he's speaking so much as a fan perspective even already being a Slipknot band member. Dude's living the dream all of of us long for.
Slipknot made the absolute right move in hiring a fan!
long live Jay in Slipknot!!
Damn right! It makes me so happy to see another person being happy😁🤘
Right? I would shit myself if I was auditioning and someone said slipknots about to come in.
AMEN
JoEy Is BeTtEr YoU sCuMbAg
@@vincent-ow8ss ?
People should stop bitching about the replacement. Because he earned it god damnit.
He earned it, but Joey didn't deserve to be booted
Joe Kekker I agree but we have to accept jay. They’re both amazing bro. What if he was the new member 😏😂
Agree
@@joekekker1581 it wasn't cause they didn't want him he wasn't able to keep up physically shit happens it's slipknkt
If you join Slipknot, you're already a fucking legend.
He's less than 30 years old, and he can keep up with the band. Isn't that enough already to call him worthy?
Oh wait, this is the internet.
I bet that if his dad wasn't who he is, Jay wouldn't have gotten the job.
But this is the world we live in.
He's worthy, but i'm curios what would've happened if he was just another guy.
He can keep up because he's under 30, no? Not just musically, I know (but they are not the tumultuous band they once were; they're a self-sustained well-oiled machine at this point). But yea, he earned and deserves his spot 👍
He may have the sword of Excalibur!
Probably not Jay super talented don’t get me wrong but the music industry is all about relationships and connections.
@@bossmanholess4454 this is not wrong, in my opinion. Been under the hell hole as well due to "wrong connections".
Joey is my favorite drummer, but Jay... he won his place. I can't wait to see them in The Woodlands.
Joey is still better than jay imo
Aaron Shirkey Joey was good at the time he was with Slipknot, but in his last time, he was declining. I love how Joey play the drums, but you have to admit that now Jay is the drummer of Slipknot.
I know that jay is the drummer and he's good, I just like joey more than jay and I liked joey for iowa and self titled. I know jay is good but joey is better I think. I also think he was declining because of the muscle condition he had...
See ya there!!!
@@aaronshirkey5208 although now it is irrelevant, Jay's the MAN
Jay Weinberg is the drummer for Slipknot. Joey was the drummer for Slipknot.
Incredible drummers, both!
I think something that gets missed in all the hubbub amongst fans is that Jay, among all the potential drummers to fill Joey’s shoes, was/is exceptionally suited for the job because he was an uber Slipknot fan as well as being an exceptional drummer.
He was called in to an audition without even knowing who he was auditioning for. When he discovered it would be Slipknot a half hour before the audition, he was able to play 20 songs starting cold.
That’s phenomenal! And Jay has since demonstrated he’s damn well up to the task!
Huuuuuge kudos to Jay Weinberg! He’s earned every bit of it, and then some! 🤙
Jay is an amazing drummer and perfect for Slipknot
Facts
Yes he’s a good replacement but i think joey is a little more entertaining
@@epilized8455 entertaining at what? Joeys stage presence hasn’t been the same since 2009 at the LATEST
Agreed
oof
Imagine if as the time goes by they keep passing the torch to another individual.....SlipKnoT will never ever go away. Scary thought
Man... he really loves Slipknot. The way that he talks about the band it's simply amazing, he's living his dream
Much like his dad Max had said... you get paid to travel... the time on stage having a blast playing you do for free.
Dude I would love to be in his shoes. I have to put in that practice time though
It’s so crazy that he’s getting better and better. And he’s only in his 20s.
true... but what about corey and shawn? they are close to their 50s and im worried they will retire some day and the band wont be the same without corey
actually corey is mid 40s so he has more time but craig is 47 james in 47 aswell and shawn is 49 man i really hope they perform till they are 70
Nasku i think they will retire in about 10-15 years. But that’s just my opinion though
@@thegreenman1287 i hope so. i want to go to their concert. But they are so far away from my country. I just want them to do a concert in my country even if its once i will go.
@@thegreenman1287 No hate, but Slipknot literally could not function at the level they're at until 70.. just isn't logically possible with the intensity that slipknot brings.
It was crazy seeing him as a kid in the corey mask
He's featured in the disasterpieces documentary in the sAme outfit as well
I THOUGHT IT WAS COREYY
HES SO SMALL ITS SO FUNNY
TheFrogWhoLaughs time code plz?
The drumming on Solway Firth alone is a very appreciated contribution I like to think
WeTheMartyr Hasselhoff Absolutely
i met jay before at the day of the gusano premiere, he’s such a nice guy i swear man is vibe was just so calm & chill what an amazing person
Twipz's Joint Same experience when we ran into him unexpectedly, very humble guy.
true even i have met him he is nice
@@Noname__shutup HOW ARE YOU MEETING HIM ?!?
