Fiona Apple has
written a letter to fans in which she apologizes, and explains her
abortive Roseland Ballroom show, last Tuesday, February 29 (in which the
emotional singer/songwriter left the stage mid-way through her set, after
complaining about the sound monitors). The letter, posted at the Apple fan
site Neverisapromise.com
says, in part: |
Apple goes on to
say that she promises to make it up to her NYC-area fans, although she
"won't play at Roseland," adding, "...actually, the only
other time I ever cut a song from the set was also at Roseland, and for
the same reason. I only cut 'Never is a Promise,' and I felt bad then, but
nothing compared to this. I'll make it up to everyone, I promise. I wish
this didn't happen, but at least now my worst stage-nightmare has already
come true, so it's over with - you gotta figure something like that is
bound to happen at some point to everyone, right?" Er... right. For

time, Apple has yet to reschedule her NYC date, but we'll keep you posted. |
