Footage of the shocking moment has been shared on social media and since then, Sykes has shared a lengthy statement with fans.
"Alright everyone – just wanted to let you know I'm all good. The phone to the head definitely smarted, and I ended up with a mild concussion, but the swelling's gone down a decent amount already," the rocker wrote in his post.
"Last night I was struggling a bit on stage afterwards because singing was putting a lot of pressure on the wound and making things feel a bit disorienting while performing, so I'm sorry on my part for what may of seemed like a half-hearted performance.