@@lilianamelendez8984 ik corey's son griffin so ye i met da band like dat bruh
@@Noname__shutup how’d you meet him? I almost got the chance to meet all the slipknot members because Joel Stroetzel from Killswitch Engage came to one of my family barbecues💀
So glad Jay is so passionate about the band and his role. The pure adrenaline and intensity is really brought forth to the table through Jay's insane skill and his incredible sounding drums. Cannot wait to see what the future holds.
Dude's got Nails merch. He's legit.
Also Slipknot is an intelligent machine. They know, no matter how good your drummer is, an aging drummer will get slower. And joey was a great drummer, but he was already in the decline in the AHIG era. By getting a currently 28 year old dude as their drummer, they've just increased the longevity of the band for at least a decade or two.
Bruh Jay Has The Best Looking Mask Especially When He Drums He Looks Sick Asf
Lolis Are life Fast Forward.. that pose he does in ‘Solway Firth’ as the video goes through its intro
🤘
The "bruh asf" Generation, FUCK.
I really like micks as well
@@tydendurler9574 bruh why u mad asf
Much respect to Jay. Joey is missed, but Jay has been handling the job really well.
PC 31 Joey was good at the time he was with Slipknot, but in his last time, he was declining
@@VolBeat2412. sad but true
@@VolBeat2412. because of spine disease
“Slipknot is the greatest band *PERIOD* “ 🐐
They really are. They've made so many different types of songs over the years, they can play just about anything
Nah, Dave Matthews band is the greatest.
@@FITE4self89 Only if you say so. And only you, okay, buddy?
Negative One XIII that was a joke btw
@@donovinskates0062 I got that.
This is sick. Jays such a good drummer!
_-_- DrumsUnlimited _-_- don’t you mean this is (sic)
Give this man a Slipknot NUMBER already!!!
what do you mean? he is in the band since 5 years
Nasku all of the other members, not including Jay and V-Man, have number. Like Corey is 8 for example.
@@NickPinkertonGaming Really? They really need the numbers. Vman does his part perfect and Jay aswell. I dont really know why they dont have.
Nasku I agree, it’s crazy. I think it might have something to do with them not being original members.
@@NickPinkertonGaming well they need to get numbers any time soon. They will take everything. It may lead them to being the owners of the band when the others retire so they can rebuild it. I am going to miss Coreys vocals tho. Well i have many years more until he gets really old
I found Slipknot in the Fall of 99'. They've been my fav. band ever since. I don't know jay, but his love for the band seems genuine. He was a fan just like all of us, and now he's in the band. if that doesn't inspire you to work hard i don't know what will. Hats off to you Jay, see ya guys on the road in August(Denver, Co.)
Amazing work jay we the maggots appreciate you continue to keep it up !!
Joaquin Gonzalez Try not to speak for all of us chief
He ain’t Joey
Polarity what’s the problem with jay though? Dude is killing it.
I love Joey but i got to admit Jay is starting to grow on me. They are both very good drummers! I can not wait to see Slipknot at Graspop🤘😠🤘
@@djentyman4002 Well, Joey was one of the best drummers in the era of "Iowa", but after AHIG he's become very bad, cause of his medical problems. These days Jay is way better man.
This is literally the same dream I had when I was 10 years old and grew a passion for drums. I first listened to SlipKnoT when I was 8. The fact that Jay is living this dream makes me feel like I'm living it as well. I want a chance to speak with him about how it all came to be. Jay Weinberg is in fact the man for a dream like this.
Did you not watch the video? If you want to know how he came to be in the band then all you have to do is watch the video that you're commenting on dumbass. By the way your dream isn't so unique, most of us have the same dream
Square Hammer dude quit being a little offended bitch.
Square Hammer fuck you, you little fucking piece of shit
@@squarehammer4619 fucking idiot. That comment is Soo ignorant 😂 what a f****** tool bag
Square Hammer There's a fine line between just listening to a basic interview and having a one on one conversation. Many people have endless lists of questions for so many people they can never actually ask. Like hecka specific things. Like for me, I really want to meet Alex Bent of Trivium and just talk to him. I aspire to have the kind of chops he's got.
I'm so glad they made something like this. Jay has worked so hard, and he deserves this so much. I hate people who are just complaining it's not Joey. Jay damn right deserves this, and you know it. Joey left, and it's time for someone else to step in. Jay is the perfect guy for the job. He's humble, he had a dream that he had accomplished, he's a maggot like the rest of us. He knows his stuff, and I support Jay on everything he does and am so happy he is part of the Slipknot family now. Jay fucking rocks!
