RINGO STARR’S SON ZAK DRUMS WITH THE WHO

Little did we know that Ringo Starr’s son Zak Starkey, 47, is an in-demand drummer – and has been an unofficial member of The Who since 1996. Apparently Ringo hoped his kid would become and doctor or lawyer, but Zak loved the drums and he’s been a working musician all his adult life. He signed autographs for fans with other Who bandmembers outside the Sunset Marquis Hotel.

   Now Pippa, THAT is rubbish.

   And Janet, if you followed the Who (or at least the current iteration), you would know that Zak Starkey has been their drummer.

   Interesting to note John Bonham sent his son to Ringo for lessons and Ringo sent his son to Keith Moon for lessons.
