Unfortunately, it is clear that a full recovery from his vocal injury is not possible.”

It was in September 2023 that Tyler first revealed that his vocal cords were suffering, recalls Billboard. “I am heartbroken to say that I have been given strict doctor’s orders not to sing for the next thirty days,” the singer explained at the time. “I suffered a vocal cord injury during the concert on Saturday, which caused a hemorrhage”he added.

Some of you have been with us since the beginning and it is because of all of you that we have made rock ‘n’ roll history.”

The band members have repeatedly expressed their immense gratitude to their fans, “best” of planet Earth. “We’ve been honored to have our music be a part of yours. In every club, on every major tour, and in grand and private moments, you’ve given us a place in the soundtrack of your lives.s. We are grateful beyond words to everyone who was motivated to hit the road with us one last time.”
