Dublin/Berlin, Sept 2 (IBNS): Popular Irish band U2 was forced to cut short their Berlin show after their singer Bono suffered 'a complete loss of voice'.

"We're so sorry for tonight's cancellation. Bono was in great form and great voice prior to the show and we were all looking forward to the second night in Berlin, but after a few songs, he suffered a complete loss of voice," the band said in a statement.

The statement further said: "We don't know what has happened and we're taking medical advice."

"As always, we appreciate our audience's understanding and all our fans' support in Berlin and those who travelled from afar. We will update you very soon," it said.

The band had played only few songs when their singer apologised to the public.

Bono was quoted as saying by BBC: "I think we can't go on. It's not right for you."

Actress Ashley Judd attended the concert and said the crowd 'felt for him'.

The power of #bono voice before it surprised him in #Berlin and left him abruptly...he was singing his guts out (per usual). @u2 @U2eiTour The crowd so felt for him as he with surrender was obviously powerless and vulnerable. He’s real and he’s human, too, like we all are. pic.twitter.com/f0Tl3hhuA2
