“Just wanted to let you know, thank you to everyone who is calling and checking in,” Aldean said in a video posted on Twitter Sunday afternoon. “I’m fine. Just one thing. It was hot. I played golf all day yesterday and then came to the show. I think it was a combination of dehydration and heat exhaustion.”
Although he wasn’t sure the episode was as severe as a heat stroke, Aldean said it was still “pretty intense.”
