Music legend Carlos Santana collapsed on stage during a concert in Michigan Tuesday evening.
The guitarist was treated by medics after he passed out and was eventually taken off stage while waving to cheering fans, according to FOX 2 Detroit and fan video from the concert.
Santana, 74, was performing at the Pine Knob Music Theatre, an outdoor amphitheater in Independence Township, Michigan.
Santana passed out about 40 minutes into his set while performing “Joy,” according to FOX 2. He apparently sat down on a riser and appeared to lose consciousness.

“Suddenly the music just died down,” reporter Lori Pinson of FOX 2, who was at the concert, reported. “I didn’t see him collapse on stage, but everyone had him off to the side. Suddenly a chair appeared where there was not one before. The medics began to rush up on stage.”
Officials said the musician was receiving “serious medical attention,” WDIV-TV reported.
“Ladies and gentlemen as you can see have a severe medical emergency,” a staffer reportedly told the audience, according to Ultimateclassicrock.com. “Let’s share our prayers… We need it right now… Please send your light and love to this man.”
