Prices will be "flexible"
Belgrade 2008: Ticket reservations in January
Online ticket reservations will be made from January 13-20, according to RTS Executive producer Ms Sandra Suša. "We are about 20 days behind schedule with the tickets", Ms Suša said "they are usually available during the holiday season as it is customary for some people to offer them as Christmas presents". But certain delays were unavoidable due to the change in the format of the contest and the introduction of the two semi finals, according to Ms Susa
Ms Suša assured that tickets will be made available on time and that prices will be "flexible'' due to the two semi finals. The exact cost is not known yet but Ms Suša reassures the fans that they will be cheaper than in Helsinki as "RTS's main objective is not to make a profit from ticket sales".Regular ticket sales will start at a later date when the agreements with the sponsors have been finalised.
Apart from the Big Four and winner Serbia, none of the other participating countries will know exactly in which of the two semi finals they will be placed until the Reference Group meeting on 27-28 January. That could mean that the demand for the semi final tickets will be low until fans know for sure which one their country participates in.

There is an old proverb saying: "You can't make a pie from shit", so I'm afraid they won't be able to improve it much...
Thats not the official logo, I read on magazine an interview with the designer. They will do on his idea but will make the new one. EBU will make the official one (will have an roots from this, but will be improved) and it will be known in January
I think it is official logo already 
Logo is really AWFUL
Didn't they said they will change it ???

Georghi asen Katie Meleu coz she borin in Georgia!! Cmon she will win
Some information are missing from the original interview with Ms Suša.
First of all, she said that there is a delay with ticket sales because RTS signed the contract with EBU in November instead of in September, because of EBU's late decision to hold two semi-finals.
The second thing that she said is that the tickets which were in Helsinki about 300 Euros will cost much less in Belgrade, because RTS is not planning to earn on ticket sales.
Also, she explained that the tickets will be printed after they finally decide who will be the sponsors because they have to put logos on each ticket.
OMG OMG OMG
don't understand nothing... what they mean prices will be "flexible'' ???
I am just wondering will I be able to go and by ticket on my one, and when, and where, or I have to reservate it first.
