I need a country able to host a great NF in December...seriosuly, what sort of Christmas is a Christmas in which there is no ESC in it?

Belarus or Albania? These two countries will probably have their NFs around Xmas.

I imagine Ukraine would probably also have theirs in December, as I think they have in previous years (though I'm not sure I'd call the Ukrainian NF 'great'... they seem to always pick some heap of shit which is then revamped into something good over the following months). We should also at least get the performance videos from Malta, since those seem to come out late-November or early-December each year. Macedonia had theirs in December last year too, but... did I hear something about them abandoning Skopje Fest again, or am I imagining that?

Either way, hopefully we'll get at least something (though unfortunately none of the big flashy Scandinavian ones, which seem to all be reserved for March or something. Meanies).

Yes, I think Macedonia is no longer using Skopje Fest as a NF again. I don't know if Ukraine will do a NF as early this year, I think there's not enough time to organize everything til December, but who knows.
