After the second Semi-Final there was a press conference for all the artists that had gone through to the final. All delegations answered to two questions each and then draw their running order for Saturday's final.

Today the Danish representative, Simon Mathew, celebrates his 25th birthday. It happens to be the day of the 2nd Danish rehearsal and on the following press conference he was greeted with three birthday songs, an English, a Danish and a Serbian one.

With still over a week to go before the Eurovision final, today was the sixth day of rehearsals in the Belgrade Arena. One of the favourites for the prize, Armenia, was on stage first.

What was suppose to be the Irish press conference can best be described as a stand up show from their
representative, Dustin the Turkey. He entertained the full conference room with his funny comments. EuroVisionary offers you the full show on video.

Until the end of this week every day offers rehearsals and press conferences. It is becoming a nice tradition that most participants performs a bit at their press conferences - and as usual EuroVisionary offers you a summary of how it came across.

The third day of the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest meant the start for the 2nd semi-final. Hot tipped names such as Euroband, Charlotte Perrelli, Ani Lorak and Ruslan Alehno all gave a little performance on their press conference today.

Day two of the 2008 Eurovision Song Contest offered, just like the first day, a wide variety of performances at the press conferences. EuroVisionary have collected the best bits in a video that includes accoustic and acapella performances and even a Stradivarius.

EuroVisionary presents here a video where you can watch such performances from San Marino, Slovenia, Belgium and Norway.

It is quite common that the participants performs a bit at their press conferences. Some present their own entry, maybe in another version while others gives the audience a taste of what else they have to offer.

Every day, Eurovisionary will be bringing you a summary of all the press conferences held by each delegation soon after they have rehearsed. Today was the first day of rehearsals and Montenegro had the honour of getting things underway.
