Amy Winehouse Booed Off Stage in Serbia, Cancels Part of European Tour

I spent three years in L.A. going to concerts, nearly every weekend, and the only performer I can recall on stage this drunk was Darby Crash of The Germs. He could sing, no matter how wasted, but he died from a drug overdose in 1980, just a couple days after the last time I saw the band play. I've never seen Amy Winehouse, but this is just sad. It's all sad, the drugs, the lost promise, the death. At the Independent UK, "They know that she's no good... Amy Winehouse booed off stage in Serbia," and Los Angeles Times, "Amy Winehouse cancels part of European tour":

  1. Shane McGowan - I'm trying to recall a time when he was sober on stage...

  2. I listened to a couple of her videos on YouTube. My impression: a tattoo-festooned druggie who is homely and can't sing.

  3. This woman is still around? I think the last I heard of her was about 2007...and she was hideous then. She hasn't gotten any better since. Awful, just awful.
