Watch ex-Slipknot drummer Jay Weinberg perform with Infectious Grooves
Slipknot drummer Jay Weinberg returned to the stage with Infectious Grooves earlier this week – watch the official footage below.The musician, who was fired from Slipknot last November, shared a drum-cam video of himself behind the kit for ‘Monster Skank’ from the funk-metal supergroup’s show at Bluesfest in Byron Bay, Australia on Monday (April 1).Formed more than 30 years ago, Infectious Grooves includes Metallica bassist Robert Trujillo and his Suicidal Tendencies bandmate Mike Muir.Weinberg made his live debut with the outfit in California on March 23, which marked their first gig since 2019.During a recent interview with Metal-Roos, Muir explained how Weinberg ended up joining Infectious Grooves in January of this year (via Blabbermouth).“We wanted to get somebody that you know could carry that torch and was there,” he said. “It’s funny ’cause we were kind of saying… well, I told Robert, ‘You put a list [of drummers] together, I’ll put a list together and then we’ll kind of see who’s touring and who’s available and try to do it’.”Muir continued: “And my middle son, who’s 14, was asking, he goes, ‘If Brooks [Wackerman] can’t do it, who are you gonna get to play drums?’ And I’m, like, ‘We’re not sure. We’re putting a list together’.

Slipknot tease mystery new drummer in rehearsal photo
Slipknot have begun teasing a mystery new drummer with a post online.The metal icons hinted about the identity of the new member with a new photo on social media, following the abrupt departure of Jay Weinberg last November.Shared on Saturday (November 9), the band uploaded a photo of a single broken drumstick on Instagram with the caption “Rehearsal.” – suggesting that a replacement for Weinberg has been secured.At time of writing, there has been no official confirmation about who the new drummer will be, although it is set to be announced soon as the band are set to play their first show of the year at Sick New World on April 27.A post shared by Slipknot (@slipknot)While no one has been announced as the new sticksman yet, many fans have weighed their thoughts on who they think the new member is, with one of the most popular suggestions being former Sepultura drummer Eloy Casagrande.The possibility of this comes following news last month that the legendary Brazilian metal band had parted ways with the longtime member ahead of their final world tour.Sharing the update on social media on February 27, Casagrande said that the decision “needed to be made thinking about new cycles that will come” following the band’s impending split after four decades.Eagle-eyed fans have also pieced together that the Promark brand of the drumstick pictured on Slipknot’s post is also the same type used by the former Sepultura member – heightening rumours that he is the latest addition to the line-up.The decision to split from Jay Weinberg came in December of last year, when Slipknot shared an official statement on social media, claiming that they were “intent on evolving”, and made the “creative decision” to have him leave the band.
