Here is punk’s superstar drummer on a trip to France with his children.

Beau Bokan (Blessthefall) with Rocket

This adorable LA Kings fan has a music power couple as parents — Blessthefall’s frontman and singer/songwriter Lights. Here you can even see one of Beau’s tattoo dedicated to his daughter, complete with a rocket ship and her birthdate.

Jeff Stinco (Simple Plan) with Maya and Zoe

Collectively, the Simple Plan guys have a total of seven kids (Seb is a papa too)! It seems like not too long ago, they were singing “I’m Just A Kid” themselves, but Simple Plan is the definition of a pop-punk dad band.

Craig Mabbitt (Escape The Fate) with Leila Rose and Caige Michael-Edward

Now that Mabbitt's kids are getting older, they all act more and more like best friends.

Shortly after a beautiful blessing and tribal ceremony, the ETF drummer is so proud that his two angels are now official members of his Native American tribe.
