Just started reading Best Served Cold and when I see the word 'Talins' I can't help but think about Tallinn (the Estonian capital) all the time

Joker Out, who rose to popularity from the Eurovision Song Contest, starts off their European tour in Finland. A unique friendship was also born during the contest with Käärijä

The Nordic gigs may also feature a tourist, Käärijä.

Original text and interview: Niina Mäenpää

A gold record from Finland, fans camped outside the venues from the early hours of the morning, the new song Everybody's Waiting streaming at a fast pace. Slovenian indie rock band Joker Out are going strong. The band, who emerged from last year's Eurovision Song Contest, have been super-popular in their home country for a long time, but it was the Eurovision Song Contest that blew them up.  

The European tour, which kicks off at the House of Culture this weekend, will run well into April. The band, who won a gold record  in Finland for their Eurovision song, Carpe Diem, will be coming to Helsinki for the second time. 

"We feel at home in Finland, and last time it was very cosy for us. Finns and Slovenians have a lot in common", says singer Bojan Cvjetićanin in a remote interview. 

Liverpool's Eurovision Song Contest not only left them with Europe-wide popularity, but also something else unique - a friendship with Jere Pöyhönen, aka Käärijä.

"Buddies for life. In all the Eurovision hype and chaos, we managed to find a very close friendship, and that is something truly unique", says Bojan.

After the weekend in Helsinki, the tour continues to Tallinn, Estonia. Käärijä will jump on board. 

"Jere will be joining us as tourists because he has some time off. We are definitely going to spend a lot of time together during those days", Bojan says. 

"Hopefully I'll get to the sauna in Finland too! I'm really looking forward to the gigs, and as Jere says, it's crazy, it's party."

See embed video on the original article: watch Joker Out reminisce about their experiences in Finland and Bojan imitating Käärijä.

Joker Out was seen at this year's UMK as Slovenia's point presenter, and the Nokia Arena went wild as Bojan, bassist Nace Jordan and drummer Jure Maček took the screen to present the points - Bojan wearing a green Käärijä shirt.

How did it feel to make an arena full of Finns scream remotely?

"We just hoped that our internet connection would last", drummer Jure laughs. 

The Nokia Arena was a special place for us, as the last time we saw the arena was when we drove past it during our gig in Tampere. Jere joked that, one day we'll make this arena, Bojan imitates his friend's rally English. 

So maybe a joint tour?

"Maybe we do, maybe we do, we’re gonna plan it now..." Bojan grins.

What is Joker Out?

Slovenian indie band, which describes their music as shagadelic rock ‘n’ roll

Members: singer Bojan Cvjetićanin, guitar players Kris Guštin and Jan Peteh, bass player Nace Jordan and drummer Jure Maček.

Best known for Eurovision 2023, where the band jumped to popularity with their song Carpe Diem.

The new single ‘Everybody's Waiting’ tries a new musical direction and tells the story of the downsides of life in the crossfire of demands. The music video was directed by Bojan Cvjetićanin.

At the House of Culture Joker Out will play on Saturday 2nd and Sunday  3rd of March 2024. Saturday's concert is sold out, but there are still some tickets available for Sunday's extra show. Tickets on Lippu.fi.

What will our tour wife do all day, waiting for his husband to get back from the war?

Will he get him some surprises to unwind? Will he be his buddy’s shadow? Is he finally gonna learn another JO song? Will he practice pronouncing Nace’s actual name after Bojan spent the whole night before teaching him? (He had watched the way Bojan’s lip moved so well)

Tell me, what do you think he will be doing in the downtime?

