The Dutch go 3JS
Posted 17/Jul at 15:15 By Brendan Bonner
Oh Potential and its still 2010 - so it seems the Dutch are send a male 3 piece group to ESC 2011, 3JS.
They remind me of my favourate European group Nek (from Italy) - with the right song the could push the sort of performance that Tom Dice managed this year. Apart from 2009 and 2010 I have found the Dutch have been very unlucky, despite some good songs and performances they have not made it out of the semi finals - still amazed Edsilia didnt make the final in 2007
So hopefully 3JS will get the right song and 50/50 voting will work to balance their chances of making the final
