Brian Setzer of Stray Cats fame reveals autoimmune disease's toll: 'I cannot play guitar'
Briefly

Brian Setzer, the rockabilly musician known for his work with the Stray Cats, revealed he has been diagnosed with an auto-immune disease after experiencing hand cramps while on tour. He expressed frustration, noting it prevented him from simple tasks like holding a pen or tying his shoes. Fortunately, he has seen progress in his condition and emphasized he’s receiving treatment at the Mayo Clinic, maintaining an optimistic outlook on his recovery. Alongside this personal struggle, he has continued to promote his music projects and plans for a solo tour in the near future.
For a while it was so bad I couldn't hold a pen or tie my shoes. Since then, I've seen some progress and can now perform those daily tasks.
I know I will beat this; it will just take some time. I've been receiving care at the best hospital in the world down the block from me.
