Amy Winehouse’s comeback concert at the St. Lucia Jazz Festival was defeated by heavy rain and technical glitches, her spokesman said.
“Circumstances beyond anyone’s control meant that this special show did not go as planned,” the spokesman told BBC on Saturday.
Winehouse, 25, cut Friday night’s concert short after forgetting the words to a song and telling her fans, “Sorry, I’m bored.” One local resident, identified only as Ben, described Winehouse’s singing as “painful” and her talent “wasted,” BBC reported.
Shortly after Winehouse started her concert, heavy rain set in and technical difficulties began to occur, including the failure of speakers and a lighting rig to work, her spokesman said.
