Peta2 interviews Emilie

Peta2 has an exclusive new interview with Emilie up on their site — check it out here. EA talks about her vegan diet, animal rights issues, her rats, and more. (There's also a contest at the bottom of the page open until March 31, which you can enter to win a copy of the Asylum book and more!) All in all, this is a very different style interview and is definitely worth checking out.

Cancelled Shows

The next few shows on the European tour have been cancelled:

We are very sad to announce that Emilie Autumn has today been struck down with Tracheolaryngitis. This is basically a serious infection (and subsequent inflammation) of the voice-box and windpipe and yes, it is as painful as it sounds!! Emilie is currently unable even to speak, let alone sing or perform, and she is under strict doctor's orders to rest totally and not use her voice at all for the next three or four days minimum. Obviously it would be impossible to perform her usual show under such conditions, so we have no choice but to cancel the shows in Graz, Vienna, Prague, Bratislava and Innsbruck . This is not a step we take lightly, and while we understand that muffins will be disappointed, we also hope that they will understand and join us in wishing her a full and swift recovery.

The rest of the scheduled shows will take place as planned, and we will be announcing rescheduled dates as soon as possible. Please visit this topic on the forum, or go to emilieautumn.com for future updates.
