 22nd free - would that work for one of yours, @Alla, or is yours more PRIMETIME?

@Suomi, can this be accommodated?

 

[Alla]

If we run out of days we could always do MULTISCREEN. Kala to organise a training course

 

[Suomi]

Yes I will edit!

 

[Alla]

I wouldn't dare to call a MF related show primetime, given how some talibans react to anything MF related I'm working on it and it will be sensational, but do not cast pearls before swine.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Thanks for organising @Suomi.

SAD we've had to resort to ADMINISTRATION.

Are you going to take that slot, then?

 

[Alla]

Are you going to take that slot, then?

Ok, yes. But I'm ok with whatever you give me.

 

[lolly]

Ok, yes. But I'm ok with whatever you give me.

No - your choice!

 

[ButterTart]

yes, I can swap them around as long as there’s no strong objections?

Yeah sounds good, whatever pulls in the punters.

 

[Alla]

No - your choice!

I said YES, but open to trade if needed

We learnt that lesson during Scavenger Hunt. There are enough of us here who will absolutely love it, so don't worry about c8ering to the h8ers.

 

[lolly]

1983

Not sure if the whole show is on youtube, but her performance certainly is.

 

[Alla]

Yeah, I've seen her performance, but that's all I ever saw.

 

[Suomi]

Okay @lolly , @Alla , @dmlaw - have a look and seen the amendments work for you - I have changed the Saturday rewatches to be an ESC from the 80s, and put the other options on the midweek.

 

[dmlaw]

All of that suits me. Excellent work, Suomi.

 

[Alla]

I need the option to exchange it with TGBSC 97 next Wednesday if I don't have it ready, other than that fine.

 

[lolly]

Good for me too

 

[Suomi]

I need the option to exchange it with TGBSC 97 next Wednesday if I don't have it ready, other than that fine.

yep, easily done if needed

 

[ButterTart]

Excellent work, @Suomi
As far STARTING the late night threads, I'm quite serious about appointing someone to do it. What do you reckon?

 

[AGinAg (37)]

yup

 

[lolly]

And can we agree that if anyone strays, we just close or delete the thread?

 

[ButterTart]

yup

Cool. If Suomi or yourself wants to make the thread if you've got a decent link to the show, that's fine by me. I will close any rogue ones that pop up.

 

[win_the_game]

And can we agree that if anyone strays, we just close or delete the thread?

Or we could just ban Pen for 24 hours?

 

[lolly]

Can't believe I'm signing up to a Suomi Masterplan

 

[ButterTart]

Or we could just ban Pen for 24 hours?

I've made arrangements for Pen, don't you worry about that.

 

[lolly]

Because I'm a sad old pervert, I've just watched the 1981 A Song For Europe ahead of the official presentation tomorrow. I'm certainly NOT going to promise you high quality songs, but I will guarantee Wogan scoring fuck ups, a song which I'd completely forgotten Leo Sayer covered and got a top ten hit with a year later, and her from Liquid Gold being even ropier than I remembered.

Plus one of the most sinister, chilling things I've ever seen on stage, Eurovision related or otherwise. And I'm including Rosie Ribbons having a bash at The Winner Takes It All, and The Woman In Black in that statement. Terrifying.

 

[lolly]

Oh, and Madonna The Girlie Show starts at 8pm, and lasts 2 hours. So shall we go at 10.30pm?

 

[Soldi]

I’ll be ready to go as usual, I’ve noticed I pretty much spend my days sat waiting for the next rewatch
