He tweeted on Saturday afternoon, "Spent the last 24 hours in hospital. I've been 'electrocuted' by mic, working, etc. before, but never to the extent of yesterday. Nothing to show from it other than burns on my fingers. Lucky to be alive, but today feel like I was ran over by a truck. Close call for the heart."

This was not the first time that the singer has been hospitalized this summer. The band was forced to cancel their Full Circle Tour in early June after Carlile was hospitalized with heart related issues associated with a genetic disorder called Marfan syndrome. He had surgery a short time later.
