Jason Aldean's Connecticut concert came to an abrupt ending after the singer suffered a heat stroke while on stage. Video footage shows the country star experiencing some distress while performing. After a while, he runs off stage and doesn't return.
Jason was performing at the Xfinity Theatre in Hartford. He visibly struggled to get through performing "Crazy Town."
The concert venue made a tweet the day after the incident. "Yesterday's Jason Aldean show will be rescheduled for a future date," the post started off.

"We appreciate your patience as we work on rescheduling a new date, as well as the outpouring of well wishes for Jason," the tweet continued. "A rep has confirmed he is now doing well after experiencing heat stroke during last night’s performance. Please stay tuned to all social media channels for updates as they become available."
Many fans in the comments shared their support.
"Glad he’s doing better…." one user wrote. "Was a really hot night …."
Another commented: "What he did performed last night was amazing!!! Just glad he is ok Speedy recovery ❤️."
Meanwhile, other users didn't show the same empathy for the 46-year-old singer.
"If it was truly heat stroke, he wouldn't have been able to run off," one user commented. "Dude needed to throw up. Probably too much alcohol or beer. I sure hope he's going to be alright but that wasn't heat stroke."
Another exclaimed: "I’ve seen heat stroke….that ain’t it !"
The weather in Hartford that night was said to have reached a high of 89 degrees with a feel of mid-90s due to high humidity. Some people believe that it was mere heat exhaustion as opposed to full-blown heat stroke.
The country singer posted an update to his Twitter addressing the incident. ""Had a lot of people checking on me today after hearing about what happened last night at the show in Connecticut. Just wanted to let you know thanks to everybody that’s called in checking, I’m doing fine."
"Just one of those things," he continued. "I was hot, I was playing golf all day yesterday and got to the show, and it was a combination of dehydration and just heat exhaustion. I hear a lot of stuff going around, heat stroke and all this stuff," he also clarified. "I don’t think it was quite that serious, but it was pretty intense last night at the show. Anybody that was at the show knows how hot it was."
