Rock Siblings.....

And Derek's a pretty awesome guitar player.

Zak Starkey surpassing Ringo? Was that a joke?

Has anybody who is criticizing my statement seen Zak play with the Who??? If not then maybe you should before making these comments. Zak plays the drums like Ringo could only dream of. He is the reincarnation of the greatest drummer in the history of rock, Keith Moon. Long Live Rock!

Yes, I have seen Zak with the Who and yes he was very good. But to say he has "surpassed his dad in every way" is putting things out of context.

He has not, and can not, surpass his dad in many ways the least of which is that his dad, RINGO, played drums for the biggest rock band ever. The band that is still the benchmark 45 years later. Do you know how many drummers only picked up a stick because of Ringo? It is probable that if there were no Beatles, no one in the US would have ever heard The Who or any of the other great British bands.

So please, put things in context. Yes, Zak is an excellent player technically and he can emulate K. Moon. And that is admirable. But no, he has not surpassed his dad!
