American hard rock band BULLETBOYS’ drummer RYCHE GREEN has been hospitalised with a severe case of pneumonia following the band’s recently completed U.S. tour.

Green was rushed to the emergency room after the group’s Summer Rockfest tour ended last month (Aug09).

According to Blabbermouth.net, the rocker had been in failing health while on the road. Green has reportedly been confined to an Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

The band has rescheduled a 5 September (09) concert in Arizona to allow the drummer time to recuperate.
