Yesterday at the RTÉ studios in Dublin esctoday.com attended the photoshoot for this year’s Eurosong. a special edition of the Late Late show to select the Irish artist for this year’s Eurovision Song Contest.

I attended my first Eurovision Song Contest in 1995, and from 1996 presented daily live reports for radio stations from the event. Since then I have been providing material from everywhere the contest has been held. I also enjoy compiling most of the video materials for three UK ESC events each year. In 2010 I first provided material for esctoday.com.
