The guitarist explained he had an angiogram – an X-ray used to examine blood vessels – where medical staff discovered that three of his arteries were blocked and he may have to undergo open heart surgery.

However, Brian admitted he went for the alternative which was to have three stents put inside his heart and is currently recovering at home.
