Zak Starkey, drummer with The Who since 1996, has been fired by the band for a second time. The news arrives just a month after Starkey was fired and then quickly reinstated, reportedly after a dispute with frontman Roger Daltrey became public during a Teenage Cancer Trust Performance at London’s Royal Albert Hall.
Guitarist Pete Townshend broke the news of Starkey's second firing, taking to social media to say, "After many years of great work on drums from Zak the time has come for a change. A poignant time. Zak has lots of new projects in hand and I wish him the best."
