I always thought when I hit 50 years old that'd be it for the travel. I don't have to tell you - you wait at an airport, your flight's delayed, get on a 14-hour flight, get off, get stuck in traffic, you get to the hotel and the room service is closed. Brian Setzer airportclosedelay share on social
Since the big band started I'm just always swamped with movies and things. It certainly pays the bills and it's very satisfying, because I get to write all these big charts and all this crazy music. Brian Setzer bandbigbill Change image and share on social
I'm not God's gift to rockabilly. There's great players out there, and some of them deserve a lot more than they've gotten. Brian Setzer deservegiftgod Change image and share on social
