    Legendary Musician Carlos Santana Passes Out During Show- UPDATE

    Mary Anne ButlerBy Updated:1 Min Read

    We want to start by saying we VERY MUCH HOPE Carlos Santana makes a full recovery from whatever prompted this to happen. Earlier this evening during a concert at the Pine Knob Music Theater in Clarkston, MI, guitar legend Carlos Santana reportedly passed out on stage.

    Additional footage from the show indicates he regained consciousness before being taken from the facility by medical staff.

    At present, Santana’s team has not issued any kind of official statement or reason.

    According to other eye witness reports, the venue staff did make an announcement, which said: “Ladies and gentlemen as you can see have a severe medical emergency. Let’s share our prayers… We need it right now… Please send your light and love to this man.”

    The 74 year-old Santana was on tour with Earth, Wind & Fire. No word on if the rest of the tour will be cancelled.

    UPDATE

    Santana has since posted to his Facebook page, saying “to one and all thank you for your precious prayers 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.”

Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
