Oh. My. God.
God forgive me for saying this as a Nightwish fan, but If this is true, people will lose respect for Anette.
I cannot blame them.
Bruce Dickinson and Iron Maiden got pelted with eggs and other objects from Sharon's goons at OzzFest. Maiden finished the show. Hell, a pipe bomb blew up in Madison Square Garden in 1986. Bruce Dickinson threatened to walk out. Maiden finished the show.
Tarja Turunen was sexually assaulted by a fan ON STAGE in Mexico. She STILL came back and finished the show. I have to give her at least that. And, if she did not, who would have blamed her?
Anette walked off because people were giving her the finger and yelling "Tarja"? You must be kidding me? I've seen Toni Kakko, Timo Kotipelto, even Kahn being given the finger from time to time. They never walked off. Michael Schenker went on stage several times smelling like a Courvoisier plant, sometimes even carrying the bottle, falling down fully crocked. Yet as bad as he sounded, he always tried to finish the show.
Sorry, Anette. Nightwish is not some bullshit cover band like Alyson Avenue. You are in the big leagues now. You need to develop some thick skin, or you will be run out.
I cannot defend her on something like this.
