Bruce Springsteen's drummer Max Weinberg is unable to perform at Glastonbury this weekend due to prior commitments with the house band at the Conan O'Brian Show. His son Jay is stepping into the breach as his replacement for the gig.
In honour of this monumental case of rock star child bailing out rock star parent, we've compiled a gallery of musically talented rock'n'roll offspring.

The list should ruthlessly exclude progeny wth no talent who only get noticed because of their lineage. Starting with Iglesias.
How many of these folks would be getting ahead in music, without their family and industry connections and advantages, is another question. Not so well I would say... and I wonder how many really creative original talents are lost to the formulae and templates that make up most popular music today.
Still, leaning on your parents to get ahead - not that their is anything wrong with that :-) - is a time honoured establishment tradition.
