Brian Setzer collapsed
Former Stray Cats lead singer Brian Setzer was unable to finish a concert Monday night in Albuquerque and then rushed to a local hospital.
An announcement posted on Setzer’s website Tuesday said: "Setzer's brief collapse and hospitalization was the result of dehydration, high altitude and vertigo, a combination that made it impossible for him "to continue his performance at the Isleta Casino after several songs."
A statement on the Grammy-winning twang king's site reads: "Brian has completely recovered and will perform tonight at the Dodge Theater in Phoenix, AZ, and will continue with the remainder of the tour uninterrupted."
The Albuquerque Journal reports that concert goers can get a full refund and have two weeks to collect it.
