Modern Drummer had the immense privilege of reuniting with the iconic Max Weinberg in February 2023 amid the Springsteen & E Street Band 2023 Tour. Max graciously provided us with an in-depth look at his tour kit, offering not only a glimpse into its components but also sharing historical anecdotes and valuable advice for drummers, both young and old.
Following Max's insightful presentation, drum tech Matt Payne continued to enlighten us by guiding us through the intricate gear and processes that are integral to supporting Max's stellar performance night after night.
Additionally, we had the pleasure of engaging in a conversation with Troy Milner, the band's trusted monitor engineer. Troy shared insights into the advanced equipment he utilizes to deliver the perfect monitor mix tailored to each band member's unique needs, ensuring a flawless experience for them during every performance.
Head on over to www.moderndrum... to view the September 2023 issue featuring Max & Jay Weinberg!!

He's absolutely right about his support team. Playing for many years in small clubs, where everything in drum world was just me, from set up and break down, to running cables for mics on the kit, to hopping up to grab a tom mic that I knocked out of position, to now being blessed enough to have people help me with all that allowing me to focus more and more on playing the show exclusively has made me a such better drummer. Seriously, if you even have someone who helps you load in to the venue, please, do something nice for them on the regular. Difference makers these guys and ladies.

Having spent years studying with Dom Famularo, Max reminds me a lot of him: the ability to weave personal experience and lessons into a conversation without preaching, the method of talking in one long continuous story, the understanding of what a drummer's role is in regards to supporting the musicians. Maybe I'm projecting because we're all missing Dom and talking about him a lot this week, but this absolutely made me want to hear more from Max and seek out other interviews for more wisdom he may have imparted.

First time I saw Mr Weinberg was on the Conan O'Brien show. It was love at the first sight of his playing. One of my top five favorite drummers among whom I cannot choose the One. Perfect technique, amazing feeling for the music, and those tiny little gems that he does like a perfect fill in for a song (unlike the introductory feeling for "Downbound train", or or what happens against the words "wild wind blowing" in "Cover me"). Plus they reserved smugness (IN the most positive sense of the word) and coolness with which he does all those things. Mr Weinberg, being an amateur drummer myself · I love your playing and the positivity you lose while drumming. ♥️🤩♥️👍👍👍👍🇵🇱🥁

I had a wonderful Experience meeting Max in 1980 at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby P.A. for a local radio station rock auction fund raiser & I won my bid on a Bruce signed River Tourbook & Max was at the auction & he offered me his autograph. Fast forward 40 years I met Max again at his Max Weinberg Jukebox show and took some photos with him. He's one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. I've seen over a 150 Bruce Springsteen and the East Street Band shows, including 9 this year. I am looking forward to many more to come in 2024. It's a wonderful experience. watching Max & Bruce create the magic that is a Bruce Springsteen and The East street band concert. 🥁🎸🎷🎼
