While performing a sold-out concert at the Isleta Resort and Casino last night, Brian Setzer of the Brian Setzer Orchestra quickly left the stage and was rushed to an Albuquerque-area hospital.

Now word yet of what caused Brian's abrupt exit or his current condition.

Hope he is okay.

      I wish a speedy recovery, to the current Grammy nominee, from whatever made him have to stop the show. He and his orchestra put on a great show.

      He's ok, he was just dehydrated and suffered vertigo from the high altitude.

      Brian Setzer is an amazingly talented musician. He's not just a great guitarist and performer, but his arrangements are nothing short of brilliant. Hope he's well and back on his feet soon.

      SHIT! He's going to be in this area right after Christmas. We were going to see him, but the tickets were too expensive. Hope he's OK. Unlike many of today's "musicians," he has talent.

      Just saw his show in Knoxville last week–just absolutely brilliant. Amazingly talented man with a bangin' band. Prayers are with him, wishing him a healthy holiday.

      I'm sure he is already back to normal. Some people don't realize that here in New Mexico, we are at a high altitude and we are also very dry, so it is very important to keep hydrated and to not overwork yourself.
