He’s human bro. Can happen to any if us.

How many of us have collapsed at work because we didn't drink enough water?

If it did happen would your boss say "don't worry, you're only human." Or would they rightly point out that neglecting your health short changed the clients and threatened the livelihood of the entire crew?

Santana has been performing for well over 50 years. He knows you need to be hydrated to do a good show. So why didn't he do it?

Nobody goes to a concert to see their heroes die in front of them. Now that's going to be on everyone's mind when they're deciding whether or not to buy a ticket to a Santana show.

He ruined the experience of his fans and did untold damage to his brand. All because he didn't drink enough water. No excuse for that.

This fuckery doesnt seem typical of you...maybe you are trolling but that aint your style...you must be having a bad fucking day...you must have worked some real shit jobs where a boss would say that shit out in the open about somebody who just collapsed
 
Glad to hear he’s ok.

Our work sent out a memo / reminder last week re: heat exhaustion and what to watch out for re: our older clientele and ourselves. Weather’s been up and down lately, but last year we had that unprecedented heat dome that killed hundreds in our city. Including a guy I used to work with, and a family friend / former neighbor of ours. He was older (and his wife passed last week), whereas the other guy was in his 60s. Felt bad for paramedics and medical staff. They were dealing with that & all the pandemic concerns too. Countless thousands of 911 calls over & above the norm.
 
Come on man....take a break. Maybe catch some Zzzzz. You're sounding a bit off.

Probably dehydration, seems to be common with artists which I'm sure his more of an issue the older you get.



Agreed. Always have to be careful with hydration. Dehydration and heat exhaustion are no joke. I remember having to “coach” someone at work to actually drink water. It was always milk, OJ, or instant coffee. Never water. They were older and battled cancer in their final 2 yrs. Often wondered how dehydrated they were since coffee’s a diuretic and all to boot.
