Overview
- Salgado suffered a stroke on Oct. 9 shortly after beginning a show in Safford, Arizona, and was taken by ambulance before being airlifted to a Tucson hospital.
- He returned home to San Antonio two days later and remains under the care of his cardiologist, neurologist and a stroke specialist for ongoing monitoring.
- Salgado and his doctors have decided he should pause performing for at least the next couple of weeks while they continue evaluations and he rests.
- Some upcoming concerts have been canceled and others postponed, and Muertos Fest organizers have not yet announced whether his planned Oct. 25 appearance will proceed.
- Salgado has thanked fans and fellow musicians for support and has a long history as a San Antonio Tejano headliner, so changes to his schedule carry public and logistical implications for local events.
