CLARKSTON, Mich. – Legendary guitarist Carlos Santana is “doing well” after he collapsed on stage Tuesday night during a performance at Pine Knob Music Theatre in Clarkston.
Santana was taken off stage after 10 p.m. Tuesday (July 5) in the middle of a concert at the outdoor theater. He waved to the crowd, but fans were still anxious for an update on his health.
On Santana’s official Facebook page, his manager said the 74-year-old was overtaken by heat exhaustion and dehydration during the show.
Santana was taken to the emergency department at McLaren Clarkston and is “doing well,” his manager said.
His show with Earth, Wind & Fire, which was scheduled for Wednesday at The Pavilion at Star Lake in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania, has been postponed.
“To one and all, thank you for your precious prayers,” Santana wrote on the page. “Cindy and I, we are good, just taking it easy. Forgot to eat and drink water, so I dehydrated and passed out. Blessings and miracles to you all.”
