Who is Jay Weinberg?
Jay Weinberg is an American musician who is best known as the former drummer of the heavy metal band Slipknot. He is the son of longtime Bruce Springsteen drummer Max Weinberg.
Weinberg is the son of drummer Max Weinberg, who joined the E Street Band in 1975; his mother, Rebecca “Becky” (Schick), was a former teacher. He grew up in Middletown Township, New Jersey.

At age 9, he first saw the E Street Band on their 1999–2000 Reunion Tour and saw shows on this and subsequent tours, especially in Europe. Around the same time, his father took him to Ozzfest to see Slipknot, which gave him a strong affinity for heavy metal and other intense music genres. His father also exposed him to a wide variety of other music. He began playing guitar at age 9 and bass at age 12 or 13.
Early life career
He then started playing drums at age 14, getting only a few lessons from his father without much instruction and being mostly self-taught, using his father’s old gear. By the next year, he had performed a guest appearance on stage with band The Used and subsequently with punk rockers the Bouncing Souls. He played in the New Jersey metal band Chaosis. He attended Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School where he played on the hockey team for a time, played in a band called Sadie Mae, and graduated in 2008.
Weinberg graduated from the Stevens Institute of Technology in New Jersey in 2014. He joined the New York punk band The Reveling in August 2008, which plays before small audiences in venues such as the Ace of Clubs nightspot in Manhattan, various spots in Brooklyn, and elsewhere. With them, he does some of the band’s songwriting and arranging.

But in December 2012, Weinberg made a Twitter announcement without alerting the other members beforehand that he was leaving Against Me! Using Twitter, he wished the band well, but the other members, in return, tweeted a picture of a drum machine.
