    Hey all,

    The recent thread on here about Steve Howe's son joining Yes for the current tour got me thinking...how many bands out there have had members replaced, or joined, by their own kids?

    Ones I can think of, in addition to Steve Howe's son:

    Leon Taylor replacing his dad Mel Taylor in the Ventures when Mel passed away
    Adam Wakeman in Yes, although his Tenure was very brief (one or two gigs, I think)
    Jason Bonham for Zep
    Zach Starkey touring with Ringo's all Starrs
    Rick Nielsen's son replacing Bun E Carlos in Cheap Trick

    any others?

    Matt Pegg has stood in for his father Dave Pegg on bass with both Jethro Tull and Fairport Convention.

    The dreadful 80's revival of The Mamas and The Papas included Mackenzie Phillips replacing her mother Michelle (and not just replacing Michelle in a musical capacity, as Mackenzie subsequently and sordidly revealed later on).

    I visited this year a concert of Lloyd Cole and saw he was now playing together with his son William, but is a two person band a real band like The Commotions once were?

    Then there is the Allman tribe - Duane Betts joining father Dickie's Great Southern, Derek Trucks joining with uncle Butch in ABB. I'm sure Devon Allman sat in many a time with ABB. Same with Berry Oakley Jr and Duane Trucks I would guess.
