Lisbon Concert

It was good to see Amy doing her first concert in what seems like forever. She appeared in front of a sell out 90,000 people at the Rock in Rio festival in Lisbon yesterday. Not an easy choice for your first gig back.

In true Amy Winehouse style she was late on stage, depending on which paper you read she might have been up to an hour late. Also depending on which paper you read she may have 'appeared distracted and had visible cuts on her arm and a bandage on her hand'.

It all depends on who you read or listen to but the crowd initially annoyed about her lateness gave her a fantastic welcome when she came on. She had the good grace to apologise for her lateness.

The set list included all the favourites, some classic covers including her Special covers.
It is good to see Amy Winehouse back performing again. To start performing at an outdoor festival in front of 90,000 people takes some guts.
