DescripciĂłn

Episode 25 of Behind The Kit features a conversation I’ve been incredibly excited to share — sitting down with the one and only @JayWeinberg! Known for his explosive energy, precision, and unmistakable intensity behind the kit, Jay has built an incredible career performing with legendary bands like @Slipknot and @SuicidalTendencies. His playing combines power, endurance, musicality, and passion in a way that has made him one of the most respected drummers in modern rock and metal. In this conversation, we dive deep into Jay’s journey behind the kit — from his early influences and developing his identity as a drummer to stepping into some of the biggest gigs in rock music. We talk about preparation, mindset, discipline, creativity, the emotional side of performing, and what it truly takes to sustain a career at the highest level of the music industry. This episode isn’t just about speed, technique, or heavy music — it’s about dedication, resilience, authenticity, and pursuing your craft with everything you have. Season 2 continues to grow through honest, inspiring conversations like this one, and I’m beyond grateful to bring Jay’s story to the Behind The Kit community. Thank you for being here, and thank you for supporting Behind The Kit. đŸ„

Episode 26 of Behind The Kit features a conversation I’ve been incredibly excited to share — sitting down with my good friend, the one and only David Nester! David is a highly respected drummer and drum tech who has spent years working behind the scenes with some of the biggest names in rock and metal, including @Disturbed, @SystemOfADown, @SeetherOfficial, and @IPrevailBand. In addition to his work as a world-class tech, David also spent many years as the drummer for ENMY, bringing his own powerful style and musicality to the stage night after night. This conversation was especially meaningful for me because David and I have become close friends over the years, and getting the opportunity to sit down and share his story with the Behind The Kit community was truly an honor. In this episode, we dive deep into the realities of life both behind the drum kit and behind the scenes. We talk about the demanding world of drum teching at the highest level, the importance of professionalism and preparation, balancing creativity with consistency, touring life, relationships within the industry, and what it really takes to build a sustainable career in music. This episode isn’t just about drums — it’s about passion, hard work, loyalty, friendship, and the countless unseen hours that go into making live music happen at the highest level. Season 2 continues to grow through honest, powerful conversations like this one, and I’m incredibly grateful to bring David’s story to the Behind The Kit community.
