Was at the annual Brian Setzer Orchestra Christmas show tonight and the band played for about half an hour and then suddenly stopped and Brian walked literally off the stage to the floor. An announcer came out and said the band was going to take a 10 minute break. Lights came out and we waited around for about 40 minutes. The announcer then came out and said Brian was taken to the hospital due to unknown conditions. I stopped at the local gas station and rumor was that Brian had a heart attack and was taken to UNMH Heart Hospital here in town. Don't know how reliable that intel was but I sure hope whatever happened he will be ok. :nope

Yikes! I hope he is ok. I hope the heart attack part is a rumor and that it is not too serious.

I just called Dodge Theater in Phoenix where the band is set to play tonight and they told me that the show was still on. Very weird and I'm very disapointed.

Well apparently he's fully recovered and tonight's show in Phoenix is on. Glad he's better but very bummed about last night's gig here that didn't finish. :mybad

I was expecting that comeback an hour ago. Hey, it's easy for me to say, I wasn't there.

Now that's funny. Well maybe not if you happen to be Tone.

Well Tone can look back on this and say "I was at the concert where Brian walked off the stage and the rest of the concert was canceled". I guess that's not as good as being able to say "I was at the concert the night after Brian had walked off the stage after performing for a half hour"

You guys are a crack up thanks I needed a laugh. I was pretty bummed all day today. That's never happened to me I guess that's why I took it so hard. Hopefully he won't be hungover I mean sick tonight either in Phoenix!

Well Tone, I've been plagued by dehydration and vertigo on more than one occasion for reasons that I won't get into here :nope , but I will way say most times have been a result of my own doing. With that I'll say a rescheduled show for the good folks of Albercrazy would be a good show of faith.
