Over the past few weeks, Flores showed his talent off in various cities.

In the final days leading up to his death, Flores expressed his satisfaction with staying sober while taking the stage for his tour performances.

He said on X over the weekend, "So I started my tour a couple weeks ago and I'm proud to say I've done every single show - five in Portland, one in Albuquerque, and four in Atlanta - without a single drop of alcohol."

"I'm nervous for Phoenix next weekend, but I think I got it. I'm not sober just wanna chill a bit."
