Papa's Like a Rolling Stone

No self-respecting rock and roller has a proper parent in sight. Yet, they have dads and sometimes even are.

"Daddy's little princess," Amy Winehouse, admits to getting a "rollicking" from D(ear)O(old)D(ad) for skipping out on gigs. Legendary (for music and excesses) Dixie rocker Gregg Allman has a 31-year-old son Devon (who met his dad age 15) now getting some press — although he hasn't earned a slot on either Thing One or Two's iPod — in praise of his display of chops. And rocker dad living an Ozzie and Harriet TV-life (sort of), Killers frontman Brandon Flowers and wife of two years welcome baby [noone knows the name but "Brandon Jr." has bored folks listening to the grapevine] to their Vegas home.

** Who knew Traffic's "Dear Mr. Fantasy" was an ode to dads? **
