Brian Setzer is currently on tour with the Brian Setzer orchestra playing Christmas music. He was briefly hospitalized in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He was unable to finish his set ’cause he got sick. He will continue the rest of the tour as planned.

More from his website:
I didn’t even know Brian was back with his orchestra band. I love Brian Setzer, admired his guitar playing and songwriting for many years.
He was only huge and mainstream for one album which was the Brian Setzer Orchestra’s “The Dirty Boogie”. Everything else he did after that, no one cared for. I still follow Brian’s career even if he isn’t that popular and well known anymore.
While away from his orchestra in the past, he put out a few very good solo albums that I loved. I love his rockabilly guitar and admire how he tries to keep old school 50’s rock alive.
I wish the mainstream would pay more attention to real musicians like Brian instead of wasting money on shit like Lady Gaga and Beyonce.
