Having watched Amy Winehouse at V on Saturday, I can honestly say it was pitiful to watch.She looked like a victim of famine busking for her next fix. She arrived late, she looked s**t, she couldn't talk/sing, her paphetic attempt at dancing was one of the funniest things I've seen for a long time and she clearly didn't have a clue what year it was, let alone what day it was.Utter disgrace. Shoot the junkie and put her out of her misery.The Feeling and The verve were absolutely brilliant though!
