County singer Jason Aldean had to cut a recent concert short because he said he suffered heat exhaustion while on stage.
Aldean shared Sunday on Twitter that he had been golfing all day before the show and had “a combination of dehydration and just heat exhaustion.” He cleared up what happened, saying that he didn’t think it was as serious as heat stroke, but added that it was “pretty intense.” He had to have two IVs administered, one when he got off stage and a second on Sunday.
Saturday’s show will be rescheduled, but a date has not been announced.
This weekend marked the first dates of his Highway Desperado Tour, Billboard reported.
