Thanks for sharing!
I decided to not include these dates though - otherwise I need to include the artist announcement of other NFs as well (like Ireland announcing only one aft per day, etc).
I think it's better to keep the calendar clean (like only official song releases/announcements of internally chosen acts and [live] shows).

 

[Chalphon]

Do we have any updates on the caucasus countries?

 

[Mainshow]

Do we have any updates on the caucasus countries?

will be released tomorrow (I just added the date) but and haven't mentioned anything yet - they just said that we will be getting the song "soon" () and "very soon" (). They haven't even scheduled the dates when they were about to announce the entrants/artists. I expect them to just put their songs online on the official Eurovision.tv YouTube channel or Spotify all of a sudden/without prior notice.

Honestly, it's just frustrating

Thnx! Yeah I agree, it is just annoying.
