Stranger has just spoken to the organisers of the Eden Sessions regarding the Amy Winehouse gig tonight. Will she or won’t she turn up? 

La Winehouse now has a well-publicised history of cancelling gigs at the last minute – so much so that William Hill are currently taking bets on whether the singer will show up in Cornwall tonight (offering odds of 1/2 that she will).

So, according to Eden's press department, the word on tonight’s show is:

"As it stands, the gig is still going ahead as scheduled."

Amy hasn’t arrived on site yet, but organisers remain confident that she’ll be there in good time.  

Keep checking back, as Stranger will provide a final update at 5pm tonight.

UPDATE (17:00):
Amy is currently on site and doing a soundcheck...surely the gig can't not go ahead now?! Best keep her away from the bar, eh?
