Haider is quite a common surname.
Alice Tumler is my personal favourite for the job as Eurovision host.
Not convinced about Andi Knoll though. He's eyecandy, but I am not sure if he's capable of hosting a non-german show. Besides that, I don't think his jokes would work.
He already has a strong Austrian accent in german, so thinking of him speaking English or French worries me already.

His English seems pretty good in the video I added in the article though. Not sure about French, but Alice would have that covered anyway.

I watched the Federica Falzon interview with Wiwibloggs, and I got an idea for a new rule for the contest. The host country should perform first in the running order and open the show. This way that, if they continue letting the producers decide the running order, the risk of home bias is reduced. Also it'll give the host country a poorer chance at winning again, allaying fears of a cash-strapped host broadcaster. Thoughts?
It surprise me that no one has never even spoke about that the running order draw before could be rigged.
What do you mean? Tbh I prefer that the finalists of each semi pick their numbers instead of a completely subjective draw made by the host broadcaster.

This time, the city that will breathe the purest ESC atmosphere will be Perth, the capital of Western Australia. The organizers of the party will be two truly ESC souls, we’re talking about Kate Hansen and Kohan Ikin. Kohan’s Eurovision’s first time was in Düsseldorf 2011.

If I were you, I would change your Saturday’s plan. This party promises so much fun that you will need to rest until next May. Australia spends nights awake watching the contest live since 1974.

Also, there will be interviews by Terminal Three (http://twitter.com/TerminalThreeTV). The Earlybird tickets cost $20, five more at the door. Tickets include a drink besides a sparkly gift.

Australia working on 'building bridges' to Vienna
Australia working on 'building bridges' to Vienna http://www.escunited.com/home/australia-working-on-building-bridges-to-vienna/
Jessica Mauboy performed in 2014 as part of an Australian interval act. Now SBS want to ‘build bridges’ to Vienna.
It’s no secret anymore that one of the contest’s biggest fans isn’t even taking part in the contest, but SBS of Australia has already announced that it will broadcast Eurovision down under once again in 2015, as part of their 2015 highlights article.
The broadcaster has also confirmed that Julia Zemiro and Sam Pang, the long-standing commentating pair, will be in Vienna once more for the 60th anniversary show and are ‘already working on’ how the country can ‘build bridges’ to Austria.
Surprisingly, the broadcaster hasn’t made a joke about Austria/Australia yet, but with a long way to go until May we’re sure that line will be crossed at some point.
Australia’s relationship with Eurovision has been stronger than any other non-participating nation, and in 2014 the EBU invited the country to perform during the interval act of semi-final 2. Jessica Mauboy sang for the Oceanic country with “Sea of Flags”.

Ok, what are you thinking about?
I'm still waiting for a post of yours without y'all. The same goes for Wiwibloggs articles for that matter.
