I dont' want to deprive you of the headline of heute.at.
However, the puns are not translatable into English.



A lynx, a panda and a hyena walk into a bar ... :lol:

I'll try:

So luchste Paenda Hyäne den Song Contest ab
Die Pa(e)nda-Dame hat die Hyäne in die Flucht geschlagen.


The tricky word is "luchste ... ab" (Third person singular, past tense). It's not High German but it's analogues to stealing, taking away. And "abluchsen" includes the word "Luchs" which is the lynx. She "lynxed" it, if this were a word that could be used here in similar fashion (which it isn't)

So a Pa(e)nda stole ("lynxed") the Song Contest from the Hyena (like a lynx).

Second sentence is easy:

The Pa(e)nda Lady put the Hyena to flight.

By the way, because it was already mentioned in this thread:
eventhalle_wien_a.5850723.png


New planned event hall Vienna
Capacity: 20,000
Start of construction 2021, completion 2024
Cost: 250 million Euros

Many parking lots for visitors, trucks with stage equipment should be able to drive directly into the hall.

No modesty in this major project. "This arena will make an international sensation as a venue" says the budget chief of Vienna.

An architectural competition will be launched in the second quarter of this year. In any case, the building should not only be functional, but also visually setting an "architectural landmark" .

So Vienna 2024? xyesxheatx12sxlove

No, 2020. There is still the Stadthalle and many other venues in Austria in Wels, Graz, Innsbruck,....;)

Vienna 2024 is quite likely, because Jupiter will be in Pisces in first half of May 2023. Water signs are the best for us (Cancer 2014, Scorpio 2018).
Jupiter is already in Pisces second half of May 2022.

Graz in Styria would be very fitting after PÆNDA is from Deutschlandsberg.

17:45 The inevitable question about Hyäne Fischer.
They only share the "ae". ;)

Hyäne Fischer calls out ORF. ORF's decision-making was "very intransparent". She complains: "It only can come to a decision when one has figured out how to apply. Things should change quite a bit in order to create fairness for young artists."

I'm just very fascinated by how adding a single instrument can change a song's perception.
