A combination of exhaustion and dehydration or something correctable. CAN’T lose Carlos right now!

Similar thing happened to Robin Trower a while back.

And get this, his band opened for Clapton. It was 47 years ago, yesterday.
Santana played around 50 minutes. Clapton's band for around 2 hours.
Then, both bands came out and played together for a bit over an hour.
The first 2 songs they did together were Latin rhythm versions of "Eyesight To The Blind" & "Crossroads".
Awesome night!

...a video at the link shows him being rolled off stage on a gurney, blocked by a black curtain held up by some of his crew members.

Carlos did wave at the crowd from the gurney, so he was conscious.

Rock legend Carlos Santana collapsed during a show Tuesday night in Michigan, the result of heat exhaustion and dehydration, his manager said.

Santana, 74, who has been touring with Earth, Wind & Fire, was in the middle of a set at Pine Knob Music Theatre in Clarkson, about 42 miles north of Detroit, when he fell, according to witnesses and video from the scene.

Medical workers attended to Santana, a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, before he was carried offstage, video shows.

Manager Michael Vrionis in a statement that Santana was taken to an emergency room for observation and that he was "doing well."
