Eurovision 2023 in the UK

...and another being produced by Above The Stag, being presented at Wonderville, Haymarket.
This was on before (last year?) - I didn't see it, but the one review I could find liked it.

I was worried it would be AJ Odudu after the draw. I just can't watch anything she does without muting the volume.

Or Michael McIntyre hosting anything else.

I did worry they’d go for the ubiquitous, untalented and over indulged Alison Hammond. Ditto Rylan Clarke.

I will also be trying for tickets to a rehearsal which is what I went to in Tel Aviv and it was great fun, but I also hold out very little hope! My mum lives on the Wirral so I don't need to find anywhere to stay, but Chester is easily reached via a cheap 45 minute Merseyrail journey and anywhere on the Wirral within walking distance to a Merseyrail station is probably worth considering, though harder to find accommodation. There's a nice marina at West Kirby, beachfront walk at Hoylake (which must have accommodation because of the Royal Open golf which is held there periodically) and Port Sunlight is pretty with a nice art gallery and museum.

Two lives

We're the only ones awake in the whole universe
And I don't know your desert well yet
Maybe it's in a place in my heart
Where the sun is always dull
Where I sometimes lose you
But if I want I'll catch you

We are stuck in such a time
That lifts up the streets
With the sky one step from here
We're the monsters and the fairies
I should call you
Saying to you the things that I feel
But I've run out of excuses
And I don't have defenses anymore

We're a book on the floor
In an empty house
That looks like ours
Coffee with lemon
Against the hangover
You look like a blurry photo
And we screwed up another night
Outside the club
And thank godness we did

If this is the last
Song and then the moon will burst
I will be there telling you that you're making a mistake, you're wrong and you know that
The music doesn't get here
And you don't sleep
And where will you be
Where do you go
When the life, then, exaggerates
All the rushes, the slaps and the mistakes you do
When something stresses you out
I know anyway, you never sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep
What rounds make two lives

We're the only ones awake in the whole universe
Screaming some of the anger on a rooftop
Because no one feels like that
Because no one watches the movies anymore
The flowers in your room
My metal shirt

We're a book on the floor
In an empty house
That looks like ours
We're lost among people
So many words
Without ever getting an answer
And we screwed up another night
Outside the club
And thank godness we did

If this is the last
Song and then the moon will burst
I will be there telling you that you're making a mistake, you're wrong and you know that
The music doesn't get here
And you don't sleep
And where will you be
Where do you go
When the life, then, exaggerates
All the rushes, the slaps and the mistakes you do
When something stresses you out
I know anyway, you never sleep
You turn the light off even if you don't feel like
We sit in the dark shrouded only
In the sound of the voice
Beyond the madness that dances in all the things
Two lives, look at this mess

If this is the last
Song (and then the moon will burst)
I will be there telling you that you're making a mistake, you're wrong and you know that
The music doesn't get here
I know anyway, you never sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep
What rounds mаke two lives
Two liveѕ

They appear to have limited access to the queue to one per Ticketmaster account, so attempts to game the system with multiple Google accounts aren't working. Totally fair, and I'm surprised that isn't done by other companies. However, this being the hopeless Ticketmaster, there are server errors all over the place.

They only seem to be numbering queue positions up to 2000. Mine just has 2000+, so could be millions ahead of me. Don't rate my chances.

Must have been lucky but got straight through and got tickets for the Saturday Grand Final preview at 1pm. Which works perfectly me for me as I won't need to find any accommodation in Liverpool and can be home in time to watch the actual live show that evening

You couldn't choose your seats. I rushed through it so this might not be fully correct but from what I remember it gave me a choice of standing or seated and then it allocated me seats from there

I tried for the final preview but nothing available. Didn't expect to get anything but worth the try
