It has been a while since the official website of Andre (the 2006
representative of Armenia) has been down. The reason as ARMTV
officially says, is that some Azeri and Turks hackers tried to
manipulate the website of Andre. It is true that there is a minority
on the web that are extremely opposed to the entrance of Armenia in
Eurovision. Once again some people try to mix politcs with music.

This is why it would be very interesting to see how they will view
and rate the Armenian entry. Some say that Turkey would never vote
for Armenia, some though dissagree and say that Turkey will vote the
song if it is appealing enough to the public. After all Turkey has
voted its rival Cyprus with high points the past years.

Meantime, Andre prepares his promo tour for Eurovision 2006. The
promo tour will cover the following countries as the Armenian
national broadcaster announced so far: Russia, Moldova, Ukraine,
France and Greece (just informed by ARMTV) while there are plans to
visit two more countries. It is still unknown if Greece will be one
of them. The schedule of Andre is extremely hard because at the same
time he is preparing his third solo album in the meantime.
