Czech Republic CZECH REPUBLIC 2019 - Lake Malawi - Friend of a Friend

[DenizESC]

Omg Mikolas was soooo fuckboi-esque I cringed so much in '18 XD that was the song I disliked most last year!

 

[Mrm]

I have to say I really liked his entry last year, it is much better for me than their entry this year which is just ok...

Still Mikolas is not my fave Czech entry to date..

It is 2007 - Kabát - "Malá dáma"!

 

[RainyWoods]

Aw that music video is so cute Bless its soul.

Same here! Kabát is definitely my most Czech entry so far! 2007 --- time for Czech to bring a fantastic song again ...

original czech republic never existed and they debuted in 2015 as far as i'm concerned lol

 

[Mainshow]

pts - lovely relaxed and hipster-ish 80's throwback sound. I miss a distinctive voice, a more remarkable melody and a more interesting arrangement, though.

 

[Franzilein]

Recently learned he is 30 years old? Mister looks like he just cracked the 18.

I think Lake Malawi did a great job tonight at EiC

Antonín trying to get some sleep in the backstage made me laugh

So looks like there will be some animated "square cubes" after all (visible in the image above in the bottom right parts) and something like "tubes" in the background?

Thanks for the sneaky photos [MENTION=9138]nofuxCZ[/MENTION] ... It seems like I'm on the only one on the hunt for some hints on the Czech staging
I cannot really make much sense of the blue pillars and cubes... it confuses me :?

Jan Bors, the head of the Czech delegation shared this photo on his instagram. I wonder if the frames suggest square-shaped instagram photos and they will have a bunch of cameras shooting each square to create an illusion of an instagram account. Would be cool, but I still cannot imagine how that would exactly work

Also, Lake Malawi were rehearsing today with 3 vocalists. It seems it will be Jakub Gabriel Andel Rajnoch, Adina Vostry, and some called 'Iby and Pop' ...interesting...

 

[Etanna]

It reminds me a little of the concept Benjamin Ingrosso had last year. I just hope they will not make it look like a video too much because that didn't pay off to Benjamin. But if they make it work, it could be really cool! Also they are surrounded by acts that will probably have a more subtle staging so that could also work in Lake Malawi's favour.

 

[SwissKung]

Something as colourful as their live performance in Ukraine will do wonders for them, this is severly underrated by eurofans.

 

[Haverdge]

Thanks for sharing the pics... I was always curious to see how delegations organize their stage shows.

Now I have a better idea of how it's done and what it takes.

 

[honzak11]

The Head of the Czech delegation describes the process of creating a staging at Eurovision in his lengthy post on his facebook profile.

He does not reveal much details about how exactly the 2019 stage will look like, but couple of points are worth mentioning for the Czech fans:
* No dancers at the stage in 2019
* The show places emphasis on "clean lines and fresh graphics"
* and finally, "If everything works out well, it will be the best Czech staging to date with ideas that you have possibly never seen anywhere else yet" --direct translated quotation from his Facebook post.

I'm so exciteddddddddddddd

 

[BorisBubbles]

I suspect they'll go with the idea seen in the video clip: immerse lake malawi in a nondescript social media setting. Should look cool!

 

[crashworld]

I think the social media setting will look really cool if well executed. But it will also look like a joke/amateurish if it's executed poorly. Hopefully it will be the former. I am rooting this to qualify in semi 1.

 

[crashworld]

I am getting more and more confident this song will qualify. The song is really catchy and is very contemporary with a touch of the indie-synth pop sound.

 

[Haverdge]

I really love that Czech Republic is so motivated to take part in ESC and put their all into it!

Glad to have them back!