Jay is gonna be one of the greatest drummers EVER
I don’t understand why people rip on jay, he’s a down to earth guy and a hell of a drummer. Just because Joey might be more “talented” than him doesn’t mean jay doesn’t deserve to be in slipknot, cause joeys out, so someone has to step in
Some hipocrites can't move on from the past i think thats why
They are both talented, why people have to choose one over the other? I loved Joey but now Jay is the man!
That’s how it is. People ignore jay’s talent but he will soon surpass Joey as time goes on,he’s already on his level to me. And don’t come disagree with no valid arguments please,Joey had his style but he wasn’t technical like jay for exemple and he was sloppy in live.
@@S1L3NTBUTCH3R they haven't gotten over Joey yet, and ignore what Jay brought to the band. It might not be "the same" as it was, but that's just it. Bands change, and I appreciate that Jay has made efforts to play in his own style.
Joey will always be Slipknot, Jay is amazing and will continue the legacy of the band and I believe he is the ultimate drummer to have filled the shoes of Joey Jordison.
Joey will always be the first and will always be in my heart, but jay woke the band up and theyre now getting back to their roots, jay is so unique but completely suits slipknots style, to say that he is a maggot aswell instead of just being an ordinary drummer is insane, proud to have you jay! Long like the knot
Jay deserves everything. What he's got is a product of not having an ego. Not using the fact that his dad is a famous drummer. Never tried to use it as a point of ego. Or entitlement. He did it because he wanted to play drums. And in the end, it got him his dream job. Inspiring.
I know joey is so proud of him while watching this.. Long live the knot.
You can say he earned to be in. He evolved great.
you´re right! absolutely
@@Bahomar
hey dude! are you gonna follow slipknot around all summer and film the shows? your recordings are the only ones that don't sound like mush.
I feel that Jay found his place almost instantly, and he's only in his 20's and is on the level of Joey Jordison. Crazy world we live in isn't it?
Jay Weinberg. Great drummer, great guy🤘🏼
No one disagrees with that
Jay seems to be a really nice guy... reminds me of Paul.
Just like Zakk with Ozzy. Zakk comes in as basically a kid to audition for his idol and then he's on stage with him, living the dream. I love stories when you hear about good people reaching their goals while remaining decent and real. Maggots for life!!
After watching this, I feel as though Slipknot has made the best possible move bringing Jay on. He fills the role spectacularly.
Slipknot. Boys? You made a damn good choice choosing a fan to not play FOR you...but WITH you! Keep kicking ass, Jay.
At first I really missed Joey behind the kit. But now the time has passed and I must say that Jay has become one of my favorite members in the band. Keep it up Jay!
Good for him. I enjoy these stories.
He’s literally one of us, that’s very Slipknot
after listening to the new record and how fucking good the drums are on it i love joey but don't miss him jay filled his spot with ease.
Fanfuckintastic! When he says.....
"Because Slipknot....is the greatest band.....period"
I felt that! 💯🔥
This is Slipknots best decision for a drummer. Jay is a badass drummer
What a killer story!! Also an incredible drummer. He has brought the band to another level.
So glad jay is apart of this band. He is an insane drummer and such a nice dude in general.
This is the young blood The ‘Knot needed. What an epic drummer, I need to see the whole band live soooo badly
Being a fan since I was 10 years old and now 25 with the slipknot S on my arm I’ve loved this band through lineup changes and through losing some of my favorite members and I miss Joey dearly in the band but Jay is an incredible musician and he deserves that spot and I think he fucking slays the drums and he carries his own weight. Good on you man I hope to see you live your dream for many years to come in Slipknot. 🤘🏻
Jay is a killer drummer! And he is doing extremely well for my all time favorite band Slipknot.
Love you bro! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I think Jay may be the only person who could replace Joey in the band. I love both as drummers, but man Jay kills it.
2022 still playing the shit out of the drums for slipknot !!!! Keep on rocking Jay !!!
As a slipknot fan for life jay is a perfect fit
I Feel so special to have the name Weinberg now!!!! My favorite band and the drummer is a Weinberg, I myself love playing drums, what a coincidence ❤
Go suck your head
Fucking love this guy he is perfect for the job! Same style and almost looks like Joey. Must be truly amazing to play for the best band in the world🤘🏻🤘🏻
Seeing this now just hurts, I have no idea why he would be let go. Seems like his dedication towards the band never slowed down.
He already won my heart with his performance in .5 and WANYK. Nuff said
that "devil in i" Intro-loop is killer man . works perfect as background
It's really surreal because when I was 12 years old in 2000, listening to Slipknot, I could have never imagined that they'd have a member that's younger than me.
He’s making me want to put in the work to be a guitarist for Slipknot no matter how unrealistic that dream is.
I'm the same age as this guy. He's living the dream. Proud of you Jay
Its a pleasure having you drum from the mighty knot. ❌
I’ve been a fan of Jay form the first time I saw him play with the rest of the guys. I can’t tell they really enjoy working with him and he’s such a passionate guy. He and V man are great additions to the band.
