I was looking for information on JUMP THE GUN. I was surfing the official Eurovision website and came across the fact that they represented Ireland in 1988, only to remember this band performed at my wedding in Dublin in 1996 - So if you have any info on them now, please forward it on!! Cheers and Thanks, Up Guinness!!

Greeetings to all out there. Great to look back and to see who was in the bands with me long ago. I'll bet there are hundreds out there who still don't remember who or which band they played with. Tee! hee! hee! Ask Jack Daniels or John Power or Mog a don!

Hi , I am fan of Maria Christian with his song " Wait until the weekend comes " ( Eurovision 1985 ) , especially his voice , she is so beautiful to me...I'm looking to buy this song or Maria Christian's cd ( , if it exist...) . There is nothing so frustrating as searching for records or old records you aren't sure exist . Could you help me ? If you have any information about Maria Christian's life or career , please email me . I ask myself where she is now , the Eurovision star of the past ? After the contest , what did she do ? Did she release a new recording or international album , or did she start a solo career ? " Wait until the weekend comes " is a very beautiful song , i was greatly convinced this song was the most promising , the obvious winner , but unfortunately... Maria Christian is a truly marvelous singer , with an intense , passionate singing style that really soars with the right material . It's a shame she isn't better known in France . Any information would be greatly appreciated . Best Regards .

Answer: Hi Nguyen, and thanks for stopping by the website. Unfortunately, we do not have any information about Maria, although we appreciate your interest. We suggest to post a query on our free bulletin boards and we will try our best to uncover more information about her career. Good luck in finding her music and thanks again for visiting our website. Anyone else know what happened to Maria?
