Brian Setzer has cancelled the shows in Palm Springs and Sacramento, CA that were scheduled for Thursday and Friday night due to a serious foot infection. The shows, with the Brian Setzer Orchestra, were the only current appearances on his schedule.

Setzer posted the following on his website:

I regret to inform you I will not be able to play with the BSO at the Palm Springs and Sacramento shows. On Christmas Day my foot started to hurt and swell up. By the next morning, I couldn't walk on it so I went to the Doctor. He told me I have a very serious infection. Thinking it would get better, I held out until the last minute before canceling the shows, Doctor's orders.

I am confined to the couch and it has since gotten worse. I am so sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. I have played many shows with the flu and other such ailments, but I can't take this one lightly. Again, the last thing I want to do is cancel a show. I look forward to seeing you next year on tour and hopefully I'll start this one off on the right foot! (Sorry, I had to do it!)
