Madball Kick Out Drummer

Madball have kicked out drummer Jay Weinberg, the son of infamous drummer Max Weinberg.

“I’m letting Jay go in Canada because I just feel he doesn’t represent this band well on a character level,” comments frontman Freddy Cricien. “It would go against my own code of ethics to keep him around. Not saying he’s a bad drummer. I won’t take that away from him. But the reality is – he has a lot to learn about paying dues, and about life in general. Granted, he is a kid, but I’m not sure that he’ll ever be built for this particular lifestyle. I wish him the best of luck, but the MADBALL machine rolls on!”
