Title: Ringo's Son
Post by: on March 17, 2004, 11:32:06 PM
Zak Starkey, Ringo's son, plays drums on the two new tracks on the Who's "Then and Now: 1964-2004." It comes out March 30 and he is also going out on tour with them. It is the first new songs from the Who since 1982.

Zak had been touring with the Who for years, and seeing as they performed all their old hits, he had to faithfully reproduce Keith Moon's sound - so in effect he WAS like Keith!

Keith Moon accidentally ran over his Chauffeur and killed him. Keith then hit the booze and pills really hard and basically self-destructed.

Yeah, that's right PC I remember now.

Another Who fact: The High Numbers supported the Beatles on one of their tours! What an amazing concert that must've been!

Did he get in trouble?

I bet he would have gotten in more trouble if he had ran over a screaming fan.

I seem to recall that Keith Moon was out having a meal with Paul & Linda the night he died (anyone confirm?). Perhaps he choked on Linda's veggie Lasagne!

There will NEVER be another rock drummer like the late, great Keith Moon of the Who but Zak Starkey is a great drummer in his own right!!!
