Pretty drunk now and going to town in an hour, so not watching it, but did catch the voting part of the semifinals...

Yes, it was The Saint...I can't believe I spent my Saturday night watching that. Still, Wogan was on form as usual, just ripping the piss!

You a Eurovision virgin Aimee?
It's like getting off with someone when you're pissed - seems like a good idea at the time, but you hate yourself in the morning.

XFM have been going on about supporting Lordi for weeks, they've even had them on the breakfast show.
Apparently now Chris Moyles @ Radio 1 is getting on the bandwagon too

Yeah the Finnish newspapers mentioned about that too.

It's nice to see them win, since they were the only act that was even slightly different from the mass.

First time ever that I've been even remotely interested in the contest was when I heard they were gonna participate... Here's hoping that Lordi's victory will bring even more "alternative" (not as in the genre) acts to the competition, and we'll see IDM in there some day.
Gotta say also that the night in town that I mentioned in my earlier drunken post was pretty fun with everyone there going bonkers about Lordi winning, but these days the whole phenomenon is getting highly irritating, as the band is still the only thing that the papers will talk about and that song is blasting everyhere nonstop.

That would indeed rule.

Plus they might even have a chance of winning too...
