Bad news for Carlos Santana and Earth Wind & Fire fans. The famed guitarist and the legendary band have canceled three more tour dates after the former's health scare over the past few months.

According to the Journal Sentinel, the musician announced the shocking news online, saying they will no longer perform in Cincinnati, Milwaukee, and Arkansas.

"Unfortunately, we were not able to reschedule the shows in Cincinnati, Milwaukee, and Rogers and regret to inform of their cancellation. Ticketholders for those shows will receive an email directly from their point of purchase," the statement reads on Santana's official website.

This was not the first time Santana canceled a show in Milwaukee as he was supposed to perform at the Milwaukee World Festival's amphitheater for the 2020 Democratic National Convention.

However, the show got canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

He was set to return to the state on July 10 for a scheduled show, but he passed out during a July 5 performance, leading him and the band to cancel several dates.

As of this writing, there are no updates if he's going to re-schedule the canceled dates, but the outlet noted that his canceled Dallas and Houston appearances have been moved to 2023.

In early reports, the legendary artist suffered heat exhaustion and dehydration while performing at the Pine Knob Music Theatre in Clarkston outside Detroit, Michigan.

He was taken to the hospital to recover.

Michael Vrionis, his manager, issued a statement at the time, saying Santana was doing well but was anxious to perform again.

"He just needs rest, doctors have recommended that Mr. Santana gets rest to recuperate fully," he said. (via ABC News)

Following this, he canceled his performances in several cities like Rogers, Woodlands, Cincinnati, Noblesville, and many more.

The guitarist returned to the stage on July 23 in Paso Robles, California.

In other updates, Earth Wind & Fire announced a few months ago that they will be performing 62 scheduled shows throughout, 29 of which includes Santana and his band.

According to their official website, their next show will be at the Tanglewood Music Center in Lenox, Massachusetts, on August 9.

Following this, they will visit several cities in the US for a solo tour including Kansas City, Corpus Christi, Sugar Land, North Little, New Orleans, Tallahassee, Fort Myers, St. Augustine, North Charleston, and many more.