Thank you for the ask! In this essay I will…

Oh, Jere will definitely be the bestest tour wife there ever was. Needless to say, he watches all the concerts backstage and each day picks a new song to try to sing along to, discreetly glancing at the writing in his hand so as not to make it too obvious that he’s still learning. But the writing is smudged and he’s still practicing pronunciation, so he sings ”Usa car vem, in car sam, je ta napoli”. But that’s okay, because he’s trying his best <3

When the gig is over, (and the routine hugs and kisses and ”you were amazing babe” done), he runs back to the tour bus, while the guys shower, to finish the preparations he started earlier. He makes sure to fluff Bojan’s pillow and sprays it with some calming lavender oli because he knows it will help Bojan sleep better (besides sleeping in his arms ofc) <3

He places Bojan’s favourite bear slippers next to the bunk (dusted and aired) and, after wearing it for a while, he folds the hockey wife jersey on the bed, having sensed from Bojan’s mood earlier (and listening to him sing Everybody’s waiting) that it’s one of those days and Bojan needs some extra comfort <3

Then he looks up last-minute tips online how to give the perfect shoulder/back/feet/hand/THIGH massage (he LOVES massaging Bojan’s thighs, but he’ll do whatever massage his man wants). Earlier in the day, he spent a few hours shopping for a few essentials, like a dozen different massage oils, because he wants to make sure that his Bojan has all the options he could ever want <3

But Jere also spends some time in each city to find the perfect silly little trinket he can gift to Bojan, and that Bojan finds on his pillow after every concert <3

From Tallinn, Jere got Bojan a key chain with two hearts intertwined. From Krakow and Malmö, he got magnets, the first with a donut on it, saying ”Donut forget that I love you”, and the second with two tomatoes holding hands, saying ”I love you from my head tomatoes”. And a few days ago in Hamburg, he bought Bojan and himself matching half heart necklaces. (”Because you come here to record and then you go back Ljubljana, but I have work and I not see you then, but I want you remember that I’m always here”) <3

Lastly, he makes sure that all of Bojan’s favourite snacks are waiting for him, neatly in different bowls. And if he still has time, Jere continues learning the lyrics to Vse kar vem (and this time he gets them right!) <3

When the boys arrive:

Kris: ”Oh thanks Jere, these are my favourite!” *reaches for the bowl containing TV Mix sour candies*

Jere: *slaps his fingers* ”This only for the Bojan, get your own!”

This happens every night with one of the boys, but Jere always gives up in about 15 seconds, because he loves the others too and then gives them all the treats <3

eesti dashcon'23 pt.1

let's say we organize a dashcon in Tallinn. details to be ironed out by a series of polls, anon asks, and DMs to @deactivated-662bce (since this blog doesn't have DMs anymore). I will do my best to rent a ball pit (urine free), but realistically it would be just a hangover hangout in a pub, or a pancake party at my place, if there's <35 attendees.

probably some evening late march or april.

remember - i cannot see who voted, only the count.

Eurovision 2003: Welcome to Riga!

Hello from Riga where they're not only celebrating autumnal colours but also the joys of stop-motion animation and the still frame. The venue is the Skonto Hall in Riga, capacity 6,500. Given everyone is seated, it's probably a little bit less than that - Riga, like Tallinn is staying on the smaller side of things.

Like last year, there were concerns about financing, but like last year, these proved to be unfounded. In fact, it looks like a lot of money has been spent - nearly all the elements look like some thought has been given as to how best to make the most of what money they had and interesting artistic and design choices have been made.

The whole stage feels bigger - the entire thing looks about three times larger than last year with a swathe of stage space to fill and a good view for the whole audience. There's a suspiciously soft blue curtained backdrop which I'm sure will come in to play later on.

The EBU have relegated Switzerland and Finland again - the yo-yo nations of Eurovision in this relegation era. Missing alongside them are Lithuania, Denmark and FYROM. There are slightly fewer relegatees this year because Eurovision has become in bigger in one important way. 2003 sees the competition increase in size to 26 entries for the first time, allowing more countries to take part, relegating fewer and finally achieving Eurovision's ideal size.

One other major new welcome is to Ukraine! It's their debut this year. How are they going to settle in to this new Eurovision setting? Maybe they will become another first time winner like Estonia and Latvia in the two proceeding years.

After last year dubious voting breakdown, the contest is back to the "100% televote" era. That means there are still three counties using juries, but there's no 50/50 jury/televote countries and 23 of the 26 are on pure televoting - the most there's ever been.

