We’re live-heckling the Eurovision this year

Malta participates tonight in the Eurovision semi-final ahead of Saturday’s finals – but MaltaToday has nobody to cover it because the rest of our newsroom is very busy doing important stuff (like counting our shoes).

So we call the cavalry: music journalist turned satirical playwright Wayne Flask (who hasn’t watched the EV for at least 10 years) will be liveblogging (liveflogging?) the event for us tonight.

People who are easily offended are invited to... well they’re uninvited.

The live-blog starts tonight before proceedings kick off at 9am from Stockholm (yeah, but we're doing it from behind a desk in San Gwann...)

Wayne Flask. He's shaved the beard since this photo was taken...
