Health and Frustration

Lau explained that Farrell became angered with Farrell due to his decline in health before performing. Additionally, his patience began ebbing away as the stage sound seemed too loud and overshadowing his voice. Lau noted this conflict began over this disagreement over Farrell’s declining health before performing. He felt powerless against what they perceived was too loud sound levels which overpowered his vocal abilities during their audition for their show “Beat Street”.

Audience Complaints and Farrell’s Outburst

Farrell had been suffering from both tinnitus and sore throat for some time when audience members from the front row complained that the band’s volume was too loud, making it hard for them to hear what was being played. This provoked his frustration to reach its boiling point.

Lau outlined Eric Avery as being at the “center” of this drama; Avery being both co-songwriter and founding bassist was ultimately victorious during their confrontation on stage between Farrell and Avery; Avery struck Farrell several blows before Kevin, one of the crew’s members with long hair intervened and pulled Avery away by force from confronting Farrell directly on stage before heading towards the front to apologize to audience.

Lau noted that after the altercation, Avery took several “cheap shots” at Farrell. Farrell responded by acting out for approximately thirty minutes – eventually collapsing into tears from sheer anxiety and becoming completely incoherent.
