Well last night was the first of the series of Eurovision nights that the host city of Vienna has created for the delegates, press, fans and local people....
Obviously, as it was the first, the team from www.ESCKAZ.com were mostly going to be there :-) One member went a bit early as the others were still finishing in the press centre but by around 22.15 there were four of the team there, plus folks from the www.escnation.com and www.escgo.com teams, as well as several members of the EBU/Eurovision.tv team.
On arrival it all seemed to start so well, with Eurovision music blasting out from the rather large split level club....we thought that we were in for a great night out.....
However this did not last too long as after about 20 minutes or so the Eurovision music stopped, the club became very overcrowded in the lower ground area and we moved to the upstairs area....at this point we noted the massive queue still to come into the club, none of whom appeared to be officially related to Eurovision in any way....
We persisted thinking that the Eurovision Jam or at least some Eurovision music would start. Or even that some delegations may come along, but sadly no.....so at around 1 a.m. we decided to leave and head back to the apartment.....
Yes we had a great time and thank you to the Host City, Vienna for creating this, but we wanted EUROVISION
