Amy Winehouse scored a much-needed comeback at a British music festival last weekend. The 25-year old recovering addict made a brief guest appearance on Saturday at the Virgin Festival’s Hyland Park venue in Staffordshire, joining 80’s Brit band, ‘The Specials’ for two of their hits. In contrast to last year’s appearance at the same venue which was drowned out by jeers, this year’s introduction by the band as ‘our good friend, Amy,’ was greeted with modest applause. “While living in St Lucia, Amy missed the band’s reunion tour and came to see them,” Amy’s rep told the BBC. “They met backstage and the lads invited her to guest for them. It was her dream come true.” Later that day Amy also shared the stage with Pete Doherty, but did not choose to sing. Back in May, Amy bailed on a scheduled appearance at Island Records’ 50th anniversary concert. A few weeks earlier she walked off the stage in the middle of a concert in St. Lucia because of ‘bad weather.’ One assumes this was the clouds of sarcasm drifting in from the audience, caused by Amy’s repeated inability to remember lyrics she wrote, and telling the fans she was ‘bored’?
