I was what they call asymptomatic, I didn't have any symptoms, the classic symptoms. I didn't have flu-like symptoms, I didn't have shortness of breath, I didn't have difficulty breathing, I didn't have a cough, I didn't have a low-grade fever. I still don’t have a fever. I didn’t have a loss of smell or taste."

He added, "Apparently, I just lost consciousness. So, in addition to all the other stuff you have to look out for, if your a— pass out in the middle of a show on stage, you probably need to get tested."
