Here is an interesting account from a Nightwish fan that attended the concert in Chevrolet Hall in Belo Horizonte, Brazil where Anette left the stage abruptly...

"Yes, I was there :O and it was a bit weird because everyone still wants to know what happened... the guy from their staff said that she left the stage because of the smoke that has almost asphyxiated her. Some people said that the crowd was calling Tarja's name and it had hurt her, some people said that she had an "emotional moment" because of her divorce and her son... it was really strange when she left... Tuomas was about to kick his keyboards and Marco caught his vodka and drunk almost a half bottle in one gulp :O
After that, they played While Your Lips Are Still Red (without Emppu) and Symphony of Destruction. Said bye bye and left the stage..." Courtesy of my friend Isabella
