Dan The Dad wrote:
"Hey everyone,
"Today I received Covid-19 test results which indicated that I tested positive.
"During this same time frame, some of those close to me have tested negative and I am currently experiencing no symptoms. I plan on taking a rapid test first thing tomorrow to be sure that the results were accurate and quarantine for two weeks regardless of the second result.
"In being proactive, I contacted the other promoters and many of the people I came in contact with over the last weekend to make them aware of the situation.
"I want to assure you every show at The Collective was carried out with the utmost concern for safety and those protocols remained in place throughout the weekend.
"I appreciate everyone's concern and ask for privacy as I continue to deal with this situation. Regardless of whether I am truly positive or not, everyone who attended should get tested for their own personal safety and for those around them.
"Thank you."
