(Classic Rock) McQueen Street frontman Derek Welsh is in a medically induced coma after injuring his head in a fall on a tennis court. Welsh fell and hit his head and is being cared for in the Intensive Care Unit at the University of Tennessee Medical Centre, according to his friend and former bandmate Richard Hatcher.

Hatcher says: "Derek and I then started the Rat Race. I loved every minute of playing music with him. We parted ways in not so good terms, but I still consider him as a true friend. I wish I could have changed things but that is the past. Now he and his family need our prayers. He is in the ICU unit in UT Knoxville, Tennessee."

Welsh was playing tennis with Devin Johnson, owner of Alabama-based B&D Custom Guitars, when the accident happened. Johnson says: "He has massive swelling to the brain and is currently in a medically induced coma. This is a very bad situation for him and friends and family. more on this story
