Legendary guitarist Carlos Santana collapsed on stage on Tuesday night during a concert in Michigan.

According to Marca, Santana was performing at the Pine Knob Music Theatre in Clarkston, Michigan, when he passed out.

Medical personnel rushed to the stage to help the 74-year-old Mexican musician, and his team asked the audience to pray for the artist's health because of a "serious medical" issue.

Milenio reported that Santana fainted while performing his hit song "Joy." Images and videos of the fainting incident have already surfaced on social media. 

A video from an audience of Santana's "Miraculous Supernatural 2022 Tour: Santa + Earth, Wind, & Fire," revealed how the production acted after the famed guitarist fainted. It also showed staff swarming around Santana, with one rushing to the guitarist to give him water. 

Billboard reporter Garry Graff tweeted that Santana was taken to a hospital after medical personnel carried him off the stage 20 minutes after he fainted.

Another video showed that Carlos Santana quickly regained consciousness after a couple of minutes. It also showed Santana waving his hands to the audience while escorted off stage.

The Reason Why Carlos Santana Collapsed in Michigan Concert

In a statement, Carlos Santana's management confirmed that the legendary guitarist had collapsed due to heat exhaustion and dehydration.

The statement further noted that the iconic rocker was transported from the venue to the emergency department at McLaren Clarkston, where he was "doing well." Later, Santana dedicated a message to his Facebook fans, thanking them for the prayers they offered for him.

"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," Santana wrote.

The incident caused a postponement of Carlos Santana's current North American tour. His next stop was supposed to be at The Pavilion at Star Lake in Burgettstown, Pennsylvania on July 6. A new date for the said show is yet to be confirmed.

Carlos Santana Concert

In an interview with the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Mexican guitarist said that playing in a concert nowadays is "a blessing and an opportunity to go even deeper into our heart and higher in our mind."

The guitarist noted that people were reminded that performers were not "a wretched sinner" whenever they played music for them.

Santana added that performers become a beam of light that brings "hope and courage" when they play music. Santana's concert happened two years later than it was initially planned because of the pandemic.

In the interview, Santana also suggested that his concert with fellow Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Earth, Wind & Fire "should be an exuberant, healing affair at a time people desperately need it."

Santana noted that suffering ends when people make a "conscious choice" to focus on the highest good of all people. He then said people should always concentrate on gratitude, deep appreciation, and thankfulness.

"Those three things are your armor to protect yourself from yourself. Nobody can mess with you more than your own ego... own negative voice," he added.

Carlos Santana also canceled several Las Vegas shows last December following his successful heart procedure.
