| | | I think that's finland you're talking about. 'Lordi' is the name of the hard rock, monster men. Check out what they look like here! I really hope they win! I'm actaully interested in the eurovision song contest. What's happened to me?  |

Hopefully it wears off while you spend your week in Cork.

They did win - I saw the end - it was sort of ironically funny - like the Darkness, Spinal Tap - that kind of thing....?
Certainly better than most of the entries which were more about the shortness of skirts and physical "attributes" of the almost inevitably female, "singers".....

Lordi didn´t make an exception.

| | | | Wow. They won! Good for them. I've met the girl that plays keyboard a few times, nice girl. It was good to see an actual band playing live instruments winning the competition. Although most of the poeple i was talking to in Ireland that voted for them said that it was just 'for a laugh'. They do have a novelty factor, there's no denying it. But, they write their own songs, perform, sing in tune, and put on a show. Pretty good for Eurovision, if ask me. The whole competition is a farce of course, the music is always pretty awful. |
