Amy Winehouse Concert Cancelled

Mon, 11 May 2009 06:37:24 +1000

Amy Winehouse has had to drop out of a show on the weekend, but not because of illness.

Amy had to prematurely end a concert in the Caribbean because of "technical difficulties".

The singer had started performing at the St Lucia Jazz Festival this weekend, her first appearance in front of an audience in months.

But the 25-year-old Rehab star was forced to abandon the gig because of bad weather and technical problems, her spokesman confirmed.

They said: "Circumstances beyond anyone's control meant that this special show did not go as planned."

He added that Winehouse would like to "express her disappointment" that the gig ended.

A statement said: "Amy would like to express her disappointment that weather forced the abandonment of her show at the St Lucia Jazz Festival last night.

"The set started well, but as the heavens opened, a number technical difficulties occurred on stage, culminating with the lighting rig failing for two songs.

"In addition, rain began to flood the technical wings at the side of the stage which caused sound problems. Amy and the band tried to soldier on but the set had to be cut short.

"Amy is very disappointed as St Lucia has been wonderful to her and its people have welcomed her with open arms, but circumstances beyond anyone's control meant that this special show did not go as planned."

But fans at the concert criticised her performance, with one local resident, who called himself Ben, saying her singing was "painful".

He added: "What a wasted talent."

At one stage Winehouse appeared to forget the words to a song and told the crowd, "Sorry, I'm bored".
