Jay Weinberg says he’s “not ready yet” to talk about leaving Slipknot: “I have a fantastic therapist who helps me”
Slipknot drummer Jay Weinberg has opened up about mentally processing his exit from Slipknot.During an appearance on an episode of the One Life One Chance With Toby Morse podcast, the current Suicidal Tendencies drummer addressed being suddenly fired from Slipknot last year.Last November, after the Iowa band announced the drummer’s departure, Weinberg said he was “heartbroken and blindsided” by the news, and went on to share that despite that, he “wouldn’t trade for the world” his “memories and experiences” with them.“Truth be told, I’m at kind of a point where I’m not quite yet really ready to talk about it, really,” he said (as transcribed by Blabbermouth). “And that’s not to dismiss the conversation, but I’ve spent time, and spend time, just processing the entire experience.“And the experience not being the last six months, but really the last 10 years [of playing with Slipknot].