The introduction doesn't (initially) take us on a tour around Riga. Instead we dive straight in to this year's chief stylistic decision. Plasticine or modelling clay stop-motion animation with a large number of clay flowers blooming all over the place in lurid colour. Models move to meet, embrace and kiss spreading the message of the love.

After meeting the hosts, we discover the second major choice which is the montage/collage of still photographs used to take us on journeys. The two hosts take us on personal tours of their Riga and their childhoods. This is at once a good idea, showing us a personal love of a city that they can put on screen keeping the tourist boards happy as well demonstrating a deeper connection to the host country than we usually get. However those still image montages are going to get tiresome very quickly...

We also go on another tour of Europe (and space) with Elton John greeting us from Vienna, Lys Assia returns to Eurovision to say hello and a live link-up with the International Space Station says hello from orbit. This competition is really going places!

Our hosts are last year's winner Marie N, and Renārs Kaupers lead singer of Brainstorm, Latvia's 2000 entrants. He becomes the only person (I know of) to have both hosted Eurovision and performed at the Glastonbury Festival. They make the usual awkward hosting couple but also are possibly the best looking and best dressed hosts ever. That mustard suit - wow.

hi! im an American who desperately despises living here while paying taxes that fund wars n thinking abt emigrating to estonia; any thoughts? :)

Heya!!

I'm very glad you want to move here because I think Estonia can be a great place to live, but it depends very much on the circumstances.

For instance, the prices in estonia are quite high (though they seem to be getting lower again? It's hard to tell), but in more rural areas they're lower. The problem with rural areas tho, is that they're less likely to be speak English and more likely to be racist if you happen to be a poc. I also recommend getting out of Tallinn if you can, or at the very least keep away from Lasnamägi and Mustamäe. They're the parts of the city where russians are the majority and you'd have to learn russian as well to live there.

I do heavily recommend you do your best to learn Estonian because trust me, Estonians will immediately like you way more, even if its awful at first.

If you're planning to go to university, I would obviously recommend the university of tartu, which on top of being in my hometown is also free. I recommend Tartu just in general because you won't even need a car if you were to live there. Everything is in walking or biking distance and you have everything you need right there.

I also have to warn you that Estonians may appear rude or cold at first. I've been told by tourists that we appear apathetic. It's a cultural thing and I wouldn't take it personally, but some people use that as an excuse to be racist and xenophobic and those things can never be excused, so, yknow, keep that in mind. That said, it's not like it'll take years for you to be accepted or sth, it's very possible to make friends here (speaking from experience lol)

Also compared to places like Chicago, the police force us actually kind of trustworthy and the military's budget isn't very over inflated as well, so that's also a bonus of you're coming from the us.

Can't come up with anything else that needs to be mentioned, but if you have any questions then ask! I'll do my best to answer

Strange New Worlds Spoilers

So how far in the future were the Romulans from in this episode? Is it from Picard era? Is this another Romulan time travel thing blaming Starfleet for the Supernova like what created the Kelvin Timeline? (Nero specifically blamed Spock though)

Are they from the Temporal Cold Wars explored in Enterprise? Which was definitely farther in the future than Picard but not as far as Disco S3+. The thing she used to kill herself reminded me of the thing the Tal Shiar/Zhat Vash officers did in S1 of Picard except not quite so weapon-y. I know this isn't Zhat Vash I'm just saying it reminds me of Romulan tech from around the supernova and beyond that period of time which could lead back to Nero and the supernova (plus I mean they covered Khan in the Kelvin timeline although clearly differently than they do in this episode).

They mentioned Temporal Investigations which we know existed by DS9 era, although I got the impression they were much less getting-involved-y. Less "protect the timeline by actively preventing changes" and more "investigate time travel incidents of Starfleet officers to make sure they upheld the Temporal Prime Directive to the best of their ability" at least from how they were in Trials and Tribble-ations. Much less Crewman Daniels Time Agent-y where he goes around trying to preserve one specific timeline. Which means the Department of Temporal Investigations could later shift into the people fighting the Temporal Cold War stuff seen in Enterprise and this is an in-between state kind of?

