The great Carlos Santana is taking his recuperation seriously.
Since passing out from heat exhaustion and dehydration at Pine Knob in Michigan, Santana is taking a well deserved break from touring. He’s cancelled six more shows while he gets back to his perfect self.
The cancellations also affect Earth Wind & Fire, who are on tour with Santana on some dates. The EWF shows without Santana will continue.
Santana’s manager, Michael Vronis, says in a statement:
“I regret to inform you that the Santana band has postponed tonight’s show at Ruoff Music CenterNoblesville, Indiana. And, we are postponing the July 9 show at Riverbend Music Center in Cincinnati, Ohio; July 10 at American Family Insurance Amphitheater – Summerfest Grounds in Milwaukee, Wisconsin; July 12 at Walmart Arkansas Music Pavilion in Rogers, Arkansas; July 15 at Dos Equis Pavilion in Dallas, Texas; July 16 at Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in Woodlands, Texas. Doctors have recommended that Mr. Santana gets rest to recuperate fully.”
All shows as planned beginning July 23rd of this month in Paso Robles, CA through the end of 2022 are still confirmed and will be performed as scheduled. The tour schedule can be found at: https://tour.santana.com/
“Carlos is doing well and is anxious to be back on stage soon. He just needs rest,” Vrionis went on to say. “Santana profoundly regrets that these postponements of his upcoming performances; but, his health is our number one concern. He is looking forward to seeing all of his fans very soon.”
