Madball part ways with drummer

New York hardcore masters Madball have allegedly parted ways with drummer, Jay Weinberg, midway through their current Canadian tour. The split brings an end to Weinbergs short stint in the band, as you may recall Weinberg joined Madball just a few months back.

Frontman Freddy Crecien made the following statement;

"I'm letting Jay go in Canada because I just feel he doesn't represent this band well on a character level. It would go against my own code of ethics to keep him around. Not saying he's a bad drummer. I won't take that away from him. But the reality is - he has a lot to learn about paying dues, and about life in general. Granted, he is a kid, but I'm not sure that he'll ever be built for this particular lifestyle. I wish him the best of luck, but the Madball machine rolls on!"

A replacement for Weinberg should be announced shortly.
