    This had to be the reason for the shorter shows. Hopefully he heals and is back to normal.

    Rest is the best medicine...and no smoking.

    How can it be overuse? He just had a year and a half off from serious voice strain.

     I'm thinking they meant overused because his voice couldn't handle a couple shows? His voice has been getting more and more rough over time, and there is some fear that it will just cop out because of irreversibly damaged vocal chords. I hope that isn't the case obviously. I hope the people saying he looked sick are right. But I admit I have worried about his voice before today.

    More rough in 2008 than later years imo though. I don't think one can (atleast not me) draw any conclusions about his voice. 

    Don't even wanna think about his voice getting "shot".

    To be honest, I’m glad tonight got cancelled. I had a monumental hangover after last night’s most awesome show and was kinda dreading standing in a massive line to get in to that cavern again. At least this way I get to come back in a few weeks and watch it clean. See you in Barcelona!

    Yes, that was my worry. Years and years of damage. I wonder if he’s ever seen a vocal coach for proper technique (doubtful) to avoid permanent damage.

    I noticed at AMS 1 already that he had to blow his nose alot and had lots of phlegm in his throat that he had to clear often, thought at that stage he might have flu and still pushed through.  He however did so well during the 2 AMS shows that I didn't worry about it.

    He seemed ill in AMS1 I think, so hopefully it'll pass quickly. They put on an incredible show in London 1 despite him struggling, Jeff and Matt were backing him up a fair bit.

    I hope he recovers quickly.  I didn’t pick up anything in Amsterdam but it was really noticeable at PinkPop. He could finish alive. The fact that he saw 2 vocal drs tells me he is not sick.  Good luck Eddie hope it gets better.  The pressure to perform must be insane.

    I just want to say that to be upset and disappointed is a completely normal, human reaction among the fans who travelled to London. I also think that this might be very hard for Eddie himself as he always tries to do his best and give 100 %. If there will be a new show in London, I’m sure this will be a great one. I travelled here from Sweden and I’m not sure I’ll be able to make it next time. I hope Eddie will revover quickly. Most of us get sick sometimes and it sucks even more for singers. This is a sad situation for both band and London travellers, but I am sure it will be alright in the end. It got me thinking about when Eddie had food poisoning and sang until he passed out and had to go to the hospital. This is how dedicated he is. Much love to everyone affected by this unfortunate situation.
