99... Erm, 48 Bottles Of Whiskey On The Wall

You know that song you'd sing as a child, "99 Bottles Of Beer On The Wall"? It seemed ridiculous, but for some it's apparently not far off.

According to British tabloid The Sun (which you can take seriously or not depending on your point of view), Amy Winehouse apparently ordered 48 bottles of Jack Daniel's whiskey prior to her scheduled appearance at the Bestival Festival on Britain's Isle Of Wight this weekend.

That's not a typo. I did just write the words "48 bottles of Jack Daniel's."

All this has apparently caused the Bestival organizers some worry. As if drinking 48 bottles of whiskey (let's hope she'll share with friends or is stocking up for later because Good God) is bad enough, Winehouse pulled out of a show in Paris, France at the last minute last week, and is now facing legal action over the cancellation. So the fact that she's ordered so much whiskey before a festival performance makes the Bestival organizers a bit uneasy.

"With Amy's record this can mean failure to perform or giving a shambolic performance. Whiskey is better than heroin — but not 48 bottles of the stuff," a festival organizer apparently told The Sun.

Now, I've seen some people doing a lot of heavy drinking in my time, but 48 bottles of whiskey is just beyond ridiculous.
