Shirley drunk in Roskilde

news0139.thumbnail.jpgGarbage performed at Roskilde on June 30. Apparently, Shirley was so drunk the band had to stop songs and were forced to abruptly finish the set without a goodbye, after an hour of show.
The normally charming Shirley Manson had damaged her voice and felt it necessary to try fixing the problem with huge amounts of her homeland’s whisky. That resulted in the little lady getting so drunk that she had major problems remembering both set and lyrics. That was clearly annoying for the other band members, who replied by playing both bad and without putting their souls into it. Several times the band stopped a song, simply because Miss Manson started wrong.
