He said,

"Eddie here. I'd like to apologise for everyone that came to the show tonight. I have no idea what happened. My voice was perfect until the moment I stepped on stage. I'm really, really sorry. I cannot express how grateful I am for the understanding and support shown by everyone in the crowd."

The hugely popular Irish band most known for their songs Killeagh and Leave, were playing a sold out run in Melbourne when the lead singers voice started to get hoarse and "shredded" which he joked about during the gig.

Although fans said his voice was starting to sound "rough" towards the end, they were quick to step in and help as they belted out the chorus' for many songs while Eddie himself was having difficulty.
