Amy Winehouse Will Play T In The Park
March 14th, 2008 admin Posted in News |
AMY WINEHOUSE is to perform at this year’s T in the Park and admits: “I wish I could play Scotland every night.”
The beehived singer, 24, has confirmed her date at Scotland’s biggest music weekender to make up for pulling out of last year’s event.
The announcement follows five Grammy award wins for the star who cited “exhaustion” for her no-show last time.
Festival director Geoff Ellis revealed Amy had apologised for missing T 2007 and praised Scots fans on her last trip to Scotland.
She played two Glasgow Barrowland shows last November - just days after hubby Blake Fielder-Civil was arrested for allegedly attempting to pervert the course of justice - and admitted she was blown away by the reception. Despite battling booze and drugs addiction, Amy told Geoff she can’t wait to return to Scotland.
He said: “It’s always been the intention to have Amy come to play T in the Park after what happened last year.
“We didn’t want to put pressure on Amy but she felt really bad about pulling out and, if ever she needed reassurance about how the Scottish public felt about her, playing those two nights at the Barrowland really slammed it home.
