Second semifinal is empty again

The second dress rehearsal for the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest Semifinal is now under way, and once again, the hall is approximately 90% empty. Questions definitely need to be answered here, and there are now serious concerns that the semi final tomorrow night will take place in front of a very small crowd.

For the second time today, a full dress rehearsal that was confirmed as sold out to fans attempting to buy tickets has again proved to be almost completely empty. Most of those in the audience are delegation members, journalists and accredited fans. Esctoday.com are investigating the situation and will bring further news as soon as we get a responce from NTU, the National Broadcaster of Ukraine.
