Spice Girl’s Mel B has addressed the sound and vocal problems the group faced at their debut concert in Dublin while promising to improve the rest of the tour.

Early this morning, Scary Spice took to Instagram to apologise to fans after they complained about ‘sound issues’ at the first stop of the groups UK reunion tour.

Sharing the honest video at 6am this morning, the 43-year-old said: ‘Hey guys, thanks you for attending our show tonight in Dublin we will see you in Cardiff and hopefully the vocals and the sound will be much better.’

Filming from her bed, the singer then gave an exasperated sigh to show how much she meant what she said.

Her video comes a day after she joined Mel C, Emma Bunton and Geri Horner at Croke Park in the Irish capital, which also saw support from Jess Glynne.

The show kicked off in suitable style with the band members coming out in twists on their classic outfits, including Geri’s new spin on her iconic Union Jack dress, while belting out Spice Up Your Life.

And the night featured 24 costume changes, and was split over six separate acts as they rattled through hits like Viva Forever, 2 Become 1, and Wannabe.

An emotional video halfway through the show paid tribute to the absence of Victoria Beckham, who recently wished her bandmates luck before the tour kicked off.

They also adjusted their message of girl power to accommodate a wider audience, with screens reading: ‘We welcome all ages, all races, all gender identities, all countries of origin, all sexual orientations, all religions & beliefs, all abilities.’

Some fans, however, took to Twitter to mention there were sound issues which prevented them from hearing the girls speak on stage.