Are the Romulans who the Future!Federation (what the Federation evolves into at least) at Daniels' time the main or one of the main enemies to Daniels' people during the Temporal Cold War? Does it have any connection to the Romulan drama going on in Picard era? We know from Disco that the Romulans and Vulcans reunify in the future after the Temporal Cold War(s). It seemed implausible that they were the main antagonists during that war to me. And the fact that Kirk was born in space like Kelvin!Kirk (but obviously not the same as AOS) and the Romulan thing kind of points to another Nero-like thing? Maybe?

How does this connect with like, Tallinn's people from Picard S2 that is implied to be the same time travel people as Gary Seven from TOS? Also I know Prodigy is canceled and probably won't have anything to do with this but I wouldn't mind seeing the Prodigy time travel mystery tie into this

Also, when did this take place in the past? Obviously early 21st century but like did they ever say a year?

Wasn't there an episode of TNG I think where there was some kind of time travel organization but it turned out the guy they encountered was lying about being a part of it and he stole the equipment from someone from the future but he was from the past? I don't remember that episode clearly enough to remember if the people he got it from could have been tied into this thing or not. I am way too tired to remember so many details about Star Trek's time travel stuff across all series.

Old Town Square Estonia

Tallinn, Estonia - ‎12 ‎April ‎2020. Corner of the town hall square in the old town, where the oldest pharmacy in Europe is located. The most picturesque places in the city. Medieval architecture.

Why you need to visit Tallinn, Estonia

Tallinn may once have been famed as a cheap go-to destination for rowdy stag parties, but there is so much more to this beautiful city than that. Filled with pastel coloured houses and pretty squares, Tallinn is a photographer’s dream.

Wander Around the Old Town Square

The best thing about Tallinn’s old town is that is all doable on foot, so you can relax and wander around pretty cobbled side streets in peace. Everything centers on the Raekoja plats (old town square), where you’ll find bars and restaurants aplenty, surrounded by the distinctive tall merchants’ houses on all sides. Visit in winter and you’ll find the town Christmas tree and a vibrant Christmas market.

Walk the Town Walls

Tallinn is a city best enjoyed from above, and what better way to see it than to climb up winding spiral stairs to the top of the city walls? From here you’ll be able to look out over the distinctive red rooftops that make the Estonian capital so charming.

Alexander Nevsky Cathedral

This stunning Russian Orthodox cathedral was built in 1900, when Tallinn was still part of the Russian empire. It was almost destroyed at one point as some Estonians see it as a symbol of oppression, however the beautiful cathedral has now been restored.

Kohtuotsa Viewpoint

The perfect place to get your bearings, the Kohtuotsa viewpoint affords stunning views over the pretty red rooftops of Tallinn’s old town. Only a short walk from the main square, you can’t miss it.

The view from the Kohtuotsa Viewpoint

Kadriorg Palace

A short tram ride from the city centre will take you out to Kadriorg Palace, an impressive 18th century estate complete with colourful facade and exquisite gardens. Built for Peter the Great in 1718, the Russian Tsar used to use the palace as one of his summer residences (although rumour has it that the Tsar didn’t actually stay in the palace, preferring more modest accommodation!).

Coffee and Pastries

Tallinn is a cafe-lover’s heaven, with cute little coffee shops hidden away all over the city. I can highly recommend RØST (they do the most divine pastries) and also the Kalamaja area, where you’ll find the Telliskivi creative city, a former industrial area that now houses Tallinn’s coolest bars, cafes and restaurants.

How to integrate Tallinn into a longer trip

But, did you know that Helsinki is only a 1.5 hour ferry trip away from Tallinn? And that from there you can continue on to St Petersburg, where you can get a special short-term easy Russian visa as a ferry passenger? Or, head in the other direction and hop on a bus to Riga – it’s only 5 hours and the journey goes quickly if you have some good series on Netflix pre-downloaded.
