"The Ox and Chris, they were just breathtaking players," singer tells UCR.

Singer David Coverdale is reportedly seeking treatment for a "persistent upper respiratory infection."

Band members have faced various health woes while on their farewell tour.

The Darkness frontman says experience made him “vomit in my mouth – in a really good way.”
