Skin's performance at the Cornetto Free Music Festival cancelled at Last Minute

Today, 25th June, 2006, Skin was set to perform in at the in Cornetto Free Music Festival in Naples. Due to unknown circumstances (to us), Skin said she was "put in a rediculous situation" so was unable to perform. In crazy Skin style, it appears that she trashed the dressing room, too ;-)

A message from Skin left on Skinmusic.net reads:

Firstly I would like to appologize to everybody disappointed at not being able to see me perform at Naples this evening. I tried everything I could to be able to go on stage but this was made impossible at the last minute and I was put in a ridiculous situation. I am bitterly upset and angry especially as we had rehearsed special songs exclusively for my Napolitan fans who have always been close to my heart. I also would like to appologize to whoever has to clear up my dressing room - I kind of lost my temper! I do look forward to my gig at Arrezzo Wave where I will have a proper chance to rock out! All my Love Skin
