Vilnius, Lithuania - Although ten TV shows were planned at the beginning, LRT decided to extend Eurovision euphoria in the country by adding two more episodes of the Eurovision marathon. Until 1st of March, we are going to enjoy more performances of the competing songs. Tonight, in the Show #8, all finalists performed two entries. But only five of them managed to qualify for the next show.
This time contestants: Ieva Zasimauskaitė, Mia, Vaidas Baumila, Monika Linkytė, Martynas Kavaliauskas and Vilija Matačiūnaitė had to appear on stage twice, before their performances were evaluated by the Lithuanian and international jury (by TV audience across the country as well).

Traditionally, LRT has changed the cast of Lithuanian panel again. Tonight, Vytenis Pauliukaitis, Sigutė Stonytė, Edmundas Seilius and Ramūnas Zilnys, were among the members of the jury.
