setzerRockabilly guitar legend Brian Setzer is alive and thriving today, despite the fearful tone of numerous reports focusing on his collapse last night during a gig in Albuquerque, New Mexico. That's from the man himself -- or at least Setzer's website -- which notes that 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." Like Denver, Colorado, Albuquerque is a mile-high city, located about one mile above sea level.

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."
