Like ABBA, Amy Winehouse will also have the right to her own hologram tour. This totally unexpected announcement was made officially a few days ago. Base Hologram teamed with the team that manages the musical heritage of the singer to organize this new round of singing. The studio has already proved its expertise by organizing tours of this kind for Roy Orbison or Maria Callas. According to the press release, a state-of-the-art technology will be used as well as a theatrical scenography to revive its classics, from "Rehab" to "Valerie", from the end of 2019. This project will be done in agreement with the father of the late star : "It's a dream for us. To see her sing again is so special that we do not have the words to describe this news. My daughter's music has touched millions of people around the world and her hits will continue to resonate with this innovative and groundbreaking experience. "
A tour already heckled
This posthumous tour of Amy Winehouse could be an opportunity for fans to see or see their idol on stage again. Indeed, the performer of "My Own Way" did not give many concerts, because of his very short career. Unfortunately, it was often usual for her to get drunk on stage (she even hits a fan at Glastonbury in 2008) or simply to cancel performances, including two years in a row at Rock en Seine. Be that as it may, the studio says it is very happy to set up this tour, as Base Hologram CEO Marty Tudor says: "It will remind people how much it has contributed to music" . This tour will be done in close collaboration with the Amy Winehouse Foundation, which operates prevention work on drug and alcohol abuse for young people. Tudor hopes to "incorporate a fundraiser and awareness campaign" for the foundation.
However, this announcement has sparked a wave of very negative reactions from fans. "Leave it alone," "A hologram of Amy? As if it had not already been exploited thoroughly like that, "" The Estate is disrespectful, "" Her father will never let her rest in peace "... Here are some of the tweets that could be read in reaction to the announcement of this tour. The singer's father justified this first posthumous singing tour explaining that "the fans want something new from Amy, but there's really nothing new," to which a fan snapped, "There there is really nothing new because she is dead. Stop ruining his memory for money.
