Voice Loss Incident
Though the concert was generally well received, one can tell that Joey's voice sounded a bit strained during the concert (she said so herself during the start of the third show). In fact, Joey started losing her voice in October while recording her album "Solemn on Stage", and the situation got worse up until early 2002 when Joey took a hiatus for several months, training abroad in Los Angeles and getting acupuncture treatment in Nanjing. This became known as Joey's "voice loss incident", and till this today, Joey still says that this was the lowest point in her career.

Famous quotes containing the words voice, loss and/or incident:
“It is singular to look round upon a country where the dreams of sages, smiled at as utopian, seem distinctly realized, a people voluntarily submitting to laws of their own imposing, with arms in their hands respecting the voice of a government which their breath created and which their breath could in a moment destroy!”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)
“War is bestowed like electroshock on the depressive nation; thousands of volts jolting the system, an artificial galvanizing, one effect of which is loss of memory. War comes at the end of the twentieth century as absolute failure of imagination, scientific and political. That a war can be represented as helping a people to “feel good” about themselves, their country, is a measure of that failure.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“I teazed him with fanciful apprehensions of unhappiness. A moth having fluttered round the candle, and burnt itself, he laid hold of this little incident to admonish me; saying, with a sly look, and in a solemn but quiet tone, “That creature was its own tormentor, and I believe its name was BOSWELL.””
—James Boswell (1740–1795)
