It is a yearly contest where countries send one singer or group (no more than 7 members on stage at any one time) to represent their homeland in song. Each country gets about 2 1/2 minutes to strut/sing/gyrate/emote their particular melody and gain audience support (which includes viewers at home who call in and vote). The object is not always to win - the country that wins has to host next year's competition so some countries send really bad entries in order to loose and save the money.
Anyway - Here are some pictures of the group that gathered at Kathleen Burt's house to celebrate, laugh, cry, criticize and be stupefied:
Kathleen never throws a party without a little bit of decoration and this was it!
l to r: Dung (Mary's Friend), Fiona, Elijah & Laura, Simon (way in the back), Christoph, Kathleen, James & Mary (holding Sebastian).
l to r: Ella and Katie on the sofa
Had to add the following picture from Katie. If you look closely I am in the background (tucked in behind Kathleen and Christoph) totally stupefied by the Russian Grannies.To look up the Russian Grannies follow this link: http://youtu.be/BgUstrmJzyc