Dreams can come true! Right on, Jay is a rock star, Slipknot, yes!
I'm just going to say that Not only did Jay live up to Joeys talent. He surpassed it. The way Jay played on The Grey Chapter was fucking phenomenal and he deserves his place in the band.
Joey set the bar high. All the best to your journey Jay.
He's a beast I thought Joey was back with all out life but nah it's this guy! Keep rocking man!
He has got so good over the years. Went from blast beats to rudimental awesomeness
Been a fan of Slipknot since '99! Jay Weinberg and Ray Luzier (Korn) are my favorite drummers and neither of them were original members of their bands! 👍
lol
I think he's the only guy that could've replaced Joey, just because of his perspective, talent and journey. He's awesome
My thoughts exactly.
Jay and Joey are not comparable to each other because they both have their own style. And it's at a really high level. Each one is the best in their own way, and Jay has actually done a fantastic job taking Joey's place with his way of playing the drums."
Jay it's such a great guy, i had the pleasure to meet him a few minutes and surprise me how humble is, he deserve live his dream.
can't wait to see you play, man!!
Great video more like this plis!! We want to know more about Jay and the band!!!
You'd have to get in contact with whoever makes the other questions guys stuff
Kid with a dream and now jay live his dreams proud of you we will se you in Hungary 26.6.2019 :)
Magyar vagy?XD
Im not magyar are u stupid..
Im proud of him brother cant wait to see him live in HU
I'm a drummer and for what it's worth this man is truly amazing. Why look back when we are only going forward. One of the best drummers out there today .
how can you not love this man?????
Jay is an inspiration to me as a practising Drummer. 🙏✌️🤘☠️🏴🇦🇺
Congrats Jay weinberg! I would say you're the best drummer at the moment.
Mario Duplantier is phenomenal too
Good drum brand to be able to take the abuse he gives them. Met those guys at NAMM a couple years ago and they’re very down to earth. Always looking out for the “little guy” drumming in the bar every night, yet can furnish kits to Jay’s level all day.
Just good all around.
This made me appreciate Jay just a little bit more 🤘
He's living the dream, good for him! I'm looking reward to seeing them live for the first time at Aftershock.
You are awesome, Jay Weinberg. Keep going. 🤘❤️
Such a humble dude, really cool to see. Phenomenal player as well.
I was already excited to see Slipknot play in MI coming up here soon. But after seeing this and following Jay for a while on Instagram, I'm just so damn excited to see this dude give it his all at the show. Seems like a great fuckin guy and I'm gonna scream that much harder for em.
The new drummer fits much better.
Such dynamics, such speed, fluency, precision. The guy is an absolute monster.
I’m pretty sure Slipknot fans that have been listening to them since the first album are still use to hearing Joey’s drumming because of how he really killed it on the drum set and how he introduced a new form of fast, heavy, and amazing style of drumming that no one had ever seen. But do I believe that Jay is a great drummer? Hell yeah. Is he up to par with Joey? I think he will be when Jay earns Joey’s number. And who knows if somehow they want Joey back for a specific reason then Slipknot is still gonna be as great as they are right now.
I LOVE the way he talks about the band!! Slipknot is the greatest band, and this is one of the reasons.
That's crazy that he barley played any slipknot songs when he got asked to be in the band, he's a pure natural. That makes me not want to give up with the slipknot songs I'm struggling to play lol.
I miss Hesitation Wounds so fucking much (his old band), but I'm glad he's enjoying his time with Slipknot
I mean I was heartbroken that Joey was out but honestly jay is a truly amazing drummer. I couldn’t be happier with the replacement that they found.
Incredible. Extremely motivating and encouraging. Love this!
Jay we are very Pleased with you
He’s done an amazing job. Brilliant drummer.
He deserves his place completely 🤟🏼👏🏻I just confirmed it one more time. And no comparisons with another ex-member of group... They are just both amazing, each of them is/was doing their best and walking his own way 🙏🏼no unnecessary comparison
This shows that dreams can come true. Thanks for that, Jay!
0:55 - 1:04 that whole segment of them performing Sarcastrophe live... PURE GOLD
Can't wait to see these guys in August here in Bonner springs, KS.
Great drummer. Ended up meeting him at a Neurosis show a few years ago. He's got great taste too.
Mate, such an amazing story. Gratz and see ya on tour! I salute you maggots!
Now this is a fucking short documentary done perfectly.
I know this album isn’t the band’s favorite but .5 is my favorite sounding album Slipknot has. The mix and especially the drums are just so brutal and the riffs so catchy. Makes a great combo.
Love that "U play the drumms as it owes you 💰"🖤🤘🏻
